Cutting back and extracting more profits is not a viable long-term strategy, not when there is a Mouse nearby that is much scarier than any shark.
ouch. I've never been to US FL. and if half of what this guy says is true, I'll never go there, even to check it out. unless they fix it up, that is. then maybe I'll take a day or 2 and go over there.

js3901... I think its worth a trip over.
I never liked Universal.. just to drab, but Men In Black is cool.
IOA is very cool. They did an excellent job of themeing. Spiderman is still a kick butt ride. And the Hulk is a top notch coaster.
But if you go to Disney once a year, or more, you start skipping Universal, and go every couple of years. Well at least I do...
They just need to realize that to complete you need to constantly add a reason for people to visit.

Yeah I read that and believe me LOL really describes it in a nutshell, they hit the nail head on, in that one. I guess Universal should apply that directly to their forehead.

Looks like the general public agrees since the are lagging way behind Disney and behind Sea World in attendance.
Wake up Universal!

IOA's roller coasters still are kicking!!! You've got to love the way they themed Dualing Dragons, Spinderman is one of the most amazing rides I've ever been on!! US is kinda stale, but they do have The Mummy.
Our sons are now teenagers so we make the trip over there for the coasters.

We personally like it but you just can't even compare it to Disney. Haven't been in about 4 years but we'll visit again this summer.
