Universal Studios Destroys Walt Disney World Theme Parks Now!

I recently went back to the Disney World theme parks and for the first time, was unimpressed. Disney has done virtually nothing to bring their parks up-to-date with the times. Meanwhile, Universal Studios has built 2 incredible parks and has Epic Universe in development for 2025! I give plenty of pros and cons for these theme parks and would love to hear from you as well!

    As someone who specializes in Disney Parks I loved hearing your rant in Genie Plus. It’s a terrible system and even worse was the previous system worked perfectly and it was only changed to get a quick cash grab from desperate families who don’t want to wait in the lines

    Also at 16:55 you say it’s been here since the 90’s but it literally was made 3 years ago. Disney has became super cheap the past few years and usually creates stuff the cheaper way for the theme parks to save money for the entire company.

    Just wait until epic universe opens if you think universal is better now. The back to the future ride was amazing. I’m still upset they got rid of it for the simpsons. The original King Kong ride was terrifying as a kid. The new one is pretty good though. At least the first time.

    I went to Disney and Universal January 2022 as my dad and I did the Disney Marathon. Which was the most fun out of the 3 days we were at Disney. But this is how I explain Disney to people. It’s essentially a giant mall with an expensive entrance fee. Universal all the way. Like why can’t Disney make another park for older age. Especially since they have fox (aliens, predator, other stuff).

    The family and I went to Universal last year and loved it. We liked way better than Disney. The express pass there is the bomb! If you stay at a Universal Hotel it is part of the package which is nice. We loved ET too! It felt so nostalgic and well done. Also Adam, if you and the family go back and it’s hot weather, I highly recommend the Universal water park Volcano Bay. That was a great break in the action from the theme parks and a lot of fun.

Used a travel agent for our first Universal trip but she didn’t specialize in the theme parks so couldn’t give us pointers (but I knew that when I reached out to her too, I like doing my own research where I can). Biggest thing for me in the Disney vs Universal comparison of our personal trips was Disney you HAVE to plan further out in advance if you want to the full magical experience (haven’t had to do genie+ so I can’t speak to that but it doesn’t seem appealing to me). For our Universal trip we literally decided what we wanted to have for dinner day of and booked it that afternoon and was able to cancel/change easily if we were running late or changed our minds.

    24:05 The Jurassic Park area also has the river adventure and another ride for the kids called Pteranadon Flyers. It definitely feels like your luck was kind if bad if Kong was delayed 4 times in a day, but I guess that sometimes happens. When I went the last couple of times, I have had experiences with delays, but they were pretty nuch kind of quick. I can list sime of the delays. One that I remember is the Cat in thd Hat was delayed, so we went to One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish, and by the time we were done with that ride, the Cat in the Hat was running again. Another ride i have experienced a delay with in the same park was Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey. I was in the queue when they played an announcement that it had a brief delay and luckily in about 5 minutes or less it was back up and they made a new announcement saying it was open again. Those are really the only experience I have had with delays at Universal. Maybe when I was on the app I would see a ride delay, but usually when I checked it again it was running.

    It's true that Universal has really improved over the years with additions like the Velocicoaster. In the beginning, the day they really scared Disney was when they beat them out for the contract to build a Harry Potter land. However, I cannot wait for Epic Universal to open. It could spell doom for Disney because looking at this year's crowd projections vs reality, July 4 was supposed to be the biggest day of the month for Disney. However, video after video showed a park that was half full. Disney is failing and Bob Eager Beaver just can't hack it. He really should be fired but I guess the shareholders think his crazy mismanagement is worth it. They still seem to enjoy living with their heads buried in the ground...

    Unlike Di$ney Universal wants everyone to be able to have a chance to ride the new and/or most hottest ride on property. I think that is better than to ask of a huge upcharge so only the 1% can ride it. When demand goes down it will be added to the service. I think that is perfect as those front in line passes are very expensive but also aren't very limited (unlike Disney) or you can get the pass free when you stay at 1 of their premium resorts.

From the POV it doesn't look that crazy but when you're on it it sure is. Also that thing has a ridiculously high throughput, the line is always moving so it really doesn't feel as long as it otherwise would. Even still, if you're outside the main building in the outdoor queue, you can still get on the ride in like 30 to 45 mins. Absolutely crazy in a good way.

    My family and I went to both Universal and Disney over the last two years and I agree that Hollywood Studios is probably the worst one (and to be honest everyone just goes there for Star Wars). We had a pretty crappy time at animal kingdom since we had to wait for like 1-3 hours each and every ride in the humid Florida summer with no shade at all. The immersive Avatar ride was awesome however and the nature and fake nature were also really beautiful. Magic kingdom is probably my favorite since the day we went, we had short lines, low temps and I thought most of all the rides were very nostalgic and well made (even though I thought my head might get lopped off on space mountain). I love Epcot for the science and culture too. I can see where you come from with Universal, they do seem to care more and put in more effort but I think I just generally prefer realistic rides over the 3D ones. Idk I think Disney should update some things but I’d like them to keep a few of the good old rides. Keep up the great work Adam, your channel is amazing and you’re one of the few creators that actually give an honest opinion or perspective and I appreciate you and what you do.

    I’m a disney fan but your review was spot on. I’ve never been to Universal and I was nervous about going there over Disney. After watching this, you’ve convinced me to give Universal a shot.

    Does anyone know of any plans -- announced or rumored -- regarding new, major attractions being added to either the Universal Studios Florida or Islands of Adventure theme parks between now and 2025? I realize that UEU is on the horizon. But the description of this video claims "Disney has done virtually nothing to bring their parks up-to-date with the times". So, what is comin to USF and IOA to keep them "up-to-date with the times"?

    I appreciate your opinion and agree on some things, however I think your being a little unfair about the “new” stuff at Disney. They have a ton of new stuff. Ratatouille and guardians coaster just opened at Epcot. Tron coaster is opening at magic kingdom. Galaxies edge and Toy Story land, runaway railway.. tons of new rides. Part of magic kingdoms charm is the old classics. Ppl still love Peter Pan’s flight even tho it’s old because it’s a original ride that walt wanted. Same with pirates. I fully respect if u think they are boring, but I absolutely love them

    I'm more of a meat and potatoes guy when it comes to amusement park rides.Cedar Point, Knotts Berry Farms, and even Six Flags are always a better time than anything from Disney or Universal. I thought Disney parks were lame in my pre teens. Universal is better than Disney by far basically because they have more 3-D rides. In my opinion nothing is better than a physical roller coaster ride that's traveling a 100 miles an hour. You can keep all that studio themed crap.

The food as more akin to The Cheesecake Factory quality which is solid for sure in a theme park and the price wasn't to shabby at all. That was a good experience and I 100% agree Universal is better. Universal is like a kid who really really has to try to be great and Disney is like a kid who was once talented who is heavily resting on past accomplishments for years ago.

    The last time I went to a Disney park was Hollywood studios in September right after they stopped doing times for Rise of the Resistance and before genie+ and lightning lane started and had a blast. Wait times where low and got on Rise 3 times. Have zero interest going back with the genie+ in place it seems like a miserable experience. I'll continue staying at Royal Pacific for the express pass during the day and doing HHN select nights. Mixing in a day at volcano bay and Sea World during my week stay.
