    There are great prices on tickets for military and retired military. I buy mine from Shades of Green.

    I can’t answer for non-fans, but if you enjoy the books and (especially) the movies, then trust me when I tell you that the experience is absolutely worth it. There are levels upon levels of details to see, hidden corridors to explore, just so much to take in. I agree that if you look at just the price related only to Harry Potter then it seems expensive, but to me that’s backward. Buying a park to park ticket gets you into both Universal lands, with all that they have to offer. Getting to experience the world of Harry Potter is a total bonus!

    Island of Adventure is better when it comes to rides hands down. Universal Studios is more lay back and chill. But I always love to do both parks, start off with IOA and then go to US to chill out.

    Thank you for mentioning the virtual queue🤯. If I purchased the early entry, do I still need to sign up for the virtual queue? Or will this guarantee my entry to the land at that time? I would think so since based on the calendar to purchase it there were some crossed off dates, but want to confirm 😬.

    You really need batman level prep to conquer disney. This is not a resort where you think you can stroll in whenever and do what you want to get done. Messing with genie plus and getting the rides you want at preferred times is like a riddler challenge from the batman arkham games. You need extensive knowledge of which rides to prioritize, which lightning lanes sell out fastest, and understanding of which ride systems that are prone to downtime. And not to mention individual lightning lanes and fitting in virtual queues where you have no control over when that is, which can interfere with your plans.

    Clickbait, why does the title say WORST rides not overhyped?! LOL! Jimmy Fallon is not #1 worst or over hyped, its a great ride and VERY well done for those who like the motion simulated rides! Men is Black is the worst ride! Minions is motion simulated, but it sicks because when you're not in the very first row, it doesn't even feel like you're IN the ride. That's the difference with the Jimmy Fallon ride. So which is it? Worst or overhyped?!

    I just rode the Hulk yesterday and it would be a great ride if it wasn't so rocky. It was miserable through out the whole ride. I was in the very middle so that's probably why it wasn't smooth but it was not enjoyable at all. I want to do it again in the very front and see if it's any different.
