Riding Your Way Through Epic Universe

'I hope you have an epic experience,' my Lyft driver said with a bit of an ironically cheerful tone as he dropped me off at Universal's Epic Universe in Orlando, Fla. No worries. I was already primed to do just that. I had been reading about the park for the last couple of years, looking over designs, watching construction videos, imagining the worlds and anticipating the works. Now, I was on a mission. I booked two days at the park in June, only two weeks after its official May 22 opening, to experience each of its 11 rides and see if they lived up to what my imagination was conjuring. Here, the eight that I found worthy of attention, based on the ride experience, consistency of theming and just sheer fun. Surprise Favorite How to Train Your Dragon — Isle of Berk As a roller coaster nerd, I went in expecting that I would be most wowed by the park's aggressive signature coaster, Stardust Racers. But I was even more taken by a family coaster in the How to Train Your Dragon — Isle of Berk section. Hiccup's Wing Gliders is a pleasure from beginning to end. I love a well-thought-out themed coaster and this one has fun little tidbits all along the journey. I had a smile on my face the whole time. The concept is that the character Hiccup, from the 'How to Train Your Dragon' movies, has built a flying machine that helps Vikings (like you) soar. You encounter him and the dragon Toothless in animatronic form early on, then Toothless presses a button with his paw (adorable) and launches you into the main part of the ride. There are some delightful weightless moments, and the track weaves its way across green landscapes, directly over water (with impressive splash effects), into a tunnel and through mist. It even has a moment involving some hatching dragon eggs in which the ride goes briefly in reverse before launching you again. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

Epic Universe Will Portal Into Your House With a TV Special

Journey through the portals of Universal Epic Universe in an upcoming one-hour NBC special hosted by Joe Manganiello (One Piece). Inside the Worlds of Epic Universe will take viewers on a tour of America's newest state-of-the-art theme park, which features lands based on How to Train Your Dragon, Nintendo, the Universal Monsters, and Harry Potter. io9 got to visit earlier this year and can't wait to see the park again, even through the television screen. We're especially excited to return to the grounds of Darkmoor. If there's any sort of POV walk-through (much like the other park), that would be very neat. And even if the TV special is a thinly veiled advertisement to entice more visitors, we don't mind. In fact, we have some suggestions for future shows in this vein: how about an after-dark stroll through Dark Universe's spooky ambiance set to that epic Danny Elfman score to watch whenever we need a hit of immersive Universal Horror? What we do know so far about the special is that it will follow Manganiello experiencing Celestial Park, the Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic, Super Nintendo World, How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, and Dark Universe. 'As a kid growing up a huge fan of the movies, I couldn't be more excited about diving into these immersive worlds that bring some of my all-time favorite characters to life,' Manganiello shared in the press release. 'From the iconic monsters of Dark Universe to the super-sized attractions of How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, there is something for everyone to enjoy.' Additionally, Universal family stars and creatives will stop by, including Bowen Yang (Wicked), Bryce Dallas Howard (Jurassic World franchise), Jon M. Chu (Wicked), Mason Thames (How to Train Your Dragon), Matt Rogers, Michelle Yeoh (Wicked), Nico Parker (How to Train Your Dragon), Warwick Davis, and Vin Diesel. We have to note that's a lot of Wicked stars so we'd be happy if they finally announced a Wicked Oz portal, just sayin'. Plus our movie father, Steven Spielberg, will be featured in an extended interview about the cinematic worlds of Universal theme parks. Inside the Worlds of Epic Universe will air Wednesday, August 20 at 9 p.m. ET/PT and will be available to stream the next day on Peacock. Later this year, fans can look for Epic Ride: The Story of Universal Theme Parks, a three-part Peacock docuseries. For more info on booking a trip to the park visit here. Want more io9 news?
