      I think that the edginess of many Universal rides (especially when compared to Disney’s) has been building up from the opening of Universal Studios Florida to Dark Universe. They’ve shown time and time again that they aren’t afraid of a little thrill and it’s worked in being a good introduction for young kids and teenagers to this type of entertainment.

    I really think the new characters are an important step. Two of Disney's best loved attractions were non-IP... at least until recently... in Haunted Mansion and Pirates. Neither had anything to do with a movie when they were built. They were tributes to their respective genres and didn't need an IP to make them good.
    Dark Universe is going the same route, and I appreciate it deeply. If I have one concern, it's that I'm praying they're able to keep up the character interaction as it's being described and don't let it fall off like Disney has with the environment of Batuu. I don't expect them to maintain a constant LARP or anything, but keeping this land 'living' (or unliving?) is likely to prove challenging, though extremely rewarding if they manage it.

    • @DreamportProductions
      @DreamportProductions  3 месяца назад +3

      This is true. I agree in that I don’t really expect the super intense level of character interactions and I don’t really want that. It can make things so…convoluted. I just hope that whether it’s monsters or villagers, this land is kinetic with characters and things going on.

    @Ihartwalrusguy 3 месяца назад +14

    I’m pretty sure that if Disney ever unveils that Villains land as part of the beyond Big Thunder Mountain Expansion, it would be compared to Dark Universe since both parks target different audiences.
    The Disney Villains, while most spin-offs seem to target older audiences, is still at the end of the day a Disney property, so it can’t be too scary for families, hence why we’re never gonna get a roller coaster thrill ride themed to Chernabog, just another dark ride.
    Universal, meanwhile, seems to take risks here with Dark Universe, especially for children, who would probably see this land as “cool” instead of “scary”.

    • @DreamportProductions
      @DreamportProductions  3 месяца назад +6

      I think this is one of the key reasons why Dark Universe is so unique as a land concept. They make it known that while it’s not gonna go overboard, it’s purposely a little more edgy than most other lands Universal has done. Honestly, I think it’ll carry a similar tone to Revenge of the Mummy.

      Thing is, there will inevitably be some small kids who do find Dark Universe too scary. And that’s okay! There’s tons of family attractions in the rest of the park they can go to. Meanwhile the people that really love the horror-vibe have a whole land themed around it. That’s what Disney needs to understand.
      It’s not too different from having rides with a higher height requirement. If anything, those encourage families to return since although kids get frustrated at not being able to ride everything, they feel like they’re working towards something as they get older. So as long as there’s a good balance of different types of attractions available, everyone should be able to have a good time at the parks.

    IMO - the mistakes this monster ride has is puzzling. -- 1) It should have been muted colors with mostly B&W - greys / browns. Instead they show the monsters in color. -- 2) The designs of Phantom and Gillman - are TERRIBLE. How can Universal allow these designs to occur? -- 3) The ride takes place in catacombs - and is basically Spiderman meets Gringotts Bank meets Transformers the ride. HORRIBLE to turn "monsters" into another video game battle fight. --- THIS RIDE should have been exploring the mansion, crypts and moat etc.. This should have been a build suspence and scare - and finishing with a major wow - drop factor.

    The land is probably most anticipated and surprisingly the haters are beginning to come out. There the anti woke crowd jumping on the Victoria Frankenstein bit which I kind of expected. But also some complaining about modernizing the monsters for todays audiences and saying it’s an insult to the original films

    • @DreamportProductions
      @DreamportProductions  3 месяца назад

      For me, I understand the criticism towards changing the monsters even though I think this change is necessary to keep them relevant. I love those original films and they’re still there in a few places at Universal Orlando (rip Monsters Cafe 😢) but this new version is gonna bring so many new fans back to the classics. It also seems to be respecting the legacy and story of those films by acting as a continuation of the original movies. As far as the other surface level criticism that has nothing to do with the actual direction of the land, I could care less.

    I've made a rule where I won't be watching any rides on RUclips before visiting Epic Universe. However, as someone who isn't a massive fan of really scary stuff, I think I'm going to break this for Monsters Unchained. I feel I would enjoy the ride much more if I knew what was coming in terms of "scary moments."
    So hyped for Epic Universe, all 4 lands sound sooo good! Having a Dark Universe is just perfect as it will be a great way to get a sense of the whole atmosphere of Epic. The fun feel of Mario and the scary feel if Dark is gonna be awesome!

    • @DreamportProductions
      @DreamportProductions  3 месяца назад

      To me, it’s what their doing with the IP. Universal Monsters have always had a place as an IP but they haven’t been THE big property in ANY of the Universal Parks for many many years. Unlike Potter or Nintendo which have already had their success laid out for them with previous installments, this is a big risk, especially considering their target audience with this park. The IP is successful enough that people will be curious because the movies are culturally relevant and have been for a long long time but also has room for them to grow and add to it. Wasn’t sure about your question, so hopefully this cleared things up?

      I think the dragon land is a perfect choice. Maybe you just don’t like the IP or are upset that it’s a land aimed towards children? Because I think it’s extremely creative. Designing the entire isle of Berk, roaming dragons, dragon drones possibly flying through the sky, an in universe timeline in which it takes place. Plus dragons have always been a big part of universal (dueling dragons and Harry Potter). I think it’s a perfect choice

    I'm already not a fan & disappointed on this land. They screwed it up immensely already. They had to mess with a classic & not leave the monsters as they were. They revamped the monsters & modernized them making them look terrible. Why can't they ever make them look as they did in their films. This land may have cool effects & a dark ride, but the merchandise & the monsters will be trash. Sidenote stop snubbing all the other Universal Monster films like Invisible man, Hunchback, Mole People, Metaluna Mutant, bring them all in if not through merchandise, lastly stop screwing up the Wolfman & his image & merchandise so over it

      Totally understand this take! I’m a fan because of how different it is but there’s a case to be made that because those films are SO iconic, those are the definitive Universal interpretations of the characters. Were you a fan of how they were utilized at HHN, because they were changed quite a bit to fit into those houses?

      @@DreamportProductions thank you for understanding my view point even if it did come off like an entitled fanboy/crotchety old man lol,
      I didn't hate or love the interpretation of them during HHN, I was neutral, I felt they had their merit & loved some portrayals, like Jekyll & Hyde was beautifully done, the Invisible man was amazing. But I feel the others fell short. The Wolfman is always being screwed up when Lon Chaney Jr made it look so good with the help of Jack Pierce's talented makeup fx, I wish they respected that. The Wolfman I felt was a cross of the modern film with Anthony Hopkins, & Lon's version & a touch of An American Werewolf in London for good measure. Frankenstein was so humanized yet grotesque in the original with Karloff, leave him as such.
      My final gripe is Universal for their anniversary should release a definitive collection of all their Sci-fi & horror classics even down to the Hunchback with Chaney Sr.
