The Florida one will never go away while steven is still alive. Steven Spielberg told them they would lose Jurassic Park license if they remove ET in Orlando.
My Parents took me to Universal Studios in 1994. I was so excited because I knew that was the E.T., ride was! The day we get there is this really long line of people waiting. I get in line with them & then the worse news came over the loud speaker! “The E.T., ride will be closed due to technical difficulties.” I was totally bummed out by that announcement & have never been on that ride to this day.
Having never been to a Universal park, I appreciate that the Orlando version is still open! Means people like me still have the opportunity to experience a classic from that era
love the ET ride in Orlando. every time i go i ride it. love the smell of the que Forrest. yes it old and outdated but that's the fun of it. brings me back to childhood. one ride i really do miss is twister at universal orlando. i loved that ride, well walk thru i guess.
I was so sad when I went back with my uncle and found that E.T. was gone. The Mummy rollercoaster sucks! Even some of the Universal employees stated that they wished it had been left alone.
i absolutely love E.T. Adventure, i actually consider it better than Peter Pan's Flight. a little interesting fact is that in the Florida version of Revenge of the Mummy, there's a gold King Kong statue instead of the gold E.T. statue.
I clicked this in panic, thinking this was about Florida… then I saw the comments. 😂😮💨 E.T. is now the last remaining theme park spot where I can really go back to being a child again for a few minutes… I want NOTHING to happen to it. 😭 /fingers TIGHTEN on my Green Planet passports that the employees gave me to keep for nearly breaking the ride record, hugs my life sized talking E.T. doll with Henry Thomas’ autograph even TIGHTER/ 😭😭😭😭😭😭
So glad Orlando's version is still open. The last of the original opening day attractions there. And I'm with Spielberg all the way on keeping it open. It's a classic ride based off a classic movie. Every time I walk in with the queue in the woods... it's just a breath of nostalgia and wonder! Real shame Hollywood's park closed it. It didn't seem like a good trade off. It would explain why Florida's version of Revenge of the Mummy was better, considering they had a much bigger building to work with.
I barely remember this ride, but I did ride it once, @ Universal Studios Hollywood. The ET ride was ok; its replacement is profoundly better. The Mummy's the shizzle.
I think they should retheme Revenge of the Mummy into Universal Monsters the reason why is that they can keep the Mummy character but they can have other characters like Dracula, Frankenstein, The Wolfman, and my favorite the Invisible Man also is this E.T. Adventure at Universal Studios Hollywood or Japan
I'd like to see the invisible man show up in a ride. I remember going to a theatrical version of the story when I was a kid and it was impressive the way they were able to make him seemingly disappear in front of our eyes as he removed the clothing to reveal black clothes underneath it.
What was it like? I have always been wondering what was it like and what made it so different from Orlando’s counterpart? Obviously I wish this attraction was still there in Hollywood. Once universal removed Jurassic park and re theme it to Jurassic world, that was the final straw. All 90’s representation of universal is (almost) gone now. And it’s sad to see how universal sticks to the more lately ips. When I looked at videos, the attraction looked like the ride was still in shape for another decade or two.
@@FM7Studioswait! Do you mean that they torn apart all of the animatronics and used them for other attractions or just for the Orlando counterpart? Cause if they scatter the parts throughout Orlando then that’s just sad.
@@FM7Studios I see no reason to ever remove it. The movie is over 40 years old and if it were going to slip out of the public consciousness enough to warrant removal, that likely would have happened by now. I'd like to see them update the animatronic people, but for the most part, I don't see anything that really cries out for an upgrade. The ride system itself should be something that they can renovate and replace as needed as it's not a particularly complicated ride mechanic.
@@MC-kg5gzbro universal owns FNAF now because they made the movie. Disney has nothing to do with FNAF so I definitely think that was never an option when they rethemed splash mountain.
I’m more referring to the aesthetics. especially after the new osha guidelines, splash operated in a way reminiscent of 5naf. If you experienced or were aware of 5naf before splash and country bears, that would affect how you perceived them.

Yes, I’m so happy it still exists!
@@ThemeParkOgre it's definitely worth riding, it's held up pretty well over the years and the theming for the line is very good.
@@SmallSpoonBrigade Looks awesome, can't wait to ride it some day. Hopefully next year!
The last ET ride left in the world !
I think Steven Spielberg still has a contract with universal studios that they can’t the ride down in Orlando
I LOVE this ride in Florida.
A lot of people say it's dated and needs to go. But I still love it to death. Much better than Peter Pan's Flight
@@RayBcv1030 It needs to stay, it holds so much history for that park!
I wouldn't mind a little bit of a refresh in terms of the animatronic people, but most of the rest of the ride holds up quite well.
@@FM7Studios JAWS, Kongfrontation, and Back to the Future (at least ab updated version) should have all remained staple attractions for the park.
It does need a update but I don't think they need to Get rid of it
Hmm its still in Florida Steven Speilberg said he would never work with Universal again if they got rid of it in Florida
Honestly they should bring it back to Hollywood
@@rockman8501 I agree!
Man I’m sad the ride is only in Orlando I wish it stayed at Hollywood and japan
Same here, I wish the other versions stayed!
Funny how universal Florida has been building around the ride and making changes to the area without touching it
@@kingtryton All thanks to Spielberg and his obsession with keeping the Florida ride going! :)

Check out the Florida one - same budget but somehow 1000x better
I loved that ride back in the day. Glad it still exists.
@@wowmartiean same here!
Oh man, I remember going on this in 1994. ET saying good bye to me by name freaked me out, I had not expected it.

@@superbubsymariobobcat1097 That would be great to bring up in a future Kongfrontation video! 🦍

I love both in fact I was scared of Et for a long time in my childhood and refused to go on it the first time I went
I’m sure most people know this but you can buy the E.T scent from the ride, that lovely smell of the woods whilst you queue 😊

I rode it in a couple of months ago its pretty cool

This is the best ride at UO

Does anyone have a video of the Ride?
I actually have footage of the golden ET in the treasure room at Hollywood. If you want fluffy, I can DM you the footage on Twitter
@@shawnthegangster4207 I would love that!

I wonder where the animatronics are.
@@patricksavage1405 most of them were shipped to Florida for spare parts.
@@FM7Studioswait! Do you mean that they torn apart all of the animatronics and used them for other attractions or just for the Orlando counterpart? Cause if they scatter the parts throughout Orlando then that’s just sad.
Also do you mean that some of them were sold off to private owners and/or were decaying like botanicus or are some of them shredded to pieces?
That’s just sad! Why did they have to sell everything else and/or rip everything apart and throw it away?!
Still my favorite Universal ride of all time! #ETForever
I don’t believe that E.T. Adventure will be gone forever
@@christopherrichards2350 hope you’re right!

The Californians be gone
@@SpanishBear1994 Correct! :(
it opened in 1991
And closed in 2003. Spanning 11, (almost 12) years of the attraction.
Bro, I’m at Universal right now and I literally went on the ride yesterday
@@TheSunshnegirl So glad it’s still in Florida!
What are they gonna replace it with?
The Hollywood version was replaced with Revenge of the Mummy! :)
bad audio mix
first to comment
I hope they changed this ride to FNAF
The ride was replaced with Revenge of the Mummy! :)
I mean that will only happen if universal doesn’t care about Spielberg or when Spielberg dies but that’s a pretty good idea
I think the theme park biz might be a little hesitant to delve there. I’m sure fnaf was a factor in splash mountain closing.
