USH - The Simpsons Ride Area - Under Construction - 2-8-08

[awesomelegofan2]

i went there!!

[TheCrazyCoasterKid]

I never noticed how big the building was. Why do they need a giant building for a simulator?

[StarWarsDork]

@TheCrazyCoasterKid Because it's a giant simulator.

[McMikeMouse]

@StarWarsDork and there are far more then just one, also you need to be able to fit as many guests on it at a time as you possibly can.

[billie1564]

i love this ride

[sonicmariofan100]

that was the back to future ride i never got on back to the future ride

[richardconter]

giant gorilla!n i remember that when i was 3! it was scary

[StarWarsDork]

King Kong burnt down last Summer during the backlot fire. It will not be rebuilt.

[StarWarsDork]

They are now building a new King Kong attraction on a different park of the back lot. Opens Summer 2010

[TinaMarie1010]

Thanks for posting these videos. I enjoy watching them. I also like how you add Simpson songs and sayings from the show in these clips. I can't wait to go there in August later this year!

[MarioKHFan1993]

0:36 Thought that guy was a statue O.O

[Elmowood]

thatz k0ol mines expires on September 2009

[simpsonsman192]

Have you heard any update about the transformers ride in Hollywood?

[StarWarsDork]

No word yet.

[Elmowood]

ur pass expires next month feb.or wen did u get it?

[StarWarsDork]

My pass now expires in August of 2010. :)

[Gontor08]

Wheres Apu???? it would be the funny but weird if they put and Indian at the market =P

I want to go -_-

[simpsonsman192]

I mean that if any guys were working on the building if you can see them.

[simpsonsman192]

If you saw any construction workers, What were they doing on that day?

[StarWarsDork]

Constructing.

[simpsonsman192]

But how about the area were there's no wall,like where you recorded how the ride looks like on your second video, Is there a wall there or not? cuase even when your going to the universal starway ,you should have continued recording cause there's no wall right there. And what about the bench right there, you could have recorded over that wall?!

[StarWarsDork]

Check out my other Simpsons Ride videos... there's plenty of 'over the wall' footage.

[simpsonsman192]

Didn't You see a crack near by krusty at the wall? And why couldn't you record over the construction wall? P.S Where the sign " MOE'S TARVIN" There was no construction walls anywhere so you could have recorded the area under construction . But NOW IT'S TO lATE cause it's open!

[StarWarsDork]

Watch some of the other videos I posted and you will see over and around the construction wall. You really couldn't see anything from the back of Moe's.

[ghettoside21]

wat did she need ur finger for

[confidential247]

if you buy the 2 day pass, they dont want people giving the ticket to someone else so they ask for your fingerprint.

[StarWarsDork]

Instead of a picture they use your finger print for season passes. It used to be easy to let others use your season pass, but not anymore.

[Blizzeekitty]

21,000 views and these comments are cracking me up. Yer so lucky! :P

[StarWarsDork]

Yep... this one blew up for some reason. :)

[ninjamaster123]

did that lady just say the "f" word?

[LetsMakePancakes2]

Haha Boy Stouts In Da Hood Is Playing On The Tv (or at least i think thats wat its called)

[smiti07]

Ride open. (soft opening 23rd april) What's that music when you approach the Kwik-E-Mart?

[StarWarsDork]

Nope... no soft openings at Universal Studios Hollywood yet. The music is the Police "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic", they seem to play it a lot.

[killerxozn12]

and never saw this

[killerxozn12]

i went to florida univeral hollywood

[brothab2000]

Dude, I went to Universal Studios last weekend and saw this. I still can't believe they are actually doing this. I hear it has something to do with an IMAX screen. Can't wait 'til May!!!

[DrOmega]

I bought Some DUFF from that quik e mart!

[AllThingsMileyCyrus]

is 'the simpsons ride' one ride or a selection of differnt attractions associated with the simpsons? thankssss xxxx

[StarWarsDork]

Inside the building will be one ride and the outside area looks like it will have a "Krustyland" theme with carnival games or something like that.

[cqqlcqqlcool]

why the heeeeeeellllll they want yor id and finger print

[savemeaslice]

It's for season pass holders to verify it is you

[Tokyolinoxis]

Can't wait 'till the ride is ready, It's just that the place is going to be swamped with people on the first day. '>_> Means I have to wait it out a few weeks. x.x

[Civonos]

This makes me sad ;_;

[Mrdjjasper]

does anyone know why they have to scan your finger before u go in?

[StarWarsDork]

They just added that as the "I.D." for season pass holders.

[SonofMrPeanut]

YES! They're showings EPISODES!

[StarWarsDork]

Not full episodes, but funny clips.

[SonofMrPeanut]

Just as good. :P

[tomscott12311]

I have just come back from orlando and while i was there i asked the guy in the kwik-e-mart and he said it will open end of april

[StarWarsDork]

Well this is from the Hollywood Universal Studios... and the website Now says May 17th, 2008. Hopefully I will get an invite to the opening (for being a season pass holder) or maybe I can catch a soft opening in May.

[blizzardskies]

Over 11,000 views! Sweet!!

[brnwrig1]

what is that song that is playing as your walking in to the park?

[StarWarsDork]

I think it's from Jurassic Park.

[Gman9214]

lmao its not as packed as i thought it would be!

[StarWarsDork]

That's because it's still under construction. Wait until it opens!

[BELIALFELLFIRST88]

in the moringings when u first get there before it opens its lik omg countless ppl then when u get in it seem like u own the place there is so little people ha

[hlue3]

the duff's were pretty good

[samwhitecfc]

star wars dork ur in a simpsons kwik e mart real one

[StarWarsDork]

The "Real" Kwik-E-Marts were 7-11 stores that they dressed to look like Kwik-E-Marts from the outside and sold Simpsons related items aswell as the normal 7-11 stuff. They also had full sized versions of Homer, Marge, Bart, Milhouse, Ralph, Chief Wiggum, Maggie, Apu, and a frozen Jasper. Much, much more fun than the one at Universal Studios. But that one's not bad. I will have to repost my Kwik-E-Mart videos soon.

[StarWarsDork]

Oh... And that was only for the month of July '07 to coincide with the release of the Simpsons Movie.

[StarWarsDork]

See the Kwik-E-Mart Slideshow video response that I posted.

[xsasukex09]

i went to universal studios a few days ago and it was sick and like they sell those duff drinks there but its actually a energy drink

[samwhitecfc]

star wars dork is it a roller coaster

[StarWarsDork]

Probably a motion simulator.

[Sentai565]

I just got back from the Orlando Park. They're really far along. The entrance in Krusty's head, and I think the waiting area will look like a carnival area.(I couldn't see over the wall, but i saw the tops of tents.)The entire building is also refitted with "Krustyland" Stuff.

[wweecw1]

does anyone know what this ride is going to be like

[StarWarsDork]

Probably very similar to the ride it's replacing. A motion simulator.

[rissyluvzya22]

is it replacing back 2 the future? If not, then what?

[StarWarsDork]

Yes. Back to the Future is gone. It's been closed since September '07. The Simpsons Ride opens on May 24th, 2008, in the structure that used to house BTTF:TR.

[deil321]

Looks great!

[LikesToDestroy]

i know when it opens, it opens May 24th

[StarWarsDork]

Yep... May 24th, 2008... from USH website...

"Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie Simpson -- stars of TV's longest running series -- will ride along with guests in a new ride opening at Universal Studios Hollywood May 24th."

[ericeric1010]

i went on a friday before the spring break and it was dead we walked on alll the rides we were like the only people there

[Davefan27]

I know the one in orlando is scheduled around March 15th, but i think hollywood's is suppose to be opening later in April, don't quote me on holllywood's, but Bill davis CEO Universal orlando said March 15th in a recent interview for simpsons there.

[shed445]

apparently someone told me march 15th but i dont know if it is true

[RMAworld]

when does it open in CA

[StarWarsDork]

The USH site doesn't have a date listed, it just says "Spring 2008" so I 'm guessing late April or early May. But that's just a guess.

[RMAworld]

Thanks

[Mntndew52]

it opens may 25

[StarWarsDork]

Well, by the looks of it they are using the same building. So I'm assuming it will be a simulator.

[cbsteffen]

Right. I read on Wikipedia that it is supposed to be a simulator ride.

[BlackHuskyzz]

Is the ride gonna be some shitty simulator like Back to the Future, or an actual ride?

[BroadwayBoy2007]

simulator

[BlackHuskyzz]

Dammit -_-;

[katrinavw]

march 15th

[RMAworld]

It opens in may

[alextheprogrammer]

I'm sad to see back to the future go, but at least they didn't take out waterworld... In my opinion its the best attraction they've got there.

[chrisfont]

i love star wars and im really furios becaus how dare you put this online simpsons sucks eback to the future rocks

[maker2000]

dude they should of took out that stupid animal actor shows and put the simpson ride there b/c back to the future is the best ride over i didnt no y they took it out

[CRYPSTA52]

when was this shot, the ride has open? we are February 13, 2008

[StarWarsDork]

The ride wasn't open yet... I'm guessing it won't open 'til the end of April.

[theOcompany]

Said it would open in Florida on 15th March.

[CrazyAbe101]

[ckdog679]
