Nice execpt for when they annonnoce over the pa, you realize the preshow is really on monitors instead of you looking thru windows. I would have done it with a animated segment making them look like they are paused and looking at the guests and each other while waiting for the pa to stop. computers are fast enoght where they could have had the show jump to a pause routine in a milasecond. or even a pause on the pa which pauses the main video and jumps to the pause video routine then lets the pa come on. heck they could have had the whole cast knock it out in a few hours. poor show universal.

Sadly, that appears to be the only part that could be considered a "poor show". Everything else seems to have trumped Disney once again. Entertaining and funny and different. Wake up Disney...the new kid is reaching puberty!

Yeah, the whole world is watching.
I hope they finished syncing the cars to the soundtrack.

They did, unless you get stopped, then it is out of sequence. Worked flawlessly on our 2nd ride.

Sorry, I'm referring to the East Coast. Universal is hardly the new kid out in Hollywood way. But truth be known, I still think that the Universal Backlot Tour in Hollywood gives even Disneyland a bit of a trump. You've heard of One Mans Dream, well that is One Mans Opinion. :)

Have you seen the fast and the furious dancing cars on that tour? That alone ruins the whole thing.

I didn't think Despicable Me was that great a movie or even fared THAAAT well at the box office... That is, not well enough to merit an attraction, at least not this soon.
