Universal Studios Florida
-
Universal’s first park in Florida opened in 1990, with movie-themed rides and shows, and a mission to steal some of Disney-MGM’s limelight. But it is only since a recent revamp that the park has really taken off, due largely to the runaway success of the latest additions, the hugely popular Men in Black Alien Attack, Terminator 2: 3-D, and the child-friendly Woody Woodpecker’s KidZone.
