Universal Orlando - Islands of Adventure

Churchy is not in a panic. He apparently hasn't realized the Friday the 13th is on Monday this month.


Ancient History

 

The Official Marvel Theme Park - in Florida, at least: Universal Orlando!


Hang Loose, Spidey

 

The Eigth Voyage of Sindbad stunt show may have closed in 2018, but they were ahead of the curve in promoting empowered women. Princess Amoura looks like she could easily take out the evil witch Miseria and her henchman.


I've Got You, My Pretty

 

Miseria's hench-zombie pops up out of a basket looking, for a victim. Sindbad's sidekick Kabob is so dumb that he doesn't even notice.


No Brains Here

 

Did you know that this tower is called Pharos Lighthouse and was inspired by one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World? Neither did I.


Tower of Adventure

 

This tree looks like it spent some time scrunched into the Grinch's bag.


Merry Suess-mas

 

It's not a real Christmas unless the Grinch tries to steal it. Accept no imitations. Meanwhile, the Whos in Whoville are singing their Who-carols and looking forward to a plate full of roast beast.


Welcome to Whoville

 

Poseidon was so filled with Fury that he ran off and left his feet behind.


My, What Big Feet You Have

 

A brainless zombie gives Sindbad's sidekick Kabob an intelligence test.


Hello? Anybody Home?

 

Universal obviously doesn't try to keep you from seeing one land from another. By the way, that band of trees between The Lost Continent and Hogwarts Castle is now home to the Velocicoaster.


When Worlds Collide

 

The Evil Witch Miseria is up to no good, zapping innocent people with her sparkly staff.


ZAP!

 

Turnabout is fair play as the Evil Witch Miseria is set alight by the power of the magical gem that Sindbad took from her.


It Burns, Burns, Burns

 

Blurp like a tuba, slurp like a cat - Mr. Brown does it all.


Master Mimic

 

It looks like a kid took his Hulk-coaster toy and gave it a good twist.


Twist and Shout

 

Look, over there to the south, where the big castle is. DO NOT GO THERE!

Professor Xavier tells Universal's Marvel characters to stay away from Walt Disney World.


X Marks the Spot

 

Continuing our tour of Marvel Super Hero Island, we see this dire warning on the launch tube of The Incredible Hulk Coaster.


Danger! Stay Away!
