Narrated
by Academy Award®-winning actor Morgan Freeman, Universal’s
Cinematic Spectacular – 100 Years of Movie Memories celebrates
Universal Pictures’ iconic films. The most powerful and emotional moments are
shown in crystal-clear clarity on cutting-edge waterfall screens within the
Universal Studios lagoon – surrounded by colorful, dramatically synchronized
fountains and pyrotechnics, all set to a memorable musical score. The
experience takes guests on a journey through epic cinematic moments filled with
heroes, horror, laughter, good versus evil and triumph.
Universal’s
Superstar Parade
offers an entirely new form of interactive entertainment that gives guests and
entire families the opportunity to join in the fun with some of their favorite
characters – including the minions from the blockbuster animated adventure Despicable
Me, E.B. from the hit comedy Hop, Nickelodeon’s SpongeBob
SquarePants and Dora & Diego. The parade features larger-than-life floats,
state-of-the-art technology and hundreds of energetic street performers.
And
coming this summer, Universal Orlando’s newest ride, Despicable Me
Minion Mayhem, will take guests on an unforgettable 3-D adventure with their
favorite characters from the hit film – Gru, Margo, Edith, Agnes and the
mischievous minions. The experience begins when guests enter Gru’s home, where
they learn that they’re being recruited to become minions and undergo “minion
training.” Things don’t go as planned, and guests find themselves on a wildly
hysterical journey with Gru and his daughters. Once guests make it through
training, they join an interactive, minion-inspired dance party where they can
show off their best moves.
