Today is actually the character’s birthday! And consequently also JK Rowling’s, the author of the series. Harry Potter would be 37 today, if he were an actual person. And Rowling is 52 today. I’ll never forget when Hogsmeade opened. It was such an exciting time! For a couple weeks leading […]
Vintage Hollywood Studios
When the Great Movie Ride closes, I think it causes Disney’s Hollywood Studios to become the first park to achieve a rare accomplishment. It’s the first area theme park that will no longer have an attraction in it that was open on the park’s opening day. Other attractions are noted […]
Some backstory…
Before there was “5 o’clock Friday Beer”, there was “Mikey and Joey walk around World Showcase a couple times and film it”. Before you start trying to find that playlist, this wasn’t a weekly stunt for YouTube. These types of shenanigans didn’t happen too often. But when they did, it […]
Ash gets a crack at HHN 27!
We got a house reveal today (July 27 2017)! Ash vs Evil Dead will be at Halloween Horror Nights 27! This house will be based off the show of the same name that can be seen on the Starz Network. No date set for the debut of the third season of […]
Hidden Mickeys on the Snow White ride. #tbt
It’s been 5 years since this opening day attraction has closed at the Magic Kingdom. I must admit, Snow White’s Scary Adventure was almost always a “must do” every visit to the MK. It was located where the Princess meet and greet is now in Fantasyland. Taken after attraction closed […]
Mikey’s thoughts on the Dragons
It was (finally) officially announced yesterday, Monday 7/24, that Dragon Challenge will be closing soon! Taking its place will be what Universal is calling a “new generation of thrill ride“. Opening in 2019, this will be an all new thrill ride that will “take you deeper into J. K. Rowling’s […]
Remember this from a year ago?
Around this time last year, Harry and I were making daily trips to the Universal parks. This is a vlog from one of those trips. I created a “UniArtDrop” in honor of the recently revealed Hulk statue. The ride was closed at the time and going through a refurbishment. And […]
Hello Kitty!
Hello Kitty has been settled into her new spot for awhile now. Here you’ll find just about any kind of merchandise with Hello Kitty’s likeness on it. But beyond the merch, the artwork around the store is also a lot of fun! Here’s a detailed walk around the store: Here’s […]
It’s almost time to drink again! But first…
Drinking beer at Universal Orlando is one of my favorite things to do. So it only makes sense we would have a weekly show featuring this! We started doing the “5 o’clock Friday Beer” the first week of 2017. Joey and I would grab a brew from somewhere (usually on […]
What’s This T-Shirt Business?
You might have noticed that we’ve been attempting to sell t-shirts lately. I thought I’d dedicate a post to explain how I’m doing it and why I decided to do it this way. I’ve had a few requests over the years to slap together some sort of Magic City […]
