I previewed Epic Universe, the new multibillion-dollar theme park from Universal Orlando Resorts. It was well worth the investment for the company.

Universal Orlando Resort recently invited a group of fans and theme park social media types for a live-action preview of its long-awaited Epic Universe expansion.

The new Epic Universe in Florida marks the first new major theme park in the United States in nearly a quarter century, lives up to the hype created during the years of buildup and ups the ante in Universal’s crosstown showdown with rival Walt Disney World.
