Jim gets timey-wimey. 37:34 yes This week, we decide to prove whether or not the sum is equal or greater to its parts as we combine the themes of every OppAtt season to create one wild ride. First up, Scottye goes all the way back to season one to call in a favor from a masterpiece as he presents Juicy Peaches' Sidekick Academy, a glitched fly-and-shoot training simulator that may not exactly pass muster as education but excels in flavor. Then, Jim decides that what Captain America really needs is two asses as he installs both himself and Scottye in the role of the great hero to then travel back in time to set the other host on a whole new path. The only problem is that it may be built out of really cheap materials and be held together by bailing wire, medicated adhesive strips, and willpower. Just imagine anything Chester & Hester would build, but not even good enough to be on top of an old parking lot at Animal Kingdom. disney, disney world, universal studios, design, imagineering, engineering, architecture, superheroes, internet, america, dungeons & dragons, reboot, dangerous, epic universe, islands of adventure, hollywood studios, epcot This week, we decide to prove whether or not the sum is equal or greater to its parts as we combine the themes of every OppAtt season to create one wild ride.

Jim kills some dolls. 32:01 yes This week, we discuss new signs, (hopefully) fake scripts, and do our best to give our very own Epic Universe some very spooktacular kiddie attractions. First up, Scottye invites kids of all ages to experience The Ride Where Everything Goes Wrong, a menagerie of animatronics from around the multiverse converging around a boat that somehow has wheels. It has to be technically possible, as we've seen it at Disney Springs! Then, Jim decides that it isn't such a small world that we can't do some Mary Blair murder and yeets those dolls squarely into the Haunted Mansion where they will forever be entangled in your nightmares. It doesn't so much have a name as it has a blood-curdling sound that fills your soul the moment you envision such a hellscape. Isn't he supposed to be the reasonable one? disney, disney world, universal studios, design, imagineering, engineering, architecture, epcot, tomorrowland, epic universe, lego, it's a small world, haunted mansion, ducktales, spiderverse, cosmic rewind This week, we discuss new signs, (hopefully) fake scripts, and do our best to give our very own Epic Universe some very spooktacular kiddie attractions.

Scottye goes for distance. 31:36 yes This week, after some D23 discussion, we set about putting some seasonal modifications into our very own Epic Universe. First, Jim sets the stage for disaster as he randomly chooses the contestants on American Ninja Warrior Presents A Series Of Unfortunate Events, a rain or shine (or dark of night) show featuring your favorite stunts from your favoritiest TV show, especially in the middle of winter. Don't worry, there may or may not be some water to land in should you fall. Speaking of maybe landing in water, Scottye goes even farther back into television history for inspiration as he invites his guests to partake in Rocket J. Squirrel's School Of Flying/Flight School, a technically possible wingsuit rollercoaster (up until the grand finale)! Bullwinkle may not be able to pull a rabbit out of a hat, but he should be able to rescue you from the wave pool. Things are only going to get worse this season. Also, be sure to check out Jim's new RPG, Survive The Magic, available to download for free. disney, disney world, universal studios, design, imagineering, engineering, architecture, action park, american ninja warrior, rocky and bullwinkle, water park, dangerous, epic universe, D23, Epcot This week, after some D23 discussion, we set about putting some seasonal modifications into our very own Epic Universe.

Scottye visits New Jersey. 33:05 yes It's a brand new season and you know that means it's time for a brand new theme park! No, it's not Universal Studios Kentucky, but it is our very own Epic Universe! We are beating Comcast to the punch by throwing all of our own ideas at the wall and seeing what sticks. First, Jim tries his hand at, you know, just knocking off what Universal is doing and adding in the TurboGrafx-16. Scottye, fresh off a trip to Central Florida, has found a co-conspirator in his surly friend Jersey Dan to bring to you, the listener, The Most Dangerous Theme Park In The Universe. Action Park can go take a long trip off a short Atlantic City Boardwalk, because this season, Danger is all of our middle names. disney, disney world, universal studios, design, imagineering, engineering, architecture, action park, new jersey, land before time, wikipedia, epic universe, islands of adventure It's a brand new season and you know that means it's time for a brand new theme park!
