Park Rush

Lots of news to get through this week as Disney unveils an opening date for Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway, provides us with more details on its Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser hotel, and we get a glimpse of Universal's plans for its classic monsters at its next Florida theme park.

We aspire to build the LEGOLAND of our dreams in the latest instalment of our journey back through the history of theme park video games, although the constant narration does its best to deter us.

We have discussions of the speculative and official variety this week, however both are about animated movies making their presence felt at Universal parks! What can we expect from How To Train Your Dragon at Epic Universe in Florida in 2023? And how is The Secret Life Of Pets shaping up in Hollywood ahead of its spring opening?

Universal Studios Japan has dropped a bunch of new details about Super Nintendo World, which is just a few months away from opening! Join us for everything you need to know about how you'll interact with the land with the nifty Power Up Bands and a mobile app, plus plenty more fun details to get us excited to make the trip.

It's been a slow news week, but Sam Eagle rescued the situation by announcing a new restaurant at Epcot - and the fabled Tayto Park over in Ireland has run into some worrying problems. Plus feedback from last week's Lord Of The Rings discussion.

Happy New Year! We welcome 2020 by delving into an exciting new report on what Universal could be cooking up for Lord Of The Rings at Islands Of Adventure. Is this theme park dream finally going to become true this decade?

The holiday season has driven Josh to the brink of insanity, as he relives a year spent watching some of the worst films ever made. And Pirates Of The Caribbean.

Our journey through the history of theme park video games continues with the sequel to Theme Park World. Join us as we return to the sequel to the original Theme Park for the first time since childhood - and we wish you a very Merry Christmas!

There's plenty more Star Wars chat on this week's show, but we're able to break it up a bit thanks to The Imagineering Story on Disney +, new details on Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway, and a new Aardman project at Efteling in the Netherlands!

Rise Of The Resistance is finally here and is already being hailed as the greatest theme park ride ever constructed. We dive in headfirst with our thoughts on the new attraction and what it means for Galaxy's Edge, while news of Tom's up-and-running Star Wars marathon to prepare for the release of The Rise Of Skywalker means that galaxy far, far away certainly dominates proceedings this week. But we still find time for some chat about The London Resort, with some new details making their way online this week.
