Unfortunately, the evil Lord Farquaad shows up to cut short their honeymoon and kidnap Fiona. Shrek and his new bride, Princess Fiona, together with Donkey set off for their honeymoon. This is when you don the Ogre-Vision glasses, sit in your specially designed seat and are taken into the fairy tale world of Duloc. Listen carefully as one of Lord Farquaad’s henchman advises guests about the rules of the theatre, should you fall foul of any of these rules you could be in for a flogging! Guests are then ushered into the theatre to begin their adventure. Look for the three sets of eyes staring out from the crates, these are the three little pigs and also for Pinocchio’s nose which has been imprisoned. The pre-show lasts approximately six minutes and takes place in the torture chamber. There are no height restrictions for this ride but if you suffer from motion sickness, there are special seats available which are stationary. The adventure begins where the first Shrek movie ended but before the sequel begins. If there is a bump in the road, you are definitely going to feel it! ! Your seat becomes part of the 4-D experience. This consists of a motion simulator where you will actually feel all of the action whilst sitting in your seat, and I do mean “feel the action”. Shrek 4-D is basically a 3-D film (you will be given special glasses called Ogre-Vision glasses as you enter) but with an extra dimension of special effects added to it. Also, an added bonus was that I just love the Shrek films. ![]() The "Shrek" star sat at the box office with an unimpressed face, almost as if he just emerged from the "Panda" ride.I have been on all the 3-D rides in Walt Disney World and thoroughly enjoy them and so was intrigued by the thought of a 4-D ride and couldn’t wait to try it out on our next visit to Universal Studios. In fact, the thing I remember most about previewing the “Kung Fu” ride on Thursday was its grand-opening parade, complete with life-size "Kung Fu" and "Shrek" characters, Chinese dragons, martial arts demonstrations and drums. Universal says the entire "Emperor's Quest" is ten minutes long, but only half of that time is spent in a seat - not enough time to leave any kind of lasting impression. Once guests have gotten used to watching the vibrant "Panda" animation on the 180-degree screen, the show is over. He does it, of course, while guests sit very comfortably: Seat vibrations and water mist in time with the onscreen crashes feel like back massages and cooling sprays to park attendees.īut it all happens so fast. The mission: Po must deliver a “liquid of ultimate power” to the emperor and dodge rapids, broken bridges and the villainous Kang Wolf in the process. “Check please! I can’t compete with that,” says Donkey, seeming to nod to the fact that “Kung Fu” indeed replaced the inferior “Shrek 4-D” ride that was once housed in the same Universal Hollywood walls.Īfter the non-”Kung-Fu” characters dissipate, for reasons including they don’t want to put their lives on the line to join Po on a mission, all of the humans are invited to sit in one of the 241 high theater seats and come on an adventure. Once inside the lobby, Shrek, Donkey and various "Trolls" and "Madagascar" characters vie for a chance to star in their own show, ultimately surrendering to Po. Here's how the "Quest" starts: Guests are filed into a theater decorated with movie posters of Dreamworks titles (“Boss Baby,” “Madagascar 2,” etc.). The visuals are cute enough, but the plot doesn't add anything novel to the reliably clever and vibrant "Panda" franchise. The family-friendly ride, which is available to the public June 15, seats guests in the middle of the action with Po (the animated panda version of Jack Black) and his Kung Fu family. ![]() Visitors of the "Kung Fu Panda: The Emperor’s Quest" attraction at Universal Studios in Hollywood need not be concerned with visual impairment: The ride doesn't exactly ooze awesomeness. In the original “Kung Fu Panda” movie, the title character imagines his enemies “would go blind from overexposure to pure awesomeness,” as he says.
