May the fourth be with you! We celebrated Star Wars Day 2015 in style at Walt Disney World’s Hollywood Studios in Orlando, Florida! While there, we hit the Star Wars Dine-In Galactic Breakfast and Jedi Mickey’s Star Wars Dine, both coming to Star Wars Weekends. We also rode Star Tours, picked up the Star Wars […]
To be completely candid, large conventions intimidate me. I’ve never been to SDCC or NYCC, or anything even remotely close. I think the largest convention I’ve been to was Dallas SciFi Expo a couple of years back, and that was a mid-size con from what I understand. However, when an opportunity like Star Wars Celebration, […]
Universal Studios Singapore is located in the heart of Singapore’s fully integrated attraction-filled island, Sentosa Resorts World. Within the past few years, the island has fully transformed from unoccupied space to a fully realized tourist getaway, and Universal occupies a large part of that space. Much like the rest of the island, sans the casino, […]
This year promises to be a big one for IoM, with tons of new coverage and events, including, hopefully, our first visit to Universal Studios Hollywood, who’ve share the below image with us, and new information about the new “Springfield” coming in Spring 2015! Christian Serratos, star of AMC’s hit show “The Walking Dead,” […]

Pauloween 2015 is coming up! (yes, I know it’s March…but still!) There’s no real info on the event yet, but keep […]
As part of the “Face Off” media event, we were invited to partake in a RIP (think VIP) tour of all of this year’s houses as well as premium seating for Bill & Ted’s Excellent Halloween Adventure. In the videos that I’ve put out on my View From The Cheap Seats YouTube channel, I’ve consistently […]
It was quite a surprise when my phone rang mid-week with an urgent assignment. However, when assignments involve amazing times at Orlando’s premier Halloween event, you drop everything and run. As a result, the 2014 edition of Pauloween continued this weekend, with a special “Face Off: In The Flesh” media event held at Universal Studios […]
Universal Studios Orlando offers two “lights-on” Unmasking the Horror tours of their HHN houses and, combined, you get a behind the scenes look at 6 of the 8 haunted houses of the event. I HIGHLY recommend checking these tours out (after you’ve seen the houses with the lights off) as you get a ton of […]

Navigate through Wendigo Woods™, one of five Terror-tories™; brave a darkly entertaining show like Monster Stomp™ on Ripper Row™ or explore six haunted houses waiting for those daring enough to enter the park after dark. Be warned: at […]
