What an awesome time. My cousin and I got to do the Buck Rogers screen test, my Mom did the wall table, another cousin did the E.T. bike. Best era ever at Universal.
I wish I was born earlier and able to go on this version of the studio tour. Love your videos. Please keep posting.
We will. Thank you for commenting. It’s why we do this. We have tons more to come so subscribe so you know when we push them out. Thanks again.
I’m sad 😔 time flys the studio tour is nothing now compared to back then 😢💔
Thank you so much for this. I just recently lost my Grandmother, and I have been going down memory lane and I remember going here in 1985 and this takes me right back to that time.
Sorry for your loss. Glad we were able to help. Stay strong.
@@cowmissing I'm so sorry I'm just now seeing this, I came back to relive it again, and saw your comment, it was meant to be. Thank you for such a sweet comment. It has been very hard, but videos, and memories like this make it better, thank you for your kind words.
So sorry for your lost may your grandma rest in piece next to mines and our lost ones 😢🕊️
I remember watching this video as a kid and being completely fascinated with universal.
I remember being about ten years old. It was 1986 and I was wearing a bright red t shirt with a discreet Australian flag print. I was waving furiously when they asked for volunteers for the screen test. Thankfully they picked me. The plane gently flipped myself and another audience member over while we waved at the camera. We were wearing striped prisoner garbs. I remember watching the finished product- along with a cheering audience- on the big screen. Beautiful memories. I once had the video casette of this, though I have no idea where it is. Still, the magic was palpable: a crowd of strangers felt like a family. I was officially in love with cinema! Thank you for sharing this stunning time capsule.
Thank you for sharing as well. We have more videos like this on our channel, please enjoy.
Universal Studios in the 1980s. Cool
I did this tour in 1980. It was a blast as a kid!
Likewise. I had a video tape of the screen test, though I have no idea where it is now. Very fond memories; it was the next best thing to being IN the movies.
I'm reading the comments and that's so bloody cool that so many of you got to experience this live and direct! I was born in '83 so yeeeeaaaah I couldn't have enjoyed it.
So cool!
i remember all of that!! what made universal great was the shows and entertainment! the studio tour was amazing!
Thank you for posting this historical video. The parks tried a lot harder back in the 1980s. Now they just want to cash in on rides
Fantastic! Thank you so much for sharing this amazing piece of theme park history.
Groovy. Like that the shark can walk on it's fins.
I remember the rolling rocks during the tram tour! I miss the old Universal!
Wow, great memories, went on this tour for the first ime in '87, and I remember seeing the Back to the Future lot, it was amazing.
The 80’s were great times at USH.
That was the year I first visited there.
Thank you so much for posting this!!! I remember going to Universal Studios on my 6th birthday in 1985. People don’t believe me when I tell them that you used to get off the tram midway through the tour to do the special effects demonstration. Also, the live TV show filming was something I thought was so cool back then. Great video!
I remember this tour ... I remember taking the tour back in the early 1970's
Great upload! Thanks for the memories!
A different time for sure. Glad you enjoyed it.
i cant believe 1984 was 40 years ago. 40 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol
i remember going here in the late 60s/early 70s. all i remember as a highlight was the area covered with foam boulders you could pick up. julie is a tepid hostess, but maybe we'll luck out and get to see them filming "small wonder"
I loved the collapsing bridge - forgot about the parting of the sea.
I rode the Studio Tour Tram on my 9th birthday!
Wow that brought back some good memories
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
Wow. This is just so amazing to see how far we've come. Thank you so much
Omg! Thanks for the memories 😭🥰🌟
I really hope Universal reopens Collapsing Bridge for the 60th Anniversary

You're welcome!!
Yooooooo this was soooooo cool!😁💯👍🏾
Wish this was still a thing!
I got to do the audience portion of Buck Rodgers as a kid...
Wish I had a time machine and relive these memories
The red sea is going to be a building now.
Vintage, cool !
Was there in 85
Me too!!
Some of these attractions are gone. How sad.
Ahh, I remember that battlestar galatica tunnel :) I just went on the tour last week. Doesn’t have the same charm as it used to, they should have left in the bridge and a few other of these old set pieces. Ugh, and why remove that Conan show? It was awesome! Would much prefer that over some crap like the minions ride.
I went there in December 1978, I just watched this to refresh my memory, some of the stuff was a bit different and some has faded from memory.
Universal should recreate this for a special event
2:08 is a 100 times better than the "star wars" rise of the resistance ride 🤣
yo, manny, ever see a cylon come apart like that?
It was great tour for it day I understand it sucks now
I would guess that this is post ET pre Back to the Future.
Post ET? No way, the ET Adventure opened in 1991.
@@cowmissing I meant in terms of movies. I know that ET Adventure opened in 1991 and Back to the Future opened in 1993. This was more like Post Conan Pre Miami Vice
Look out for the train 15:41
🌎 universal
unfortunately, the hanging rope in the mae west and w.c. fields' 1940 film my little chickadee is gone. i was curios as to if it was still there after all these years, so i had a friend drive by yesterday (march 1, 2024) the livery stable, and he confirmed the rope is no longer there.
Yes, it's gone. ua-cam.com/video/XwFzdKUP_oQ/v-deo.htmlsi=RZBYJ3wlKjVHe1uG&t=1819
Sad. I always look for the old ones
Lol @20:18 they reuse the exact crowd reaction sound effect. Ha ha did they think we wouldn't notice. Lol it was harder to rewind in the 1980s
LOL, A lot of the same footage was used over and over in later videos. Good eye! 🤓
The Conan show was awesome., They really need to do a new Conan movie and do it right like the first movie...The one with James Earl Jones as Thulsa Doom. The first movie was the best. The one with Wilt Chamberlain not so much..
Miss it when it was just a studio tour & shows…..now just trying to be another theme park
they should resurrect the collapsing bridge or part the red sea effects on the current studio tour it’s kinda lost its touch in today’s tour offerings
The Collapsing Bridge still exists, just not used. Its right behind King Kong 360:3D.
@@cowmissing i know i just we were able to drive over it again ohh well
I went there when it opend an none of the rides worked I wanted to go in!
Where is King Kong?
King Kong opened in 1986.

Great find, how did you reference this?
@@cowmissing Listened to the tracks themselves. These are the album IDs
I understand, how did you reference them? Did you compose the music? What year is this from?
