Last summer Universal Orlando launched "Wizarding World of Harry Potter," and now they are updating the park's "Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man" attraction and replacing its Jimmy Neutron-themed ride with a 3-D version based on the animated film Despicable Me.
According to the Associated Press, the Spidey ride will be updated with the highest-quality HD resolution available, special effects and new details in the film, which is projected onto a towering screen.
The "Despicable Me" attraction will replace the Jimmy Neutron's Nicktoon Blast simulator, which has been running only part-time since April and will close permanently August 18.
Last year's film Despicable Me grossed more than $540 million worldwide and like the movie, the Universal ride will feature Gru, his three adopted daughters and the minions.
Universal says riders will be transformed into minions before embarking on the 3-D adventure and get to participate in a minion "dance party" at the end of the ride.
