Stage
One: Waiting Room Briefing
Upon
entering the waiting room you will be briefed by Jimmy Neutron
and his friend, Carl with demonstrate Jimmy's newest invention...the
powerful Mark IV rocket. But their seems to be an intruder
on the grounds. The evil Ooblar from the planet Yokian breaks
into the lab and steals the Mark IV rocket with plans to
rule Nicktoon Studios and the world. Jimmy recruits you
and the audience to help retrieve the Mark IV and save the
world. However, you will be following in the unpredictable
Mark I rocket pod. Not one of Jimmy's more stable inventions.
But fear not as Jimmy will be piloting your ship by remote
control. So it's off to your ship to save the world...you
hope.
Stage
Two: The Ride
As
the ride begins, you Jimmy, Carl, and Jimmy's robotic dog,
Goddard blast off through Nicktoon Studios and try to capture
Ooblar. You are taken on a wild ride through the neighborhoods
from "Hey Arnold", "The Rugrats", Fairyworld,
home of the "Fairly OddParents", and to the depths
of Bikini Bottom with "Spongebob SquarePants".
The chase will take you to the far reaches of space, to
Ooblar's home world, the planet Yokian. Your final battle
with Ooblar ends right back at Jimmy's lab. Be prepared
as Ooblar will make you suffer a fate worse than death.
Fear not. With Jimmy's help you will save the day.
When
the ride is over you will exit through an interactive area
and gift shop. Here you will find a Photo Op with Spongebob
Squarepants.

Notes:
In
the spring of 2003, Jimmy Neutron's Nicktoon Blast replaced
the Funtastic World of Hanna-Barbera, which used the same
motion based technology. Those who remember the old attraction
will recall the same room layout and ride premise. But the
backdrop and movie are obviously changed.

Universal Orlando: Jimmy Neutron's Nicktoon Blast Tips
Since
this attraction is located at the front of the park, the
best tip we can offer is to ride it on upon entering the
park since the wait time can easily get quite long. Do this
either before or right after Shrek
4-D. Our normal route is Jimmy Neutron first since Shrek's
exit is located around the block. Jimmy's exit is a little
bit closer to Shrek's entrance. The Universal Express Pass
does cut the wait time considerably when crowds are heavy.
An attendant will assign you a row to stand in during the
briefing. This helps determine your seating placement on
the ride. Odd row placement will provide a front row viewing
from your Mark I rocket pod. Obviously, a center rocket
pod in the theater is always best, but each seat gives a
great view.
Since
this is a motion based ride there will be plenty of bumping
around. Stationary seating is available for disabled guests
and those under the height requirement.
