Best rides for non-coaster fans?

[Alpha Jeanie]

We will be at Universal for 2 days before our Disney Vacation. My husband and kids (9 & 15) love the thrill rides & roller coasters. I on the other hand, will not ride roller coasters or anything that "jerks" you around or makes you dizzy. Ok, I know I'm a whimp! Please suggest some rides that are "milder" that I can go on with the family, that wont leave me "dizzy" for the rest of the day.
Favorite Disney rides are: Buzz Lightyear, Soarin, Toy Story Mania.

I like ET and the Twister attraction at Universal Studios. Men in Black is fun it's kinda like Buzz Light year but if I remember right there is a spot the the vehicle spins for a little bit. There is also a Shrek 4-D movie and the Terminator 2 3-D movie.

At the Universal Studios Park:

Men in Black is the only interactive ride (like Toy Story or Buzz Lightyear), although you don't control the spinning. There is a fair amount of spinning, more than Toy Story, but not for the entire ride.

Other suggestions: Disaster, ET, Terminator 3 (3-D movie), and the Horror Makeup show. I don't like the Shrek ride, but many do, but be sure to get a non-moving seat.

I would avoid the Simpsons since it is far more violent (motion wise) than Soarin (although the themeing is great).

At Islands of Adventure, not much:
Sinbad stunt show, One Fish Two Fish (Dumbo like), the Carousel, and High in the Sky ride. These are mostly kids rides, so you might not enjoy them. Islands really is thrill ride focused.

The mini-golf as USF might be opening soon.

Thank you for all the info.

Thanks for all the tips given for Island of Adventures, I don't do coasters, but I enjoy the entertainment aspects of the parks and all the sights and sounds.......

Everyone, don't forget the Monster Make Up Show. It's great!

Did anyone mention Spiderman or Disaster?

The Shrek seats don't jerk you around, but gives you the feeling of being on a bumpy road. I think the seats make the ride.

Spiderman does jerk you around. My mom didnt like that one, it sounds like you have similar taste to her.

Some good gentle attractions:

ET
Twister
Disaster
Shrek 3D
Beetlejuice Show
Men in Black ride
Cat in Hat ride (IOA)

Just needed to chime in with a warning on the Men in Black recommendations.

It is kinda like Toy Story, but on the down side, in MIB the car will spin if the car going "with" you shoots you. I really enjoyed this ride the first time but the second time I went there was this little beast in the other car that did nothing but shoot our car the ENTIRE ride.

I could've wrung his neck by the time the ride finished . . . . if I could've walked enough to catch him . . . . .

Just an FYI . . . .

Men in Black & Cat in the Hat both have big spins.
