My father is not really into thrill rides, but he's never been to Universal.....Is it worth it to go for a day?

Basically what the title says:
Dad does not really do thrill rides, simulators, etc.
He prefers slower paced rides/attractions...
DH thinks we should get a one day park-to- park ticket to take Dad...

I was thinking SeaWorld would be more enjoyable for him...
Any input?
Thanks!

Oh, if this helps, my dad is a movie buff..

I think there are some things at Universal that he would enjoy. Ive never been there, but there are a lot of rides that are thrill, but a tame kind of thrill. Jaws and Shrek 4D dont look to bad.

I think there's enough 3D/4D shows and slower rides to fill up a day. In Universal, Beetlejuice is good for music fans, Terminator 3D, Shrek, The Horror Make-Up Show, ET Ride, Jaws Ride. MiB is similar to the Toy Story rides.
In IoA there's the Posiedon walk through show, Jurasic Park ride, Zeus Land and of course Potter Land. Doing all of that in a day would be good going and I'm sure I'm forgetting something.

I would think he would be OK as long as he doesn't mind the tamer rides...there is a lot of atmosphere that there a movie buff would enjoy.
