"You're gonna need a bigger shopping bag..." That's Universal Orlando Resort's take on its latest tribute store, which will sell merchandise from films like "Jaws" (which features the famous line "you're gonna need a bigger boat"), "Ghostbusters," "Back to the Future," "E.T. The Extra Terrestrial" and "Shrek."

The Summer Tribute Store will open on May 24 in the Hollywood area at Universal Studios Florida.

The shop was inspired by movies featured in two new experiences coming to the resort this summer: the Universal Mega Movie Parade and nighttime show CineSational: A Symphonic Spectacular.

Like all of Universal's tribute stores, the new one will be highly themed, this time to the 1980s. Shoppers can expect to feel like they're in a shopping mall, a video store, an arcade and a theater from the '80s. Easter eggs related to the movies will abound inside the store.

Apparel, accessories, home goods will be among the merchandise for sale at the Summer Tribute Store.

Later this summer, the Summer Tribute Store will also sell bubble wands inspired by "Trolls," "Minions" and "Jurassic World." The wands will interact with each other and floats in the Universal Mega Movie Parade.
