As someone with a deadly fear of thrill rides, 0.

I know I'm stating the obvious here, but this drifting terrain rollercoaster is so much better than the slow, screen-based dark rides that currently exist. A Fast and Furious attraction that is actually fast and thrilling is so much more representative of the franchise.

There should be maybe 2-3 dark rides max in any park. Any more than that is boring and repetitive. And yes, Disney parks are indeed mostly boring and repetitive.

@@RA-hx9uc That's a bold opinion, and while there's nothing wrong with having that opinion (Disney parks may not be your style), I think it's a bit too extreme to say that ANY theme park should NEVER have ANY more than 2-3 dark rides. Most people do not find the Disneyland dark rides boring and repetitive--they find them simple and charming and nostalgic. That doesn't mean you are wrong--one person can find something boring, while another person can find the same thing exhilarating. My point is that Universal's Fast and Furious Supercharged dark ride is a low-budget, poorly executed ride in general. The fact that it is a dark ride has nothing to do with it. Should it have been a roller coaster or Test Track-style attraction from the beginning? Yes, of course! But it is absolutely possible to make a fantastic Fast and Furious dark ride. The upcoming Zootopia land in Shanghai Disneyland has a dark ride where guests ride in a police SUV and engage in a car chase. A more intense version of that ride system, I think, would have been very well received at Universal for the Fast and Furious franchise. So maybe you're just not a dark ride type of person, and that's okay. Or maybe you've just never been on a good dark ride (like Rise of the Resistance). But Disneyland would be nothing without its Fantasyland dark rides, which are some of the most popular attractions in the entire park. Peter Pan's Flight regularly has wait times upwards of an hour. Maybe people don't know what they want, but in my opinion, theme parks in general need MORE quality dark rides, not less. Dark rides provide a lot of capacity without eating up as much space as a roller coaster, and provide much more immersion than a flat ride. But it depends on the park. Six Flags Magic Mountain isn't focused on the same audience as Disneyland, so it makes sense why they don't build dark rides. Universal has a similar audience to Disneyland, so it makes sense why they try to build dark rides (and sometimes do a decent job, like Secret Life of Pets: Off the Leash).

I agree. I'm happy that the Universal's investing in something unique for USH, especially a new, badass coaster, but Animal Actors and the Special Effects Show were really part of the heart and soul of USH and I don't think I'll ever be able to ride this ride without thinking about what we lost. If I had to choose between the two shows and this ride, no matter how great Hollywood Drift is gonna be, I'd probably pick the two shows. I really hope they come back.

Does universal normally put this much effort into sounds a ride makes or is this a one of thing because it’s a rollercoaster near houses and soundstages. Either way I can’t wait to be there on opening day

@ThemeParkStop

8 ай бұрын

Depends on what is required for each location. For this it’s not just the soundstages and backlot, but they’re also bound by a local sound ordinance for the neighboring communities. It’s required that they keep sounds under a certain level during the day and even less sound at night according to the rules they’ve agreed to with the community.

As a person who lived in Cali my whole life and regularly goes and loves USH a lot I hate that people in Florida are mad that they aren’t getting this coaster like they didn’t just get Velocicoaster and Hagrid’s and are getting a whole new park

I figure the "two football fields" wall is going to go along Kirk Douglas Dr. There are soundstages below Super Silly Fun Land and the entire coaster is staying south of that road so it makes the most sense. Kirk Douglas Dr starts above the halfway point between the Upper and Lower Lots and it passes by the Jurassic World ride building fairly close to the halfway point. From there the road gets steeper as it curves around to the actual Lower Lot but the area they've been flattening south of the fire station is much higher than that road, so everybody better give up hope that this thing is going anywhere near the Lower Lot. It looks like they're already carving out a straightaway before/after the mini top hat and it's well above Kirk Douglas. The lowest point it may reach is when it goes under the Skyway, which is about 2.5 escalators above the Lower Lot. This is not going to be VelociCoaster East and I don't want to hear the whining when people finally realize that. If anything, it's going to be more like Hagrid's+. This is probably the most exciting thing this park will ever get so be happy it's not another animation on the Studio Tour!

LMAO, first you claim Universal isn't gonna build this at all and now that's it's confirmed you backpedal and go "B-B-BUT IT'S GONNA BE LIKE HAGRID'S" even though the blueprints CLEARLY show this is a pure white knuckle thrill coaster. And your point about the starway jr immelmann being the lowest point is a load of crap. The 3rd launch's location is well over 100 feet below the upper lot. TLDR; Just stop coping and seething and learn to take the L.

Love that a new coaster will be coming but hopefully there will be no inversions though

orlando need coastal too .

it’s great they’re making sure to reduce sound pollution considering a major high school is just across the street 😭

You would've thought at Orlando they'd use a coaster concept, instead, you get to sit in the same spot for about 3 minutes while you can hardly see the entite 360 screen.

I wish you and yesterworld still made a podcast

test track mixed with trackless drifting!

Im a little iffy on the drifting. I hope the coaster can still really rip. Those rotatings cars are just bulkier and not as nimble as a coaster like Velocicoaster, which is what i was hoping for. Best case scenario is it's done really well and is a great coaster, i just the drifting doesnt feel like a gimmick that holds it back from being great.
