That is such a ridiculously stupid scene for a ride. Every time I'm on it, the reaction of peoples faces in this random scene is so funny.

I hate that entire scene, the dialogue is even worse. Vin Diesel acted like he wanted to anywhere else in the world. It was like they told him"you either do this ride or your career is over" lol

Yeah, the 12 film cars, 3 custom made for the queue, and then the "war room" should make them happy. And for the rest of us, at least it's virtual queue.

At least Kong had the saving grace of having that giant animatronic gorilla at the very end growling at you. Plus that great queue and witch lady

Whats gonna save this ride? An animatronic vin diesel waving at you while he talks about Familia?

There's been talks about using the element quite like the former F&F stop in the Universal Hollywood tram. Who knows, maybe there will be a few practical effects scattered to balance the 3D out like they did with Kong.

I'm not sure how well practical effects would interact with the 360 screens though. Shooting mist or smoke works, but i'd imagine something like explosions or fire would not. The light from it probably just reflect off the screen and make it look even worse.

The rumor, if I am not mistaken; is that the scene would be right after the 360 sequence. And to honestly guess, I doubt they'd put it in the 360 theater itself.

Even the general public is getting tired of screen rides. Look at comments made by normal people on youtube or twitter and stuff

...I wouldn't use Twitter or YouTube comments as indicators of the general public.

I'm pretty sure the general public are users of Twitter and YouTube, as well as Facebook, Instagram, etc. There's no way you can discredit entire social media platforms.

You can... but then again you can discredit every source of information as not indicative of the opinion of the general public. It is very difficult to determine what the exact opinion of the general public is on rides as opposed to movies. There is no aggregate source that everyone can display their opinion on equal footing when it comes to theme parks. At least none that is easily read/interpreted.

Well u can get a general idea.
Specially when they seem to gear towards the same side or agree on something.

Yes, I believe in that big time when it comes to theme parks on social media platforms, especially You Tube. Generally, all Universal new attractions get trashed, whether they deserve it or not. I would speculate there's a very heavy pro Disney bias that almost automatically says nay to Universal. As time goes by, the percentage of negatives recede, and the reviews become a bit more even handed. But the initial burst is almost always heavily anti Universal. Therefore, I pay little attention to the early reviews of Universal or Disney attractions since there appears to be so much bias involved.

I think we're forgetting a lot of Disney slanted fans follow Universal and have nothing pleasant to say ever because they feel their perfect pixy world is being attacked..

I'm a big Universal fan. Its why I joined this site. But I would say the exact opposite of what you think. But hey, that's just my opinion. I think there is a lot of bias on here, but hey..its a Universal site, so its to be expected. Just like there is Disney bias on Disney oriented sites. But let's not turn this into a Disney vs. Universal thing again. I really hate how that comes up every time something negative is said.

It's Disney fanboys who are upset that Universal has actually caught up to "their" parks.

There's also the idea that your opinion has no relation to your feelings about anything else, but hey....
