I would settle for a state of the art simulator that takes us through all these famous films and rides we've lost. A ride version of Cinematic Spectacular.
BttF as a property I would welcome back. But the BTTF is a ride that is looked at through some SERIOUS rose colored glasses. It was not a good attraction. It was a mediocre attraction at best based on a great property.

Um, first of all, I desperately want BTTF back.
But secondly, no, of course BTTF isn't coming back as a full-blown ride. Where the hell is this coming from? This new poster asks us if we've heard the rumor, then doesn't elaborate at all, he only posts that unrelated Nike Mags video. Am I the only one who finds this kind of irritating?
As much as I would love this and us fans of old school Universal would like to see it, you have to remember that the parks are a business. And when Universal makes a big investment on an attraction, they want to see a return on that investment whether it's in increased ticket sales or merchandise. Universal bases their newest attractions basically on pop culture relevance. Back to the Future is a classic, yes, but I don't think that means spending millions on a new attraction for it right now would make sense.
So with no new Harry Potter films coming out, is that a worthy investment..? This will be old within 5 years, and the Simpsons was already on 5-10minute queues in October. We have been most years for the last 5-6 years and Jaws had a 45minute queue.

I dunno what Simpsons queue you saw in October, because the one I saw was always 45 minutes plus. And no way, no how was Jaws anywhere NEAR 45 minutes then.

...and let me guess, the reason you're a huge fan of Harry Potter ride is because you're a huge Harry Potter fan? I thought the Harry Potter stuff sucked, hey, guess what...I'm not a Harry Potter fan :-\ The castle was done extremely well though, along with the buildings and moving photos, shops etc.
I too, was never a big fan of the BTTF ride. I always got a big kick out of the fleet of flying DeLoreans all moving in sync. Even for it's time Star Tours was always the better simulator. But I will also admit that I am not a fan of the BTTF series. I enjoyed the first one. Got bored with the 2nd one. And have only seen parts of the 3rd one on, like, TBS. But I am also not a Star Wars fan.
That's because you're a *shock horror* Disney head :doh:
Oh the irony of this statement.

Haha! Skippy you know I am an apologist. I watch my DVD of Stitch's Supersonic Celebration in loop mode while hugging my newest Duffy Bear and drinking from my souvenir Disney Parks paper cup that comes TOTALLY free with each beverage purchase. Universal doesn't give away souvenir "Universal Parks and Resorts Worldwide LLP" paper cups. Now, do they?
