This needs a show scene and an epic queue to make me think this is anything but a wasted opportunity. Dinos are cool...use the property Universal. A generic coaster is a poor response to a Tron and Guardians (assuming 2021 opening for those). I’ll be confused if Universal make the effort for Potter but not for their own biggest property...I hope they’ve considered this more than their decisions over the past half decade. I’m concerned.
Is Hulk a generic coaster? This will be *more* like that and DC than the Potter coaster, doesn’t mean there won’t be distinct elements for this ride.
Debatable imo. Hulks theming isn’t enough for me to prefer it to Kraken, Manta or Mako. It’s my least favourite ‘big coaster’ in Orlando.
I hope they’re reading...people like Dinosaurs!! Give us cool Dinosaurs!!
But that's the thing, this ride needs AA's! The more ACTUAL Dino's the better.I think we over corrected people in saying this will be un-themed. I didn’t want people to think they’re going to receive a coaster with show scenes and AAs and instead this will be a highly themed but more traditional coaster experience.
That's what River Adventure is for.But that's the thing, this ride needs AA's! The more ACTUAL Dino's the better.
Just gonna leave this here for all the non-believers....
Interestingly timed tweet from official UO:
Hope they learned their lesson? From one of the company's most popular attractions and one of the most popular attractions in said park? I sure hope they did too!
Once again, don't quite get the "BIG COASTERZ BAD" meme on here. I get not wanting to have as many as Six Flags or even Busch, but having a couple of them is part of what helps Uni stand out from Disney.
Ehhhh I’m a bigger fan of universal, but don’t really like unthemed steel coasters. Universal is better than that at this point. You provide thrill other ways.It’s because most people here who complain about them are primarily Disney fans and see parks through Disney conditioning. I’m not saying this as a put down or a jab to said people. It’s jusy clearly the case
I completely agree. I remember my first time visiting Islands as a kid (2006), a perfect blend of rides for the avid thrill seeker and for those with families. Ever since they demolished the Dragon Challenge, this idea of having a new high-speed coaster with inversions reinstates the perception I had of Islands of Adventure when I was a child.Once again, don't quite get the "BIG COASTERZ BAD" meme on here. I get not wanting to have as many as Six Flags or even Busch, but having a couple of them is part of what helps Uni stand out from Disney. The combination of highly themed rides AND big coasters is what made me fall in love with Uni, particularly Islands in the first place.
