Do people score spider man bad ever? The reason that ride is so good is largely because of the seamless transition between the sets and 3d. 3d in any ride can have a place if done right. Pirates shanghai is not better because of lacking 3d. It is better because the ride was designed around physical sets integrated with screens. You could argue 3d would enhance the ride for most apart from the anything 3d haters.
Good examples of why Universal likes screen based attractions are the upgrades/conversions..
- Spiderman - they were able to upgrade the ride significantly when the upgraded the projectors/animations
- FJ Hollywood - removing 3d
- BTTF - Simpsons
