Everest disagrees with both of those. What's your point?
LOLno
Everest is a decent coaster wrapped in incredibly underwhelming theming with a broken climax.

I almost get upset with the state of Dinosaur every time I ride it. Right now, it's fun and at times impressive, but man what could've been...
I think Dinosaur is great. It's a dark ride.. so I don't mind that it's dark.
So Avatarland is still going to happen?
You could have just said, "what?" It's kind of an all-encompassing term that tends to alleviate redundancies.
I think that they meant was that it is easier to create a believable setting in an old temple than one in prehistoric times simply because we can actually visit temples and tombs (as many of us have). Not so much with living dinosaurs (unless Lucky counts). Assuming that's what they meant, I tend to agree. In Dinosaur, there is a lot of empty space, true, but it is deliberate and, ironic as it sounds, functional. The abysmal blackness of the ride plays into people's fears of the unknown, which is appropriate considering the predicament they are in where anything can strike at any moment. It's definitely harder to suspend belief in a dinosaur setting than an ancient tomb and I thought it was handled superbly via darkness in Dinosaur. Again though, I could be completely misreading TheDecemberists.
Everest is a dark coaster, and there were other dark coasters before it. I don't know why but it seems like every one concentrates on Orlando. There are other game changing rides in other parks. Mystery Mine is the best dark coaster I have ever rode.
The Amazing Adventure of SpiderMan > Indiana Jones > Jurassic Park River Adventure > Dinosaur
That is how I see it
Mystery Mine is phenomenal in the theme department but I really hated the coaster itself.
The Amazing Adventure of SpiderMan > Dinosaur > Indiana Jones Adventure > Jurassic Park River Adventure
I really liked the coaster too, but the story, scenes, and sets were just mind blowing.
Oops... I clicked thinking this was the Avatar thread. My bad. :inquisitive:
