Race Through NY Starring Jimmy Fallon

Probably less future maintenance required this way.

If it comes at the cost of guest experience though, is it worth the savings? That's the #1 complaint i've heard so far is the seats (aside from the ride being very mediocre).

Great to see the nod to the grand staircase. Perhaps it will be used as an escape in case of evac?

 

[TheBlackMamba]

I'll be there tomorrow. Do any of you think it will soft open then?

Probably.

I would think it's highly possible, but don't be surprised if it's closed or if you can't get on it as you enter the park.

Re: Seat Belts - I believe that could have been user error, as was the case during my ride. Family of 4 decided to ignore the "Unavailable Seats" and sit in them. When told moved to the right seats, the woman in the group said she didn't have one. TM asked politely to stand up and the woman assured she was not sitting on one. She was.....

Real quick thoughts -

Ride is smooth, but don't really feel rush of flying or racing. 3D top notch.
Plot during the last 3rd of the ride feels weird/off.
Queue is wonderful. Not elaborately themed like queue winners Kong or Potter, but probably their best queue experience to date.
I know it's not the end yet - but enough with the screens.
Fallon fans will love it. Theme Park fans may not.

Yes. Taylor Strickland OI owner gave a glowing comment of the entertainment. Said the entertainment was a big win for UC.

Is UC in charge of entertainment? I thought that was a separate entity

UC is also somewhat in charge of entertainment but multiple entities have their hands in that pot.

Does Race Through New York utilize screen technology?

Love hearing those words!

What's so great about the queue experience? What does it do that Kong or Potter doesn't?
Does it matter if somebody doesn't know anything about The Tonight Show, its characters, or its segments?

Is the queue entertainment reason enough to warrant this attractions existence?

Does hashtag the panda have a big presence? (Besides merch) And how wet do you get?

Do you see more plans for queue experiences like RTNY for future attractions and which existing attractions do you think would benefit from it?

Who says it's an OU Radio episode?

1.) How is the Visual Effect quality compared to other attractions on Property?

2.) What were you surprised about with the attraction?

3.) Do you think it may be possible for an update once Fallon takes his leave for a future replacement?

I am not convinced they went cheap on the interior of this attraction. Those Terrazzo ceramic hallway floors with brass and stainless inlay are quite snazzy.

Perhaps UC has come to figure out what guests will destroy first and it turns out to be the ride vehicles?
