Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

[s8film40]

Personally, I think Fallon is going to far outshine F&F.

I'm personally looking forward to Fallon far more than F&F. If F&F is a similar ride system to Kong, while I think Kong is a great ride I do not think it will work well for that ride. One of the things I like best about Kong is the ride vehicle, it's perfect fit for the story. For F&F I expect to be in a CAR.

Oh, I wanted to ask, what are the restraints like? Will a larger person be able to ride?

There are no restraints.

Are they seriously considering putting us in a ROK Vehicle for F&F?

I have no idea. There was discussion on here of them being a very similar ride system as they are essentially both based on the 360 things for the Hollywood tram. I think it works really well for Kong, F&F not so much.

I couldn't care less about Fallon or F&F. I'll prob only give Fallon 1 ride just so I can say I did it. It's a really bad idea, he's a tool. F&F could be fun if it actually involved real speed, but it wont.

Next soft I'm excited for is Nintendo. Come on 2020. If it even opens by then.

Personally i think following KONG with any screen based attraction is a poor choice but that's just me.

How many times am I going to have to scramble my brain squinting and trying to focus of screen action.....

Especially for F&F there is so much potential for a race through the streets and drifting with 'light' screen integration for depth (think old Kong but street racing )

Please use the lot for something besides a big warehouse for a damn screen.

I think your sentiments are that of the majority of people, this ride vehicle works well for Kong...a big bus load of people for Fast N Furious? Poor choice. I want smaller, faster vehicles that actually resemble something from the Furious Franchise. I hope plans for this ride have changed.

Kong on the other hand, is a pretty good ride and a very welcome addition to IOA. In the long run I'm glad it's in this park over Studios. The last thing USF needs is another screen based 3-D ride.

you mean 6 screen based 3D attractions in one park are too many?

 

[Teebin]

a big bus load of people for Fast N Furious?

I have already told everyone here that isn't the plan. It would be two smaller vehicles running in near tandem. This was the original plan.

 

[Parkscope Joe]

Aaaaaaaaand back to Kong please. We have F&F and Fallon threads for that sort of discussion.

You mean like two small buses.

[TTARider]

[JoeCamel]

[Teebin]

And now, it is pouring out there. They have likely taken the show indoors at this point.

 

[Mike S]

Honestly, I'm excited for F&F and Jimmy Fallon. A new attraction is always exciting for me.
Although, I will miss Christopher Walken.

Christopher Walken is the best. Loved hearing him sing as Louie

 

[Teebin]

This poor attraction... even I am at the end of my rope here. What is it that they can't figure out??? This attraction isn't nearly as complicated as Gringotts.
