Studio Tour's Fast & Furious: Supercharged (Closing March 10)

[Pacific]

I mean, Shaw literally screams "Call in the drones!" Doesn’t make the scenario much less absurd, but I expect absurdity from Fast and Furious lol. I just roll my eyes

I'm gonna be so real, everytime I've ridden it, I have literally no idea what's happening and I can't hear squat. I just want it to end.

Edit: Oml I didn't realize Orlando uses the exact same key art as Hollywood. All they did was draw over the tram, lmao.

I love being here every time someone finds this out lol.

I think F&F Supercharged was a victim of "too much of a good thing". I think at the time, Universal got cocky from a (what was at the time) a very positive response from King Kong 3D.

So of course, instead of trying something new, they made the classic error of "If people love this, let's give them more." And now you basically have two of the same concept in the same tram tour. Which nearly made it pointless from day one.

The ride is just so fundamentally unserious and cheesy, and not in a good way that mirrors the films playfulness.

I think that's exemplified by the following thought experiment. If every single actor in Supercharged was replaced by a minion just speaking the exact same lines in gibberish but with subtitles, it would immediately be a better ride for the simple reason that the tone would fit perfectly. (And I absolutely *detest* the minions.)

Vin Diesel clinging onto a drone and doing awkward CGI acrobatics to save the day? Silly. Bob hanging onto a drone screaming and accidentally causing it to crash? Comedic genius. It just underscores how poorly the story beats of the ride work that the MINIONS would improve your overall coherency and fun factor.
