  1. So people who bought the regular day ticket and became a passholder will not be included in the previews?
  2. Just renewed my pass last weekend to go to the Transformers preview. I've been waiting since 2008 to go on this thing. I'm going to try to be there early on Saturday to see this as I anticipate the park being near capacity. Just think about it. With Universal's "Buy a day, get a year free" deal going on, everyone going to the park right now and before the end of April is a passholder.
  3. Went to Universal Studios Hollywood yesterday with a few people I knew. As we were going down the escalators, they were talking about the Transformers ride. They were saying that they heard the Japan version was good. They were saying that Transformers was a roller coaster with loops that went 60mph. In a small building? Really? While I was waiting in the three-hour line for the new Space Mountain at Disneyland (It was opening weekend), one GP told me that the old SM was once a wooden roller coaster since it was so rough. I haven't been on Flight of Fear, but maybe the "roughness" may have been their consensus between a steel or a woodie. Top
  4. Well, I never got the chance to ride Mr. Freeze when it was still going forward. Oh well. Since Six Flags is apparently "backwardizing" their rides, at this rate, I could see Roaring Rapids: Reverse River opening up in a few years...
  5. Do you think it's possible Mad T Party could possibly be the next "Light Magic"?
  6. We can't really judge that for sure until we actually ride the thing. It could be just another case of "California airtime" for all we know. Would be nice if there actually was some descent airtime. *California airtime = little airtime.
  7. Why not do that and change the name to Green Mantis? Problem solved.
  8. Haven't gone, but it is POURING rain right now. I'd be surprised if the crowds were big.
  9. http://www.disneygossip.com/2012/03/great-big-beautiful-tomorrow.html So what do you guys think? I could see the Wall-E D-Ticket replace Stitch and Stark Expo or an Avatar ride replace Monsters Inc. Tomorrowland could really benefit from replacing those attractions (Haven't seen Monsters Inc. in person though).
  10. That sounds like something FunAndOnly would post. LOL If Full Throttle is anything close to this, I think it will be really good:
  11. ^What about Whipeout at Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk?
  12. The thing is, TRON: Legacy did gross a lot of money at the box office, but it just broke even domestically. While $172 million in the domestic market sounds like it did very well, it's not sounding too great when you add in the fact that it cost $170 million to make the whole movie...that's not even counting the ad campaign. Because of that, I wouldn't expect a TRON attraction to occupy TL (Occupy TL? ). I think Imagineers may have something else up their sleeves for the Innoventions building.
  13. A comment on the POV video for SFMM's Scream:
  14. What specific clues are you referring to? With the location, it could be either a giga or a blitz.
  15. On the POV video for SFDK's V2: Watch the video and find out???
  16. At La Fiera, have you gone inside the haunted walk-thru? If so, how was it?
  17. I'm sure a few rides are going to get the chopping block to make way for the new ones. That park is so darn small.
  18. I really don't think Knott's is going to add a Giga. For one reason, Matt Oumiet (Sorry for slaughtering his last name) is the new head of Cedar Fair and will be trying to focus more on a family audience. Secondly....hasn't been rumor been going on since the early/mid 00's? Call me crazy if you will, but I don't think Knott's is the kind of park to have a Giga. I don't want to see a thirty story monster looming over Ghost Town.
  19. This was on Disneyland's FB page when they posted a picture showing the map of DCA saying that some "New experiences are coming the park's way". One person responded to the photo saying,
  20. So how is the Earl of Sandwich? I've been to WDW four times in my life and I've never eaten there! Would any of you who have eaten there say that it is the equivalent of In-N-Out for sandwich shops?
  21. Glad to see that we (USH) will be getting an amazing ride that's unique to Orlando....sort of. Out of curiosity Rob, if you had to choose between Spiderman and Transformers, which version do you think has it better off?
  22. I agree. I have to cover my ears every single time I walk under Superman. As for Food Etc. being supposedly gutted...was it really? I was at Magic Mountain the same day you were and I saw quite a few people in there eating.
  23. You're correct. As far as I know, there is no law saying that there HAS to be OTSRs (Over the Shoulder Restraints) on any coaster with a loop (Look at Montezooma's). The lawyers insisted that SF put them on there so they did. Management has tried ever since to get rid of those clunky OTSRs, but OSHA law says that once a safety feature is in place, it CANNOT be removed for any reason whatsoever. Allow me to close this post with an appropriate Simpsons clip. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0u9JAt6gFqM
  24. Dont forget about Lex Luthor: DOD. Well, yeah. I meant besides that. I'm all for the retrack of Colossus. If they make the trains race again with ninety-degree turns, near-vertical drops, and several airtime hills like Texas Giant, I will have a new-found love for that ride. I think it's great the way it is, but giving it the Texas Giant treatment would make it way more exciting in my opinion.
