My vote went for the Hyper coaster car as they helped to give me the most memorable coaster experience ever. My first ever hyper was La Ronde's Goliath, which of course features the B&M Hyper cars. From the moment we left the lift hill, I was completely out of my seat, experiencing non-stop airtime until we hit the breaking run. That minute of airtime was pure bliss, with extra thanks towards the company that made the ride and the perfectly balanced cars.

^Yes. I do actually! As I am still in High School, I hang out with friends during the week and on the weekend, so the answer is yes- but just in case you were wondering, they all like to go to the parks too. So... about something that they didn't mention yet, but does anyone think that Disneyland is going to keep Rockin' Space Mountain as a night mode as it was originally planned for Rockit Mountain?

Is that meant to imply something or is that an accusation? I don't claim any information for myself thank you... Sorry, but I actually do know imagineers, as thats what happens when your father worked on the EPCOT Center opening day story for one of the news stations, plus I know people in Disney Marketing... I don't want to make this out to be a battle, because I don't feel any hostility, but I don't know if you were being serious or not... Plus, Miceage reported two weeks after I did...

How Much Longer Will Trips Be Available?

^I am already hyped up about the trip and it is still a year and a half away... -
Isn't it scary how Disney is turning to more Pixar films to "save" its parks... As a Floridian with Test Track, the prospect of a Cars themed ride utilizing the same technology as the World of Motion replacement seems like a bad idea, but I would probably be pretty excited if I didn't live in Florida where I could ride Test Track as many times as I wanted to. As for Midway Mania (now Toy Story Mania), I am both skeptic and curious, as I feel that the ride won't be all that intricate (but I am considered to be a real classic Disney fan because I like Dreamflight more than Buzz Lightyear). The whole light technology that Disney is using with the guns is pretty impressive as I have seen it used in a lower-tech version, and even that was impressive. From a regular visitor's perspective, this new attraction will be a hit, but for the Disney-babies (meaning that I have been living in Orlando and visiting Disney since I was born-not that I am a baby now) like myself, it won't really suprise me. So, as for the new park, I really think this is going to be interesting, as it definitely has the Mermaid Lagoon and a futuristic land similar to Port Discovery. As far as I knew, none of these areas or themes could be replicated due to the tight copyright deal set up between the OLC and Disney when DisneySea was built, but maybe the deal was negotiable, considering that we borrowed Cinderellabration (from Tokyo Disneyland) for the Happiest Celebration on Earth...

Well, that is true. But, the land will have much more of a use than just another district of Downtown Disney. I am guessing that the new area will include a Disney Village style area along with a large souvenir store like the one in Tokyo. Other than that, a new TTC, a new waterpark and a 5th gate are all in the works for "Wonder Way" (I mean Western Way!)
-
Well, if anyone noticed, the new park picture clearly depicts an updated version of DisneySea's Mermaid Lagoon along with a Port Discovery style land right above it (both on the far left side of the picture). The village on the right seems more like a European version of the fisherman's village on the face of the volcano from Mysterious Island. Western Way is the location for the next gate for Walt Disney World, but I don't think this one is coming to us just yet...

Concept for Jeep Safari

^ There really isn't enough room for a decent sized woodie (and please don't say that Cypress Garden's Triple Hurricane is decent sized) in Jurassic Park. Even if the new ride annexed the old Triceratops Encounter area, it wouldn't be enough to build a ride that the park would really endorse along the lines of the Suess Sky Trolley (as that was a pretty major addition for the park). I see more of some kind of flyer in the future for the park, but thats just me... -
^I don't think its that people didn't understand, but that you didn't start out the thread by explaining yourself well enough. Even Robb had to ask, and that shows that maybe you didn't give us all of the information we needed to start with. Anyways, I will continue to watch this project, as I myself am working towards a job in Imagineering at Disney, so these kinds of ideas always interest me...

I hope to do the Mainland Europe tour in 2008, but for some reason, my parents insist on keeping me inside of the country's borders... I have a year and a half to work on it, so I will try my best to get them to change their minds. -
Do I see any member-montaged shirts in the future? Too bad Yeti-ball is copyrighted, as he would make a good mascot too! I really do like the addition of "Magical" to the description of the TPR Hoodie. I love mine, as it is comfortable (really) and its recognizable. Who knows when you will end up sitting in the back row of Kraken and end up meeting another member of TPR... and it is probably easier to show them your hoodie, rather than taking a risk and saying, "By any chance, do you happen to be a member of Theme Park Review?"

^And that is why there was the controversy when California Screamin' broke down a couple of years back. The bracks malfunctioned (if I remember correctly) and Disney blamed the fault on Intamin, when Intamin responded by saying that this part of the coaster wasn't their responsibility as Disney had made its modifications when the ride was built.
