SharkTums Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 I mean, it's like they're trying to turn it into Rock n Roller Coaster, but the plot doesn't work, and there's so much talking cause of the lift hills, it's just horrible!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vjgx Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 That just looks... really awkward. Seriously... That was a bad move on Disney's part. California Screamin' should be okay... but Space Mountain was NOT made for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easytoremember Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 So what did they try and do here? Make a combination of Space mountain and rockin rollercoaster. What ever they did looks kinda lame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exmouse Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Don't like the radio host element to the sound track. Can't really tell much from the video as to what the new effects are like but the music doesn't really suit at all. Really need to be something a bit more sci fi or dancey. It seems a poor mans retro fit rock n roller coaster. I love RnR with the Love in an Elevator train. Dropping off the mid course brakes with the line "going down" works so well.

TheBannedKid Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 It's still better than the WDW Space Mountain... No, it pretty much sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exmouse Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Robb why not add traffic to this video instead Much better quality as you can see the special effects more clearly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't work in Universe of Energy over at Epcot either. I think Disney has a radio host obsession when it comes to rides that they are trying to update...

MisterP Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 At least they didn't pick any of the Jesus..god..awful Chili Peppers music produced since that 1989 album (except maybe Blood SugarSexMagic in '91). Seriously.....did another band ever go from the penthouse to the sh*thouse as violently as these sellouts?!?!? Now Disney?!?! Are these the same guys who played their live shows with tube socks over their genitalia in the 1980s?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niiicolaaah Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Seriously.....did another band ever go from the penthouse to the sh*thouse as violently as these sellouts?!?!? How about Green Day? ::goes to check out the video:: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cheat Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 I mean, it's like they're trying to turn it into Rock n Roller Coaster, but the plot doesn't work, and there's so much talking cause of the lift hills, it's just horrible!!!! The plot is AMAZING!! You go into space and you listen to a concert while you watch people dance on walls and they shoot some light in your eye. I love it.

DATman Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 ^^^ Episode 1 had a plot? Since when? I think that, while the radio host is really terrible, the effects look like they'd be a lot of fun. I honestly think we really can't judgefrom a video, as a dark roller coaster never really gives a good POV... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenshinmac Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Is this permanent or is it going to be evenings only eventually? If it is permanent it sucks... If it is evenings only I'm ok with it... Hopefully they are gonna get better fitting music eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wes Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 ^ It's only scheduled to be around for four months, from now til' April. I think they know it's not a great addition, so they're just doing it in the off-season to drum up more local attendance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alvey Robb, do you seriously think the florida version is better? It is so much rougher. Anyhow - the change looks terrible and I hate the new announcer.
