the ghost Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 I just saw a video on youtube that showed Rockin' Rollercoaster, Space Mountain Mission 2, and the Indy that goes upside down, so basically what I am asking is are there really three rides in a Disney park that all contain inversions? I live in So Cal so I have been on California Screamin' which is probably one of my favorite coasters, and I can say the same about the Rockin' Rollercoaster in Florida, but if Disney wants to make more money it should do this to every park. The Hollywood area of CA would be so perfect for Rockin' Rollercoaster. Oh well, at least we may get Carland in California and from what I saw the concept art was really cool. Probably just wishful thinking. CJ "really wish we had a Disney park with 3 rides that go upside down" Morton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECZenith Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Disney will make money no matter what new attractions they add. I agree in that I love coasters with inversions but you have to remember, Disney rides are aimed at families, many of which are turned off by rollercoasters that go upside down. Disneyland Paris has a surprising amount of coaster inversions in it, I agree and I wish we'd see more in the states but you never know, it could happen. I wouldn't count on a Rockin' Roller Coaster to be added to DCA, there's been a rumor floating around that DCA's next coaster would replace Mulholland Madness and be a clone of Disney Studios' "Crush's Coaster", but it's just that a rumor... < I agree that Carland looks pretty cool.

Louise Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Yes, Disneyland Paris does have the three inverting coasters, but regardless of that, I'd take Magic Kingdom and MGM over DLP any day of the week. Disney has to appeal to EVERYBODY, old, young, male, female, etc. As ^ said, having too many inversions is likely to *slightly* put off some of the family market. As long as they have one or two thrill-rides (and inversions do not necessarily equal thrills, neither does an inversion-less ride equate to boredom), they're satisfying much of the market.

rollerdude Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Not only do all the roller coasters have inversions, but they are all good. For being a Vekoma, I LOVED Space Mountain and R&RC has much better theming. I got to ride Indy 4 times in about a half an hour. It was pretty much a wild mouse on drugs. I was at Disneyland in SoCal when I was a baby, so I don't remember it, but WDW had enough thrills for me when I was eight. I would probably disagree now that I have been to DLP cause it has more thrills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkMeasures Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 Isn't Indy more like a Looping Star on steroids? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sio Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 Indy is the perfect clone of it: It's TL59 at Tivoliland (Denmark) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raiden Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 So Indy is a clone of space mountain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axman Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 What!? No! DLP Indiana Jones is Intamin's carbon copy of the Pinfari looping star. SM:M2 is this rouge, launch-lift coaster. The kind of ride it is, seems to be a lot like Rockin' Rollercoaster. I could never figure out how DLP ended up with two lunching, 3-inversion, indoor, Vekoma, looping, coasters. ^^ Is it me, is is that particular Looping Star bigger than most? The ones in Oregon and Kentucky are smaller. There must be 2 models or something... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gax Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 Ive visited DLP quite a few times and never have found Space Mountain to be THAT rough, and Rock n roller coaster is a really different ride, they might be similar in a lot of ways but they still just feel different. Indiana Jones i really don't like, it feels rough, painful and isn't really very fun except the loop which is ok. Ive always considered Paris as the more 'mature' disney park.. But I do belive that the Magic Kingdom at paris is second to none, phantom manor is easil the best haunted house ive ever ridden, BTM is amazing, and the theming is, in my opinion, better than any other disney park.

America Sings Freak Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 I think that If I had to choose one Disney park to go to it would be DLP, because I am obsessed with good theming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axman Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 It's looks pretty cool. I love BTM's location, and their Space Mountain is so colorful! Plus, they're tied with Disnelyland for most Magic Kingdom credtis. Disneyland's MK will always be my favorite, though. Matterhorn and Indiana Jones: The Temple of Peril are awsome, signature rides that are exclusive to DLC. California Screamin is the best Disney coaster I've been on that isn't linked to any sentimental value. As far as a strait-up ride, its the best around.
