robbalvey Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 Does TDS's have a hallway? Yup. TDS's is pretty much the exact same ride system as DCA's and DSP's, just with a different "paint job." --Robb "But it's a really REALLY good paint job!"

Simba Posted December 9, 2007 Author Share Posted December 9, 2007 So, hopefully Paris' Tower is at least as good as DCA's. We're not yet sure if the drop sequence is the same. After watching an onride video of the DCA tower I can tell that this is the exact same drop sequence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIP Psyclone Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 ^I'm glad! I trust that they didn't make the drops "weaker" as they did at TDS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simba Posted December 10, 2007 Author Share Posted December 10, 2007 Nope it's not weak at all! the only thing that would be really cool is if they change it to be totally random like in florida, I guess that in 2017 they'll make a TOT mission II Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIP Psyclone Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 They've been supposed to do that at DCA for 2 years now. More drops would be good, but it does mean a longer line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the ghost Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 In the part when DCA's ride starts it goes backwards which was really awesome the first time I went on it. But then I remember the Florida version being a lot better. Do they all have the effect with the twilight zone door at the beginning like the one at DCA. And also is DCA's the only one that has like a one story drop before the big drop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pagemaster_b Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Great pictures thanks for posting. After comparing this new attraction to the one at DisneySea the difference is amazing, almost embarrassing for Disney. I find it interesting why they would spend so much money on the Tower in Japan and then pull this crap in Paris and CA. I mean the return on investment would seem to be comparatively the same or somewhat close. This is like comparing a Porsche to a Yugo. Japan has raised the bar and I view this latest Tower as "barely getting by" for Disney. My thoughts exactly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disney "raises the bar" at TDS for most everything because they aren't spending their own money, I think--the Tokyo resort is actually owned by the Oriental Land Company, correct?

DisneySea_Fan Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Does TDS's have a hallway? Yup. TDS's is pretty much the exact same ride system as DCA's and DSP's, just with a different "paint job." --Robb "But it's a really REALLY good paint job!" Alvey True, but its preshow and theming are far superior to the other versions. Its drop sequence is definitely the tamest, but I always felt that was due to the restraining seatbelts they have. But all that could be changed in the future, with reprogramming of the drop sequences to possibly a more intense and random version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECZenith Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Always good to see another Tower of Terror open up at a disney park. I like the fact that people can walk around all sides of the building to see all the detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildStangAlex Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Now that hallway seems really dumb to me. Why not make the hall part of the "Basement" then have the doors at the actual elevator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
