They do have lots of rides families can ride together. Spiderman, Transformers, Minions Men in Black.


Dr. Dooms freefall isn't a family friendly ride and it's not a coaster. All I was trying to say is not every new attraction at Disney or Universal has to one that littles can ride. This is coming from some one who has a 1 year old little.


You will feel differently when you have to pay for a ticket for a child that won't ride coasters.
 
The idea I see the most is something like Secret Life of Pets - so more of a classic dark ride/all ages, not a screen based one

And yes, there is that path, but the location would let them cut off that path and fully absorb the theater into being fully part of the park
I don't know if they would want to give up a 1,000 seat theater that they can generate additional revenue from to the parks. I expect them to try everything they can to keep that property a revenue generator from City Walk.

Not to mention that with the exception of Minions, none of the rides listed are really family friendly to the age that would appreciated a Secret Lives of Pets ride. Heck, I don’t even like the Spider-Man, Transformers, or MIB rides.

Yep the first time we went my daughter was 7 and we thought Spider-Man would be ok. WRONG. She cried the entire time. She was ok on it last time at age 9. She didn’t start willingly riding thrill rides until age 8. And she still wouldn’t do Forbidden Journey last time even with a special backstage look by a TM there. She rode Hagrid’s and Gringott’s though.

Um, you need to be 40” to ride all these rides (MIB may be shorter but I’m pretty sure there is still a height requirement.) Not exactly for the whole family.

Some of what this thread is all about is in something I wrote in the New Year.

"Part-time informative, part-time sounding board, part-time therapy session, and almost always entertaining. In a way we all commiserate here and celebrate what good we can from the current state of affairs."

But in reality it's more than the above. It's somehow become an atypical dysfunctional family, in almost all the ways a family can be realized (and dysfunctional). Good and bad. Funny and sad. Happy and mad.

During COVID it has been a great stress reliever. Most of us are still in their homes, all over the world, waiting for the days when the pandemic subsides and we can normally get on with our lives and our visits to WDW. For some, the locking of this thread left a hole.

At the moment, folks here are sad, mad and bad. That will pass. Many will return, many will not. Those that are more comfortable here will continue to post.

Thanks for listening.
