Is MIB like Buzz Lightyear?

[drj1950]

The date doesn't matter to me,I can always get off for the day but is October the 4th a set date? I know people may have trouble getting off on a Thursday.

 

[drj1950]

I just assume thats the only date Macraven has available.A new thread would be good

 

[macraven]

i'll be at UO for 5 days starting that thursday.
i stated meet up for thursday as i am excited to learn how to be a "pro" at MIB before the end of my trip......


i'll start a thread for a MIB meet up in september.

From the picture on the Universal site, it looks like MIB is like the Buzz ride at the MK. However, it has a height restriction of 42". So, I'm curious if it's scary or what the deal is (why does it have a height restriction). My 4yo is tall enough, but he's not the bravest kid on the block. He loves Buzz, but he's not into coasters or anything like that.

Thanks for the info.

ok opinon from a kid here when i was a little kid it scared me a lot a whole lot if your son doesnt like dark/bugs/bright flashes of light dont do it trust me

you definitely have to go when i go.
since you have never been on before, i might be able to kick your ****. well, i have to beat somebody don't i??


i'll make the thread in september and hopefully we can get as many possible there at the same time.
could even make it a poll to see which date would be best for everyone.

Hey Macraven, I'll ride with you! But I have to warn you I have never ridden MIB before. I have this little problem with spinning...exactly how bad is it? ( I had an anurism many years ago that burst and my doctor frowns on me riding anything that spins too much!) I tried Cat in the Hat last Dec.- our first trip there- and had a headache for hours! So would MIB be too much for me?

 

[macraven]

on section there is spinning of the cars and at the near end of the ride, there is spinning like cat in the hat.


do you think that will be too much for you?
if not, i'll save you a seat

 

[dsmom]

Thanks Mac! I'll try it once and see. But now I see someone mentioned flashing lights??!!! My son has elilepsy and can not do strobe or flashing lights- will this be a problem on MIB? My mom has a question for you also- how does the spinning in Spiderman compare to MIB? Thanks!

you know, i thought of that issue for you.
one of my sons takes meds for seizures. he has to up his dose the morning before the rides that have the strobe/flashing lights.

the flash of the picture that is taken of the group has not effected him at all though. the end of mib has spinning and you are in a fog type situation briefly, you will see some light effect but not enough to trigger a seizure.

the spinning for spidey i don't think is as forceful as MIB.
that's just my opinion but my son has not zoned out on the rides.

i'm trying to think of all the rides that have flashing lights. i can list some but in case i miss anything, i don't want to cause you and the fam a problem.
you might want to send an email to guest services. tell them your son can't be in any attraction that has flashing lights as it triggers seizures.

they can give you a list of rides that you might have to avoid.
contact them in advance so you can plan ahead of what rides to avoid in order to not have disappointment.

OMG I love MIB, I could talk about it all day! My family has to drag me away. We are very competitive too. We don't even like to ride together because we shoot at the same targets! If someone in my car shot at our own port I would probably throw them out!! Because then I can't shoot at my favorite little parking meter!

The only 2 places that are tough for me are when you are going down the corridor when he says "don't shoot, don't shoot". I don't know what to shoot at before he says "fire!". I shoot at him. The other place is the last turn at the very end before he says "oh no, only one thing left to do...". I can't find anything there. I usually just turn around and try to shoot back behind me.

After you've ridden MIB, Buzz seems like IASW.

At the six against one you have to shoot the guns in the aliens hands as they come out of the trash cans (10000 points a hit,one time shot)How are the other members of your family scoring?

actually there are sensors on the widow grating. very hard to see. in the left lane the window to the left at about 11 o'clock just above the aliens head. in the right lane dead ahead just above the aliens that spins head is a sensor

Once you have made the turn for the "big bug" there is nothing to shoot at since the sensors in the bug are not working. going for an exhaust port behind you is a good idea but you have a very small window of opportunity

There are a few sensors on the aliens themselves but you have such a short period of time to find them. I usually shoots the guns as well. It is easier.
