Most overrated ride and underrated ride?

[Disxuni]

Just wanting people's opinions on what people might consider to be an overrated ride, or attraction and the same for an underrated attraction, or ride, and why, of course.

I think Simpsons is pretty over rated.... But I get sick on it so I'm a little biased.

Underrated? ET? haha but again, I'm biased. I love it and I really have no idea why! I think many of the shows are underrated and lots of people just skip them. I recommend watching all of the shows at least once.

Underrated = Poseidon's Fury
Overrated = Harry Potter Forbidden Journey

Overrated - I'm not a an of transformers, prefer spiderman.

Underrated - red fish blue fish. Very fun with the song and water squirting and loved the fact they had a 3 person fish for us all

You are totally going to get biased answers, but you did ask for opinions.

Personally, I LOVE Simpoons and Forbidden Journey (2 of my faves) and I can't stand Poeidon.

Love ET though, nostalgia and that walk through indoor forest is AMAZING!

Tough for me to answer because I really don't know how highly or not-so-highly regarded the rides at Universal are seeing as I'm not as experienced as most on here. But if we're using wait times as the main gauge of popularity, then I'd definitely say HE is most overrated to me. For underrated, I'd probably agree with those who said ET.

As a side note, I know it's pretty popular but River Adventure is my 2nd favorite ride at any park anywhere. I rode it on MLK Jr. day this year when it was about 55 degrees out, lol. So in that regard I'd have to call it "underrated" as well.

The only ride I have never done is Poseidon's, now enough of you are making want to do it. We always stay onsite, so we have EP, but still have never done it!!!!

Overrated - RRR and old Hulk (but I am an annual passholder at Cedar Point, tough to get excited about meh coasters)
Underrated - ET (sorry, opinion, but to those who compare this to Peter Pan - mild curse words at you!!!)

I am a Cedar Fair Platinum pass holder myself. My home park is Kings Island but I go to Cedar Point every year and have visited most of CF's large parks (except for Knotts and Canada's Wonderland), but I still find RRR and Hulk to be great coasters. Dragon Challenge, not so much...

 

[VacaPlanner2012]

We ride them, but I will take Millenium and Diamondback over them every day of the week and twice on Sunday. Bigger, faster, and much smoother...but I will definitely ride the new Hulk in hopes of a smoother ride!!!!

I will say I am a bit jealous, I get down to Kings Island once a year (the reverse situation of you), and I would pick Diamondback if I could only ride one coaster again in my life!!!

Overrated: Simpsons for sure. This ride made me feel pretty sick.
Underrated: ET!

 

[Jessica0711]

Underrated - High in the Sky Seuss Troley Train Ride ... You get some really great views of IOA on that ride.

Overrated - I'd say Simpsons as well. Like others I have felt pretty sick coming off of this ride.

It's probably just because of the fly over. That's my favorite part in both! Haha ET is a classic dark ride though! I can hear the squeal of the ride system now.... aww ET.... BRING ME HOME.

Poseidon's is great! It's a guided tour show... so you're standing the whole time, but also moving. They only do shows every... um 30 minutes? So be mindful that if you get in line as soon as the show before you goes in you WILL be waiting in line a bit. I never mind.. it's dark and AC... always gets rid of my sun headache. If the water feature isn't on in the final movement to the last area make sure you ride the next trip. It makes the whole thing for me!

overrated : Hulk (before it was torn down). You had 15 seconds of "yeeehaaaa !!!" at the start, then spent the rest of the ride like "are we there yet ?". Vote might change with the new version (doubtful, but keeping an open mind)

underrated : Men in Black.
