Yes...it's true. The Hollywood Rip, Ride, Rockit (HR3) will be opening at the Studios this year.

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter is opening at IOA sometime in mid 2010. Lots of good things going on at Universal.

Harry Potter is going to be an entire land, not just one ride

Not yet but I would imagine Universal is working hard to have it ready by that same weekend. Let's hope anyway.

The official date for the coaster is still "Spring" 09. I do know that construction is right on schedule so hopefully it will open on time. It looks like it will be so cool!

Manta is the new B & M flying coaster at Sea World.

How big is Rip Ride Rocket meant to be?

Is it a tame version of the Hulk?

You mean the height? The Hulk is 110' and the HR3 will be 167'.

Jeez. I was expecting it to be smaller overall because it looks like a small space for the ride

There already is a tame version of Hulk. It's called Revenge of the Mummy.

Rockit will be taller than Hulk, about the same speed, and longer in ride time.
