It has been a while since I have posted on this thread since I have been away in Utah these last couple of weeks. Now I have time to reply to your posts. It just has been crazy this last month.
Thanks for the pics. I think I'm going to pass on that ride. I really don't like drop rides at all.
You and I are in the same boat PiO. I don't like drop rides like the ToT. The new GotGMB ride is nice but with all those drops which seem more than the old ToT version, I did not enjoy the drop part. The only part I did enjoy was the pre-show with Rocket.
Hi Bret,
I was happy to read this review of the new GoGMBO ride. My family and I will be at DL and DCA starting next week for 8 glorious days. I'm sure we'll be riding this ride a few times. I would like to also go to DL/DCA for the food and wine festival some year. I enjoyed your report and pictures from this. Bummer that work is preventing you from going to
D23 this year.
Hi TK,
Hope you and your family had a great time at the DLR last month. You will enjoy the DCA F&W Festival. Not as good as Epcot's but it is still good. It is a bummer that I won't attend the D23 Expo in a week which is getting there.
I'm so glad that I rode the ride before I read this. You got some great pictures on the ride itself. I have no idea what song I got when I rode it last week.
I have a night where I'll be staying overnight at the Grand next week and I think I may do rope drop to ride the ride standby so that I can go through the queue with a minimal wait. Like you I would have liked the wait time to be a bit longer because I went right into the preshow from the fast pass line.
I thought the AA rocket was incredible too, and I laughed at the abominable snowman!
Thanks for sharing! We aren't going to D23 this year either, but it's a good thing we don't have $10K to spend on stuff and you know how Fran gets when she is excited and finds merchandise.
The wait time was crazy when I was there in late May/early June. Thank you Alison. I looked it up online and it showed what type of songs are used during each ride experience. I am not a fan of GotG.
I will have to catch up on your TR's since I have been away. Hope you and Fran had a good time when you were at the GCH last month and were able to ride it during rope drop. The rope drop was crazy with going in all those different parts of Hollywood Land and backstage.
The AA was the best part for me. It was kind of weird to see the abominable snowman in the queue.
I see. I remember at the last Expo that you weren't planning on going but did show up on that Friday. If you are able to do a last second trip like the last one, I will look forward to reading about it on your TR. You are right that Fran will go spending crazy at the Expo.
You did a whiz bang job at your write up for this ride! I'm in the camp of haters of Disney for taking out ToT. ToT was a BIG part of my childhood and I"m really sad they took it out. I wished they'd left a very good ride alone.
But, I"m willing to give this one a try, only because I DO like drop rides a lot. Marvel is growing on me so, I'll give it a fair shake.
Thank you Liesa. I am not a fan of ToT or the new GotGMB ride. It will be interesting how long the popularity of the ride will go on.
Marvel is okay but I don't like it a the Disney Parks. I am more use to it at Universal Parks.
Hi Sherry. I haven't see you post on the thread for quite some time and glad to see you back on.
