The Simpsons Ride

[JamieSimms91]

Hey fellow Universal blogger's its JamieSimms91 once again havent started a new thread recently, so here it is.

Ive rode this attraction many times since it has opened and i believe that apart from the Revenge of the mummy and other attractions this could be the best one.

I just wanted to see peoples reviews of the ride many thanks Jamie

The Simpsons is fun but won't take the first place prize from RoTM on my list. I stopped riding BTTF because of the ride vehicles and being 6'2" it's murder on your head if you're in the back. The Simpsons uses the same vehicles so nothing has changed for me. So for me it's fun but nothing special.

I really liked the Simpsons ride, too- it was absolutely amazing!!

Unfortunately I had a stomach virus the days that we were at Universal and after I got off, I got really sick so I could only ride it once. My kids rode it three times, though and was easily their favorite

I definitely put this as one of the tops at Studios. I'm reserving the top spot as I have not rode Rip yet

I miss BTTF but feel they did a great job with this one. I enjoy the final queue area with all the characters. I think it was a great touch. I try to always ride this 2 times per park entry.

I still love spiderman the most, is it ok to include that even though its not in studios?

I think it's pretty fun to do once in awhile. I just dislike the loooong time it seems to take to get inside, along with having to wait inside as well. I think the Horror Make-Up Show will always be my favorite attraction.

I strongly disliked this ride. The reasons, which are perhaps a little unfair, are:

1. The queue time for us was terible. It was posted as a 30 minute wait, so after seeing 60 minute all day, we decided to give it a try. After being in the queue for 20 minutes and being nowhere near the entrance, we were getting a bit frustrated. Then, finally, we heard them say on the PA that one of the ride vehicles was down, so they had to run at less than full capacity...we ended up being in the line for an hour, just outside the buidling. Then, once we were sent inside the building to the next waiting area, that took another 10-15 minutes. It was a case of bad luck, but it was a big disappointment, especially with the ride being newer, but not brand new, at the time (this was last summer).

2. I didn't know exactly what to expect, so I was hesitant to go on this in the first place (I have really bad motion sickness), and with the queue and buidling themed like a carnival or theme park land, I had a feeling what I was getting myself in to. I had to keep my eyes closed most of the time!

3. The vehicle was extremely rough!!!

I think I may be a little biased as well in my reasons for not liking it.

But I felt AWFUL when I got off, so much so a TM helped me as I thought I was going to be very ill.
It was just so rough and juddery (is that a word?) and I would definately not go on it again.
I`m fine on Spiderman, have no issues with motion dizziness on that at all but this one, Never again.

DH and DS thought it was alright, said they wouldn`t queue any length of time for it if we hadn`t had the pass with the room key.
