I haven't been on it yet and am planning to go this fall. It seems most people are saying it's the best ride that they have ever been on, with a select few saying it's a huge disappointment.

From what I understand it's just a moving vehicle, with screens and 3D glasses which plenty of other rides have done before. It's not really a rollercoaster and there's no real drops or intense movements?

What makes it so unique and great without spoiling it? I'm guessing it's like Spiderman at islands of adventure? The cars look similar.
 
If. You are HP fan, wanted the thrill of venturing down to a underground bank vault with trolls ,dragons, and evil no gooders. Then this is "The ride" for you!

Then you would be wrong. This ride is unlike anything I have ever experienced. It is a mix between Spiderman, Transformers, The Mummy and Space Mountain. It has elements of all these attractions with the characters from the movies along for the ride. The 3D glasses are for the film parts of the ride and I am still not sure how they stay on. This ride has raised the bar for attractions to come. Now if they can get both sides running perhaps the lines would be better. IMHO
 
You will always get a "select few" who will find fault with anything.

By all accounts you will love it......my nephew made it on during opening few days and he loved it.....he didn't think he would but he did.

I'm sure you'll enjoy it :thumbsup2

Can you spell it out for someone who has never been to UO/IOA. I have never been on spiderman, Transformers or The Mummy. I do not want to see the videos of the ride but if you could describe it without using references to other UO rides, I would appreciate it.


TIA!

Actually, the cars are similar to Mummy, not Spiderman.

We are going to experience it for the first time in September. It really can't be compared to anything Disney. From my research, it is a hybrid ride...part coaster (a car that moves on a track), part physical sets with 3D screens embedded throughout. The car move fast at times, slow at times, and spins. Very high tech.
