Universal’s Next Big Ride: What Could Replace Rip Ride Rocket?

[@d.j.klefeker9207]

38:31 I think Beetlejuice would work great as a themed dark ride.

[@cameronlightsey6633]

Definitely thinking it's Fast & Furious…It just makes more sense being a rollercoaster, it’s more real world based like most things in that park, it opens up the SuperCharged space & makes sense thematically imo just because those films are all over the world. That said I wouldn't be mad at a Ghostbusters or BTF coaster at all lol. So hyped for this 🔥

[@artapples8417]

For me a Ghostbusters coaster would work better being all indoors for the purpose of the ghost effects, similar to the Guardians coaster in Epcot.

[@HollywoodandWine101]

@@artapples8417 I could see it working a la velocicoaster. A brief indoor show scene followed by a fun layout. Maybe the possessor ghost from frozen empire gets into the ecto1 making it go all over the place.

[@d.j.klefeker9207]

1:49 Maurer AG does still make roller coasters. I believe the train model used on Rip Ride Rockit was a prototype.

[@firstlast1732]

Just came back from Disney it was one of the worst trips I’ve ever had I cannot believe how it all changed she was my favorite place now I would not go back unless it was free

[@rileyfam]

Great channel, I really enjoyed your reactions. I love the retro possibilities. I'd like to see Epic expand into a retro land bringing back Ghostbusters, Jaws, Back to the Future......

[@capthemagic]

It would be an interesting concept to have a whole land of retro rides... I'm not holding my breath it will happen but I think it would actually be really successful

[@metallicnole4514]

I wish we had that instead of a 3rd Harry Potter land

[@MikeFromOKOtter]

A Ninja Turtles ride in New York would be my vote. Not sure who has rights to it though. The new TMNT movie was really good. A queue down through the sewers would be fun. Have some good dark ride elements throughout. And going up into the city would be the thrilling parts

[@d.j.klefeker9207]

1:40 It was Maurer AG.

[@d.j.klefeker9207]

37:42 The used to be a stage show in the New York section where the Ghostbusters would meet Beetlejuice.

[@d.j.klefeker9207]

42:47 Agreed

[@SS-or7mz]

I want the graveyard review back! I miss that show!

[@UndeadNerdT800]

I don’t think ghostbusters failed 😏 BTW if jaws can be popular so can ghostbusters

[@HollywoodandWine101]

What we need to see is the merch sales numbers. Plus universal has waterworld still. Jason Bourne isn’t nearly as relevant. But universal made good attractions to start with that the IP is a secondary thing. Disney should take notes.

[@kevincaywood]

Definitely want Jaws to come back in some sort of fashion. Either a dark ride or revamp of the previous ride!

[@HollywoodandWine101]

@@kevincaywood I got it! Universal can do The Greatest Movie Ride. Definitely not based on any older rides. with jaws, bttf, and so much more! 😏

[@d.j.klefeker9207]

The Back To The Future ride was at one point going to be a rollercoaster instead of a motion simulator attraction.

[@kevincaywood]

Back when Ghostbusters was being rumored to become a House for this past HHN Season. The rumor was Universal struck a deal with the producers of the series to bring more Ghostbusters to Universal. Since the firehouse was a previous Ghostbusters attraction and something is coming. My vote is for Ghostbusters

[@d.j.klefeker9207]

I might try to ride when I'm at Universal in July.

[@Neemo2314]

Gotta get back in time !!!

[@michaelcjgreenway4788]

I'd like to see the original intention of a Hollywood Dream clone as a replacement. That's just a cool all around coaster to me.

[@josieOrlandoIsBest]

BTTF would be fab, soooo gutted when they closed it! 😢

[@abricO6]

BTF coaster would go so hard but if they make a FF ride then supercharged hopefully closes to make room for some better screen ride.

[@capthemagic]

Agreed

[@ericstratten5653]

Apollo 13 movie coaster. Starts out great, and things go awry at the end... Perfect Universal ride story!!

[@robertporter6641]

If they actually wanted to do anything with Beetlejuice, using Fear Factor Live as a location for a stage show is how you do it

[@capthemagic]

Would make the most sense and still keep that for the HHN show there

[@robertporter6641]

@ and after Wicked was mentioned, I think that would be a great idea for a show in the Fear Factor theater as well.

[@hollybabyyy]

They could to BTTF or twisters

[@steveniglesias2508]

Watch El Toro Ryan's Problematic Coasters Video on Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit... I knew about some of the problems but had absolutely no idea just how many problems it had.

[@capthemagic]

I think I’ve seen that video before so that could have been where I remember hearing about all the issues with that ride

[@JD-ef1jb]

My personal opinion: Most Likely : F&F Drift coaster. Esp since the coaster wouldn't open til 2027 which would coordinate with his other video about closing Supercharged in 2027 to expand D Alley. Most Appealing imo : Back to the Future. That would be so epic and would somewhat make up for replacing B2TF with Simpsons. And yes Hagrid's is an AMAZING coaster. One of the best. However, it took over a year to work out all the kinks. So Intamin doesn't have a perfect record. VCoaster kind of redeemed them since it actually worked from day 1.

[@robertpolk9910]

RRR was manufactured by Maurer Rides. They are still making new coasters, mostly overseas.

[@ducktails1695]

So glad this coaster going away. It's very rough and it's just not a great coaster IMO. It's just brake run city. They can't really build much backstage because of the Hogwarts Express. I know people keep saying they have all this extra land now but they really don't. Stardust Racers will probably be a very popular coaster and it's also not based on an IP. I think it makes more sense to build F&F as they could then not only replace RRR with a good IP based coaster, they could also replace a terrible attraction. This would also give Diagon Alley more room to expand in the future as they could expand leftward instead of to the right, taking over Fear Factor stage which is a much smaller plot of land. People just need to calm down on this Wicked crap. Yes, it's popular at the moment, but lots of movies are that long term just fade away and not every single movie needs to have an attraction made out of it.

[@HollywoodandWine101]

If they do fast and furious I’d rather see a new land maybe replacing men in black and fear factor. It can be themes to Tokyo and have a Tokyo drift coaster and a Godzilla attraction.

[@universalorlandochica]

Please, no, not Fast and the Furious We good

[@Neemo2314]

BTTF!!!!!

[@joshua_itssme]

The brand is so bad of it is fast and furious I’ll be very disappointed

[@brian8928]

😆🤣🤣 the brand is so bad but yet it made Universal $714.57 Million Dollars. What’s your definition of so bad.

[@joshua_itssme]

@ that’s fuck all 😂 they’ve made much more on other shit 😂

[@brian8928]

@ it’s $1 billion franchise so I don’t understand how you say. The brand is bad and get ready to be disappointed.😂😂

[@joshua_itssme]

@ doesn’t make the movies good, makes the financially successful yes but appeal no.

[@brian8928]

@@joshua_itssmeohhh well😆 they have to get rid of super charged and since Universal Hollywood getting one. Universal Orlando will be getting F&F roller coaster but a different version for Orlando
