[@Danieljosol]

7:53 - To defend Velocicoaster, it plays with 'Velociraptor', but it also plays with 'Velocity', which matches the vibes of the coaster given that you go from 0 to 50 mph and then 50 to 70 mph. So the name works out for it in my opinion. Also, add to the fact that you're in a velociraptor pen, there's velociraptor animatronics in the queue, and there's a velociraptor scent they developed to give you that feeling. Incredicoaster on the other hand... i dont know wtf they were doing with that...

[@phoebesunbook1737]

ya to be completely honest when the velocicoaster opened i didn't know that it belonged to jurassic world (somehow lol, i don't know how i missed that) and thought it was just the play on velocity because it was super fast

[@powerpup97]

I agree with the "Adventure" trend. It's getting a little tiresome. You could also include "Snow White's Scary Adventure", even though it's not called that anymore. And if you want to include the rides in Disney World, there's also "Elsa's Frozen Adventure" and "Remy's Ratatouille Adventure". They might as well put them all in ADVENTURE-Land! If I was to create a Raya and the Last Dragon ride, I would call it "Raya and Sisu's Kumandra Trek". What do you think of that name?

[@rainyrouge5123]

Someone at Disney needs to put a ban on putting "Adventure" in ride titles. Also, maybe a ban on colons.

[@STORMX97]

I forgot that movie came out

[@drdewott9154]

I probably wouldn't even put Raya and Sisu in the title of an attraction if a Raya and the last dragon ride was ever made.

[@rct3isepic]

I gotta disagree that Velocicoaster is a bad name. It’s a pun on velociraptor which works because you’re essentially only changing one syllable. Also it perfectly sums up the ride experience of a roller coaster in a raptor paddock.

[@elevenb6967]

Completely agree with you.

[@themeparknerd643]

I'm glad you like it but both raptor and coaster are two syllable words

[@candidwings5609]

The "tor" and "ter" in those words are pronounced the same every time I've heard them, though. So it is only the "rap" and "coas" that are phonetically different. I can see why you'd dislike it though

[@brickman409]

​@@themeparknerd643 true, but they both share one of those syllables, so if you swap one for the other, you're only changing one of the syllables.

[@thebeanyboi8572]

agreed, lol. i think it fits with the vibe that it is supposed to be set within the jurassic world park, and honestly i don't imagine the JW higher ups would be good at naming things, and would like something short and cool sounding (ie, the gyrosphere in the movie). also veloci, like in velocity? i do really agree with you and your points, was just expanding on them haha. though i may be biased toward velocicoaster, i absolutely LOVE that ride.

[@peppermintpsaki1157]

I gotta disagree about the IncrediCoaster: it’s congruent with the movie: Bob routinely put “incredi” in front of everything, including his IncrediCar. His fanboy Buddy wanted to be IncrediBoy, etc. As far as “coaster type”, my best guess based on my experience working at six flags: it’s less that they’re commitment phobic and it’s more about trying to mitigate the stupidity of the guests. I can totally imagine guests asking what kind of ride that coaster is, you can tell them it’s a coaster, and somehow will still get confused until they’re told it’s a coaster TYPE ride. Then they’d be “ohhhhhhhh”. I know because I had to go through this same thing with guests on a water ride who were confused it was a water ride….despite the watery name, all the signs, all the wet people passing them on the way out, all the splashes in the queue they’re standing in. IT DIDN’T CLICK UNTIL I TOLD THEM. Yea, guests are THAT DUMB. I can tell you of guests so stupid, they make those water dummies look like Rhodes scholars. What’s worse imo is going to a burger place for a burger and they weirdly keep referring to them as “sandwiches”. I think it’s called Tiana’s bayou adventure, because the name is the only place that “adventure” exists on that ride. I’ve seen the POV sneak preview, it’s boring af. BTW: I’ve been to Louisiana, there are no mountains in the bayou, no tall trees either, the bayou is basically a bowl of soup BELOW sea level (which was why Katrina was so especially devastating to them). Even Bob Iger complained that TBA is boring, that’s huge coming from him 🤭

[@dragonlord564]

I feel you could compromise by just calling it The Incredible Coaster

[@edwardmontigu5321]

They should have called emotional whirlwind “The MoodSwings” 😂😂😂😂

[@virgovirtuoso]

What I hate about losing Disney Fast Pass as a in-park term is that it was similar to the terminology used on Disney DVDs to skip the trailers before the main menu: Fast Play. I have such a distinct memory of a deep male voice going "These features and [da da da i forget] are enhanced with Disney's Fast Play!...[some more speech but I'd usually skip by now]" whenever I'd pop in Sleeping Beauty on DVD. Makes me sad that not only are so many companies cutting out physical media like DVDs but they have so little faith in creatives to name a property beyond what its Amazon listing would look like.

[@mizzsparkle3421]

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is void of excitement and creativity.

[@zarlus8]

The reason you're getting "lazy names" is because marketing is in charge. Individual marketers can be creative and imaginative, but the industry as a whole treats consumers as needing to be told exactly how and what to think. "We" have to be told it's an adventure because otherwise we wouldn't associate the excitement of adventure if we aren't primed to think about adventure before sitting in dark rooms on a railcar. We aren't allowed to have nuance, subtly, and interpretation. It can also be compounded with decisions makers not typically being inherently creative. Making it difficult for them to understand that we the audience/consumer can have thoughts beyond being told explicitly what to think. So since they need to have the idea of adventure at the forefront, so do we. You can replace "adventure" with any other adjective, call to action, or emotional verbiage you like. Also IP enforcement (that's a big one too). It's all crafted and engineered.

[@JonahHenrickson]

Honestly, I have to agree. “Spider-Man: W.E.B. Slingers” sounds a lot better :)

[@nerktwin]

The most irritating attraction name to me (that I'm shocked wasn't mentioned) is "Guardians of the Galaxy - Mission: BREAKOUT!" I mean... What the hell is that? A hyphen AND a colon? 'Guardians of the Galaxy' is already a mouthful, and 'Guardians' is sorta the only way to shorten it. Meanwhile "Tower of Terror" flows off the tongue incredibly well.

Fixing the name rides: Micky and Minnie’s Railway Rush Rise of the Resistance is fine by itself. You’re already in the Star Wars land, so people will know it’s a Star Wars ride Millennium Falcon’s Flight Snow White’s Wish Tiana’s Bayou Bash or Swamp/ Spice Mountain Inside Out: MindSpinners Ferris-wheel Frolic or Frolicking Ferris Incredibles, the Ride Velociraptor Run Hagrid’s Crash Course Spiderman: Webslingers Ariel’s Voyage

[@rainyrouge5123]

I think Runaway Railway is fine. The plot of the ride is there's a runaway train so I think the original name suits it better. Swamp Mountain sounds a little weird to me and I don't get what Spice Mountain is even supposed to be. Tiana's Bayou Bash sounds really good and I saw someone else in the comments recommend Tiana's Bayou Splash, just to keep "Splash" in the name as there is a splash at the end of the ride. I think Incredible Rollercoaster or The Incredible Rollercoaster would be a good one. It has a bit of a fun double meaning. It's a rollercoaster themed to The Incredibles, but they're also trying to tell you it's a rollercoaster that is incredible. I think putting "the ride" into the name of a ride is really lazy. I think Creature Crash Course would be a fun name for it, or maybe Magical Creature Crash Course if that's not too long. I think the name should include that part of the original title. I don't think they need Hagrid in the title. If the ride is in the Harry Potter section, people will assume it's a Harry Potter ride. I'm a little biased against colons in titles and I don't think Spider-Man: Webslingers has a good ring to it. I might go with Webslinging Spider-Man or maybe Spiderweb Slinging. Another instance where I don't think the name of the character/franchise needs to be in the title because people will know the ride is connected to that franchise. Ariel's Voyage actually sounds a little too basic to me. I think The Tale of the Little Mermaid would work since the riders are being told/experiencing the story of The Little Mermaid.

[@danielcurren2119]

@@rainyrouge5123 Thank you for the feedback! With spice mountain, I was attempting to emphasize the spices and Ingredients that is the source of the story for the ride, alluding to the expectations of the theme for the adventure.

[@everettgaspar3482]

"You shouldn't have to know anything about the theme park to enjoy your day" that right there is why Disney sucks nowadays

[@josephmilsark123]

Winnie the Pooh actually predates Disney in publication by two years. The silly ol’ bear first appeared in publication all the way back in 1928. The characters of AA Milne found a home with the Walt Disney Company when their rights were licensed for theatrical short films in 1961. The first theatrical short was released in 1966 and was followed by two more being released in 1968 and in 1974. Eventually those were all released together in one package film called The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh in 1977. So the ride at Disneyland and Walt Disney World actually gets its name from the film but the version at WDW is the last time we hear Paul Winchell voice Tigger before his passing in 2005.

[@brickman409]

Even for people that aren't doing their research on the park before visiting, if they dropped StarWars from the name, I think it would still be pretty easy for them to figure out that Rise of the Resistance is a StarWars ride considering the fact that it's literally inside of the StarWars Land and the ride is full of StarWars characters. It's very obvious even if you don't watch the movies. And then of course, the resistance itself is from StarWars, so there's already an indicator inside of the name as to what franchise its from.

[@Long-HairedLuigi]

[@user-bl8cd2xd4g]

My favorite is Roger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin, because it's a play on "cartoon" and "car"+"toon", it represents the ride well and it's catchy

[@TheStOne1]

I think that "Fantasmic" is a play on words of "Fantasia" and from "fantasma" which means ghost/phantom in Spanish. Then Fantasmic would mean "ghostly". It might reference how the villains have a big presence in the show.

[@CosplayCore]

“Tiana’s Bayou Band” could have worked, since the story of the ride is supposed to be about guests helping her search for a band to perform at her restaurant. Edit: How do you not know what the ride is going to offer yet though?? Are you avoiding watching all the news that’s kicking up about the attraction?

[@rukirgaming]

Don't get mw wrong, Universal also is running into this problem as well, especially with Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure(tm), but also the Velocicoaster is an amazing name for a Velociraptor coaster.

I can't agree with you about the Velocicoaster and the Incredicoaster. Those are concise, snappy names. Your critique is just that they sound dumb and childish, which I mean, c'mon they're theme park rides. The names are allowed to sound sort of juvenile.

imma still call tianas bayou adventure splash mountain :/ I have went on that ride so many times, its so weird for it to change after so so so long

[@condog209]

Mr. Toad's Wild Ride is the best ride with the best name

[@briansieve]

Adventure has some dangerous, multiple realm journey. Pirates, yes. But neither Tiana nor Webslingers is an adventure to me.

[@briansieve]

Now that we've seen the thin thin thin plot of Tiana we REALLY know it's no adventure. We're looking to hire musicians for a gig? And we hire every one we meet? That's not even a hunt or search

[@danielclark653]

One that has me on the fence is big thunder mountain railway. It’s a long name but you get exactly what it’s about. It’s an exciting bumpy coaster that’s styled to a Wild West train. Also one of my favorite rides.

[@barneypurple1423]

Haunted mansion holiday is a perfect name because it doesn’t entail that it’s either a Halloween or Christmas ride. The name implies that you can ride it on either holiday.

New Name Ideas: Snow White’s Enchanted Adventures Inside Out Mood Swings

[@JR1ckDoodles]

Mood Swings is a peak name

[@Valderami]

Star Tours also has "The Adventures Continue" as its subtitle

[@scrub4749]

I think when clever alliteration is not possible, I think the best names come from choosing just a one or two word name to represent the ride. Busch Gardens best displays this in my opinion with ride names such as Montu, Kumba, Tigris, etc.

[@sketchycat6223]

I’m not here for Velocicoaster slander, the name slaps. Also why do so many rides slap the name adventure on the end??

[@Dog_843]

Bro didnt even acknowledge 'Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind'

[@WalmartJedi]

"Broccoli Mountain"

8:07 Most likely the executives came up with the Name and anyone who complained or thought it was a stupid idea, Was threatened with termination. Executives will get rid of anybody who says something they don't like

[@yourstruly.hannah]

a lot of them sound chat gpt generated 😭

[@drquinn269]

You didn’t mention my favorite, which is “Mad Tea Party” even though the ride is rarely called by its actual name.

[@thesupermayoreo]

What's the point of adding the Star Wars name to RotR when it's already in a land dedicated to Star Wars?

[@happiestplace3754]

Completely agree with everything you said. The term "fast pass" has literally become part of the American slag lexicon just like the term E-ticket. Also, I absolutely love alliteration names as well, even my own 1st and last names are alliteration just like Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. I'm SO over the word "adventure" being used in everything. You completely forgot to mention that the entire Disney Paris Studios park is being renamed to Disney Adventure World which is the WORST name change ever.

[@airconditionedstudios1011]

I like how he's complaining about Tiana's Bayou Adventure, then universal's here making one of the best roller coasters out there then naming it Hagrid's Magical Creatures: Motorbike Adventure

[@BadDaddyB]

Nothing wrong with the name “Splash Mountain”. A ride with character’s based on a movie called “Song of the South” but named after a Tom Hanks mermaid movie that was popular at the same time the ride was built. Thanks Eisner, (his idea).

[@davidnevolo4402]

Exactly! It describes the ride system and show building not the IP. they could have just reopened it as splash mountain with no mention of princess and the frog. And then if they changed the ip again in 30 years they cpuld continue to keep the name. I love that the castle parks had a mountain range of E tickets
