Universal Studios' Worst Ride - Fast & Furious: Supercharged

[@MikeFromTheParty]

I once read the average Guest Satisfaction score for Universal Studios Florida is higher on days when this ride is closed 💀 Great breakdown!

[@USA-qm2bk]

[@retroruckus]

Former Studio Tour Guide here! If you think this ride is a stinker, try sitting through it multiple times a day!! I will forever have that thing memorized. The one good part was all of the running jokes us guides had about it on our breaks - constant declarations of “HIT THE NITRUS!” The Florida version is stupid in its own right, but imo there’s nothing worse than it being the finale of the studio tour (especially when you know the parts of the studio that guests miss just because of it). Thanks for this history!

[@Jason_Voorhees.]

Man, I went on it 1 time and that was 1 time too many!!! I can not imagine having to do it daily multiple times a day 😂😂😂

[@LanceUppercut78]

A roller coaster was always the no brainer move for Fast & Furious at the parks. The studio tour experience lends itself much better to sci-fi, horror, adventure themed rides like King Kong, Jaws, etc. Not generic action films.

[@libertyko15]

Still would be better then the failure of supercharged.

I am still VERY sad that Disaster is gone. That was by far my favorite ride at the whole park. It was just so cool.

At least Jimmy Fallon has a strong AC. Supercharge is depressing honestly, cause the times I’ve gone on it, it’s either closed down because of repairs (I literally got to the ride vehicle and the ride closed down) or the effects are just sub par. Also it’s super short and you feel it. Great video man 💙

[@bobtom1495]

Same thing happened to me while I was waiting in line. But I decided to to wait it out for like 30 minutes with 10 other people while the rest left. In hindsight... no regrets...

[@edeninreallife]

I rode the one in Florida, and I remember the queue and pre-shows were cooler than the actual ride itself. It was just insanely boring, even compared to their other screen-heavy rides there's usually an element that makes it exciting. Great video about a boring ride though!

[@Elmerstudd007]

Great video! Though I do have one small correction. At 7:30 you mention the use of a Pepper's Ghost illusion which though is used very often in theme parks, this particular effect (and the pre-show for Disaster) is something different. These are called the Musion Eyeliner or the Musion Hologram which essentially takes the principle of the Pepper's Ghost and instead of relying on ambient light to reflect a physical object into view, this takes a projection and reflects it from below on to a 45° angle pane of metalized glass. But as mentioned before the principal is the same. Again I love the video, please do not take this as someone trying to criticize, keep up the awesome content.

[@GeorgesSpace]

Thanks for clarifying that, I didn't know the difference between the two!

[@itzliamnow]

bro hit the nerdington

[@mollyencrypted2488]

Fun story: when I first visited Universal Florida, I was a young teenager who *loved* Disaster, but being a young teenager, I was too old to volunteer for the child parts and too young to feel like I could volunteer for the adult parts. I endured this frustration every year until finally I was eighteen, so excited to finally volunteer to take part even if they didn't pick me...and that was the year they'd closed it to make way for this thing. I'm probably more bitter about this than is healthy.

[@CosmicEternityCD]

My home park's Universal Hollywood, and I had a year-round pass back in the mid-late 2000s, so I went on the studio tour plenty of times as a kid- And honestly? While I haven't been able to go back and experience what they replaced F&F Extreme Closeup with.. I think, maybe via nostalgia- I would've preferred they kept the dancing cars on mechanical arms to the tune of "Gasolina" over 8ft Tall Vin Diesel Manhandles a Helicopter, somehow.

[@squinty_shivers]

I was on this ride only a year ago and do not remember a single thing you explained, which proves that it's pretty bad. I remember it being laughably bad, as not a huge fast and furious fan. I loved watching their bad acting talking about how happy they are for their family and how the live actors acting alongside the videos were really funny

[@guyatfood2]

the fact that the pre shows are more entertaining than the actual ride.

[@Diinzie]

I clicked on this video accidentally and stayed because of how engaged you made me, great work on the video!

[@MrScaryPasta]

Ironically the same robotic arms used for the OG FF stunt show, were the same arms used for the current Harry Potter ride at the parks. Universal sure knows how to be creative with their scrap parts.

[@suttongriffin8154]

Not the same exact ones, but same model of Kuka robotic arms for sure! Universal has made had many times where they have teamed with Kuka for experiences enhanced by their technology.

[@AuthorCertifiedGoof]

I rode the Hollywood tour version for the first time last April and it was lame. Thankfully I knew not to expect much from it because I’d already heard a lot about how bad it was. But it sunk even lower than my low expectations. Also, I wasn’t too surprised by the fact that all the pre show elements on the tram are no longer done, meaning the Dodge Charger being addressed after Wisteria Lane

[@nicholasroyschool]

It's a sad situation because we are talking about Fast and Furious. In a franchise that utilizes ridiculous car stunts, huge explosions, a outlandish venues (like space), doing a party bus theme is so bland and dry that I wondered if they even wanted this to be a success. I recently went to the Florida ride and I LOVED the lobby area. I thought it was actually really cool to see replicas of the cars from the movies and some movie references in the shop. Everything went downhill after that.

[@freddykruger1118]

When I watched this at the park a few years ago to me it seemed like the actors weren't even in the same room when filming. It was like each actor was caught when time was available over a blue screen

[@thefly7331]

I’m convinced that fast and furious superchargers is propaganda to silence your phones.

[@GeorgesSpace]

True, because after all if we all silenced our phones we wouldn't have to experience Fast and Furious Supercharged💀

[@canorafera2510]

Disaster was my favorite ride when I visited the Florida location. My mother got to be green screened in as the “screamer”. I still think about the subway scene to this day. It’s what got me into my love of special effects, which is what I’m now studying. And now I’ll never get to see it again. 😞

[@jameshuot3706]

honestly the roller coaster could just be a copy and paste of the italian job coaster from the former paramount parks and it'd be awesome lmao

[@thebigmystery7841]

Im one of the ones who was devistated when disaster got taken out....one of the best parts was that it had interactions with the audience. I went while in college, and at the start they asked for people who could take certain roles in their new 'movie'. So someone who was an elderly grandma, a handsome guy, a screaming woman, ect. Im a very timid person and am not one to make loud noises in public but I saw it as my shot to be able to horror movie scream. So he asked for the screaming woman and hands shot up. He picked me out and asked for a demo to make sure. I screamed so hard and loud, legit like a girl being murdered in a horror movie. The whole place was dead quiet after and he just silently waggles his finger in a 'come here' motion, looking like I had shook the whole buidling. I got to do it on the ride too! The old lady they picked out was so sweet too. It made such a lasting memory for me just because of how interactive it could be and made me feel more apart of the experience and I wish we had more attractions like it.

[@DarMar106]

Only thing I liked about Supercharged in Florida was the “tunnel” scene. “Hey look a tunnel that new. Wow this is a very long tun…oh it’s projections” I felt like an idiot lol. Though I hope with Hollywood opening the Fast coaster I hope they redo the Studio Tour finale

[@ZebraGamez19]

Either that or they use that pace for theme park expansions like diagon alley or something like that

[@liamcollinson5695]

I never understood why fast and furious never got a roller coaster since its about going fast. I have heard rumours of one at Hollywood but the current ride would probably bore my granny

[@ryanmontanez_88]

Construction has already started on the coaster here in Hollywood.

[@MashaRistova]

Do you not watch the video before commenting? Lol he literally says this at the end

[@Luv2sing836]

I went on the Hollywood version of this ride and I kind of just sat there giggling at the absurdity the whole time. I had seen fast 9 where they go into space not too long before, and the premise of the ride seemed almost believable in comparison. It wasn’t a good ride but I was entertained, so mission accomplished I guess?

[@jimthar17]

Terrible ride. Rode it once and likely never again. The acting is ATROCIOUS. It's like all of the actors somehow forgot both their characters, and how to act in general. Plus, watching 50 year old men try to "party" at a club with 20 year old girls is pretty sad. It's very try hard. It's like they have to perpetually promote the party life instead of actually maturing the characters or making ANY other type of story. Also, Universal is notorious for cloning their ride concepts. Spider man and Transformers in Orlando are the exact same ride with different characters. Main good guy character has to save you from some type of war in the city and escorts you around running into a different villain every few minutes. Some hi jinks ensue, you escape amidst fire and water effects to a "Whew! that was close" from the main character at the end. EXACT same ride. Though I will say that they have improved lately with Hagrid and Velocicoaster but they REALLY need to get away from the screen based rides. And I say this as Villain con has just opened. So yeah, good luck. Also: They're milking the Minions franchise WAY too much.

[@GrayWoIf]

Never forgive them for removing disaster for this...

[@paystation164]

Here's the major problem with the whole reason it was built in the first place and somehow when designing it...they failed to realize the flaw. It's a WRAP around screen...to make the ride feel as if you were actually driving through a city... supposedly Los Angeles. 🤨 Well, the ONLY rider who is really getting the experience is the DRIVER. Even if you sit in the front, you really don't get that immersion because your view is obstructed with the tour guide and driver because they are slightly elevated. In my personal opinion, king Kong and fast and (the cashing in) are pretty much the same ride....kong being the preferred of course. *Fantasy time!* Simpsons should become Rick and -Morty land already. -Open up the filming lot for the guest to walk around and to create more space. -Knock down will and grace set. And build another attraction for the tram. -build the original king Kong inside the park as a walk through! - bring back practical movie effects studio -Another live stunt show (those are always great) -And schedule some celebrities to show up! Keep the Hollywood dreaming alive. (suckers) 🤭but I digress.

[@ishyk10]

Skull Island actually opened a year *before* Supercharged in Orlando, so to make it even worse Supercharged was seen as a significant step down from the exact same type of ride in the same resort

[@MysteryMii]

Well, what makes Supercharged in Orlando even worse in comparison to Skull Island was that they added new scenes and a new Kong animatronic to Skull Island, while all they did with Supercharged in Orlando was pretty much just add a queue.

[@Sketch105]

Disaster! Wasn’t the only thing that closed for this- the long running Beetlejuice’s Graveyard Revue which had just been revamped=ed a couple years prior was also closed (the fountain out front of the warehouse was the fountain for the Graveyard entrance)

[@regalxp8868]

When that rollercoaster opens up in Hollywood I really hope they take off the part from the tram

[@GabrielTheMagolorMain]

I miss the original King Kong, 😢 it scared me so much as a kid.

[@Jason_Voorhees.]

I laughed the whole time, i couldn't believe it was really the "ride". It was over and i was beyond underwhelmed and so was almost every other person on the ride... it made a mokery of the movies before they did it to themselves 😂

[@rollercoasterheaven2170]

Seeing someone run into a pole at the park would be more exciting than this ride

[@andrewholmes3116]

when i went on this in orlando a little over a year after it opened they didn't even bother with the preshow stuff 💀

[@erinmoment]

I went on the segment in Hollywood... the thought of it being its own standalone ride is absolutely horrifying

[@marcusjamesh1315]

This ride was so bad when I went years ago. I couldn’t even believe it was made…..💀

[@bollockbuster]

I used to work for Lowe’s Hotels back when they only had 3 Universal Studios resort properties, and I used to get free tickets to the parks. Partly because of that (and partly because of the Florida resident discount), I had been to Universal at least 10 times since 2008 and not a single one of those times my fiancé and I had any desire to go on that ride. I’m glad we made the right choice 😂

[@tommycolton4971]

I went on all of those screen rides... they made me sick af af I don't mind moving but omg the moving while watching TV makes me sick

[@brickman409]

I actually preferred the older Tokyo Drift show on the studio tour over the new one. At least that had real moving animatronics and wasn't just a big screen that you watched. It's weird driving by the entrance of Tokyo Drift because its all still there, it's just abandoned now.

[@90dayfiance69]

I think minion blast just took the new title of worst attraction ever at universal

[@nicholasroyschool]

I hate what they did there. They took the Jimmy Neutron Nicktoon's Blast ride, put another video on it, redecorated the room, and called it a day. Minions has a huge universe to work with and so many possibilities. To think they just ported from an old ride is a travesty to the franchise.

[@aegisofhonor]

what a waste of space, they should gut this ride and put in a serious indoor coaster or better yet, open a Secret Life of Pets clone from Hollywood.

[@pointlessfailure]

I went on this, it was blurry. In fact this and The Simpsons ride was so blurry and low res that it felt very cheap. There's a huge lead up to both with FF having live actors giving you part of the show on the way up to the ride.

[@ChrisEdwards7910]

The lines are normally short. So it’s got that going for it at least.

[@inversional_loop]

i got unlucky. in the final room for the line, they announced an hour long delay for the ride which lasted only 45 minutes. It only added to what was already a very lackluster ride. When the tram was coming back and the over enthusiatic ride operator shouted: "Alright guys if you enjoyed that ride MAKE SOME NOOOIIIIIIISSEEE!!!" One guy made the effort to put a half hearted "Woo!" out there. That was it though. Nobody on my tram enjoyed this depressing and lame turdburger of a ride.

[@tecpaocelotl]

The indoor one was so funny I laughed through the whole thing. I think it needs the idiocracy intro before you go in.

[@NerdFiction]

Every time I ride the tram I find myself missing the extremely close attraction. It wasn't great but it felt like an actual attempt at something, and the cars bowing was always cute. Conversely, every time I ride the tram now I find myself groaning when I remember I have to sit through the fast and the furious (and the king kong too tbh) 3D shows. They feel like cheap gimmicks and in the case of the Fast and Furious one it's so cringe and bad that the only redeeming factor it has is the jokes you can make with your friends about it after. It's kinda telling though that the execs would shut down the extremely close attraction just to make an extremely terrible one to replace it, but then again we are talking about people who are on the what, 11th unnecessary and barely enjoyable due to the insane skill and ability of the stunt crews, installment of this?

[@SAMMY_SAUSAGE]

I agree with the video as it hit on a lot of the key features although, theming overall was great, the ride experience not so much, but I am definitely interested in seeing what universal has in store for the fast and furious coaster

[@MrParkFan]

BeetleJuice and Earthquake at Universal Studios Florida was way better than the Fast and Furious anyway, it would’ve been better if they made it like Test Track at Epcot and Carsland’s Radiator Strings Racers at Disney’s California Adventure, I would love to see the return of BeetleJuice and Earthquake back to its original place and relocate the Fast and Furious and turn it into a better version

[@user-oy9zy4ds9m]

I went on this couple months go for the second time . The first time I went on it it was horribly boring as you described. However the second time I went on it it seemed much improved, still fairly boring but the effects seemed to be better than last time.

I standby as the only one who actually likes this ride. Most of that comes down to loving the IP, but i do like the segment on the tour and don't mind queueing for it in Florida (especially because the actual queue is nice). I'm well aware of it's painfully obvious flaws, but i still have fun with it anyways. Also that Helicopter is really small. Because its a drone. As Shaw falls off the bridge he yells "Call in the drones!!!" I too will eventually give this ride a proper review on my channel but for now its just my old video talking about why i don't hate it.

[@Crazycolors1248]

As someone who has never seen a single Fast and Furious movie, this part of the Studio Tour felt less like a grand finale and more like an absolute letdown. I was mad that they removed the Earthquake section.

I remember when it first opened in Orlando, and I went in without knowing that this was a simulator. like everyone was hyping it up saying it might be an indoor rollercoaster lol. then when I rode it I was like.. this is it??? like it felt so short and such an abrupt ending lol like ever since it opened I've never gone to ride it again.

[@Nightwing1933]

I went on the hollywood version of supercharge when it was still new ish, and I thought it was bad. I also remember hearing a rumor from back in the day that Universal had some early plans to bring Zelda and Pokemon to the Parks as part of the Nintendo deal (other rumors suggesting Lost Continent would become a Zelda area and Fievel's Playland becoming a Pokemon play area), but due to the poor reception to Supercharged and Jimmy Fallon Race through NY, those plans got scrapped and were now waiting to see how Super Nintendo World would do.

[@mass4905]

I'm 37, so when I grew up there were a lot more arcades than now a days. The point is, if anyone my age knows the games back then that had some sort of gun as the controller, like house of the dead, or terminator. And if you remember the graphics and style of how they transition into different areas, that's EXACTLY how this rides movie looked.

[@suttongriffin8154]

The videos that were made for this attraction including the pre show and the ride film are so uninspiring and cringy.

[@favethebatgirl7563]

I was so disappointed going on this ride for the first time in Orlando. It was for my grad bash and I made a bee line for supercharge since it was brand new then. I should have went to Rip Ride Rockit😮‍💨

[@TheDragonDAFan_]

I went on the Studio Tour version of the ride. It was fine. The acting was literally two-dimensional and the main chase sequence was kinda cool. Seeing Tyrese hitting on one of the passengers was hilarious given the antics he got into recently. I cannot see why Universal thought they could turn that into a full ride.

[@bobtom1495]

At least the ride is better than Disaster. Disaster was just boring, lame, and unnecessary. I just wish it was longer and more immersive than just being wrapped around screens...

[@movielibrary3608]

The Hollywood one is bad enough, if I lined up for that crap ride I'd be so angry haha. The worst part is the scale. When the partygoers are dancing beside the tram, they're about 75% the size they should be. It completely destroys the illusion and would be so easy to fix. Wild that it came out after King Kong, which is decent good imo.

When I visited the Florida version we had some guys do the pre show who obviously hated the attraction themselves, they joked about the attraction and all the stupid things that will happen in a few minutes and made fun comments while the Videos where playing. And tbh not taking anything in the attraction serious actually made it kind of stupid fun.

I went to this ride as part of the tour, that includes the king Kong ride as well, it's not the best or worst to me, it's just a bonus that I have experienced myself during the tour... My fav part of the tour was finally I have to see Hill Valley in person in Hollywood.

I enjoyed the video but one question I have is why don’t you like universal? I noticed a little bit in this video and you’re sight lines video that you don’t like universal, and I was just curious about why you didn’t like universal?

[@GeorgesSpace]

I don't hate Universal at all! The comment I made in the sightlines video was just a joke lol. And for what I said in this video about screen-based rides, I don't think they're all bad. Forbidden Journey is great, so are others like Spider-Man and Gringotts. Just the concept is getting a little tired, and it's good that Universal seem to be moving away from it a bit more.

[@Skadadelz]

@@GeorgesSpace Ok, I agree that universal was overdoing it with the screen rides at that time, I didn’t know the comment you made in the sight lines video was a joke, also it would cool if you did a video on sea world’s closed polar express ride

[@artemismoon7655]

This ride is Universals version of Stitch’s Great Escape. At least Disney finally gave in and closed that terrible attraction lol… The first (and last) time I went on this one, I sat with my fingers in my ears the whole it. It was so uncomfortably loud. I barely even remember the rest because of it, but that is probably a good thing.

[@Argonauts621]

All they had to do was make this A Harry Potter Night Bus Ride. There’s still time.

[@928studiosinc06]

Great analysis. New sub. I’d argue that it isn’t Universal’s worst, because of Jimmy Fallon.

[@eazye1083]

I am so glad someone made a video about this. I haven’t even watched this video yet lol. This ride is awful! How multiple people signed off on this still baffles me every time I go to the park. King Kong is essentially the same exact ride just done much better. Universal needs to stop this lazy trend of ride making. Transformers did not need to be made, you have Spider-Man. I’m pretty sure the movement might be exactly the same for both. King Kong and Fast are the same exact thing. No more rides with screens!

[@trippjohnson7393]

[@christopherrolen2913]

This is the absolute worst attraction at Universal Orlando.

[@dirge7459]

Universal afaik, decided around 2013's time to switch from making rides that would stick around for decades to come, to "seasonal" rides, where they would make rides based on current trends, use a load of screens to cut down on costs, and make said rides easily replaceable over time. I saw the writing on the wall when they disposed of Jaws, then BTTF. I absolutely did not like Universal replacing Earthquake with yet another celebrity based ride, because I never even liked TF&F movies to begin with. Basically every time they made a new ride, it was one that I either didn't like, or was geared towards an entirely different demographic, meaning I would be down a ride each time, which made buying a ticket for their parks less worth by each year. I'm not at that point where I've no real reason to go back to Uni studios or even Islands, because both are aged, and both trend chase, and that just doesn't entice me anymore, because I know Universal doesn't care anymore to be innovative (Same goes for Disney Parks and Disney in general).
