It’s funny that Chris Pratt is featured in the pre shows of both Disney’s and Universal’s big new roller coasters.

[@cja_824]

i wass thinking the same thing

[@CoasterStudios]

the king of theme park rides!

[@Zacharyfeinberg]

I was thinking the same thing lol

[@mackenziefritz8169]

And in Southern Calfiornia he’s featured on two rethemed attractions

[@XboxgeorgebeanRollercoasters]

And legoland

[@wombato5715]

Excited to see that after almost 40 years, EPCOT finally got a roller coaster. Looks like an epic addition to their line up

[@TheMrdominator1997]

I love how the pre show specifically says no recording but everyone just chooses to ignore it. That’s the Disney magic right there

[@gissneric]

Well, Disney has never been strict when it comes to filming. It's free advertisement. Maybe cause it's a rollercoaster that's why they included that spiel.

[@JD-uz1pp]

There's actually a reason why they say no recording at that specific section. Not meant to be an enforced rule, but if people had cameras with fancy lighting features, that would ruin the illusion of the teleportation since the walls quickly move up during the flash of pitch-black.

[@TheMrdominator1997]

@@JD-uz1pp I’d argue the magic is ruined having to enjoy it with people who just have cameras out for the whole experience

[@matm3548]

Rode it for cast member preview and that feeling of looking at a center point during the drop around the moon is one of the most unique feelings I have experienced on any coaster ever.

[@Racinek]

Looked just crazy cool, I gasped when I saw it! Nicely done!

[@gissneric]

Yes it's definitely a unique sensation but if almost made me queasy😂 cause of the spiraling and G forces

[@lightninlarry8936]

The one thing that blew me away with this ride is how smooth it is. Feels like floating.

[@seankearns8303]

This ride is absolutely one of the best roller coasters I've ever done! I first rode it during passholder previews because I go to Disney a lot (and when I say a lot, I mean a LOT) and of the three rides I got to do previews for, this one was my absolute favorite. Going in, all I knew about it is that it spun and it had a backwards launch, but the ride as a whole absolutely knocked my socks off, especially the theming. Buying an annual pass was one of the best things I've ever done because I live in south Florida and this whole resort (and all the other Orlando parks for that matter) are about 2 1/2 hours from my house. I'm going back in December and I can't wait to ride it again!

[@andrewc1199]

When Epcot was in development, there were plans for a Mount Fuji-themed roller coaster in the Japan Pavilion.

[@thatdisneyfan5759]

The guitar rift at the beginning of the ride is the tune to the Universe of Energy theme which guardians replaced.

[@jarrodjob]

Such a great reminder that all of this is about FUN. Especially in such a heavy season for us all.

[@ImDredd4ever]

Thanks for this content, The ride looks amazing.

[@_coasterhead_]

Congrats on 200,000 subscribers man!!!!! Absolutely amazed to see you pass this many subscribers! Absolutely incredible! 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

[@braxbro7602]

This looks like it will be the sleeper hit of 2022! Give me the airtime of Iron Gwazi, the speed of Pantheon, or the layout of Aireforce One, if you get a coaster with amazing theming like this one, you’ve earned a plethora of respect from me!

[@BarakaTMBABW]

Building was "Universe of Energy” and “Ellen’s Energy Adventure”. The building next to you was “Wonders of Life”.

[@mf1shman]

LOOKS AWESOME AHHH I LOVE MARVEL AND ROLLERCOASTERS SO MUCH

[@3godzilla3]

I JUST rode this today!!! SO much fun!! What are the odds I would have ridden this the day this video goes up. 😅 Never ridden anything like it. 🔥

[@ARMProducts1120]

Congrats on 200k subscribers!!

[@andyhansz967]

I’m glad you enjoyed this coaster as much as I did! I had a similar reaction each time I ride it! It’s a unique ride for sure!

[@bobbrewer5608]

Congrats on 200k subscribers.

[@donaldlamaster3789]

Congratulations on the 200K

[@ChristopherKapoun711]

Crazy first experience indeed I remember my first experience and ironically I did get "Conga"!

[@KoriDawn]

Actually it was the former Universe of Energy building, not Wonders of Life.

[@eddienhp]

Looks like EPCOT finally got there new roller coaster! Everyone was super excited in this video!

[@SunnylandProds]

Minor correction: this was Universe of Energy, Wonders of Life was to the right and is becoming the Play Pavilion.

[@ciscoduncan1490]

Thanks for the video and the info. Sounds like you really enjoyed it. Thanks again. 👍🏾

[@linkfiedproductions2246]

I’ll be at Disney Tommorow, can’t wait to ride that new ride

[@sgtmidgetpanda2121]

When I was there in late March I couldn’t even walk up to it😭. Also Chris pratt is involved in 2 roller coasters in Orlando 😂

[@ratbones620]

This ride looks super fun. I might be going to Epcot in the next year or 2 so I hope I get to ride it.

[@Kennywood_Fanatic]

Plus it isn't a mine train. My disney coaster rankings for the "big three" go cosmic rewind, expadition everest, rocking Rollercoaster

[@travilicious]

Actually, the Wonders of Life was next door. This was the Universe of Energy pavilion.

[@steeltoro4635]

Hi again, my family got to ride it two times cause it broke down right before the launch for like 2 mins

[@ernestoalejandrojuradoagui4824]

This coasters uses the new Vekoma track, found on coasters like Lech Coaster, Fønix ?

[@CoasterStudios]

I believe so

[@MakBot]

Disney loves using Vekoma

[@Lloyd00]

I think you guys got one of the better songs. Conga is my personal favorite, I think it flows with the ride the best

[@douglaspitcher3560]

Congratulations to 200K subs! As a celebration, I ate an ice cream named “Rocky Mountain”😃🎢🏔

[@Cirrus5005]

"We haven't seen *any* spoilers! .......... except this queuing room, the loading station and the beginning." 😂

[@maxhagenauer24]

8:16, it was actually intense in terms of positive Gs? That's a first for disney coasters.

[@looneygamer3825]

Everest pulls some nice forces imo

[@EPiche09]

“Everything is awesome!”

[@lansulin]

does that pre-show mean there will be celestials in gotg vol3

[@maxhagenauer24]

I'd assume you are going to do a review of this space mountain 2.0.

[@ThemeParkAvenue]

4:52 rabbit?

[@CoasterStudios]

its a joke

[@ThemeParkAvenue]

@@CoasterStudios I know, and I was quoting Rocket in Infinity War from when Thor called him a rabbit.

[@robertpolk9910]

Buc-ee the rabbit…beaver…it’s all good! Lol

[@njdotson]

I don't really understand this ride because it's pretty much space mountain, rock'n rollerocaster and the tron lightcycle thing which all would be at the same place. It's a cool ride but it's weird how it's like a lot of other ones

[@kyogresfunchannel]

Taylor: We will try to be at the opening Me: Good Luck with the Virtual Queue

[@CoasterStudios]

oh we know, lol

[@massachusettscoasters]

That’s why I’m not going to Disney World at this point at all cost unless they change the virtual queue to stand by queue like Star Wars: rise of the resistance did because virtual queues for what I heard can make your trip to Disney Very Stressful!!

[@kyogresfunchannel]

@@massachusettscoasters That’s why I stick with Universal, I just want to go to the parks whenever I want.

[@imcraft38]

8th! And also, I can't wait to get out there later this summer to try it.

[@Stweaner]

I would love to know how you rank it among the other rollercoasters in Disney World in terms of intensity. It's definitely hard to tell due to it being in the dark, especially with the unique vehicles

[@BlueSky-i2u8i]

I’d say it depends on the row you’re in. Front it doesn’t feel super intense but back row it feels like one of the more intense disney coasters. Probably not full on rock n roller coaster intense, but somewhere from space mountain to Everest? I think I’ll go with Everest. It’s a very long ride but it is also butter smooth. For people who have a hard time handling coasters it might be a challenge, I know at least one person that passed out on it, a couple more that said one ride is for me! But most people that love coasters it won’t find it all that intense unless maybe back row. It’s a super fun ride!

[@owencarey606]

Real Disney fans know that Epcot always had a rollercoaster because spaceship earth is a really slow rollercoaster

[@dmitriytechmix1665]

Nice!

[@cjspyker]

Disney finally has a hagrid's competitor

[@trickshotcentral9295]

I got one ride on it and I was in the 9th row and I got september

[@ThemeParkAvenue]

I haven’t ridden this, so this is just me being cynical, but I can’t believe this ride cost more than Expedition Everest and Hagrid’s combined. Im sure it is a solid ride, but it seems to be mostly just a dark room with technology Gringotts perfected 8 years ago.

[@mackenziefritz8169]

Agreed, I feel like maybe it’s 100 million at the most. No way it’s more expensive than Hagrids with that insane ride system plus all the theming and animatronics

[@cameronbyrd7671]

There are many factors that could explain the high cost. Gutting of Universe of Energy, reusing and re-routing for the new queue, building that huge show building, installation of track, designing and building the trains (the most costly part of roller coasters), paying the actors/actresses, getting music licenses, and yes, the projection dome-like screens. Sure, this may not be as thematic as Hagrids with animatronics or even as technological because there's no drop or switch track, but with the cars spinning (controlled) and having to sync with the movie on the screen (which James Gunn himself helped produced), I can see why the attraction was a hefty price tag.

[@ThemeParkAvenue]

@@cameronbyrd7671 I can definitely understand a high price tag, but I am just surprised by how astronomical it was.

[@MattMcIrvin]

The difference from the Gringotts tech is that the cars can rotate under ride control throughout the entire ride because the mechanism is internally battery-powered rather than bus-bar-powered. I suspect that made it more expensive. Also, since basically the whole thing is taken at speed, the show building is *vast*; the box in back alone looks to be the size of two copies of the Gringotts structure stacked on top of one another, and that's not even including the old Universe of Energy building and the launch tunnel.

[@AMagicProduction]

@@cameronbyrd7671 eh, they didn’t demolish Universe of Energy… they just gutted it, and yes while the show building is huge, that’s not where the majority of the cost went. The actual coaster is rumored to have only cost $60-80 million. Disney and WDI has outrageous, bloated costs.

[@haewonized]

OMG IT OPENED?!

[@AccusedJ]

The backside of the ship may be cool, but is it as cool as THE BACKSIDE OF WATER!?

[@AMagicProduction]

this ride is cool… the Backside of Water is iconic

[@Red_Ryan_Red]

Every other opinion of this attraction I've heard has been "sup-par", or "more of the the same". I'll have to experience it for myself in... a couple years maybe lol.

[@josephferrara6309]

Really? I haven’t heard one review that describes it as that.

[@kevingreen5793]

I am Groot! So how did you like this ride compared to Mission Breakout and why? I hope someday WDW will get a Marvel themed area like CA has!

[@rapunzel1701]

I skipped this video because I didn't want spoilers, now YT shows it to me the week after I finally ride. They know too much!

[@P.L.T.M.Banana]

Nice video

[@Cwilson21005]

question: this or hagrids

[@johanll6321]

Are they going to theme the outside of the building?

[@tooldtovlogwelch7221]

How does compare to Rise of the Restiance?

[@jakalupeters4248]

Awesome ride! However, what I think Disney should do for these more recent IP drops in EPCOT is instead of dedicating individual pavilions or areas to IP, they should integrate them into each existing pavilion. Each IP drop would act as an example of Disney products or pop culture and its interpretation of that area of science and technology for that pavilion and the role it has played in advancing culture’s awareness of that field. For example. EPCOT currently has a space pavilion (mission space) which acts as a truly EPCOT example of displaying and allowing others to experience the technologies and emerging ideas of space travel. In the case of Guardians of the Galaxy, this could act as an IP example for the space pavilion, displaying pop culture’s interpretation of space technology in the movie and educating the viewer about how the ideas brought about in IP could help to inspire future technologies and generations. A short preshow film could describe this and tie the IP in and then the ride could just be a Guardians of the Galaxy ride with no need for further tie-ins to EPCOT. This model would allow Disney to happily integrate IP for every Future World Pavilion while also retaining EPCOT’s ideas of technology, edutainment, the future, and inspiration for all. World of Motion could become home to test track and IP such as Star Wars and all the examples of possible new transportation technologies that could emerge in future decades from those movies. As mentioned previously, the Space Pavilion could be home to mission space and the guardians of the galaxy. They could reconstruct the queue building behind the current space pavilion and redivert the launch tunnel to the roller coaster. The Universe of Energy could be reinstated and then become home to an IP example such as Fantasia where you discuss examples of energy seen in scenes such as bald mountain. The Living Seas could reinstate the educational dark ride and then tie in IP such as 20,000 leagues or Nemo or the little mermaid and discuss the diversity and fragility of the world’s oceans. The land could be home to living with the land, soarin’, and IP like Pocahontas or Moana. The Imagination pavilion could be home to journey into imagination and IP like alice and wonderland where you could discuss the impact of Disney animation and the whimsical creativity and imagination found in the movie on the liberal arts. Even the health pavilion could be re-instated and integrate IP like inside out where you discuss the impact of mental health and balancing emotions. Pleace feel free to let me know what you think about this idea. I really think it would benefit the Disney visitor and Disney in regards to EPCOT and IP.

[@camer888]

7:27 Don’t even lie those are Buc-ee’s socks

[@CoasterStudios]

I know. It was a joke

[@Hii250]

How would you compare this ride to Hagrid's and Space fantasy at USJ?

[@CoasterStudios]

I wouldn't really compare it to Hagrids aside from the fact that they're both family coasters. Space Fantasy is great, but its not a story driven experience.The spinning is very directional on Guardians, where its not controlled on Space Fantasy.

[@outdoodled800]

Hey. He only has a problem with Sarah asking Gamora out, not Chris Pratt. I totally understand.

[@dylanfaraci8071]

So Terry Crews is in the MCU?!?! 😂😂

[@thequackenscoasterchannel2927]

Congratulations on 200k subscribers!!! Quick question: is this the best Vekoma in the US?

[@CoasterStudios]

I say so, yes!

[@8675Luke]

We’re y’all dissapointed that there were no animatronics?

[@CoasterStudios]

yes

[@TheAmtrakSpartan]

there’s inversions

[@adennewman1053]

I watched this in slow mo because I was there that day and hoped I’d see myself. I did not

[@deepsouthmtb2531]

Chris Pratt is in the two best attractions in Orlando 💀

[@EpicAdventureCouple]

I found it to be a blurry, spinning mess. Motion sickness to the extreme. Your brave people I’ll never go again 🤷‍♂️😥

[@ehsbe1056]

Universal dropped hagrid, Disney dropped GOTG, when will Disney drop their answer to velocicoaster?

[@ratbones620]

I’m guessing it’s probably gonna be Tron. They’ve been going all out on construction recently so it’s probably gonna be opening soon.

[@williambrown8249]

This used to be universe of energy, not wonders of life. Y'all are hella Disney GP

[@al0742]

6:27 Oh, so now we know why Marvel made the Eternals movie.

[@heyitsjulius6233]

Hagrids is cool but this is better, more intense and bottom line more fun. New fav ride at Disney. They crushed it. As far as negatives agree it was hard to follow the story towards the second half of ride and not 100% confident in the song choices - doubtful Peter Quill would have Conga? Reverse launch could have been a little more powerful too. Amazing ride tho

[@authenticNL2]

Hear me out, Extreme Mack Spinning coaster in the Epcot ball.

[@somecartoonweeb3947]

The actual theming, ignoring the coaster, actually looks really mediocre exempting the moon and earth scenes tbh.

[@Brandon-qd2lb]

You have passes to disney yet you bash the hell out of it??

[@CoasterStudios]

Since when do I bash them? We did a couple videos talking about their bad rides, but we’ve done plenty of videos talking about their great rides!
