Even though it's much older, the Spiderman ride is much better than the Transformers clone, which doesn't even have a story. That ride is just things happening while your vehicle excitedly points at other transformers and shouts their names.

@thatoneguy64325 ай бұрын
I beg to differ. Spiderman has a better story, but what makes transformers so good is how well it's themed. It's like being directly in a Michael Bay film, which benefits it so much. The Spiderman does have that classic feeling, but that's just it. It's very.. basic. There's no risks other than the fire effects, which are cool mind you. If they want Spiderman to be better, they need to do 3 things. 1. UPDATE THE CGI (Keep it mostly the same) 2. Replace Scream with Venom (Much more well known villain.) 3. Add MORE!! It's too plain, so maybe risk it a little with some unique animatronics and special effects!

I’m 6”3, around 220lbs and I got on. There is usually specially adapted seats for big guys on certain rows. This includes Rip ride rocket, the hulk etc. Disney has 2 rides that are almost impossible if you have muscular legs. Flight of passage and Tron. But Universal is very plus size friendly.

Especially any especially romantic suggestions! From a fellow frugal Brit, thanks for your excellent guides, I know they're going to help me a tonne when planning our trip!
@jonnymillard30856 ай бұрын
Oh you'll have a great time. My advice having just come back would be that as adults it's worth paying extra for queue jumping, that way as adults you get to do rides at your leisure when you want. But then you get to take in more of the atmosphere and the theming, something I took very little notice of as a child.

Thank you! ‘Will call’ is where you use the purchase reference number to pick them up at the gate of the park. You can also do this from the hotel if you’re staying on site. From experience, the likes of ‘Floridatix’ and ‘Attraction Tickets’ give you tickets that don’t require this, I.e. you get sent the full tickets which can take you straight in to the park.

Kong (and it's sister ride Fast and Furious) are both duds... I was very disappointed in the lack of maintenance on River Adventure with a big "camouflaged" section to hide animatronics that aren't working for example. Cat in the Hat was much better than we expected. Hagrids - there's a section of the queue in a cave that I found vary claustrophobic.

Honestly, Mythos is.. mid. The whole area is unique, but it feels more like an inbetween to where your trying to go (Harry Potter/Jurassic Park) I think what would make that area INSANELY GOOD is if they made that whole area Skull Island and took out the old Skull Island and replaced that area with more Jurassic Park stuff. Think about this: Kong is the same way, people pass it to go to Velocicoaster or Harry Potter. Why? Because it's an inbetween, and theres nothing to do! what would benefit it is if they decided to go all out with the theme, and make a New Kong ride, one unique to Orlando like the Velocicoaster is. Maybe keep it so Kong is fighting the Vastatosaurus, but add some animatronics, some more special effects, some more uniqueness, and you've got yourself a King Kong ride everyone wants to ride. And outside of it, now the ride isnt the only thing you can do! There's shops! Meet & Greets, and more to explore Skull Island!
