A Spirited Perfect Ten

So is 900-1000 HRC accurate?

I have to believe it is.
I've always heard the operational capacity was about 900/hr. Theoretical capacity was around 1000.

Really don't see how they could possibly get it up much higher.

The new scene, as you indicated, will only occupy the former load/unload area. It would only allow for maybe 3 more boats in the flume.

That won't have an impact.

The only things that could possibly increase the capacity would be to either increase the speed of the flume or to dramatically reduce the load/unload times.

Neither are likely.

Capacity would also be determined by the switch from forward to backward parts of the flume. Quick loading can give higher capacity but the timing of the switches may not allow for bumper to bumper boats like in IASW

True.

I remember this scene. It is the wide shot where you see the steam train on the far left side of the screen and the blown up tressel on the far right side of the screen.

So do we have any idea what it could be, Nintendo already?

E3 is soon too.............. omg........

2 hours? I'd say that's generous.

"Newness" factor + Frozen factor + capacity factor = one heck of a cluster you know what

A cluster of arrested development adults and booger eating 5 year olds?

And don't forget, USH is hosting that revived Nintendo World Championships they'll be doing for E3 this year.

I get the feeling Nintendo's Direct is gonna be glorious.

Probably the NBCSports Grill&Brew.

CityWalk replacing NASCAR right?

Maybe they could stop treating Frozen like the second coming?

Let's be fair, folks were attacking them for NOT exploiting Frozen enough, or not being psychic and predicting it's runaway success - it's just that folks aren't happy with how they are doing it now, which is valid - but let's not pretend that even people here were pressing for something.

That's a thing? Seriously? Oy vey...

Yes, in typical Universal fashion. Tons of screens, themed food, and an actual microbrewery.

Same feeling.

Probably the NBCSports Grill&Brew.

Well, that was fun while it lasted......

And hopefully better than NASCAR LoL. But, as for screens, more than Buffalo Wild Wings? They have a ton of TV screens.

Apparently it is now. I made the same joke on twinker last night.

Yes and now we're attacking them for doing it on the cheap and unable to serve the demand that comes on a daily basis....

There truly is no hope.
