DHS Disney Confirms Muppets Take Over Rock 'n' Roller Coaster at Hollywood Studios

[Cmdr_Crimson]

Yeah! when the Rock and Roller coaster will close. And also The Sponsor of Rock and Roller coaster?

It hasn't had a sponsor since 2017 after the 10 year contract with Hanes ended ..

I can't find it?

Spoiler alert: the stretch limo is out of fashion.

Well, I'm sure The Electric Mayhem will give them custom paint jobs...

Meanwhile at DCA the Muppets are doing the preshow safety segment before the show starts.

I hope they gut the queue and create a homage to the Muppets.

They should salvage some things from Muppetvision and Stage 1 store.

I hate the outdoor queue for this ride. Any muppet themed props would be an improvement.

This is actually pretty tolerable new Muppets content. Even Vogel doesn't sound too bad in this one.

 

[MisterPenguin]

about yeah.

2 minutes long from station release to station return. I always find it amusing when 7DMT is quoted at 3 minutes long. Even the last 20 seconds of that 2 minutes is slowly going past the cottage.

Wasn't station release at 0:07 and station return at 3:20? And isn't that more than 3 minutes?

I'm still confused about how you gauge that 7DMT is just 2:00 minutes since your own standard is station-to-station. And doesn't the video show it's more than 3 minutes? At what point are you stopping the stop-watch?

:10 to 2:15.

I guess you are counting waiting for the train in front to unload as part of the attraction?

Ah.

Yes, I am counting that. A story-coaster stops to tell stories.

Would you have counted the time of Energy Adventure as only being when the audience vehicles were in motion? Or stop the stop watch every time TGMR stopped for a scene?

I don’t think that’s a fair comparison. You aren’t being told the story for that whole minute. Had there only been 1 train on the track. That entire scene would take 10 seconds at most.

Exactly. That show scene is there next to brake holding. It is like extending RnR time because you were parked at launch for longer due to delay ahead.

The designed ride time on Test Track is not longer because people are taking longer to check your seatbelts at the checkpoint.

Do we think they'll announce the closure for RnRc in advance or will it just suddenly close. It'd be nice to know when making summer plans how short our day at HS will be lol

I don't think it is closing for awhile.

I also would not put it past to be one of the things cut back.

I can picture that.
