I really give Rohde a ton of credit. Imagine all the research trips to Detroit and Cleveland that were required to get this authentically gritty failed electronics shop-turned science lab look just right. My greatest hope is for repurposed checkout lines to function as queue rails and that old 72” 2009 plasma TVs will provide the ride visuals. Thankfully he already figured out in Dino-Rama how to make repurposed asphalt parking lots that won’t melt in the California sun.
DL's audition page is now looking for skateboarders for streetmosphere.

Triggering posts like this are banned. I’ll be reporting this to the Mom. Good riddance and enjoy MiceChat.

I was just as shocked to discover this as anyone, but when on the Bonvoy website recently I learned that there is actually a Ritz-Carlton in downtown Cleveland. And it wasn't closed in 1982, it is still in functioning operation today!
So it's entirely plausible that there was a boozy and spa-infused research trip into gritty Rust Belt environs for Mr. Rohde and top WDI executives as they camped out in the Cleveland Ritz. I wonder what little charm he bought in Cleveland to add to his distended ear jewelry to remind him of this ultra edgy project? A tiny bronzed bottle of generic Opioids? Maybe a little sterling silver heroin needle?

Rohde isn't in charge of Marvel projects anymore but Scot Drake is. He's the one to blame.

We were obviously joking...I don’t honestly think this will look that bad. Guardians is the eyesore.

Obviously I have horrid theme park taste because I think this looks pretty cool. If the Avengers e-ticket is as good as it sounds then this land will be insanely popular.

SW:GE has proven that this isn’t necessarily true.

It's not my thing, but I'm open to it. The Spider-Man ride seems to be a huge misfire, but I'm trying to remain a little optimistic. I just don't know why they would choose to design a Spider-Man ride that takes you through an automotive factory. Spider-Man doesn't even drive.

I still don’t understand what kind of ride system the Avengers ride will be using or maybe I forgot because it was confusing. Can you remind me?

Part simulator and part free flying jet pack over imax screen. Remember DCA's live Aladdin show and the flying carpet over everyone's head. Imagine that as a jetpack you are strapped to in front of a screen.

might as well just make it a Rocketeer Ride
A sort of new one.
I believe it will share a lot of similarities to Flight of Passage, but it will make for a more comprehensive experience by virtue of how it starts out. It will feel sort of like two different ride experiences.
The first part has Guests load into a Quinjet. Sit in rows of four. The front shield opens and the vehicle maneuvers to Wakanda ala Star Tours. All in front of a shared Giant Imax screen. Think Simpsons at Universal.
At some point the 'Shell' that is the Quinjet pulls off as you are 'ejected into the action'. The chairs would remain supported from below/behind or above/behind, but would give you the impression that they are free floating. The two rows would splay out so that you are really now just sitting in a row of 8 in a pretty classic Flight of Passage like experience. But because of the way the headrests are designed you'd have even more visual exclusion of the periphery that you are sort of 'alone'. Presumably another Quinjet would sort of wind up beside you and you'd really be in multiple rows of guests beside, above and below you, that you'd be pretty unaware of. Basically Soaring/Flight of Passage.
I guess we could call it Soaring 3.0. The difference maker being them finally perfecting and avoiding the whole dangling feeling phenomenon (Soaring) and Flight of Passage/Soaring Phenomenon (Overt ride architecture when you initially load the attraction).
