we have a rendering from NYT! Look very futuristic! DCA has a version of Tomorrowland.

Sorry, what Tomorrowland? No Tomorrowland has this style building. The rounded corner roof tops are very much in keeping with Hollywood Backlot.

Ok, when I think of more show scenes I think of a longer track.

Is there an example where a longer track with more show scenes equates to lower capacity? I'm seriously asking because I want to know.

Length of track has nothing to do with the number of riders per hour. That is dependent upon vehicle capacity and dispatch times only. If you had 2 rides that seated 12 people per vehicle and dispatched 5 vehicles per minute, you would have 3600 riders per hour. If one of those rides had a track that that 1,000 feet and the other had a track which was 500 feet, they would still only be dispatching 3600 people per hour. Track length is important when factoring how many bodies this attraction will soak up out of the rest of the park, but it has no impact on how many riders can get onto the attraction per hour.

I think this will most certainly be the first roller coaster with programmed omnimover style movements. Argue all you want, Gringotts is basically a dark ride with a motion base RV. These are roller coaster cars in a more recognizable form. I find that exciting, as I expect this to be far more coaster then sit and stop.

Gringotts is a roller coaster with show scenes and programmed omnimover style movements on the cars. Guardians will likely have more coaster elements, but that doesn't mean that Gringotts' coaster elements now don't exist.

Great catch! Looks like they pulled it already from the NYT article. I wonder why they even have it? There might be a Disney Parks Blog in the near future and they gave out the art in advance of running the story? Just a guess though.

Does anyone else see that building in the back right? Over behind the trees? I don't think that's an existing building?

Except that isn't a coaster, its a dark ride with some coaster elements to it.

HAHAHA. Dude, its a coaster. Dark ride just means an enclosed attraction with show scenes and some degree of themeing. IJA is a darkride, RSR is a darkride, Haunted Mansion is a darkride, Pirates is a darkride, Revenge of the Mummy is a darkride. Just because it is a darkride doesn't mean it isn't also another classification of attraction (flat ride, omnimover, flume ride, roller coaster, water coaster, etc). Gringotts is clearly a roller coaster as the ride vehicle has rollers which guide the coaster carriages along a track which relies on gravity to propel the vehicle. Yes, it features a launch, as do many roller coasters.

Yes, which if you follow along with my recent posts I clarify where my thought process is coming from.

Its just my opinion, I just never considered it a roller coaster. But its not worth fighting about. Call it a roller coaster, doesn't matter to me.

Opinions can be wrong. The chassis and how it moves along the track is indicative of a roller roaster. Saying its not earlier and the Guardians is the first to use an omnimover style car on a coaster is just false.

Ok, I'm wrong in my opinion. Thank you for letting me know. Its still my opinion. Hope we can move on from this now. :cool:

The whole point of the silly original post was to show a potential ride system that could be coming to DCA. Not to dissect every word of the post. Geez can't a guy actually be excited for something coming to a Disney park. At this point I don't care if its the first in the world, last or whatever, it still a first for a Disney park.

I get what they're going for, but man, the more I look at it, the more lackluster that concept art is.
For me, the most outstanding Marvel aesthetics in their films have always been things not of earth. Xandar, Titan, Aasgard. I'll even toss Wakanda into that (yes, I know its meant to be in Africa...don't @ me). Visually appealing and otherworldy feeling.

Not this.
