Expedition Everest effects status watch

[ctxak98]

I dunno about that.




Or if we're sticking to heavily-themed Disney backwards coasters...

From what I heard grizzly gulch is just ok. And I haven't been on those other rides so....

 

[Voice of Disney sanity]

How's this for a solution to the pinned debate....turn this thread into a effect status watch for all Disney attractions?

 

[Clever Name]

I do agree that it could use some updates and additions (besides a working yeti). For instance, it can't be that hard to cover up being able to see into the mountain during the backwards section. They could even add some lighting effects in there or something.

I think some more strobe lights would be perfect.

I think all they saw was just an agitated Lou Mongello broadcasting from Everest.

I don't get why anybody cares so much about this. The ride is awesome!!!!

If you don't get it, you won't get it.

Don't sweat the small stuff. Have a magical day.

I would hardly call the largest AA built by Disney being nothing more than a statue for nearly 7 years "small stuff".

It's the "smalls" that add up to big stuff.

The finale of the parks signature E ticket not working isn't exactly small.

What is the current state on the vegetation today? Has it grown back in? And should I expect steam this summer?

True it is big. But not something for me to be upset about. Just enjoy the thrill of the ride.

You go by it so fast that's it's no big deal. Enjoy the view.

If "thrill" was all I wanted, I would go to Six Flags.

Still big sections of blank land, visible backstage areas, etc. See my last post (though the video doesn't do it justice). I know its just vegetation, but with a lack of actual sets and props along the ride, the landscaping is important. It shouldn't look like someone's backyard.

I've asked a CM about the steam and they mentioned it is often intentionally turned off because it makes the station too hot.

Not as thrilling and magical as disney. Maybe you could "wish upon a star". Your day has been disneyfied.

Hmmm....

B...but, hang on, just a minute there, over at Six Flags, their twenty feet tall animatronic beasts DO function. Yep.

 

[Wikkler]

It's sad that a Six Flags or Cedar Fair park can operate dozens of multiple storey-tall animatronics but Disney can't...

 

[Tom Morrow]

Those are pretty simple animatronics, though...

 

[Wikkler]

Yeah, and the Yeti was one of the most complicated there was in 2006...
