While they put the Christmas mix in, they need to remove “Everybody Wants to Rule the World”

It’s too slow for that attraction. You need a fast tempo song.
Hard disagree. Before riding it, I was concerned, but after having done so multiple times, it became one of my favorites.

They used parts of the song that feels exciting on-ride. All of the songs are fantastic.

Yeah, but see, it’s The Zach’s favorite of the songs.

I think all the songs are good at best. There is nothing in there that really matches the energy perfectly.

Yeah ya don’t shoot it…you sip it.


Animals…

Anyway…this holiday thing for guardians is pretty cool. Might have to make a trip👍🏻

I actually find myself missing that ride 🎢
I had a pretty stupid grin on my face after riding it. In a vacuum, it is a fun attraction. If you remember where they put it and how much they spent on it however, you can start to go insane.

I'd have to disagree; it's a B among a bunch of B- to C+ options. I wonder if and what options got left on the table because of lyrics that would not make the cut, artists that Disney would not want, or they could not get the rights to. Crazy that you have no Don't Bring Me Down by ELO, Renegade by Styx, Long Long Way from Home by Foreigner, Life in the Fast Lane by The Eagles, or Smokin' by Boston. All of them are top-level dad rock, follow the rule of not being in the movies, and would fit the ride much better.

I agree about the songs - Conga seems to come closest. The pop song gimmick seems to work better in Mission Breakout, but so do a lot of things.

On that note - having finally done it in person, the preshows are really awful. One of the worst Disney has ever done and much more reminiscent of Universal back in the 90s. I really don’t blame people for wanting to skip it.

I think i was just trying to distinguish the bourbon and Coke and the straight bourbon. You are correct. There was no “shooting” of the bourbon.

Regardless of the ingestion method or speed thereof, the liquor (although more likely the “more front” seat placement) made the ride more enjoyable.

No doubt

Written and directed by the people who produced The Elder Scrolls series.

I’d argue that ride they built doesn’t belong in the other three parks either, not necessarily because it fits in Epcot, but because they tried to make it fit in Epcot.
I mean, Studios literally already has a “Remote outpost for the people from the movie” attraction as it is, so I think that’s all the more reason it would fit fine there.

Is it a good experience? Yes, if you don’t get sick.

Is it revolutionary? No.

Is it in the right park? No.

Is it worth the budget? IMHO no.
I doubt I'll ever ride it again. Preshows are horrid, line will likely always be long, no other big draw to Epcot besides Frozen Rat is just not worth the walk to it. .and it made me queezy for an hour or so. And it's just not that great. I wouldn't care if it played Master of Puppets, the music just doesn't make me not just want the ride to end.

Do you know if the rotation is a program that starts at the end of each brake, or is it finely controlled along the track, which I doubt.
