I think the longest queue is from the back of the parking lot to the tram

Do we also know if these are actually solar panels that are just covered up or are solar panels going to be mounted onto whatever they are putting on the building now?
Personally, I think it'll be a ride through a big theater, with a huge screen upon which will be showing...

When this thing finally opens, I'll be searching high and low for the old UoE logo or any references in the queue/ride. They sure as hell better put the logo in the attraction somewhere.....

I would be super surprised if they didn’t put a reference in (as they mostly always do).

I hope they don't tone down on the thrill on this one even though it has no inversions. Tron has minimal thrill. I hope this packs a punch. We have the raptor coaster at Universal which looks wild.

I’m kinda hoping it is thrilling but not too thrilling. I tend to avoid rides that are super intense (especially roller coasters). Would be a shame to miss this one. I am getting better though at trying rides.

I know Rat is estimated to be completed in October. Do we have an estimation when this will be done in 2021? I know with COVID nothing is set but, it is still fun to get a general idea.

5th gate? Just build a new resort Bob.
Do you want one from an insider or a guess from a rando? I can definitely give you the latter.

and Hagrids which packs more punch than any coaster at WDW and its considered a family attraction. Rise is great but I wanted more thrill. Please have some thrill... please!!!

It’s always fun to speculate! So let’s hear it and to complicate things let’s add a rule.
It has to be a month or range of months.
I’ll start with August-October.

I am more optimistic. I will say April-June.
It'll be family friendly.
Don't look for Disney to put in any "thrill ride" for the foreseeable future.

It has a reverse launch that seems pretty “thrilling“ to me. It’s not like it’s not a steep launch either.
A launch into a steep incline slows you down by the time you get to the top.
In order for the cars to turn to have you look at things, you can't be going too fast.
"Thrill" is a subjective term. But I can't see this being anything more than a touch more thrilling than Slinky Dog or BTMR.

Which is honestly all Disney should be building anyways.
They will never be able to build enough huge thrill rides to satisfy the people who want them. If they built one, the people that really want them would just ask for more. A couple wouldn't be enough and they're never going to catch up to somewhere like Cedar Fair (or even most of the regional Six Flags) in quantity. Beyond that, it wouldn't really make any sense for them to build a lot of rides that kids can't ride.
I just don't see how it could make financial sense for Disney to build one or two rides of that type when it wouldn't be enough to attract people who aren't currently going to Disney and wouldn't be a huge boost to capacity (any ride would help some, of course) since it would only be rideable for a certain percentage of guests. There's no significant benefit to Disney in either sales or operations.
