I haven't even been on Tron yet but I know this is a silly comparison lol
This is one of the rare comparisons where Universal Studios Florida actually comes out on top.

I had like zero expectations for TRON and I was still disappointed. I literally saw the ride video, but thought it was more lame in person.
Revenge of the Mummy on the other hand is one of the more underrated attractions in Orlando and the best attraction at its respective park.

If everything were working as intended, I'd give the win the Mummy. But on our most recent ride throughs a few weeks ago, it was in really bad shape. Timing was off on a ton of (barely working) show elements and we got caught in nearly every possible instance of awkward, motionless silence between scenes imaginable as the attraction waited for the zones in front of us to clear.
So sadly, I can't. It's like if someone asked me to compare Everest to another attraction. I just can't give Everest the praise I'd want to after having seen the Yeti work the way he used to all those years ago. Sad as it may be, I can't judge attractions as they were in their prime. It's gotta be how they are operating today.

Except unlike Everest perpetually having its yeti in B-mode, Mummy doesn't operate like that all the time. Sounds like you caught it on a bad day.

Maybe. But I like to use the first Imhotep animatronic as an example of the sad state the attraction is in this days. In it's prime, this figure moved much more fluidly, had better looking "flesh" coverings, turned his head to face the crew member whose soul he was absorbing, raised his arm and then the team member would emit a smoke effect from it's mouth as Imhotep "absorbed" the soul.
Revenge of the Mummy just came back from a refurbishment and now, he can't even be bothered to lift his arm or turn his head. There is no fog effect from the mummified crew member and both figures hardly moved at all. Additionally, the "scarab wall" screen effect clicked off on us entirely. Maybe it was just a bad day and I realize these examples are not as "extreme" as the Yeti situation but after having just been "refurbished", I really don't think Mummy has excusable show right now. All Mummy did was make me feel sad after our most recent rides. -and for all it's flaws, at least I got exactly what I was expecting/wanting from TRON. I walked away with a smile and having a better time than I did on Mummy, simple as that.

Rode it Saturday twice and the door to the sarcophagus didn’t open. There was just a poor lighting effect of a face projected onto it.

Didn’t this just come back from a rehab? We were there in January and it was closed the whole time so we never got a chance to ride it.

Revenge of the Mummy is definitely the better ride. Tron is way too short and has very little eye candy.
