I apologize if this has been asked already but am curious as to what kind of ride system the falcon ride will have. Will is be screen based? Will is be static or on a track of sorts?

Thanks!

It will be a screen based simulator. The cockpits, which are the ride vehicles, will be on a slow moving turntable with the screen outside the cockpit.

I had no idea assimilation like that was possible yet!!!

There will be a wall dividing muppet courtyard from the path between ST and SWL. The path with roughly be aligned with SoA, not where it currently is today. You'll see the MV area but won't go through it.

Speaking of muppets.. Did you guys know they are making a new series related to Jim Henson's THE DARK CRYSTAL?

I wonder if Donald Trump came up with that idea.

We are gonna build a wall between the Hall of Presidents and the Haunted Mansion! And the 999 ghosts are gonna pay for it!

I think I read somewhere that the turntable was boarding and on boarding and then it would on a track of sorts.
Is that true?

This ride system seams to have the most unknown about it still, at least to me...

No, you are on the turntable the whole time.

 

[MisterPenguin]

Oh, is that a bad or good thing?
Will this be an E ticket?

Think of Star Tours and how you see each vessel lined up in a long corridor.

Now imagine all those ships on a slowly turning round table behind a wall such that when the door opens, you only see the entrance to one of the vehicles. You get in, the door closes, and as you're doing your simulator thing, the turntable rotates so that the next 'vehicle' is behind the entrance door. You get off the ride before you come back around to the entrance door, so, you never see any other group board or exit.

Actually its more Star tours meets Carousel of Progress but the screen is outside the ride vehicle and the sim will only seat 6 if I recall.

So essentially the Carousel of Progress if you could shoot Grandma and Rover.

Actually it's going to be like Tower of Terror meets Splash Mountain, but there will be no water, no drop tower, no animatronics but instead a turntable and a screen.

Sound more like Peter Pan mixed with FoP and the DisneyLAND RR to me.

Don't get cocky, kid.

I think of it more as Star Tours meets the first Figment scene from the original Imagination ride.

To the guest it'll be a smaller and more elaborate Star Tours.

In effect it's seven small Star Tours cabins on King Authors Carousel. Multiplied.

That's a novel concept.

 

[Rich T]

It's like Back to the Future meets Forbidden Journey meets Mo-Mo the Monster from Six Flags Over Mid America but without any vertical movement or spinning and no McFly or Potter.

All of a sudden the whole ride seems rickety! Go back to saying it's Star Tours cabins on Carousel of Progress.

 

[uncle jimmy]

found these on another site of patent plans disney has for a ride. *** Which is not for the said SW ride.
