I love FJ, however I always leave Spiderman a little more content...Rideability Spiderman still get the nod for me as best ride in Orlando then FJ, then Tower
Probably because FJ is really moving and shakes you A LOT. I always end very dizzy after the second ride.
Spiderman feels more "fun" and less shaking.
But seriously, the FOJ queue is incredible.
Entering the class rooms and the moving/talking portrait rooms was fantastic. I was open mouthed from start to finish when I was there the first time.

So based on the last few pages either we are getting Forbidden Journey in Tomorrowland or a ride with a really really long name. ;)

Honestly, I am now confused.

I'm curious why you find SM better when FJ is essentially an upgraded form of it with infinitely more practical efects and AAs?
Technology doesn't make an attraction good. Having said that, both are excellent. Personally, I like SpiderMan better.

I agree. FJ does a fantastic job with the queue, and the ride is great. However, the ride is a bit too herky-jerky, doesn't make the transitions to and from the screens that smooth, and the practical effects of the spiders and dementors is a bit cheesy (so many spiders that are static, or, are just obviously lowered on a string). I roll my eyes a bit at the lifelessness of the practical effects.

SM's queue doesn't have nearly the depth of FJ, but it doesn't have to. It's an animated/comic book worlds and a lot of the details don't need to be filled in. But the SM ride is smooth, has great transitions, and the practical effects are OK (the truck and the moving windows). The real kick that SM has is that people scream at the illusion of vaulting over a skyscraper and plummeting to the ground. The ride itself is only being lowered a few yards, but the illusion works so good.

I couldn't agree with you more about every single letter you typed. You hit the nail on the head IMO.

In case I missed the count what IPs have been proposed for the Stitch location? I assumed it was already locked for WiR/Sugar Rush but now I'm hearing GOTG:BO could be ported over with ease. By my count that makes 5 IPs considered for this location correct? Surely it's 100% greenlit by now with the IP already chosen!?

It's not green lit. A few... snags... were hit.

Sugar Rush may still happen. But other themes are also being discussed. A bit of a mess.

Guardians is still proposed for Energy (oh well)

The whole thing... was for Sugar Rush to replace Stitch? or to replace the racing cars area?

Oh, I am just not even surprised right now. Ok, I'm feeling a bit cynical, I'll go watch something Disney and come back.
