Hey! That was boring to! Had to wait like 1.5hrs to ride that thing.

I've been to quite a few: Movieworld Dreamworld Seaworld Wet 'n' Wild Aussieworld AdventureWorld Wonderland Disneyland Paris Magic Kingdom Epcot MGM Studios Animal Kingdom Typhoon Lagoon Blizzard Beach Seaworld Orlando Wet 'n' Wild Orlando US Islands of Adevnture Disneyland ... think thats about it. I dunno I am a bit of a thrill seeker and I have no problems with sim rides but BTTF was just horrible - but its 50/50 - half the people on US boards hate it, and half love it Dunno what MIB you went on, but the one I went on was zzzzzzzzzzzz.... btw I loved buzz light year that rocked! Someone on the ride stood up so they stopped the cars moving and I point whored hehehe

Actually, it was the park that I was most looking forward to. I dunno, after being at Disney for 2 weeks, when we arrived at US and were pretty much the only ones there, we didnt feel as 'safe' as we did at Disney. The themeing was great and all but the rides were just boring except for Revenge of the Mummy! That rocked - rode it 4 times in a row without getting off! Twister was boring, earthquake was boring, Shrek was boring because I had already seen it at Movieworld, Jaws was ok: scared the crap out of me, Back to the Future.... well.... worst ride I've ever been on! Men in Black.... it was ok... I went on it after BTTF (which made me throw up by the way).... so the spinning on MIB didnt help... but it was still 'dull' Didn't go on ET, and there was another Sim ride we went on (Jimmy Neautron I think) which was boring too..... But why open a park up at 9am If half the rides dont open till 10am, 11am, 12pm etc....? Just a bit weird My whole family agreed that the park just wasnt worth it. Islands of Adventure on the other hand rocked!

I guess, but when compared to other similiar rides like Disneys Kali River Rapids, there just a joke.... Here is the only footage I have found on youtube: Doesnt show much, I will go ask over at the Disney boards if someone has a video. Its just themed so good.... like when the ride starts your climbing up a belt in mist so you cant see anything, your surrounded by jungle plants and it just feels so real. You jump on dreamworlds river rapids and its like "yukk... I hope I dont get wet, the water looks filthy".

Yeah the foghorn rooster is out the front of it "this attraction is temporairly closed for refurbishment".

I didnt go on ET while I was there. Was it good? By the time we got around to ET, BTTF had made us so sick we didnt want to go on anything else. I must say I would definetly NOT recommend Universal Orlando to anyone - it is the worst park I have ever been too. We arrived at 9am (which was when the park opened) - only to find out that half the attractions didnt open up till around 12pm... The only good thing about the park would be Revenge of the Mummy - one of the top rollercoasters I've ever been on! Earthquake sucked, Back to the Future was terrible, MIB sucked, Jaws was 'ok', not to mention the park was a ghost town till about 12pm.... I actually have pictures of an empty park. We left about 11:30am and headed over to Islands of Adventure - now thats a good theme park! So many good rides there.... hulk, spiderman, dudley doo falls, rapids, jurassic park, duelling dragons. Left there at 5pm on a bus back to our Disney resort, park was very quiet so we managed to do everything we wanted too. But yeah, I definetly wouldnt recommend Universal Orlando to anyone - one of the worst parks I've ever been too without a doubt. Here are some pics of the empty park:

They should have closed river rapids and the log ride too, and refurbished them because they all suck! I mean seriousley, there is only so many pieces of chewing gum that one can stick on the walls on the log ride......

The rapid ride already sucks...... u go through a dark tunnel with pretty much nothing in it.... then down a stream with concrete walls and pretty much no themeing..... dreamworld needs to look at disneys kali river rapids in animal kingdom if they want to have a good river rapids ride...... (it rocked)

yeah it still is one time batamn didnt even appear! and he started talking hhaha other than that his hand is a bit floppy when he says "hi folks".... its as if hes doing a gay wave

wow the tower of terror one is really good.... especially when you've been on the ride yourself and know how it works

same thing happened to me and a few friends last week we were stopped just before the last big drop in the main track area you could see all the cars backed up in the jungle themed part just before you drop under the now non-working red lazer

lots of simpsons advertising at universal orlando citiwalk when i was there in jan i think their back to the future ride has closed now (thanks god - it really sucked), so its likely to end up there

dreamworld has been going downhill for years i would rate it below movieworld and wet n wild now not to sure about seaworld, havent been there for ages

you wouldnt be hoping for a MIB alien escape ride if you've actually been to it IT SUCKS!

Very kool! That launched rollercoaster looks almost identical to Superman Escape here at MovieWorld, except I think SE launch might be a bit shorter, and the one in your video is a bit taller.

Hes the best part about the stunt show! haha

Yep! Just got back from Walt Disney World and I have to say Animal Kingdom was by far the best themed park I have ever been too! IF ONLY dreamworld could upgrade there river rapids to be like the kali river rapids @ AK! It was awesome and you get absolutley soaked! I loved the bit at the start where your climbing up the ramp in the mist and cant see anything!

Your a bombers supporter. Wow, no suprises there at all! Good on ya Browny!!!!!

I just got back from WDW in Florida and I had an interesting story with an aussie Cast Member. "Apparently" they were going to build the next park in Australia or China. They ended up going for Shanghai...... so dissapointing.

*off topic* Tom is your avatar from expidition everest @ disneys animal kingdom?

Anyone have a picture with SE and Batwing in it? I'm not to sure how often google earth is updated?

Well the cyclone is boring...... I see people say that all over the forums! And when you comapre it to lethal/superman it just cant compete! Dreamworld used to be the best by far but there rides are just too old now. I would have picked dreamworld over movieworld anyday but movieworld is just so much better then dreamworld now. BTW I have annual passes for both dreamworld and movieworld. Movieworld has less rides yes, but I would prefer to go on fewer rides that are quality, then lots of rides which arent that fun. They really need a new coaster.

Yeah ok..... look the pigs are flying.

Big Brother? Its an awesome TV show yes, but whats it really got to do with dreamworld? you dont get to ride it do you? when its not in production you get to tour it *woopdedo* BOORRRRRIIIINNNNGGGG need I say more?

No point getting rid of it...... superman would just become more packed! BTW I was at movieworld yesterday and they had 2 trains going for SE...... max wait was about 5min all day, sometimes we walked straight on and the park was packed!
