Rockin' Space Mountain - Page 14

It's interesting to ride once, and see the stuff you normally don't see - but for any notion of simulated space flight - nah, it's just a coaster with music and a rather lame light show. Put some hot CMs in go-go cages, hang a few gobos, anything. I think this is fine for a grad night change up, but as a makeover? eh build a real rockin Roller coaster.

I never made it to the park. After an AMAZING hockey game I had to head home. Stupid cold and no voice. Soon. I hope soon.

A cold hocky arena with a cold? That sucks.

I hope you feel better soon.....

I have to agree with you guys on that, it needs more. I didn't ride it but I expected more and what I saw on YouTube was sad.

But, like I said, the Hubster and Boy loved it. They said I probably wouldn't get motion sick since it does 'feel' like it is going more slow.

Sorry you feel so bad, BTD.

Sigh. Is it April 27th yet?

Yes, we rode it. It was like riding a poorly done iPod commercial.

I enjoyed the ride. I dug seeing the track. I've always liked the song, it was plenty loud, and I felt it went well with the ride. Uncle Joe Benson doing the countdown made me laugh in recognition. I would totally ride it again.

The projections were lame and the lighting was crappy. It could have been so much better. But that's what we were told - they cut the budget on this in order to have it open on time for the 50th.

I agree that it's unnecessary, that they shouldn't have done this stupid Rockin Both Parks crap, and especially annoying that Lashbear is getting screwed, but I'm really glad they didn't go with Hoobastank. As it is, I can enjoy it just fine until they pull it out again.

I know I'm in the minority. Guess I'll have to ride it with Nirvanaman and Babette.

I'll still ride it with you. I can't wait to see Rose's reaction - seeing as we rode WDW'S Rock N Rollercoaster 32 times in one day, Uncle Joe's voice has a certain painkilling (or inducing) effect. I wanna put a "As Seen On Rockin' Space Mountain" sign on all the ODV Spinny Light carts at DL
