Wouldn't that make it a 'Hidden Dicky' ?

To be honest, a ridethrough is not going to give you the full in-your-face ride you get with the 3D. It really is a jaw-dropping ride.

It will be interesting to see if it can survive the build up. Fortunately, I was not on message boards about disney and such things at the time, so I knew nothing about it. Spiderman was actually an afterthought at the end of a long fun day at IoA. We were on the way out of the park, and saw the ride which was almost tucked away. The line didn't look too long, so we decided...why not.

Man, was I blown away...and so thankful that I hadn't just walked out of the park, as originally planned.

Another line impediment ala Buzz- you spend more time waiting for some family to take a picture in front of Leota Lightyear than the actual ride.

Yeah, that's what they said it was from the beginning.
