I'm curious to hear why you think Kong has great ride repeatability? My wife and I were talking about this last night. 8 of us were at Universal last year and got to ride Kong. Only 1 of us liked it and she was the only one to ride it again. We are heading to Universal again a few weeks and have no interest in riding it again.
To me, this is a moving theatre. It's got set pieces. The car is boring, the screens are boring and the car shakes. I don't see a reason to ever do it again. The ride seems the same each time, unless I'm missing that there are different scenes for different rides.
I understand that Universal needed places to put people, but it's been sad that they built Fallon, Kong and now Fast and Furious. They all seem the same. Fast and the Furious is the biggest disappointment as it is neither fast nor furious. This was a great chance for them to make a Rockin' Rollercoaster type ride.
We are hoping that they build a new and exciting ride to get us to come back again next year. If they continue to build these IMHO "People mover" type of rides, we won't be back for a while.
Sheesh.... Different strokes for different folks, but most attractions even fantastic ones like Forbidden Journey or Haunted Mansion are pretty much the same every time you ride it.. Do you guys just not like attractions/rides? I can understand not being a huge fan of Kong, but to not ever want to ride it again seems odd for a theme park fan? Was your line like 3 hours or something? I mean I've only ridden Stitch's Great Escape once and I wouldn't miss other things for it, but I still would experience it again if the situation arose.
