It is kind of funny that the CGI Fluffy from the recent commercial looks much better than the original CGI from the first film. Not much they can do about that. Which is my main complaint with CGI films...they will eventually look dated by technology, no matter what. A puppet still looks like a puppet, 50 years later..

I'm surprised no one has been able to snag a better picture of Fluffy so far

"Roller coaster-type ride" is the language used, because it's a legal safety spiel. The ride has coaster elements. It is not a roller coaster.

Space Mountain says the same thing and its definitely a roller coaster :D

Excuse you. Space Mountain is a legitimate rocket ride through space.

I don't understand creating your own rules just to get mad about the rules you created. I call it a rollercoaster but it doesn't do things other rollercoasters do, aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!

It’s easily a roller coaster. Just not a good one. Rides that aren’t roller coasters wouldn’t have roller coaster parts at all. It’s simple logic.

Journey Into Imagination with Figment uses roller coaster parts. It's a full-circuit roller coaster on roller-coaster track.

Alright - we’ve all made our points. The conversation now needs to be dropped and left to all things Hagrid.

I feel AA tech has come far enough to break down a whole lot less than back in the day (Mummy, JP, MIB, etc)...It will be interesting to see how often the creatures in Hagrid go down

Yes that’s true but that doesn’t they hold up either and can look extremely dated as well...looking at a lot of 90s movies.

That’s why I’m hoping it’s just the aerials and it’ll look realistic up close.

Yeah I've been trying to zoom in real close to see FLUFFY and to no point, I can't get a really good view of it. But, I am wondering if the way it looks has something to do with our lovely Orlando weather, with pop up storms, downpours, occasionally hurricanes. That's just my take on it, otherwise they would probably have to replace stuff such as the fur almost all the time. However, hurry up June 13th, I will be there anyone else gonna be there?

I'm so excited to ride this! By the looks of it, they set the June 13th date to coincide with that event from the books, so fingers crossed for softs in late May!

I think we'll be wizzing past him so quick that the smooth outer skin wont matter too much...while at the same time it will be weather resistant

Looking at the rock structure built around Fluffy, to somewhat protect Fluffy from the elements.

I would hope the Creative team designed in a retractable garage door or something similar to put him to sleep each night and during bad weather.
