I knew it was a long shot to ride this as this morning is our last this trip. It was still fun to be here when the walls came down. Now I just have one more reason to come back!

 

[epcyclopedia]

Well, I need to be there right at 4 to have any chance of ever riding the outside portion.

Softs vs TM previews are officially the new "walls are still up".

Hopefully for not nearly as long.

Just guessing, but I think the remainder of the week will be TM previews and next week they will begin with public softs. Gives them a few more days to iron stuff out.
Does anyone know how many RVs they have been running for TM previews?

My gut tells me that Universal is playing it by ear and they don't currently have a set plan. Just that one day in the very near future they'll eventually just decide, "okay remove the barricades and let the people in".

It's day to day. They're running with people, that's the only plan.

I like that Midway narrator guy... very easy to listen to. I have to mute some of the others.

 

[Cole]

that ride vehicle flows so smoothly!!! God I can't wait for this ride, especially after hearing about the AA rivers, so cool!!!

 

[Teebin]

Yeah, I would love to know the average time they are able to run it before it poops its pants.

BTW, that friggin music is stuck in my head again.

 

[Ryan]

Still dying to know who the composer for that score is.

I got to meet him on Monday when the walls came down, super cool guy! We swapped YouTube tips.

I've only spoken in one of my videos so far, and that was to give my thoughts on Mako. I like to let the ambient sounds of the parks fill the background of my vids, and just use subtitles to say what needs to be explained. But I like how he does his too, it suits his style.

I am a little confused about the drivers. Are the animatronic drivers simply the drivers? Or do they actually pretend to be the 5 different characters? I thought there would be an animatronic driver as well as an actual Team Member playing each different character, just like in The Great Movie Ride at Disney...

Im with you on that. Only I am getting more and more concerned that they just end up using TM's to soft this ride. They seem to have plenty that want to ride it repeatedly, potentially skipping public softs all together..

 

[epcyclopedia]

Just the AAs. Each vehicle is a particular one of the 5.

So far 3 have been seen during TM previews. That leaves Denham and the country girl to be spotted.

 

[epcyclopedia]

So there have been 3 drivers so presumably 3 RVs.

Don't read into it too much.

 

[Teebin]

It's a stress test. It's totally normal and fine.

But it's still fun to discuss all the little issues that come up. Fun fun fun if not hilarious.

Darn, those are the two I am most looking forward to too.
