This just jogged my memory. I could have sworn I saw Mark Woodbury and his wife (?) eating at FFB on Monday. He was sitting in the front of the building where guests place their orders. No one else was sitting in that area. Was that the same day you saw him?
I'm sure everyone is pleased with the reactions to TF. Maybe it's just because of Softs but I've never seen guests so hyped before and after riding something. The loading and unloading stations are so full of energy.
I hope the TM's keep up this energy and enthusiasm all summer. I'm going in August and it sounds like they do a great job of adding to the experience.
I'll admit, I had heard how awesome the TMs were for this ride but didn't really believe it until I saw it in person. They're fantastic. I remember one of the times I was waiting to board, our vehicle's TM was an elderly lady who was basically giving two kids in the row next to me a detailed mission briefing. The TMs are so into their roles, it's unbelievable. Hyping up the guests probably also helps capacity in a small way by motivating them to board quicker.
I tried to compliment the TMs roaming the area whenever I saw them. Really adds to the experience.
Edit - hearing the cheers helps to determine how close you are to the end of the queue, lol
So today I rode Transformers The Ride...
Overall I thought the ride was ok, I liked the way they used the physical sets in this ride a lot more than spidermans. I never really get excited to ride spiderman, sadly I feel the same way with this ride. I do not know what it is about this type of ride that makes me think meh. Anyways, the rides screens and physical sets were awesome. The screens were extremely vivid and cool to watch. As I said earlier the way they used the sets in this ride was awesome. So, my favorite ride in the park as you can see in my signature is still the mummy. I know everyone is gonna hate me for this post but just wanted to state my opinion on this ride type.
I stopped reading when you said you didn't get excited for Spider Man. No offense lol

Also pay attention to the numbers on the wall. They go from E1 to E7 in the main queue. When you see E6 you're about 3 minutes away from boarding. :thumbs: I went on 3 back to back rides last night..and then went back after 8 for a fourth. The single riders line is magic
