TRON Lightcycle Run

[GAcoaster]

I can't imagine that's just going to be a dark, unthemed tunnel. I would expect something of visual interest in there, even if it's basic.

Line the walls with fiber optics and pump in the Daft Punk TRON: LEGACY score.

I would have expected the concrete overpass to have received some sort of theming as well, but for almost 50 years the WDW Railroad has just passed under a generic concrete bridge. I'm setting expectations low...

Progressing well;

That's true, they could put some TRON-esque lighting in there, paint the walls blue and maybe pump daft punk like you said. Not a lot, but better than nothing. And honestly it'll probably be better than what was there before because before it was nothing

I mentioned this on Magic today, but I could see them giving us a Hollywood tram tour-style video, with lightcycles racing us through the tunnel. No stops or crazy effects, just projections on either side of the Grid.

How many ways can one man say "i'm hyped for this ride?" Apparently 3 because i can't think of anymore.

 

[Nick]

The canopy will be the most time consuming and expensive part of this project. The show building for this ride looks terrible from Storybook Circus... hope there’s a plan to fix that with a berm or something.

I get it’s Tron and the ride deals with the grid, but the backslash in the title is dumb af.

I can’t wait to ride the new C:\\ RUN Tron Coaster

Maybe that’s what Hagrid needs to have the ride operate reliably?

A couple hard reboots could do it some good.

 

[Jwhee]

Why change the name? Thought it was Tron Lightcycle Power Run?

I give the new title a C++

They probably felt the original name was too clunky (which it was). Tron Lightcycle Run isn’t great, but it’s better than having Power in there for no reason.

That, is a terrible pun good sir.

I actually prefer the title with power in it when saying it out loud.
