My excitment went up when I heard a Gringotts coaster was replacing it. Now that we know alot more details I'm not mad at them anymore.

 

[JungleSkip]

How so?

I had been told the rumors a month or so before the closing. I didn't believe them until it closed. Once the news of the closing came about, well, it was exciting.

Keep in mind that the Jaws ride was going soon regardless of what was going there. It was so unreliable and expensive to keep running, it's time was inevitable. And a strobe light wasn't going to save it.

Didn't it cost about $70 each time the gas tank went on fire?

I said it here in July 2008.

i was laughed at.

That was before my time here.

So, might be what HatetoFly was talking about when he said Voldemort, but a possible source over at WDW Magic is saying there will be a Voldemort AA inside Gringotts that will be "Mindblowing"

I'd be all for a Voldemort AA if were being attacked by Death Eaters during the ride.

Oh, me gusta. Between Goblins in the lobby and the possibility of this alone... That's a spectacular E-Ticket.

I'm not a huge fan of Voldemort appearing, just because I think escaping him takes away a bit of his mystique, but if Uni can get a quality AA, something they've long struggled with, I'm all for it.

This is my line of thinking, too. :thumbs: I'm hoping that we'll see much more practical effects here as we did with FJ, but with that, more AAs than puppets.

The Gov. Scott AA is rumored to actually jump onto the ride vehicle.

Oh God. Not that rumor again.

I'd rather them just get a great, working AA in their parks before going that route.

Well we know how he feels about trains, the high speed type anyway, so the HE is safe at least.

 

[Hatetofly]

Sorry my inbox was full, now it's open :thumbs:

Haha. I had the same problem just now. Seems we were both scrambling to make room at the same time. Too funny.

I recently read through WWOHP phase 1 thread, there was quite a few things mentioned in 2008 that seem to be coming to fruition now. As you stated Jaws was mentioned and laughed at but the big one for me was HE mentioned as a means to connect the parks, also way back in 08. Although one guy,project strong arm i think, seemed to spout a load of BS whilst the real insiders were calling it spot on.There were alot of you guys back then but I was surprised not to see HTF, new name or later to the party?.All in all it was a long but worth while read. Great work guys.

 

[Swiminn6]

Could be a false trail. We will find out eventually.

:drool5: My impatience is killing me slowly.

 

[JungleSkip]

I feel like an AA is possible. I'm not buying the jumping on the vehicle part.

Didn't believe it for Mummy, don't believe it here.

 

[ThemeParks4Life]

At this point anything is possible.
