Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure Construction Discussion

I would imagine queue time was more related to its ability to eat almost 4000 people an hour (theoretically).

So true. Having two coasters but only one queue really helps the wait time.

I was watching the today show today, and they said if you're a harry potter fan make sure you watch tomorrow. I was wondering if it could be an announcement for the new ride.

Thanks for the heads up.

Yea I think it's probably the release of the new trailer that's (probably) going to be attached to Avengers

I would assume they'd be showing a BTS of FB2 or the Cinemacon trailer.

Might be for the b'way version of "Cursed Child" which just opened ... they might have members of the cast on.

Pretty sure it’s for the Broadway show

Something that’s been bugging me... I said no bike and sidecar.

I didn’t say no multiple bikes and sidecars.

Maybe.

Ugh. I hope not.

Actually I agree with him on most parts (the 15-20 minute waits is a fact, not an opinion. Heck, most of the time it didn't even get 10 minutes...). The whole design was built around dueling and without it, the coasters lost at least 50% of the thrill factor. Also, for whatever reason, it seemed to be slowly falling apart (there was a LOT of nightly welding going on)

The dueling was awesome for 8 people per pair of trains. For the rest, it was hardly noticeable.

I rarely noticed it when riding. The cool part was both trains leaving the station at the same time.

They rarely ran ar full capacity (2 trains vis 3) and I was even there when they would run 1 train each side and it wass a 10 minute wait.

Or the game that came out today...

May the Bike/Sidecar army rise!

Seems to me that would be an uncomfortable ride vehicle to be seated in while traveling up that spine in the middle of the ride, but I guess I could see it happening. Would rather it be a regular seat personally, but that's me.

Yea, the construction of the attraction gives me a hard time believing a motorbike seating arrangement will happen

Maybe these carriages?

I loved Ice & Fire, Montu is meh imo.

How dare you. Seriously though, you don't rate Montu? I love that coaster, a classic B&M with just the right amount if thrill and intensity and beautifully smooth. I'd even say it's relatively well themed.
