The supports and tracks are dark brown. Will we see a lot of the supports or the tracks when the ride is finished?

I think some will be but I hope that the majority won't.

I'm curious what the plan is for announcements if JP does get a coaster.

I mean that was the Disney fanboi creed before the screenz complaints started, so I would not be surprised to see it go back to that

After the JP addition the mantra will be "IOA is all coasters and soakers."

That’s fascinating. Does Disney market Everest as a family ride? I always thought they wanted Everest to be seen as a thrill ride, which is both strange and not what Universal wants?

Family not as in Little Mermaid is a family ride, but it's a thrill ride for the family. Something more accessible and less intense than HRRR or Hulk.

And then in a few years everyone will complain that everything is a trackless dark ride

Personally, I feel IOA has always been the coaster park, and it is a return to form

I don’t see anything wrong with IOA at this point in time, even with all the coaster rumors. It’s still the best theme park in Orlando.

Also, keep in mind that the LC replacement still hasn’t happened yet. I guarantee that we get a dark ride (possibly two) when that opens up.

It's nice to have coasters to offset the other rides. I love a good dark ride but sometimes I just want to go fast without it being simulated. Plus, they lost two coasters when Dueling Dragons left and so they'll be back to status quo.

Also...people just like coasters. Hell, Rip Ride Rockit is a TERRIBLE coaster, but the GP loves it.

Exactly. Coasters are people magnets. HRRR would be better without all the trim brakes.

Reminder: IoA was designed to be the antithesis of USF with outdoor rides, water rides, and coasters.

I like HRRR. I would ride it more if it had a shorter line.

I'm ok with trading DC for an immersive themed terrain coaster in Hogsmeade and a more thrilling coaster in JP.

Ya- Everest being 44” allows several 5 year olds and almost all 6 year olds to ride.
And even my 4 year old with a little help in the shoe.

So it’s certainly “family” if a 6 year old is on it. Whereas Hulk you usually aren’t getting on until you’re 9 or 10.

I like HRRR. I would ride it more if it didn’t give me a naueseating migraine after every time I rode it.

Yes. It's strength is it's diversity. Outdoor themed rides, indoor themed rides, coasters, water rides, shows, flat rides, huge kids areas. IOA has it all, plus sheer beauty, and more's coming.

:lol::).....Sinbad;) (I like the new version that they keep tweaking to keep fresh). ...PF to a degree, since it's a walk through. And, Hogsmead's two stage shows plus night castle show. And, though not technically a show, Raptor, the best M&G anywhere.
