Hollywood Rip, Ride, Rockit (closing EOD August 17, 2025)

Here is a random question, I found my POV ride DVD from 2009, have they ever enhanced that thing with newer visuals or is it still mostly CGI? Have they also changed the audio that's used for the DVD?

got this photo yesterday.. so is this a joke? or did someone sneak in there and right this?

^ It ain't a joke... he is a big ole video game player and theme park queen. He has also been suspended from a few theme park forums.

^ lol

Is there any date rumored as to when this would go offline for the new trains? I'm guessing they would most likely wait until Despicable Me and the new entertainment starts up.

Surely he should be suspended from the park as well for doing this.

Yeah that is my hope. Looking at his photos he seems to not care about trespassing.

I want an update on this kid. lol Does anyone here know him?

There is now an electronic wait time sign for single riders. Wasnt able to grab a pic but maybe this will result in more people riding single riders? :shrug:

Rockit single rider line tends to fill up pretty fast and can sometimes actually move slower than the regular line.

And its so aggravating when it happens too. I got trapped up there one time for over an hour when it was newly opened.

 

[Cwoolboy]

Yea, Rockit is one of the few Single Riders lines I would rather NOT wait in.

 

[kingeric]

I agree if I am going to ride RockIt I am going to be with a group, or not ride it at all. I got stuck for a minute (60 - 90 seconds) on the lift hill once, and it was on of the very rare and few times I have actually felt scared on an attraction. While I am a big guy, I felt like I could slip out of the restraints.

Does RockIt have Express yet? (I'm Staying at the Hard Rock in April)

I wonder if this IS the reason for the wait time sign.

 

[Cwoolboy]

Yes, I'm pretty sure it has an express line now.

 

[PWT]

Yes, I'm pretty sure it has an express line now.

Say WHAT?

Thats a negative ghostrider. Repeat, negative on that question.

 

[Cwoolboy]

Sorry, I could have sworn it did by now. My bad

I rode Rockit this weekend. I don't know if I got a bad car or something but it was absolutely terrible. Last time I rode it was 2010 and even then it wasn't very good, but this was awful. It was incredibly jarring for a steel coaster and I only had audio on one speaker; I was just waiting for it to end. This ride really needs to be fixed because it was actually a great ride back when it opened/if you got a smooth car.

After I got a rough train for the fourth time in a row on this ride back in 2010, I vowed to never ride this ride, ever again. I feel your pain.
