Jurassic World VelociCoaster Construction Thread (Opening June 10)

[shiekra38]

Can we haz that please?

 

[Scott W.]

Personally I'd love to see it but I don't think it would be very fitting for the area.

Beginning looks very nice, that double barrel row going into the half looping part. This would have been great set in a jungle, imagine this coaster zipping through trees etc.

That would be great but I also don't mind it zipping through a busy, Jurassic Park Park. It's very Jurassic World to me.

 

[Disneyhead]

I, in general, like seeing coasters in theme parks, but this one is a little too intrusive. Mainly the stretch in front of the Discovery Center.

In what way is it like Jurassic World?

 

[Fatality]

 

[Scott W.]

I can see that from the point of view of the rider but I think Jurassic Park and Jurassic World should look like it's not constantly under attack and operating as normal where something will only go wrong on a ride.

 

[Fatality]

Better?

 

[Fatality]

Pteranodon dinosaurs, rulers of the skies,

will hold passengers by their backs as they turn 360 degrees in the air and fly at great speeds, any way their wild instincts dictate, over the world of Jurassic Park.
Experience overwhelming thrills beyond imagination.

The world's best flying roller coaster combines three elements: the world's longest course with sharp rises and drops,* overwhelming g-force generated by the world's greatest height differences,* and the enchanting world of Jurassic Park.

This is a next-generation roller coaster that lets you fly through the sky like a bird, facing downward, and directly experience the wind and thrills from head to toe.

I will agree with Disneyhead on the Discovery Center but I think that, on the whole, this will be seen as a huge win with the crowds.

It looks like they got a superb coaster which is themed nicely and "fits" with a good story. This thing at least has "reason" to be intrusive, unlike HRRR.

 

[Scott W.]

Better?

A bit busy for my liking but yeah.

 

[*Q*]

To my memory, roller coasters are never even hinted at in any of the four movies or the two books.

Correct. They are not.

 

[Kraken&Manta]

Personally, I find the ride unacceptable. Pterosaurs are flying reptiles, not dinosaurs. How could they have made such a mistake?

haha. I am guessing this was sarcasm. If not, than the same reason the fictional series always has the title "Jurassic." Creators of entertainment, not scientists.

Just like Manta rays don't fly through the open air? hmmmmmmmm?

 

[anihilnation]

Funniest thing is in the Manta queue line when people see the stingrays and say: look mantas.

 

[Brian G.]

Just like Manta rays don't fly through the open air? hmmmmmmmm?

Well, kinda not true

 

[Mad Dog]

Wow, they look like they're having a great time.

 

[MrRoamer]

Its crazy how high manta's can jump out of the water. I've seen it several times down in the Keys. Quite impressive and also very frightening.
