It looks like a fun coaster, sure, but the theming is very light and the shark exibit will be the same old little tank in comparison what other ocean parks offer.
Is this going to get the turnstyles turning? How many of the family's that visit Orlando are going to visit the park because of this?
I'd rather Sea World would get better at theming like this:
Is a Disney-style dark ride going to get the turnstiles turning? You need to consider the competition...what can SeaWorld offer that Disney and Universal can't offer a better version of? The biggest roller coaster in Florida. Is it gonna make people fly across the country? No. But it'll pique the interest of nearby guests, and honestly not only is that all they'll need to recoup their investment (a roller coaster is cheaper than a Transformers or King Kong) but it's all they need to turn their attention away from Blackfish. Not everyone can be or wants to be number 1 in the market. They'll win their own smaller battles with this ride.
