Those movies are a little dated and the projection system is hard on the neck. This system would do really well at setting the stage. Plus, the movies could be tailored to different areas of the countries represented.

It would have been nice to see the Tritech, Dynamic Attractions, or Vekoma flying theaters which have the cool seating system like Soarin'. However, I am still excited to ride this. Disaster was okay but this could be a lot of fun.

What???? I thought that I was magically transported from Orland to New York City. A pox on you, Mad Dog, for ruining the illusion.

No, but i've been on Europe in the Air. That ride system was embarrassingly atrocious. It was literally laughable. I'm worried that UC is starting to think it's fine to quickly slap a ride together and just say "at least the queue's pretty good". It takes a lot for me to be disappointed in them, I'm the biggest Uni fan i've met. I'm calling it now, few people are going to like this ride.

Maybe it'll be popular enough to draw people from Kong so its 10min wait is only 5.

Well, it won't be entirely identical and will also be brand new instead of decades old

So, you haven't ridden it, or seen the final product. I'd say wait until we actually see it to start judging who's going to like it and if we're going to like it.

I completely see where you're coming from...It seems Universal has started to worry more about queues since that's where people spend the majority of their time..I would imagine the budget for this ride is way more than anything at BGW, and the projection will be far above what they've had before

I recall that when Europe In the Air came out that there were major complaints about the film itself & the projection. I would think Europe's problems were that and not the motion theater. The theater was pretty decent with Corkscrew Hill, plus the theater is kind of a dated version by now since it's been around pretty long.

IMO, this ride is going to add to the New York section of the park, which needs a little more detailing considering all there is are some cardboard cut outs of buildings and the mummy ride. The only thing I love about the New York section is the buildings, but the alley ways are closer to San Fran. I just think to myself, twister or Fallon? These people are turning a 0 attraction into a 10 attraction. He is the face of New York talk show, and a lot of people love his awesome personality and witty humor. They are consuming no extra space in the park and making a really good attraction out of it, that I think will be getting a Kong lengthed wait. I'm pretty exited for this ride. I like jimmy and it's better than twister, as swell as a new attraction not yet seen in universal. I don't think universal is gonna put some cheap screen and lame ride expirince. They are even more creative than Disney, and I'm pretty sure that they wouldn't just put a sucky attraction or an attraction that they didn't think wild last long in the public eye. I trust universal.

To me, i have a strange feeling that Fallon may be the first attraction in USF to use something similar to what Tapu Tapu is doing for Volcano Bay south of the property. It makes sense, considering that there are certain elements of this attraction like the elements in the line that would probably lead well to that type of technology being used as a test for future attractions to come.

It's all hypothetical for now; but that is something of not being surprised if it truly happens for Fallon.

I bet you'll get a return time to see the next "taping" of the show.

Ya think? That would be a clever idea if not for the fact that I told everyone here they were going for queue-less over a year ago.

95% of guests who ride this won't care what system Universal uses... for them it's just a ride.
