I wonder if anyone on the forums knows whether its capacity is effectively utilized. A ride can still have high capacity but it won't eat crowds if no one wants to ride it.

Doesn't really have an effect on park capacity.

It's not running at full....but much like Twister, there's always someone riding it at least

I feel like even a few hundred people off the streets would be noticable

That queue feels like it's made to hold five thousand people though.

A few hundred angry people risking Covid to ride that trash would also be noticeable.

Imagine it's your first time in the parks in years and you've been holed up in your home for months due to Covid. You go over Labor Day weekend and the parks are slammed and because of social distancing, rides are running at less than half capacity. Weight times are huge every where and you have to be selective over the 6 rides you'll be lucky to ride that day. You decide to go on F&F because it's new.

So you battle the poorly social distanced crowds, you pay over 100 bucks to get into the park, you get in line and wait over an hour and ride F&F for the first time.

You are going to be pissed. Take to social media, scold the parks, give 1 star reviews, swear off revisiting the parks for life and wish you'd just stayed at home for another 6 months.

Nobody's saying it's a good ride

And we're talking in the future, i.e. when we find a solution via vaccine or people just stop caring about Covid

I'm of the opinion now that nothing would be better than reopening F&F.

So they took the "plot" from the Jimmy Fallon ride and wrote F9 on it. Not sure if the problem is solved.

Real talk, is it feasible to utilize the screen tech in Bourne on this and Kong?

It looks so real

I don’t think it’s as much about the screen tech as it is about decent CGI.

Maybe the worst CGI from a professional company ever. It's actually laughable, it's so amateurish looking. Hard to believe Universal signed off on it, and paid for such poor work. I wonder if any of the leads for that are still in the business.
It could have been a good High School video club project though....Nah....It's even too bad for that. ;) :lol:

I think everyone is right about the Bourne CGI just being all around better

Plus a new screen

Just reshoot/redesign the ride starring The Rock
