Transformers: The Ride - Summer 2013

[JokerMan0925]

The Resistance Begins May 2nd. Anyone know what they mean by that?

 

[WadeWilson]

I got excited until the video took me back to the Facebook page. They're going to have people thinking the ride will be open tomorrow unless they say something. We know how the people on Facebook can be.

Announcment of Grand Opening as well as the start of a national media campaign.

Is the queue like disputable me? Or is there an inside queue also?

There is inside queue.

Lol'd so hard at that typo "disputable me" :rofl:

There is a heavily themed small interior queue, a small shaded queue with screens outside, a large unshaded queue outside, and an extended queue of poles and chains.

That is indisputably funny :rofl:

Just so y'all know I was joking about the trees, obviously they should not destroy them for a temporary thing.

I dont like how the police streamers are placed. Looks like a 5th grader just ran around and did it.

From the Universal Orlando Facebook page:

WARNING – Megatron has arrived in Orlando. Tomorrow we will announce the grand opening date for TRANSFORMERS: The Ride – 3D and share further instructions on how you can prepare for battle. You will be able to join the resistance, customize your own NEST ID, get exclusive video, images and more!
There’s no time to wait…

 

[JungleSkip]

^^^I think that makes it clear they weren't being cryptic with that Man in the Yellow Hat tweet yesterday.

They're as subtle as Michael bay...

 

[WolfmanJ]

NEST ID?!!?? If its one thing that gets me excited are customizable ID's. I've alwaya been intrested with them for some reason. They're just so cool to wear.

 

[Eric]

Does it bother anyone else that they did the EXACT same opening stunt in Cali? Don't get me wrong, I think it's cool, but the fact they've already done this, makes this seem much less exciting.

 

[Cwoolboy]

So, you think we will be making the N.E.S.T IDs in the queue or online?

It will probably be an online thing, where you insert a picture and change the name or title.

Agreed, because it sounds like you will be able to do this before the ride opens. Sounds like there will be online things we can do starting tomorrow, to "join" the resistance and then when they actually come on June 20th is when we would be able to ride it/experience the resistance.

It's publicity to the local market. The wrap on the staples center wasn't intended for or used as national marketing, rather to get the locals excited. This wrap is the exact same thing. Most of the people on this coast who are aware of the staples center follow theme parks.

So, you think we will be making the N.E.S.T IDs in the queue or online?

Yeah, its more or less the same, but I think the current video they made is WAAAYY better than the one they did for Hollywood!!!!

 

[Cwoolboy]

Are we going to get people walking around with signs saying the end is near and promoting the ride? That was a nice touch they added to Staples, and I'm hoping we get it here too
