While I'd obviously have loved a dark ride in the vain of SLOP in USH, I know my almost 3 year old is going to love this ride/Minionland. They've knocked it out of the park for fans of the minions.
I always have to remind myself that what (and I'd think many of us on IU) I think would be best for a theme park, may differ (sometimes greatly!) from the casual theme park goer. I think a lot of us want more coasters and dark rides, but Minionland will get people to the park, especially younger families once the Kidzone overhaul is completed
