Hollywood Rip, Ride, Rockit (closing EOD August 17, 2025)

Does the current FAST coaster being built in California have a 2 story building ? Real curious what they decide to do here. While a new fast ride seems obvious , it also sounds kind of boring to me. Maybe because I don’t like the series in general.

Like how Cool would an ecto 1 themed launch coaster with indoor ghost scenes be instead ?

I can't remember the last time I saw a Rockit shirt. Maybe they always existed after the opening and I never noticed. This is cool though. For as much as I loathe how rough the ride is, I will probably get this shirt lol

Oh wow! I'm guessing since this was released a few months before closure, it won't be so limited like the Poseidon and Shrek 4D shirts.

Hasta!

Its giving last year's HHN "punkz" merch vibes. Still dislike the yellow/red color scheme for Rockit. They should slap this graphic on the back of a hoodie too

Tummy check on aisle 2

It looks like early work is being done by Hard Rock Cafe for the Rockit replacement. Work walls now blocking off access directly in front of the Rockit final helix and to the Berlin Wall.

Just wondering if the secret song menu is currently available, with the ride closing and all.

Is the coaster going to jump into CW?

I dont think so. IIRC the load station is gong to move further right

Squeezed in a ride earlier this week. I'm good to wait closer to closing before I do that again, it was not smooth whatsoever.

The track could still jump over the walkway there, that doesn't have to deal with the station. It's already a great tease to see the coaster there so if they extend it a little more it would be even better.

Never went on this ride because I had read it was very rough. Space Mountain gives me a headache so I wasn’t taking a chance.

With site prep already commencing, it wouldn't be surprising to see this open up Spring 2027, lines up with Hagrid's speedy 1.8 year build.

Good guess. Universal likes those late spring opening dates, even though summers are no longer the big traffic months in Orlando theme parks like they used to be. Sounds like Memorial Day week 2027 for grand opening......

I think it’s kinda funny that the HHN website still has this as their picture to represent rides.
