Experienced my first ride stop on FJ right at the giant spider.
I was taking in the view, my fellow riders were doing everything they could to avoid looking at it.

Hahaha! i always think "Don't E stop! Don't E stop!" right there. lmoa!
This is the best!
I had a real real long E stop in front of the dragon. That's rough with the constant smoke in your face.

Hmm, they're supposed to shut him off.
Supposed to and doing it must be two different things. It was memorable though.
Yeah, I would never ride that again..I don't do spiders...I don't care if they are real or fake haha
So, I'm guessing Shelob's Lair on a Lord of The Rings ride would freak you out?
Oh yes! I didn't even go near the Aragog thing in the HP Expo this year if that tells you anything
Spider Man?
Favorite super hero ironically...I just remember he is a human with gross spider abilities..
Kong just doesn't do it for me. The ride looks amazing from the entrance, but it feels WAY too short, and having the main scene in the same spot without having something we've never seen before seems a little lazy in ther part. We all know what bobbing side to side is. If your gonna have a 3 minute scene in the same place, then they should have thought of something very elaborate and fix that God damn empty space in front of the arena. The floor should have had screens or something that make it EXTREMELY realistic. The ride is pretty realistic, but I want something brethtaking for p the main scene. Also, the cars are a problem. They should have less rows and maybe elevate them from each row. Kinda like Gringots and rockit where each row is slightly elevated. And they should have 2 connected cars like Gringots, just in the form of a truck. A little something extra could be making the seats more comfortable like space mountain.
I rode the other day and the movement didn't work in the 360 room...totally kills the ride completely...Also - it's crazy with current projection tech that they haven't found a way to do something more than just having black dividers cover the bottom half of the screen...It's as if unless you sit in the exact center past row five, you're screwed..
Good thing though - the roof projections were working in the 360 room, and it really adds to the effect overall
But I'm nothing was working in the 360 room, damn, the line you made was kinda a waste of time. Even when I wait 25 minutes for the ride and it works perfectly, I feel like it was a waste of time
Entrance music
Raptor Chase
Bats Take Flight
All original scores from the ride I just recently found. They sound AMAZING!

Still very popular with park guests! Wait time at around 6pm today was 100 min standby and express was estimated at around 45 min.
Yep. At one point in the afternoon I saw it at 150 minutes on the Touring Plans app.
Well the movie of a similar name just came out, so maybe that has something to do with it.
I just saw Kong skull island and some of the props, character voices, and creatures were similar from the ride. I found a few of the characters voices in the movie were similar to the ride characters. The props like the skull head were the Same from the ride. The music was also very similar and the main antagonist creature in the movie looked like a dinosaur. A scene in the movie were bats carry a man away reminded me also of the ride. Another thing, when you walk into the ride and hear the old timely music with the radio talk show host introducing the exploration, it corporates with the plot of the movie and the time setting. The whole basis of the movie is exploring a lost island and the ride similar to this idea.
Probably. The times have seemed to spike a bit this weekend.....But it still almost always has long lines on weekends and even weekdays. Plus it is a high capacity attraction, so it's still attracting quite a crowd.
