The Current State and Future of Universal Studios Florida

The Rock and Roll Coaster has to go as step one. Just doesn't fit and there are much better ones a train ride away.

Convert F&F to Scooby Doo second.

This path of destruction is so wide and unstoppable that it's hitting Disney rides too!

Y'all: Tear down RIP Ride Rockit!

Lol. I've always like RRR, the only thing I don't like about it are the belly busting restraints.

I think the joke rightly diagnoses that the people who want Jaws back won't shut up about it.

You’re so right! It gets pretty irritating seeing a thread like this on everything they post lol….
UOR Tweet: “Come spend the day with us”

Reply: “I would come if you brought back the old rides like Jaws, BTTF, Earthquake and Kong”.

ON EVERY SINGLE POST

Though the pacing wasn’t really on point like I expected before riding the first time, but it is an underrated coaster that just needs a refurbishment with some better track designs, and a wider music selection - It could be next after the Mummy.

I believe Maurer X-Car coasters are defunct. Once RRR is gone, it's gone. More likely is that the F&F drifting coaster coming to USH gets a USF version with a new layout.

Nor should they.....

Yes, they very much should lol

HRRR flat out is not worth running EXCEPT for guest satisfaction. This attraction has the most amount of downtime at UOR, it's insane.

F&F:S seems to have a way out if the USH coaster is good, the only spaces carrying under their weight would be FFL and Animal Actors.

Plus, I do hear rumblings of some sort of 2024 project...

Anything new is welcomed in the Studios at this point.

...as long as it doesn't involve removing MIB.

It doesn't sound like that would be easily clone-able at USF.

An Intamin or Mack airtime machine and nobody would even remember Rockit existed

I have a theory that Rockit would score much lower if it was on the other side of the soundstages

I'd imagine you're right. I've overheard guests saying after a full day there that they were re-riding Rockit & Mummy because they were "the only 2 real rides in the park."

Did they somehow miss MIB and E.T. ?!

But I obviously understand that general sentiment.

Rides = Coasters for some people

And also in my experience people just *say* things

I'm also assuming they probably weren't all that old lol

 

[Magic-Man]

If y'all get my ride shut down when I literally just started working it I swear to god.....

Go tear down Supercharged instead

 

[Viator]

They could still go for a similar coaster type, just with a varied layout to be able to mesh better with whatever Beijing does. A thought, but I don't think it'd be far fetched.

Congrats on the new job!
