Watching this back after all these years... I wonder if there could ever be a character like George again in a theme park show. He was clearly... uhh... challenged.

Hey everyone, long time no talk. I was digging through my garage yesterday and found a long-missing tape of an old show called SpectraBlast. For those that are unfamiliar, SpectraBlast was the marquee show at an event called Hollywood Nights that took place in the summer of 1994. Tons of...

Ride has been broken down now for quite some time.

You’re literally talking about me.

Guy in the purple shirt worked on this website before you were even born.

Ah, I've only ridden one of the two that are still open I guess.

He may be referring to the fact that if you don't pull up on your mat you pretty much do a nose dive?

I get the feeling that this was all supposed to be announced sooner than it actually was. That's a huge bummer for anyone from out of town. I totally understand why they picked that day though.

I think my favorite part is when the light is shining through the windows from the inside of the castle. A pretty great effect that really messed with your head. Who else has been seeing it? Thoughts?

When you say it's the worst ride, do you think it's actually bad? I thought it was pretty fun.

We talk about it a little on an upcoming podcast, but if they don't do a Hello Kitty Cafe, I think they are missing out.

I was expecting the same... Something to note however is that Universal Studios Hollywood just released a new website that has a Grinchmas section which states it is coming back this year. Could just be remnants of the past, but it seems Grinchmas may not be going away.

That's a fantastic idea. I just wonder if the Animation Store will be too far away? Before Cartooniversal was demolished the two buildings did not touch and there was a Team Member outlet into the park right between them. If they reroute that path though, I could totatlly see the buildings...

I believe it. To me it was so subtle that you're not going to feel gipped on one profile or another. Barely noticible.

I have done two of the profiles and I've watched a number of videos with the other profiles and to me it seems they are mostly similar if not exactly the same. the main difference between the profiles is the music and the scene you watch. The drops can't be random because they play with...

First of all, I think some folks have been confused because of the six different ride profiles. It is for sure a little confusing. To be clear, the drops are not random, the ride profile that is selected is random. So that determines things like which song you hear and the scenes you see. As far...

My thoughts on the building are a little complicated. As I said in my previous post, it does a great job of telling a story. This thing is harsh and foreboding, displays an enormous amount of power, and doesn't look like anything from this world. That being said, the building IS gaudy...

I'll be there tonight hoping it happens again!

So who has been on the ride? I'm not talking about watching a video, I'm saying who's been on it? What are your thoughts? It was actually much better than I was expecting. QUICK UNEDITED THOUGHTS: Rocket Raccoon animatronic is really fun to watch over and over again. His drawings are great...

Expect them to match the architecture style of the Studio Store and Starbucks. They want it to feel a bit more like old Hollywood.
