It's exactly the ride system in this video, skip to 15 secs in to see it in action.
The screen does not move with the ride vehicle, so not like star tours. The seats are all together, not in groups, so not like Minions or Simpsons.
*sigh*
Insisting no one else is allowed an opinion without having gone on the ride while at the same time saying they're being too negative while you as well have not been on the ride is hypocritical.
And then going even further and making statements about how you're sure it's perfectly fine, passable, etc.. again, hypocritical.
If you think no one can form an opinion by seeing what's able to be seen then you also dont get to have an opinion of any sort at all either.
Stop using the guise of "but you havent been on it" to try and obscure the fact that you simply don't like any sort of critical discourse and want everything to always be rainbows and kittens, regardless of the reality.

Response 1: I was just overextending the fact that the rides universal is currently making aren't that great. It's my opinion, as well as a lot of people have the same feelings as I do. What I said wasn't something so horrible that it had to shock the thread. Everybody else is complaining about the Fallon and F&F, so don't act like I'm the only one @Teebin. :ban:
Response 2: I never said it was "my theme park" also, I never said universal was a bad park. I mentioned that the rides currently built and being built are not my faves. I will continue going to universal and if I have a remark on a ride, don't bother to add you opinion on my comment both of you.
*Not trying to be rude just don't lie

I don't lie.
I'm not judging your opinion. It's just that I find negativity towards entertainment, such as a theme park, is stupid.
-Fallon has been told to stop using "coaster" and the ride's name within the same sentence. UC does not want people to be over hyped about this one...

NBC is going full out with this ride.
The Tonight Show, NBC Stars, and the Today Show will all be presented heavily in Orlando thru out the week.

They need a re-shuffle in creative, if they go at it solo it sucks... Team up and they can shock the entire industry..

Personally curious, have you actually ridden the attraction yet?

This thread is giving me a migraine. Please be mindful of how your tone comes across, and please let's not go looking to poke any bears.
@LJGonz - stop with :ban:

omg no... never,unfortunately ... Im a very sheltered woman... I don't get out much
From what I've seen on youtube I'm impressed. This isn't a huge building and they managed to put a lot in there to keep guests entertained for a nice chunk of time.
- The exterior is a big improvement.
- The "getting a ticket for the show" is unique and fits the attraction. I also love the costumes of the team members.
- The holding rooms look beautiful. The museum part looks very nice and is a great tribute to the show's history.
- The games and interactive entertainment look fun.
- The live entertainment was sure a surprise and from what I've seen people enjoyed it.
- Haven't seen the ride itself and probably I need to skip it due to my health but I'm ok with that regarding the other experiences.
- The store has unique merchandise to the ride and a bit of NBC history merch. It's always great when a theme park takes that effort.
- Extended restrooms was much needed and although I probably never use the vip area I'm impressed they managed to put it in there.

It's kind of irritating that Universal can probably twist the description of this ride in so many ways to make it sound different from everything else when it's virtually just the same experience.
Just to make a small point. I think it's incredible that Universal have managed to gut Twister and soft open it's replacement within 16 months.

@epcyclopedia summed it up pretty well. This thread has been a bit annoying to read when the slightest bit of criticism gets hounded.

Rode it yesterday. Had expectations set low. I throughly enjoyed it. The screen is enormous and the placement of the ride vehicle is perfect. Very immersive.
None of the smells seemed to be working on our ride through yesterday.
The water effects were very very light sprinkles.
