Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

[epcyclopedia]

I don't think the hook thing on the doors is hurting capacity. 2mins was the load time as planned before anyone knew the doors would be an issue. If anything, it gives them something to do for those 2 mins.

Btw boo holes were empty

 

[SandiestPirate]

Boo holes were empty for me too. People using phone flashlights to peak in their too which i thought was wicked disrespectful

 

[WAJAS]

Closed for the day.

 

[ThemeParks4Life]

How many vehicles are/were running?

 

[Cheezbat]

Closed for the day.

So many profanities on my lips right now. I literally just got to the park.

 

[UNIrd]

Got here an hour ago from Miami but line was already closed. Can see people in line for Kong, Hulk testing, too late for plastic AP. In other news, I finally experienced Moe's Tunnel of Shame and Rejection.

The reason of it is because of the insane wait as is, because of it apparently clocking over two hours.

I love reading wdwmagic forum comments they are saying everyone is slamming this attraction hahaha delusional Disney fanboys

 

[Teebin]

Thanks for all the general reviews everyone! I am beginning to get a better idea of how it plays, and it sounds very promising.

Do not listen to any negative reviews and do not watch any POV videos. It is truly a 360 immersive experience and the motion of the vehicle sells it

Nice to hear you confirm what we've been talking about for the last 24 hours. POV's be damned! :thumbsup:

 

[Teebin]

And Teebin has said that maybe they should keep a bicycle pump nearby.

To clarify this. There was a time when they thought they had a leak, perhaps because the motion wasn't working. At the initial time, they could find no leak, so perhaps that wasn't the issue. Sometimes I try to be too cutesy with info. Sorry.

 

[sonoma15]

Hey, didn't Teebin say their were some funny stories that happened during construction, it would be cool to hear them. Also I will post a review after tomorrow where I get hopefully, my 3rd ride.

 

[Talking Head]

Not sure if I am recalling correctly, but back when folks were sharing early info about rein of Kong, I thought folks were mentioning a scene after the ride, for some reason I thought something was going to happening in exit walkway or something.

Anyone know if I am recalling correctly? If so, is it just that the Kong AA is towards the end or something and that is the surprise that folks might not be expecting?

Yeah, what happened with that?

I haven't seen any purely negative reviews, but a lot of people have said the queue is superior to the ride.

Also saw a local blogger give the ride a 3.5/5

I think he gave the queue a 5/5, the ride's first few scenes a 2/5 and the AA a 4/5

Also said the ride felt short like it needed 1 or 2 more scenes.

 

[shiekra38]

The backstage queue talk kills me. Do you want them to theme the employee break rooms too? How about the emergency exit signs? C'mon some of you, suspend your disbelief and be happy with the theming you have!

J.K. Rowling will not be happy about this

 

[Matt09]

Have to say...after watching the video I am very disappointed. I was so hyped for this ride too.

A few animatronic bats when you enter, then 2 separate screen scenes....and then one longer screen.....and then a random animatronic kong head. I really thought with how long this took to build it and the size of it that would be much better. The old Kongfrontation ride from the 90s had 3 full-sized King Kong animatronics, real fire, etc.
