dream ride/attraction wish list

The cost of Flight of Fear was about $15-17 million. Theming, maybe $7 million? 10 for the coaster and research and general construction (give or take a few million).

You see, I consider Flight of Fear a near-Disney quality experience. With just a few updates (like on-board audio and such), it'd be on par with Rock 'n Rollercoaster. Good theming doesn't always entail massive amounts of detail. It really depends on the theme.

My main beef with it is that it doesn't fit in with the surrounding area but regardless, it's still a well done attraction with a clear story from the moment you enter (well, unless they've changed it since I was last there in 2004).

Technically, we do have on-board audio (the Outer Limits score--something I hold near and dear to my heart). I wouldn't necessarily call Flight of Fear a "near Disney experience". Well, at least not the 2012 form. In my most humble opinion, I think that the 2011 color pallete was wonderful (dark blues, greens, reds) as opposed to 2012 (kind of red, yellowish, blue?). It seems like 2012 was a sad attempt at getting the queue to look a bit different.

But on a side note, I'm glad that they play the score from the ride while you're exiting! (have I mentioned I love that score?)
