I agree that the Crypt is certainly lacking. I never rode it when it was "Tomb Raider" but I hear the effects were much better. Seems all the theming is while you're waiting in line, then once you actually get INTO the ride...its like you're just sitting in a big warehouse. Whaaat? I rode it for the first time yesterday,and the friend I went with said that when it was Tomb Raider, there were a lot more special effects, like artificial fog and water would spray at you. No more I guess. Now you just spin around in a garage. Nice. Boring.

Wouldn't you have to rode both before comparing?

Personally, compared to Top Spins I've ridden elsewhere (namely state fairs), this the ride program is very weak and not at all worth the wait. I personally like the theming in the que and don't care if it is in the main ride or not. I personally prefer to be flipped than look at theming.

Again personally, I think I would prefer the building to be removed and you could watch the world go by, or I wish the building was at least kept completely dark for most of the ride. (I know there are problems with them removing the building, I am just saying that I think it would be the actual ride experence better)

I loved tomb Raiders theming, and was scared of the ride program(I was 11) But the Crypts theming is disturbing, The Bat thing is getting old(metaphorically) and the fact that there is no central theme ****es me off. I still think if you left the theming, change the pre-show, audio during the ride, it would be pretty generic, that’s just me though
