    Default GoG: Mission Breakout

    I finally rode this yesterday. I only waited 25 min (at 4pm on a Saturday in summer...YAY for that!)

    I'm going to go on record and say I was not impressed. Not a worthy ToT replacement at all. It was disjointed, cheesy, and insanely LOUD. The storyline was weak and not explained well. The music during the ride was SO loud and coupled with the screaming from guests (to be expected), it was impossible to make out what was being said. The cut scenes between drop sequences just made me feel like I was at Best Buy watching clips on a giant, cheap LED TV with a too fast frame rate (had that weird, unnatural movement). It felt like an obvious screen, unlike some screens that give the impression that you are watching something happen in front of you (like Soarin).

    The drops were more frequent and more yo-yo like. It was fun, but they could have simply changed ToT to that sequence and left the themeing as is.

    Did I mention how loud it was? Because it was. LOUD. Like, front row of a concert loud. My ears were ringing at the end.

    I also found the song bizarre. I got Born to be Wild. Um...okay...

    All in all, this does NOT make me change my mind about shoehorning GoG into WDW at Epcot. I continue to hope that is a bad rumor.

    I wanted to like this ride because I love ToT. Sadly, I honestly have no desire to ride this one again.

    Sorry to hear that you were so disappointed. If I decide to try it some day maybe I will bring earplugs.

    The Twilight Zone ToT was such a simple story to follow just by going through the queue. Do you think being or not being familiar with the storyline of Guardians makes a difference in how the ride is experienced?

    I am familiar with the movie. I didn't love it, but that is besides the point. I knew the jist of the story from reading articles and blogs, etc when the ride debuted. However, had I NOT had that background info, what was presented was not a very cohesive story. The filmed scenes added absolutely nothing to further the story. You have to listen to Rocket and it is hard to understand what he is saying much of the time. Maybe It should have paid more attention to the screen in the lobby area? I don't know.
