An insider's look at the "Monsters, Inc." ride.

This article gave a GREAT review and cool hints on hidden things inside the new "Monster's Inc." ride at California Adventure. It was great!!! I am SOOO excited to ride this ride! I will be SURE to look for all those cool things they are talking about!

Has anyone ridden it yet?

That's a review by Disney, isn't it?

Re: An insider's look at the "Monsters, Inc." ride.

OMG Pumouse, PLEASE TELL!!! What is the track system like, is it that "bouncy" magnetic feeling one like you'd find in Winnie the Pooh? How long is it? Did you take pictures? Are the effects cool? Did you see any of those hidden things that the article points out?

Sorry, I am such a geek but I am so excited to go in it in June!

I still have not ridden it! My half day trip down there a couple weeks ago ended up being DL only... Oh well, I was in DL, so that was awesome!

Re: An insider's look at the "Monsters, Inc." ride.

Well, it was really cool. Did you ever go on the Superstar Limo ride? It's in the same building and uses the same tracks. At the end all three times we went on it Ros asked my daughter if those were her real ears because she was wearing the 50th Mickey ears. She would say "hey you in the 2nt row..." My daughter loved that!

I missed it on my last trip (it opened a few weeks after we got home ). But I'm looking forward to it too! I love having new rides to look forward to!

Re: An insider's look at the "Monsters, Inc." ride.

Thanks so much for the link Daydreamer! Looks cool. I WILL admit I am a LITTLE dissapointed that they re-used the same track system from Hollywood Limo. I would have liked them to upgrade to a more advanced system like in Winnie the Pooh or the Cat in the Hat Ride in IoA. Although, the ride looks pretty cool. I am excited to go on it!!!
