Is it still "Space Shuttle America" or is it a different movie?

Unfotunately it is. I think its really stupid. I also think that Dino Islan 3D was stupid too. I want them to either put in a good movie or tear down the 3D cinema and the space shuttle.

Yeah, definately. Dino Island was really cool... It was awesome how the bugs and stuff sort of flew up to your face. It was way better than the crappy Space Shuttle America.

Space Shuttle is a huge waste of time. Does anyone remeber seeing all those saps in 93 and 94 waiting in huge lines when the ride first opened? It makes me laugh to think people waited an hour for that ride.

lol I can remember when I was 5 years old we went to GAm and we waited around 1 1/2 hours to almost 2 hours. That was a pretty advanced ride back then.

I remeber those good old days looking at people anticaipating a "great 3D adventure" then if you see people come off you see the disgusted look on thier faces relizing that they had wasted an hour of their life.

Doh, I knew I was a sap the minute the movie ended!Dino Island 2 3d wasn't that bad, the space shuttle america movie just blows lol. I didn't like the superstition movie they played at Fright Fest either, it needs to be 3d to be half way decent in my opinion lol.

Yeah same here. I usually don't get to ride everything more than once, but it's usually my more favorite rides I ride more than once in a day, such as Raging Bull, SUF, BTR, and Deja Vu.

hmm.. i never thought of it that way, haha! maybe i'll try that next time instead of spending an extra 3 dollars on a freakin lemonade!! hahabut we got it pretty much down to a science when it comes on gettin on rides quick, we always run to v2, batman, raging bull, iron wolf, and probably deja vu (if it was open!) first then to the ones that have no lines like demon, giant drop, viper, eagle, etc... by 11 we were on and off of v2, raging bull, demon, giant drop, batman, and viper. we had half of them down in the 1st hour. we pretty much walked right on the rides. it was nice.. then we took it easy and finished off the rest and got in line for superman about 1 and after that we had pretty much ridden everything except the eagle because none of the ppl i was with wanted to go :( oh well, so we just went on everything again and maybe a 3rd time. :)

Thats the only purpose it serves. I sometimes go there to cool of, but I perfer the Pictorium which is longer and usually more entertaining.
