Rock n' Roller CoasterRoller coasterMinimum height to ride: 48 inches DescriptionAn indoor coaster featuring on-board music from rock n' roll supergroup Aerosmith. You venture into the G-Force Records building, only to meet Aerosmith in a practice session! Their agent tells them they have to leave for a concert across town, but the band feels bad for just leaving all of you there. Their agent summons a "Super-Stretch Limo" to take you there. You then leave to an alley behind the studio, where your super-stretch simo turns the comes, ready to take you to your destination. The coaster then blasts off, from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 3 seconds, putting up to 5 G's on the riders. It has a fast take-off, loud rocking music, and 3 loops! It's a wild ride to the concert, where a red carpet greets you. -- Last edited by Molly R [Update this description | Read previous versions] PhotosSafety
Readers' Opinions
Great coaster. Music, fast, themeing. A real col factor. - Gil Long This is my favorite attraction throughout all of Walt Disney World. I myself happen to be a big fan of Aerosmith, so knowing that they're apart of this attraction already is a plus. Even when having to wait in the queue line(for sometimes an hour or more), its nice to be able to get pumped up for the ride by hearing Aerosmith's music play on all the speakers in the queue line area. The first part to this attraction where you're in a room looking at Aerosmith practicing and then leaving in their limo is awesome because it draws you in...and gets you even more pumped up for whats to come. Waiting your last few minutes in the loading area is cool because you get to see other trains get blasted into darkness before you, so that again gets your adrenaline pumping even higher with anticipation. The launch is outstanding. My favorite kind of roller coaster has become those that launch you from the start, rather than being pulled up a chain lift hill. Throughout the ride you are doing loops, twists, turns, drops....all at fast speeds and all the while having Aerosmith's music blasted into your ears from speakes built into each seat. When the ride is over, I leave wanting to ride again and again. Absolutely love this attraction. The only thing I think should change, is the posters on the wall when you first enter the building. There is a poster of Queen, which is a great rock n' roll band, but then there is a poster of Hilary Duff, Hannah Montana and Raven. Those posters need to go. If the attraction is called "Rock N' Roller Coaster", then the posters in that room should be of rock n' roll bands, not bubble-gum pop artists. Disney should put a poster of Aerosmith, Def Leppard, Metallica, Bon Jovi, etc. up there and take down those pop girl posters because they are not rock n' roll. Other than that, the ride is a world class attraction. - Justin Kermgard Went on when I was 8 and now its become...part of me - Dan Rosenberg Not intense but the sensation of the launch is simply amazing. The props inside really give a good job presenting story to the attraction. To skip the line in the morning, try to get FASTPASS for Tower of Terror first and then go directly to the standby-line of Rock n' Roller Coaster. - Adriel Tjokrosaputro Gives disney some chance against universal - max mooney Far and away Disney's most exciting roller coaster, it ranks with Expedition Everest as my favorite attraction at WDW. - Kelly Smith To me it is the best coaster that Disney has in Orlando. The theming is great, the images of the band great (I looked twice the first time). The launch,loop, layout of track and the music. A perfect combination. The only trouble with this ride, it is a short ride. - Erik Cobbs This is one cool rollercoaster. Even queuing wasn't the usual chore, due to listening to great music whilst you wait (as long as you like Aerosmith!) The 'launch' at the start really gets you and I even managed to get one of the boys (Robbie) to go on it. This and tower of terror make this park a 'must see' - neil Jackson No trip to Disney Hollywood Studios is complete without a ride on the Rock n' Roller Coaster. Combining a thrilling launch with a well-synced Aerosmith track, this coaster is a pure adrenaline rush, from a California recording studio to the anticipated Aerosmith concert. This attraction receives a Good review. Although it's not-to-be-missed, the coaster design loses much momentum after the initial launch, and the "themeing" is often tacky and uninspiring, for Disney (sort of like Hollywood). Also, the queue is rather hot and bland, and the Aerosmith intro is very cheesy. Still, it's worth at least a couple of visits, if only for the launch (and to see Steven Tyler flash the shocker). - Joshua Counsil Fun ride, very fast loved the dark ride!! - Amanda W What this attraction lacks in length, it makes up for in theme. From the excellent queuing area and the always fun pre-show, to the amazing ride itself, this coaster simply rocks! The initial launch is as exhilarating an experience as any I have ever had at a theme park, and the dark ride that follows should please even the most jaded coaster critics. This attraction is pure Disney magic. Outstanding! - James Rao Very well done! I wish the ride was a little longer, but im a thrill seeker. This is a great ride. - Michael Newsom Disney needed a ride like this. It's tame enough to still be a family ride, but the loops and the launch make it enjoyable for thrill seekers. - colleen f |
