 Review of Storm Force Acceletron @ Islands of Adventure

A well themed flat ride with some great lateral g-forces and short lines. Yet, I think Islands of Adventure couldve come up with something a little more unique.

Didnt it look just a little out of place at IOA? I thought so.

I thought so too. I rode it first thing in the morning (right after Hulk) and there was no line. Its well themed and everything, but IOA needs to stick with what theyre good at--thrill rides.

Yeah, i mean, i had been there before it was built, and then when i saw it up, i just thought "what the heck is that little thing?" it just didnt look right. especially so close to the hulk.

I agree, it looks funny with Hulk towering over the midway, and then Storm Force just sitting there. They shouldve made it indoors, and part of the actual Superhero Island midway...you know, like in one of those huge buildings. It could have been in pitch black darkness, with some cool strobe light effects.

yeah, see, now that would have been a cool ride. they could have used giant fans to blow air around, and added rain or whatever else they wanted to do, but with it outdoors, it looks like a carnival ride.

Exactly my point DemonRules! Usually, its Disney that opens up horrible, lousy themed midway rides. Not that Storm Force is horrible, but I dont want IOA to go in that direction. (Disney has recently opened Aladdin, which is an updated form of Dumbo, and Triceretops Spin, another updated form of Dumbo)

Yea....even with no line I dont want to ride it. Totally weak! They should have never put it in the park, period.

agreed, its a waste of space, and if they really wanted to put a midway ride in that spot, at least put in a good one, a new one, a new idea or something, not just another tea-cup ride.
