      Got to go w/ my older sister (a fellow Potterhead) to Universal the same week this (and Diagon Alley) opened - initial wait times were insane (I remember once it was at 500 minutes) but close to the end of the day, we waited a little over 2 hours and were super lucky to get front row center in the first car... so much fun and went off without a hitch (even though the next day I went and did it again as a single rider and we got stuck for 3 minutes in the penultimate scene area where the launch happens)! :D Definitely wanna go back eventually and especially try out Hagrid's Motorbike!

    I went on the Transformers ride at Singapore a couple years ago, they use the screens like this. And holy crap, they took up all your vision, so when it rotated or made you feel like you were falling, it was amazing. And the ride itself was really smooth, which made it better for my dad, cause he has a bad back, so he felt great being able to go on a ride again, since he loves roller coasters but can't go on them anymore, but atleast with these ones he can a bit more.

    I got stuck on this ride right before the drop. If you ever have gone on the ride, you know you were tilted down a lot. Ended up staying tilted for a few minutes before it started up again but with the lights on. We could see the drop too which made it worse. And what made it even even more worse is that we were seated in the back where we are tilted the most.
