Rockin' Rollercoaster VS. Revenge of the Mummy

alyx92 · 05-07-2009, 07:30 PM

Hey guys,

Has anyone here been on both Revenge of the Mummy at Universal Orlando and Rockin' Rollercoaster at DHS? If so, can you please give me a comparison for the two rides? I've been on RotM but never on RnR.

Thanks alot!!!!

ive never been on either, but I've been to RotM at USH. not sure if they're clones of each other, but compared to other coasters I've been on, it was pretty boring. never been on RRC, but I think it looks fun

alyx92 · 05-09-2009, 06:28 PM

i think they are clones...thnx for your input

They're not clones, the one in Orlando is longer.

The Mummy is much cooler. I've been on both and RRC is shorter with inversions and blacklight effects. The Mummy has stops, goes backwards and has some cutscenes it has no inversions but it does have fire and water effects.

alyx92 · 05-10-2009, 05:54 PM

Which do you think is more thrilling or scary as a coaster, not for visual effects?

Disneyland_DHI · 05-10-2009, 08:07 PM

RRC seems more thrilling to me. INVERSIONS! The Mummy didn't really have as steep drops as what I've seen of RRC on Youtube. Ever since my first ride on CA Screamin', inversions became one of the things I look for in a thrilling roller coaster (in light because Space Mountain is thrilling only in dark because you don't see the track)

alyx92 · 05-10-2009, 08:33 PM

Cool. Mis sister doesn't really like roller coasters in general but she has been on the mummy and liked it. Do you think she'd like RnR?

kairamoon · 05-10-2009, 11:38 PM

I think RRC is more thrilling because of the inversions but I don't really like it because it's short and also makes me sick. If your sister liked ROTM she might like RRC but the only two similarities really are the fact that they're in the dark. To me RRC is more like Screamin so if she likes that then she'll probably like RRC but either way just convince her to go on it once and she'll know for sure and if she doesn't like it then at least she can say she rode it.

Thanks kairamoon!

I have been on the Mummy here in Cali and have been fortunate enough to go on RRC. My favorite by far is RRC. It just seems more thrilling and exciting. I will give Universal that the mummy may be better when it comes to quantity of "unique" features...but RRC has the better overall quality. Who cares if its short? Its the enjoyment that people get out of it that counts....

(Plus Aerosmith is my favorite band....ROCK ON!)

FREEMAN1722 · 05-14-2009, 09:07 PM

i really like the mummy but it would be better if it was longer or if you went through twice

disneyguy · 06-10-2009, 12:27 AM

Rockin' Roller Coaster staring Hannah Montana... I mean Aerosmith.

pballa91 · 08-16-2009, 08:24 PM

i think rockin roller coaster is better. the mummy reminded me of indiana jones in disneyland. the speed of it was quicker than indy but just the effects seemed like they were in indy

alyx92 · 08-16-2009, 10:59 PM

thanks guys...were going to universal tommorow so i'll get to ride it again!
