What I wouldn’t give to ride the Wayne’s World roller coaster.
Theme parks must always turn over their old attractions to create new thrills that will draw in customers. So movie-based rides are usually inspired by whatever is hot at the time . A rare and kind of hilarious exception is the submarine ride based on Disney’s , which first left port at the Magic Kingdom in the fall of 1971, more than 15 years after the Kirk Douglas movie debuted.
Guests boarded trams that were supposedly evacuating New Yorkers in the midst of a King Kong attack. If it sounds like a questionable way to escape a giant gorilla, it was! Kong attacked the tram a few times, seemingly grabbing and shaking the entire car. The kongfrontations permanently ceased in 2002 and were replaced by a rollercoaster.
