    New Kong Ride at Universal

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGeTHueErfE

    Video doesn't give you an idea of how good it is, I think you have to be there.

    It'll be hard to top the original Kong ride at Florida.

    Very interesting 3D concept. There's still something so cool though about the old ride where the actually Kong is physically there in scale. That was such a surreal moment. This seems more like a motion ride. Neat idea though. Thanks for posting!

      Oh man, that looks so cool, I'd so go on this ride given the chance

        I never saw the old Kong ride so I definitely want to see this one.

                Great video Mazinz! That old ride was great because Kong was so fun to look at (in scale) and the tram ride gave it an added feeling of reality. Your imagination took care of the rest.

                  What was also fun about the Kong ride was watching episodes of Swamp Thing, Superboy or Superforce and seeing it used as a set.
