I feel so weirded out by how empty all these parks are - and the country in general - BUT GAH DAMN THE DARK RIDES YOU GUYS GAVE GOTTEN TO EXPERIENCE. So elite. Bring these somewhere in the Western World PLZ
Real, ngl fire in the hole at silver dollar city is a pretty good dark ride though
Matt in the rapids is the funniest thing I’ve ever seen
Really?
i feel like the queue areas are better than some of the rollercoasters themselves
Thoroughly enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing such long free content. Visited this park three years ago and loved seeing all the rides again.
Matt cussing uncontrollably made the video for me 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Matt on this water ride made me so sad but so happy and proud I was just a mix of emotions! Team Matt
Wow, your guys' videography and quality of the content you put out has dramatically been improving, and continues to do so over the years I've been watching, great video.
One of the Best intros to a series I’ve seen… still surprises me a couple episodes later🙌🔥
Man the long form content on these vlogs is amazing love getting the notification to sit down and enjoy the park through your guys experiences!!
Every new episode is a new level of Taylor's sunburn 😂😂
LOL
Loved this video's length! Such a good time. Motiongate has great atmosphere, also looked a little more crowded (though still empty). Definitely too many dark rides, though, and the majority of them aren't executed that well, maybe with the exception of Shrek. Smurf Village looked stunning; absolute theming highlight.
We certainly weren't upset at the quantity of dark rides! It was a nice change of pace from the average park
No such thing as too many dark rides
@@CoasterStudios Fair! I guess it also makes sense considering the heat.
To me motiongate is one of those parks that I am just blown away by. everything here looks amazing, the scenery, the different variety of rides , and THOSE DARK RIDES? Seriously, those dark rides a really impressive for a non-Disney or universal park. This is definitely going on my bucket list of parks I need to visit someday.
From the moment you guys entered the Dreamworks area, I was getting major Minimoys Kingdom vibes. And then when you showed us the ride layout for the Dragon Spinner, it all made sense. I'm a firm believer that copying is okay as long as it's done at a very high level. Motiongate looks like an amazing place. Thanks for sharing your experiences.
It’s a noon surprise! The Motiongate vlog was a secret DOUBLE episode. ✌️ You filmed so much content in the past 2 months and clearly wanted to share it all with us. Thank you for the next installment of CTD: The Anthology. 27 extra minutes. And now the story isn’t yours anymore… it’s all ours. 🤍
omg
Omg indeed😊
@@CoasterStudioshad that one in the notes app since Sunday night 😅
*chef’s kiss*
Wow, that is how you do theming! I am so impressed. I can see why you needed a longer video to show it all! Very enjoyable content, as always. I'm really looking forward to your take on Warner Bros. Movie World. I've seen glimpses of it on TH-cam and it looks equally impressive.
Fun movie fact: Hotel Transylvania (1-3) was directed by Genndy Tartakovsky, creator of Samurai Jack, Dexter's Laboratory, and Primal.
Man i love your videos, the serie format is really the best
Great video! This was my favorite park of this series so far! The dark rides were excellent and the coasters were nice! Im really looking forward to the next episode!
Arthur was the first of it's kind, so, it's great that this one is better.
It shows that Mack is improving!
Here we go! Time to get snacks and get cozy.
OMG that Shrek ride!!! I freaking love Shrek. 😭💚
Love seeing Matt on a water ride
took a couple of days but i finally got the whole video watched and definitely y’all’s best vid on the channel!
Love your videos as always! The Shrek dark ride does appear to be the best, it looks amazing! I do appreciate a park that has a bunch of dark rides, but do think that some of them feel uncanny as the animatronics don’t have as much movement as other parks. The Dreamworks section does look the best. I do love the amount of theming the park has throughout the many lands.
Wow!! Awesome video, guys! I was stationed in Qatar back in 2019 and went there then. Thanks for the awesome content! Still the #1 channel for content!🎉🎉🎉
I love this park went back in September the indoor section was great Madagascar Mad Pursuit is a hidden gem that little ride is so punchy and has some sneaky good airtime. The Dark Rides are awesome here a brilliantly well presented, the one ride I missed was Dragon Gliders it was down for maintenance on my visit but I am sure to return in time.
An hour long coaster studios video?! Heck yea!
I was really impressed by the How to Train Your Dragon ride. It’s a bit like Arthur at Europa.
These parks so far all look amazing but it always beeing indoor feels kinda tiring to me. The dark ceilings and the echo from the big rooms just dont feel very nice for a long period of time.
I think Sea world was the only one that was indoor but also very bright. I totaly understand why it is that way but i still dont love it.
I understand your fatigue, and after doing so many indoor theme parks, we actually started feeling a similar way. the natural light in SeaWorld really made a big difference
Yo that Mack coaster sounds like its about to fall apart very soon lmao.
Best channel on TH-cam
Wow, we need more long videos. This is amazing
TED's Hero's Journey as shown by the Rapids attraction here:
38:46 A status quo through the group going to explore all of the attractions at this park.
38:47 Call to adventure through Sarah talking about doing their rapids attraction.
38:52 Assistance through Matt joining the group even tho he is trying to evade the tour guide.
38:58 The group enters the queue line for departure into the attraction.
39:13 Trials begin through Matt pushing back even more with him eventually caving in and doing it with the group.
39:30 The approach begins as the rapids come into view.
39:56 Crisis approaches as Matt begins to show great stress from the rapids.
40:48 Treasure/result/return/resolution as the attraction ends.
I've been to Motiongate each of my last 3 visits to Dubai, it's a really nice park to spend a day at - my personal highlight is the feeling you get on Dragon Gliders when you go out and soar above the themed town, there's just nothing like it. I think the Dreamworks building is on a different level to the rest of the park but it's really worth it to experience that alone.
That rapids ride makes me think of that Jack Silkstone moment at Walibi Belgium. If you know, you know.
bro nearly fell out
@@CoastAway Yeah. All we need now is Matt on Valhalla lol
He nearly died 😅
Great work! Loving the editing and the series as a whole ❤🎉
Wow! This park is beautiful
That hunger games coaster has me feeling a lot of ways. Part of me thinks it looks like it was built in 1996 and then someone forgot about it.
A 57 minute CS vlog?! Best vlog you've ever done! Great Job & Motiongate looks amazing!!
Straight to my bucket list. Great video as always!
There’s 2 classes of people . Rich and poor . That’s why the parks are empty , no one has money to do things like that . Most Americans aren’t gonna spend what it costs to go over there . Plus there’s more destinations that are desirable than the desert on the other side of the world.
It's that expensive to go here? Like more so than if you were visiting America for a trop like this?
I feel so weird watching this because they didn’t say a single bad thing the whole trip and I think that they are getting paid to talk about UAE it’s just very weird
@neoporsche5420 my thoughts exactly. Amazing to see what oil money and a lack of basic human rights can build.
@@SwissMaps455 I feel the same. Something just feels kinda off about these videos. I've loved watching them thus far, they're really well-produced, but they've been so overly positive about these experiences, more so than they've been, for example, for Efteling, that it rings some alarm bells for me. Motiongate looks nice, sure, and that Shrek ride was pretty well-done, but they present them as "excellent". And that's been the general sentiment for these parks so far. Comes across as a promotional tourism video.
@@SwissMaps455 we weren't paid a dime by anyone, we actually really enjoyed these parks
Lots of TVs and projectors in a massive echoey warehouse. Costco Land truly is incredible.
we have been to some indoor parks that genuinely felt that way. This was not one of them.
That opening for the aerial tour reminded me of T-2 when the message cut out to John and Sarah interrupting the message
I met you guys over here when I came with my friends from school and we said we'd subscribe n we didd !!
Looks like this is the best place to come if you love a Totally Immersive, Heavily Themed, Dark Riiiiiiiiiide Adventureeee!
Awesome video! I'm glad a park finally gave the Dreamworks IPs the care and attention they deserve! I almost celebrated Universal removing Shrek 4D haha
Also 25:55 could imagine the comiitment to a bit if that was the very last moment we see Sarah in the entire video???😅😅😅
They actually have the same ride system as that panem sim in bobbejaanland, next time you´re there give it a try! It´s right next to revolution and not many people know of it
It's nice to know that Capital Bullet Train rides better than it sounds. 😂
Honestly, the park does look fantastic.
Just come across your videos and they are great! Hope to enjoy these rides in UAE myself one day, keep them coming 😊
Coaster enthusiasts in the making on the Smurfs coaster
I can't believe I watched the whole thing!
No Emma Stone in Now You See Me hahah but great vlog as usual!
I figured out I accidentally used my dads card but he was chill about it and supported the cause after seeing a few of y’all’s videos
thank you!
I will never in my life be able to afford to go here but looked fun.
watched the whole thing! Loved every second
At 26:20 the kids just doing pushups lmao
This is the park I’m most excited for (To watch)!
Awsome vlog, nice with a longer one:)
Man what a video. Sadly I visited around 2 weeks after you guys and several big notable rides were closed on my vsiit. John Wick, Dragon Gliders, and the Kung Fu Panda ride were all closed during my visit. Plus I happened to go at the same time as around 1000 rowdy school kids and teens constantly cutting in line and vandalising the theming, it was especially bad on Capitol Bullet train! Honestly makes me sad for the workers having to deal with that crap.
John Wicks queue looks phenomenal and so does the entirety of Dragon Gliders. Especially bummed that I didnt get the chance to go on either. (Especially given Im from Europe and have never ridden a 4D Free spin before)
The stuff here is impressive but I feel like it really lacks some standout rides, some E ticket attractions. Like Dragon Gliders looks like the closest to an E-ticket for the Dreamworks area but of course I didnt get a chance to ride that. And Shrek looks great but kinda feels like a supporting ride. But besides that it really needs one or 2 big coasters to really have a landmark attraction. The GCI over in Real Madrid world looks like it could be one but thats at an entirely different park and ngl that just seemed like a bad idea at this point in time, especially given the high entry prices and relatively low attendance.
Like they should really invest into some sort of showstopper... honestly they could probably have a big coaster wrapping around the studio like Hollywood Dream, Starfall Racers, or Rip Ride Rocket at the Universal parks and call it Showstopper.
Also like IDK if its just me but some bits of the park and its theming did feel kinda cheap ngl. Like low quality presentation. Maybe its just me being used to higher quality stuff at the likes of Tivoli Gardens but it did often take me out of it. Like not everything was as well thought out as back in Europe or some US parks.
I CLICKED SO FAST OH MY GOSH!!
Motiongate is like the cedar point of dark rides lol! If you took their weakest one it would be the standout dark ride at any other park!
I was with a group of people on my trip had a QnA at one point and they hinted that the Mack Hyper meant for Real Madrid could potentially go there instead would make sense as both parks are owned by the same company Parques Reunidos
There is track for a MACK Hyper coaster sitting in storage next to Real Madrid World
Ooooh! Now that would be a good addition. Motiongate is good but it desperately needs a standout attraction, and a Hyper coaster could be a good one and help justify the price tag to enter
The sad thing is is that i was there with my fam in the uae but i never got a chance to go to motiongate or img but i did go to wb world abu dhabi, ferrari world and aquaventure
Hey Taylor, what were the differences between the two sides of Shrek's Journey, and how does it correlate with the Shrek plotline?
It’s funny how the roller coaster at how to train your dragon in epic is also named something with gliders
Really makes you think how there's not one but two Woody Harrelson / Jesse Eisenberg thriller comedies with only two entries in the series represented at this park.
As many others I would have liked that you at least talked about what considerations you had visiting these places. Not mentioning it at all just doesnt feel right. The same goes for the zoos you visit that have large marine animals. They suffer immensely.
Im not a saint at all but the idea of having fun at places where animals og people suffer in order for us to have fun there is just not right. We cannot just close our eyes and pretend these things dont exist
water rides are the best
I can’t believe a green hornet ride exists
I love The Hunger Games and it's cool that there's a themed mini land out there. But I've never really understood that coaster. It's the absolute wrong type of ride to theme to a bullet train. Like, it should be something more drawn out and themed, not a compact swing launch coaster with a vertical loop. I think it should be something more like Gotham City Escape or the Studio Tour coaster at Movie Park Germany.
The coasters rarely make sense with the IP. It’s like they just plopped something random down at the end of the queue.
Hey. How much do you want to bet that baby shrek will be offered to Rufus as a sacrifice someday?
🤣!!!
@@CoasterStudios you know, it’s nice how Rufus lets his pet humans guest star on his channel once in a while. Such a good boy
Great vlog guys however if you get special treatment from a park ie filming on rides when it’s not allowed then can you please mention it as Motiongate are super strict with on ride filming and the way you portray it in your vlogs seems like anyone can film on rides !! Also if you have been given free tickets to a park you should also allow mention this
28:18 - How could this coaster require so many supports?? It's only a single-car and there's another huge support every 6 feet or so. This seems like an enormous waste of steel and money...
Is Matt’s shirt Upside Down Universal? If that really exists I need one.
The Sidemen hide and seek video was here
hello , PLEASE i need the mad pursuit full pov , i need it so super bad pleaseee
I was born and raised here and I’m gonna turn 23 in 5 days I’ve literally not been to more than half the places you guys have gone to
I’m thinking of going to img or motiongate or sea world or Ferrari world on 29th April for my bday heard the fastest ride on Ferrari world isn’t open so I guess I should go to the others right any recommendations
I rode 205 roller coasters in USA
I've seen other vlogs of Motiongate, but this one is the best. Well done! If I wanted to do this park, SeaWorld and Warner Bros, how many days would I need to get it all in?
You should be able to do one day at each. We would’ve enjoyed more time at each of them, but they are also very expensive, so I think realistically for the price you’re paying, one day at each is fine.
@@CoasterStudios Thanks.
Was matt paid to actually go on a water ride? Hands down best part of the ride
Is motion gate or IMG better?
The third wheel legit was going to melt if water touched him on the rapids ride
I need Matt and Charolette from TPW to ride a rapids together
i love how the video was uploaded 6 mins ago and the video length is 56:59
people will still comment about the video xd
Emma Stone isn't in Now you See Me. 🤔
Are you sure you've seen it Taylor? 😋
She wasn't? Who the heck was I thinking of then LOL!
@@CoasterStudiosisla fisher. She is who you were thinking of.
Thank you for calling out - if you will - Arthur at Europa Park. As someone who grew up nearby, the ride technology is fantastic, arguably rivaling that of Forbidden Journey if not, potentially, surpassing it. But IP-wise and narratively, that ride is a complete failure - always has been. No one in Germany cares for the Arthur IP, it was a strictly economical decision trying to expand the park's pull area towards France. And then they dropped the ball, hard. Insane potential, all wasted.
Why don't they have more people at the park. Is it in an area with very little population. I mean it looks first rate.
Dubai has a very high population. Personally I think the high ticket entry price is driving people away.
@@CoasterStudios Oh. Hopefully they will realize that.
Its a great park. For some reason they don’t market it. So few have heard of motionsgate
Another hunger games fan. Good taste. Me too. Which book is your favorite?
Book? The first one. Movie? Catching Fire.
@@CoasterStudiosAh. A gentlemen.
You got a favorite character?
Dubai are trying to make itself into a holiday destination. But , when the oil runs out , this park will close . Is this park state built and run ?
Dubai is trying to make itself a tourist destination so they have more they rely on than just oil. The goal is that places like Motiongate draw in people from all over.
Dubai ran out of oil ages ago. All of its money now comes from financial services, tourism, manufacturing, aviation etc. Less than 1% of its economy is to do with oil.
@@CoasterStudios Yes, I understand this . But they have to compete with the likes of Disney. In England , if you asked kids , hey where you wanna go to ? Disneyland in Florida or Motiongate in Dubai ? Personally, I would send them to Blackpool Pleasure Beach 😈😂 Btw great Vlogs
@coasterstudios Having a friends friend who work(ed) at maurer and after riding the spinner at motion gate, he revealed to me that it has in fact got dampener on the ride so as to improve ridability...... In my eyes it decreased it!
oh wow, so it doesn't spin as crazy as others. Thats interesting.
Is it usually that empty there??
the Dubai parks are famously quiet. That being said, the longest line we saw at one point was 45 minutes for Now You See Me High Roller
@@CoasterStudiosthat’s insane….. we average that at parks in America every day 😂
John Wick is the best ride, sad y’all missed it! You should come back for that.
its okay, we've experienced exact replicas of it all across the world, so we know what they feel like! We were just happy to see the queue.
Is Matt litterally scared of water?
hello , i need the Madagascar - MAD PURSUIT! video pov , because I'm trying to remake music used there so if u publish the pov that will help me to get more references for music making , please anwser as soon as possible i really need the pov video (dont add any music to it just put the video audio as how it is)
Where is the former Bollywood Parks Dubai located in relation to Motiongate? It would be so cool if Motiongate could double its footprint by acquiring Bollywood Park and expanding onto that property.
its on the other side of Riverland- not close enough where the two parks could merge into one though
"baby shrek is a loose article"
nice
I'm starting to think John Wick is SBNO? I went in Oct 2022 and it was closed. I saw someone's vlog in summer 2023 and it was closed. Motiongate's social media account hasn't posted anything about John Wick since early 2022 (and they post about every ride fairly frequently).
it's definitely not we saw it run while we were there! just wasn't open to ride
It was open in april. It was operational and i went on it.
They should have made a maze runner roller coaster
WOAH
Dang that's one long video.
The ideal park for Matt has no waterpark and no gerslaur
