In my heart, Fast and Furious will always be a World Class Attraction ♥
That means you have the heart of a family man.. because it's all about family.
Oh hey it’s you! I watch your content from time to time! Keep up the great work!
U can love the ride AND know it's not world class. Enjoyed the ep
Liar 😆
I wrote a Google review saying "This is the bestest ride I have ever to rode. It's incredible to finally find a family. I was an orphan with no friends so it really is a good feeling to finally have a home. Can't wait til we all go to Olive Garden together."
And I gave it 5 fuckin' stars.
Poseidon being a skeleton each time kills me 😂😂😂
F&F supercharged is definitely one of the rides of all time: The ride vehicle is runs, the actors act, sound system is working and the director filmed some stuff.
hella adults signed off on it
The redeeming quality about Fast & Furious: Supercharged in Orlando was watching my little bro with Downs Syndrome experience it - Fast & Furious is one of his favorite franchises and the Rock is his idol - watching him be so totally immersed and thrilled, was an absolute treat 🤩
Otherwise... yeah not a great ride 🤣
I was really hoping this was going to just be an intro and then 1 hour and 45 minutes of a black screen that said "No" on it 😅
The 'helicopter' IS a drone. Right before Shaw 'dies', which he doesn't die, he yells "Call in the drones!" And that's exactly what happens.
Almost two hours of Poseidon tearing into supercharged?? Sign me up!
Edit: I loved the troll energy even more, can't wait for the next one!
Okay so googled Cookie Puss, it’s an ice cream cake face made by Carvel Ice Cream in the 1970s and honestly it’s pretty horrifying looking and makes the Rocks line all the better.
OMG 😂 I’ll have to show my son that cake.
Cookie Puss is the name of a famous cake, lol. It's actually a totally clean insult.
Think Fudgy the Whale, same company.
It's also a reeeeally old Beastie Boys song
@@johnmarion4129 Yeah, but that song is referencing the same cake 😂
I am curious why he thought it was a bad insult lol. Does he think its some old time slur or something
@@Sour_Ink I think he put it on the same level as calling someone a "pussy" which I don't think they ever would have put in this ride to begin with
fast and furious and kong weren't the only attractions that were originally studio tour attractions, the whole original park was basically extended versions of studio tour attractions. they've been doing that for decades.
Yep, Jaws, Kong, and Earthquake were all attractions based on the tram tour. Now Fast and furious and new the Kong are. It's sad because the original rides were infinitely better.
Day 13 of asking for Mater’s Junkyard Jamboree
It simply must be a world-class attraction if not only for the fact that one of the ride vehicles rolled over my foot when I was 9 and it still operates to this day.
@@brennaw.3345oh no! Is your foot ok??
I remember taking my gf to universal studios for her first time, and after we watched the Fast and Furious Supercharge, her expression was complete silence, confusion and she says "wtf just happened?" LMAO I laughed so hard and its a core memory of mine
Me and my family took one of our cousins, who didnt know anything about theme parks, to Universal a few years ago. The whole trip we were talking up Fast & Furious because we knew how terrible it was and we were looking forward to how dumb it would be. Our cousin took it at face value and was *so confused* the whole time.
I'd rather ride this again in Orlando rather than the Jimmy Fallon thing.
Truly The Room of theme park attractions.
the alton towers hat makes its debut
I’d love to see you guys talk about a defunct attraction sometime, and how/if the world class test would apply! Love this podcast!!
oh hi stella!
@@nicholasluter5197 NO WAY
Drinkin at work? Thats a FAMILY
Went on this ride about 3 weeks ago. For that awkward FBI agent stand-off scene, my view of the characters was 100% obstructed by one of the pillars of the ride vehicle. My friend and I stared at each other the whole time in annoyed, stunned silence...and the first thing my friend said as we walked off-ride was "I need to show you a funny video later." That video ended up being Jenny Nicholson's iconic Galactic Starcruiser video, which then led the algorithm to recommend me FYA's ET Adventure episode......Thank you, Fast and Furious: Supercharged. You being the worst ride I've ever been on in my life inadvertently introduced me to my new fav podcast, and now I get to watch them roast you. Life is beautiful.
6:38 I assume they mean “that’s it?” as in being disappointed by the lack of substance rather than disappointed by the short duration
The localization is super cheap. It is still Los Angeles. They just replaced the US Bank Tower with the Salesforce Tower. I think they also changed a couple of freeway signs. And then called it a day.
I want there to be an episode where Ryan has his bachelor party on and they talk about their whole experience during that trip
Damnit. An hour in and I still have “Gasolina” stuck in my head. I haven’t even been on the ride and it claimed another victim.
I may have said it before on this channel, but my favorite part about the Extreme Close-Up part was our tour guide said nothing until the show ended. He immediately said “German cars, Asian setting, and Latino music… moving on!”
I do like seeing people’s reactions from how absurd the ride is especially the helicopter part with Dom. First time riders have hilarious facial expressions during and after the show.
I miss Disaster, it was one of my fav attractions there. Really sad it got replaced by this.
And I dunno how well this podcast is doing but you talk a lot about keeping the show going. I would totally donate to a Patreon for it, and I’m sure others would too. It’s an incredible show.
I just wanna say you guys always do such a great job describing attractions! I haven't been to Disney/Universal for 12 years but thanks to videos and your descriptions I can easily understand the ride without having been on it. You guys also make me excited to go to theme parks again because I feel like I'll have a deeper appreciation and be doing the World Class Test in my head. Thanks so much, and I hope you cover a Six Flags attraction soon! That's the only theme park near me haha
“Cookiepuss” is another generational gap term. It’s the name of the ice cream cake character from Carvel (kids in the 80s got these for their birthdays). You could pick Fudgie the Whale or Cookiepuss.
Saw the title and the guest and just nodded my head slowly while whispering “yesssss” like a crazed villain watching chaos unfold.
They have to start offering a version of studio lot tour where you can take a tram that doesn’t go to any of the 3D screen rooms. One that is literally just a tour with facts
Offhand Disney is linked in the description.
ik its not the most popular but you are my personal fav for your amusement :)
I always get a chuckle from the thumbnails 😂🧡
love this pod!!! i do think the detrackulation test should be switched to something more along the lines of : does it have good pacing, bc even bad rides can be long, but good rides can be short, but if the pacing is good, then all is well!
Poseiden is a real one for this. Great episode and proof that the test is a great and entertaining model for this podcast and a great gage for what we desire in our theme park atrractions.
As a fan of the movie series and gearhead the wait in line was really cool seeing all the movie props and cars, that was actually my favorite part, the actual ride was a fever dream 🤣 I never thought id see physics thrown out the window more than the movies but the ride did it 😂
Just so incredibly poetic that this attraction, which is a creative disaster, replaced an attraction that was called DISASTER. Some funny foreshadowing there. Great show guys!
51:58 The GT-R steam that came out is reference to 2F2F where Brian's Silver Skyline has car steam came out in all four wheels.
Poseidon is hilarious for this
We just went on fast and furious last weekend during the Orlando Informer meetup (you guys should check it out if you haven’t already). The actors in the queue are the best part for me. When Mia said she doesn’t know why people keep racing Dom the actor was just like “student loans” 😂 I LOVE the ad lib and each time is different. The ride is so bad that it’s hilarious. My nephew (10) has some entertaining commentary when we rode with him 😂
Literally had more fun making jokes while on this ride, then riding it at all. Done both and both suck.
Ooooh baby I've been waiting for this one👏🏻👏🏻
I love this podcast, I hope one day y'all do a food episode about the worldclass eats at Disneyland/Disneyworld because I don't go there very often, and I never know which snacks to get.
It's TOO MANY SPIRITS: Theme Parks Edition 😂
20:27 “You’re playing with the casino’s chips” goes so hard
I'm going to watch the whole episode but I know the outcome before I clicked
I've had the pleasure of getting a party bus to just myself in the back row in the morning. Due to the lack of weight in the vehicle, the back row absolutely yeets you up and down quite painfully as anyone might know with a pair of balls 😅😂 Great way to start the day 😃
I once didn’t get on the Studio Tour because I didn’t want to sit through Supercharged. I’ve come to like it now as a meme and my friends and I always laugh through the whole thing.
So the party scene parts were new tech, and they refined it for the Borne Stuntacular, so I would say it is innovative in that respect 🤔
1:30:53 the signature moment is the queue
OMG I love this podcast. You guys are awesome, but you forgot one of the best lines from this. "I"VE GOT THE BULL BY THE HORNS!" Ryan, is Knotts Scary Farm better than Horror nights? What are your thoughts?
They can fit a decent sized dark ride coaster in the current show building in Orlando. Imagine one of the Kuka arms swinging a helicopter with Vin Diesel hanging on, kinda like Expedition Everest. Some improvements to the queue making the garage interactive and an update to the preshow videos and story could make it perfect. Something like some new turbo technology mixed with the current story.
Am I the only one who got the Cookie Puss reference? (It was the name of a Carvel ice cream cake when I was a kid). First time I’ve had to question if I’m too old to be watching Watcher 😅
The TM's at the Florida pre-show can be great and set this up sort of like Jungle Cruise style humor in the "we know this isn't serious, just have fun with it" way. I also love the queue stuff which is sort of like the Jimmy Fallon ride....the queue is better than the ride
I’m going to Universal Orlando this upcoming August for the first time ever in my life and I’ve discovered that Fast and the Furious Supercharged will close just before I get there. I’m devastated! What… now I gotta do extra rides on Mummy to make up for it???
In my humblest opinion. The only way for this ride to be well themed and fit better is if it was an indoor coaster. It can even be as mild as space mountain because I can’t tolerate rides more intense than the mummy.
i wouldnt watch this if it werent for byron. love you man. you remind me of a chill uncle or older cousin
Recent trip to universal, first time riding this. First ride after lunch where we had a few drinks and a shot of rumple each. In my drunken stupor, I’m wondering if this ride was made for us and we were for sure feeling ready to “party”. After riding, my buzz was gone and I was confused as to wtf just happened. Hated it 😂
Poseidon bashing F&F for almost 2 hours....YES
The way I got WELL into this episode before I realized you were talking about the worst part of the tram ride and not some separate thing that I just never got around to riding! The tram would be perfect if they just got rid of this and King Kong or whatever that other 3-D thing is.
A new episode, we’ve been blessed
This is gonna be brutal and I haven’t even started the video yet😭😭
During my first experience on this it broke down in the transition from the party scene to the chase scene so we had to sit through that preshow twice! No explanation, it just turned black and they drove us back in the building again. There were some groans when we all figured out that they were showing us the party scene again
Hahaha finally yes! And Poseidon is here too. A nearly 2 hour roast session of Supercharged. Incredible!
I would argue three tram rides made it to Orlando. Earthquake was just the Hollywood version with the extra preshows. You even boarded a tram to go into the subway. Jaws and original Kong were from the tram ride also but they were uniquely difference from their California counterparts.
Bro i remember going on the hollywood version, it was my first time at the park and i didnt know it was apart of the tram tour. No joke it brokedown right after the preshow part. I didn't ride it at all lol and the tram had to back out of the frickin warehouse. We were stuck in there for quite a while too. I was not impressed lol. It was a very confusing experience for me and my family 😂
Was the Star Wars Hotel a World Class Attraction???...You know who to get 😊😊
I've been to Universal Studios exactly once, rode the tram tour with F&F the once. We loved the tram tour, of course. I didn't hate F&F. My wife didn't hate it. I'm glad we have you all to make up the hate. Note: Didn't hate it is as good as it'll get from me. I'm not a crazy person.
"Can this ride hold its own without it's signature moment? Is it a one trick pony?""
If a ride lacks a signature moment, it is equally entertaining throughout and passes the test. The question doesn't ask if it a good ride, it's purely about whether the ride depends on one moment.
If this ride is a one trick pony, so is Pirates of the Caribbean.
I would not mind you guys doing a deeper dive in Jaws the ride
I would say the signature moment is the queue, and without it.... boy is it a bummer
I can’t believe that none of you mentioned the beetle juice funko pop! It’s in the area where there’s a bunch of tools when you go through a cage like spot. If you look up, you’ll see beetle juice.
FINALLY!
Wow, I did not expect that to get world class. This ride really is deeper than i thought. You guys have given me a newfound appreciation for this ride and new outlook on Vin Diesel's acting abilities.
If sponsors aren’t enough to keep this alive, can you guys just start a patreon? I haven’t given to a channel’s patreon before but I love what you guys do so much, AND I’m a recent fan, I haven’t even been around here much and I’m already sold, so please guys, please
Never rode this ride, probably never will- I'm so excited!
It's worth it just to see how bad a company like universal can mess up a ride. The Que in Orlando also has some dope cars, so worth it if you have time to kill.
@@sdc5914 I live on the other side of the world and it's too expensive to travel to USA, unfortunately!
So apparently cookie Puss is the name of an ice cream cake character from the 70s WTF
Listen. It is so much not a World Class Attraction that I drunkenly complained about how disappointed I was to some random cornered Australian woman in our hotel pool for about 15 minutes. My fiancé had to practically carry me away. I feel strongly. But I do love the movies.
Just saying, the hollywood version should have passed test #2 since the studio tour passed it and it's a major part of the studio tour!
Ryan a light weight 😂
The Simpsons test could be changed to whether it will be replaced in the next decade
I'm now going to start hoping for Batman the Ride to be covered
just for how that is going to fare (since it is basically if you rode one, you rode them all)
Comment for the algorithm! Love the pod ❤
On top of the ride being terrible, it replaced Disaster! Which was one of my family’s favorite rides at Universal Orlando. It was a perfect chill ride after spending a couple hours sweating in Harry Potter world. I was looking so forward to it when we went back last year only to find it replaced by…this
Best part of this ride is hearing The Rock say "Cookiepuss"
Okay can we add to the bad that depending on your seat, you get wet?! I went on it in desperation this past week because Florida had record heat and I needed to sit in AC during my journey from Men in Black to The Mummy and it was a walk on. Anyway I was sat in the last row and during TWO explosions, my face got sprayed. Is that meant to be gasoline from the exploded tanker?! No thank you, Family.
Dom would totally beat Doc Brown in a race
i got blasted in the face with the mister the whole time i was riding that last time i was there
My only experience riding fast and the furious was the day after I got cheated on and dumped, my sister and I went to a concert that night there- she thought this ride would cheer me up a bit as I was in one of the worst mental health episodes of my life and it made me worse
Still waiting for an appearance of the good boy from Podcast: The Ride
y'all need to start donating to the trevor project every time you mention harry potter because it is A LOT.
These guys not knowing who cookiepuss is constitutes a felony I’m pretty sure. He came from the planet birthday to bring us the gift of his delicious body that we consume on special occasions. Do they not have carvel in LA?
The silver lining really is getting to hope this ride was so horrible Universal Creative will always look back at this as their rock bottom
Great thumbnail
Requesting Tokyo Disney, Disney Sea and the Beauty and the Beast Ride for a future pod!
And UH filmed a corona commercial with Pedro Pascal not too long ago 😂
I find it mildly interesting that a lot of attractions have spawned from the OG backlot tour. Jaws, Earthquake, Kong Skull Island, FF supercharged. If Universal Orlando was smart they would save a whole lot of space by putting them all together and STOP BUILDING STUPID TUNNELS.
it being forced on tram tour guests is the worst part, at least if it was bad on its own you could avoid it loll
Poseidon entertainment is looking a bit.. malnourished..?
1:29:36 "Unfortunately"?
love it baby
bro the way im sitting here laughing at myself after discovering this podcast a month ago as a theme park fan and just NOW realizing now that ryan is ryan from freaking buzzfeed after the recent discourse 😭 i love how the internet is examining every angle of their decision meanwhile they’re cracking open a cold one and talking about fast and furious the ride lmfao the dichotomy…never change guys 🤙🏼
Have you found Watcher yet? 😬 Ryan and Shane. 👍
@@mentalkrissie614 yes yes of course! i know them both i just mentioned ryan cause he’s the only one in the fya podcasts
