I heard Cafe Sirene opens for breakfast with EPA, is this accurate? I imagine people just lining up for MOM at EPA opening if the portal is open.

That's correct.

 

[Captain Spaulding]

That's correct.

Damn, nice to have another breakfast option, but just makes it easier to flood the queue for MOM super early. Maybe that is a good thing though LOL, opens up everything else.

Got on MoM 15 minutes before park close, with a 75 minute posted wait. Walked all the way to the locker room, had a 20 or so minute delay and then rode. This ride is fantastic, second only to MU. I wish id seen more of the queue but I’m not going to complain about a less than 30 minute wait!

We then got to walk an almost empty park back , it looked awesome.

So, near the end of this gigantic queue, you walk up more stairs only to walk down stairs right after. Like a triangle of stairs. What is the point of other than to make me even more tired? Like, is there a story beat I missed?

You go up over a ride path.

95% of the time, whenever you are going up and down stairs in a ride queue, you are ascending to the ride platform and/or traveling over the ride area.

They did in fact install that staircase specifically to make IU forum member Skold tired.

Thanks a lot, now we all must traverse the wizarding stairs of doom. Whatever did you do to upset Universal so bad!?!

While we're at it - on Gringotts we go down in the elevator, then immediately walk back up stairs.

What gives?

In story I’m pretty sure the elevator is supposed to be taking us MUCH further down than the stairs going up.

In real life we’re going up about as far as the drop, I think.

I’d like to a blueprint of BatM. If that is in fact to go over a track, could’ve done a lot better.

I have a lot of nitpicks but this parks is awesome

Do you mean the first drop on the ride? Because the “elevator” doesn’t go anywhere.

The first drop during the ride
