I wish I still had my annual pass so I can truly ride this baby one last time. I rode it sometime last year (before my passes expired) not knowing it would've been the last time! I think I found out shortly afterward it was closing.

My son loves the movies and loves this ride too...sad to see it go! :(

I got my last ride last year. I'm going again soon but I don't think it'll be this month. For old time sakes. http://youtube.com/watch?v=_QVlJ7X0IXU

Last time I went it was great except for the sound system. I didn't get to see the cup though but I did see the other ride vehicles which kinda ruins the effect. My favorite parts are raising out of the room and the smoke.

I shed a tear for this ride and in a way, good riddance. As much as I liked BTTF, the ride was really starting to show its age in more ways than one. Aside from the roughness and Hill Valley 2015 [where's Mr. Fusion, dammit!?], BTTF had a nice run at the park and I'll miss it just as much as I miss the airtime on Python's first drop.

I still hope a Simpsons ride gets installed though...
-My butt has touched 112 roller coasters, how unfortunate.

I say good riddance! Me no likey BTTF.

All those big screen simulator things give me a headache! Hopefully, they'll put something new and awesome in it's place. I think Fantazyland might have some rides they'd like to sell... :lmao:

I was hoping it wouldn't happen but I knew deep inside it would :(.
It's truly heavy to say but goodbye BTTF and remember your future is what you make it.
I guess this means they're getting rid of that great Doc Brown Impersonator.

i rode it for the first time last year, guess it was my last time. i honestly didn't enjoy it though. it was painful and i had to close my eyes halfway through it because it gave me motion sickness. i've always had problems with big movie screens doing that to me though. i can ride any kind of ride there is but watching motion on a screen like that gets to me every time just like reading a book while riding in a car. i was looking pretty green when i got off.

didn't universal get the rights to harry potter? perhaps they're planning a harry potter ride for the space? or was that just IOA.
