On a practical level, EPCOT’s only coaster - and arguably Disney’s greatest ride of all four of its Orlando parks - will undoubtedly draw crowds visiting the park for it specifically, so you can probably expect to spend a while in the Wonders of Xander museum-slash-line.
And what that really means is that it is 100%, pure fun. Everything feels thoroughly Guardians of the Galaxy.

Set to a fist-pumping soundtrack of ‘70s and ‘80s pop hits, similar to Aerosmith’s Rock 'n' Roller Coaster at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, you’ll ride to one of a possible six anthems: I rode to “September” by Earth, Wind and Fire, and on the inevitable run around to get back on the ride immediately after, “Conga” by the Gloria Estefan-fronted Miami Sound Machine (which saw the vehicle full of riders shake their bodies, unable to control them any longer). It all feels like the next step in the progression of classic dark rides like Space Mountain, turning the thrills up to 11 and using the new technology as a vessel for storytelling, fun and thrills, as opposed to making the innovations the star of the show. My tip: don’t run to the so-called ‘front row’ and instead, aim for row nine, which will become the front of the vehicle after launch. That also means that what appears to be the front row of the vehicle when loading does not stay that way for long, with the carriages changing position with the change in direction of the coaster and rotations of the vehicle. And as a theme park fan, it’s like nothing I’ve ever ridden before.įorget stomach-churning fairground spins, these are controlled rotations designed specifically to turn you to look from one huge curved screen, to the next centerpiece prop (circling down around the moon is a highlight).
Proceeding to propel us in every direction, your vehicle rotates to keep you focused on the stunning, rapidly changing action playing out around you, while a storming soundtrack of Peter Quill-approved pop pummels all the senses.

One of the largest indoor rollercoasters in the world, we move forward through the track to see Eson escape with the generator - and with that comes our use of time jumping and an unexpected, exhilarating backwards launch through the galaxy. What follows can only be described as a frenzy of dark ride madcap chaos.
