Definitely not overthinking it... the ride will remain based around the original film, and the name is basically SDSC 2.0, but just a better name than that. 

I made a post about the rides refurb coming up, and one of the common comments was people hoped it wasn't going to based around the new cartoon, and still stick to the original film. And I am very glad it is doing so. The queues entrance and the cars themselves are based off the film, so it makes sense to continue with this.

I definitely agree and would much rather it keep the theme of the original as it is one of my favourite movies. What I mean is could some people expect a different story line because of the addition to the name.

Visited the park today and went on the ride for the first time in a while. People have mentioned this before, but too confirm there is a large white wall in place at the first bend as you leave the station, up until the bunny hops.

There was no smoke in the disco room, and one laser placed on the ground.

MW updated info on the Spooky Coaster via their website.

 

It really scares me that it only says mapping projection, mist and sound and no mention of anything physical. I would assume that since they were specific by including mist in the description that they would have included mention of any physical sets, props or animatronics if they were being used since those types of things are a big deal and very expensive.  

I really hope they still use real sets and they just haven’t mentioned i think it will take away from the character of the ride, not that it will not be good either way I mean I can’t judge it until is finished but here’s hoping.

@Mc coaster

They are bringing back the old animatronics and other physical sets from the ride before they gutted it. The projection mapping is like ‘the cherry of the cake’.

Does does that mean the ride won’t just be screens? It will be like the original version but even more awesome

Projection mapping doesn't involve screens!

I hope you have a new source because your last one sucked.  Statements like "They are" leaves you nowhere to go when little Jimmy leads you down the wrong path.

An object being utilised as a screen.  A surface is required.

The only button I'm looking for is his E-stop.😀

Sorry... only a slow stop is available, but you have to press four different buttons... with your toes.

You only have to press four different buttons because none of them are labelled.

One of these buttons brings everyone to a safe stop to enjoy the rest of their day... the other creates Orphans... YOUR GUESS WHICH ONE! Welcome!!

Note no orphans were created in the DW accident. 

Maintenance was scheduled to finish early November but has now been pushed back till early December. I hope it changes. 

What the actual hell

I was really hoping they WOULDNT choose that name!!

Catch up McFly...

With time it hasn't helped the name roll of the tongue any better.

Your right. I was wrong. Won't happen again.

sorry skeet

Honestly its not that bad. Well I mean its terrible, but no one will actually call it that apart from the park.

People will still call it scooby coaster or shorten it to letters.
