Tall Heights In Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic RewindCosmic Rewind may be too scary for kids who do not like heights or the feeling of being far up. This one is a little harder to explain, but the coaster track has the vehicles flying through space, and you do feel like you are in a spaceship surrounded by the stars.
INTRODUCING A REVERSE-LAUNCH COASTERThis family-thrill attraction features the first ever reverse-launch on a Disney coaster and is one of the largest fully-enclosed coasters in the world! An innovation from Walt Disney Imagineering—this coaster rotates 360 degrees so you can focus on the action!
By some measures, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is on the “more intense” end of the Walt Disney World roller coaster spectrum, but it's not intense by real world roller coaster standards.
But, being that this is a new coaster, it is incredibly smooth. You don't get the typical bumps and jostling you might find on Big Thunder Mountain or other coasters, but the rest of the technology and elements of this ride can make riders queasy.
Really big. It is a bouncing that does bring you out of your seat as you drop (lap belts should be tightened to help minimize this movement). Guardians of the Galaxy: Mission Breakout is absolutely a scary ride and just may be too scary for some kids.
The height requirement for this one is 42 inches. There are no big drops. The coaster is in the dark and you can't see the track at all times. There's a backward launch and LOTS of speed.
Now, guests hear classic rock/pop songs from the Guardians of the Galaxy film soundtrack, and experience one of six drop sequences (meaning the ride should be different the first few times you ride it). The ride itself is shorter, faster and more intense than Tower of Terror was, but it's not a huge change.
In most cases, guests who have been late to Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind have been allowed to ride after scanning their park ticket at the attraction's entrance. Though this may not be the case for every day, especially during the parks' busy seasons.
Yes. The Guardians believe us Terrans call it a ?roller coaster Type Ride." How much does it spin? The ride spins a fair amount, but it isn't free-spinning.
Depends on how you characterize intensity. Everest it's more bumpy and jerky, with stronger physical forces exerted. Guardians is much smoother, but much more disorienting in the dark with the screens and spinning. Guardians is more intense BY FAR.
Which seats are the best? If you're concerned about Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind being too intense, request one of the first two rows. That's the least thrilling and jarring. If you want the best seat from a storytelling perspective, anywhere in the middle is going to be ideal.
