00:00Guardians of the Galaxy Mission Breakout is finally ready for launch at Disney California Adventure.
00:05And while the fans of the classic Twilight Zone Tower of Terror ride may be skeptical
00:09of the new Marvel-inspired version, The Hollywood Reporter's Ryan Parker was there for the
00:13attraction's media preview, brought back some pics and video and can confirm it is seriously epic.
00:18Without giving too much away, because as Parker says, it's totally worth seeing firsthand.
00:23Here's a breakdown of what you can expect from the new ride. First, what used to be the lobby
00:27of the haunted hotel has been totally transformed into Benicio Del Toro's character,
00:32The Collector's massive display room in his fortress. According to Parker,
00:36"...as soon as I saw a life-sized Cosmo wagging his tail in the glass case, I knew this was going to be special."
00:42The setup for the ride begins in what used to be the room where guests were told they were entering
00:46the Twilight Zone's fifth dimension. It is now The Collector's office and it is chock full of items
00:51from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. While in the office, a shockingly realistic animatronic rocket
00:56breaks in and explains his Guardian pals have been captured by The Collector and he is there
01:00to sabotage things, of course. And he needs your help because the scanners won't work on his paws.
01:05After a few more twists and turns, you arrive at the main feature where there are six escape scenarios.
01:10According to Parker, the ride is a galactic blast. The drops are just as terrifying as they were on Tower,
01:16but Guardians also features quick ascents. The initial one is like being shot out of a cannon.
01:21Overall, Parker said the ride is exhilarating and left me wanting to get right back in line to go again.
01:26OK, now I can't wait to go ride it for myself. For more on Guardians of the Galaxy, Mission Breakout,
