Does anybody know anything about this-
JUST ANNOUNCED - Hollywood Rip, Ride, Rockit is coming to Universal Orlando®!

Adrenaline pumping and music thumping, you'll find yourself heading straight toward the sky. Suddenly, you are doing 65 mph, 17 stories over Universal Studios. Gasping with excitement, you rock out to a song you picked before strapping in. And, it's all on video. Once the adventure is over, you edit the video to send to your friends. This is true high-tech, customizable, multi-sensory entertainment.

Scheduled to open in spring 2009, Hollywood Rip, Ride, Rockit will stake its claim as the most technologically advanced roller coaster in the world!

The entrance to this ride looks like it's going to be behind the stage which is between Jimmy Neutron + the Twister rides.

Anyone have any more update on this ride?

Myself and the wife are going over again at the end of this month and would love to try it but its looking doubtful that it will be open.
