I love how they incorporated their inability to create realistic animatronics into the script by making the entire thing a puppet show. That's actually pretty smart.
It is! I like to imagine that this was something they came up with in the 11th hour when the whole thing had already been built and they only had time to re-tool the first scene and attach a bunch of strings to the cealing :)
That queue is a ride in itself, so well themed! Also, y’all got a lotta complaints for people who aren’t funding the ride. Yeah the animatronics are limited motion but the sets are detailed and the animatronics look good! Disney level animatronics are insanely expensive, and when you have a limited budget you have to be creative. I think this ride is really successful, it has amazing themeing, good storytelling, and you can tell that the team behind it worked their hardest to make a good ride and it shows.
This is probably my favorite dark ride attraction that I have seen from this park plus it is the best attraction design I have seen for the film Shrek in any Theme Park. Yes, the animation is not smooth but hey, It's a puppet show so it does not have to be. That being said, the way the story plays through with the ride vehicle's help as it turns, there are some wonderful and creative FX. Nicely done.
Color me impressed, Motiongate Dubai actually has a ride that lives up to the standards they said (They originally stated they were making rides whose quality was on par with Disney or Universal). While the animatronic's movements are as smooth as I would want, the presentation is definitively better than Hotel Transylvania or any other of the dark rides they were trying to pass off. This one's presentation as being told through a puppet show does great wonders. Not only do the animatronics look great, but the flat 2D cardboard cutout scenery also make sense in a lot of places too. Creativity definitively can help trump any monetary shortcomings for sure. Definitively one of the better attractions at Motiongate by far.
Bongo in a Top Hat Well, it certainly doesn't take much to make you happy. I mean, if this is the best thing in Motiongate, I think I'll give the rest of the park a pass. This really sucked. Humiliating and embarrassing.
I thought it was cute and charming! The sheer number of scenes from the movie was impressive. I don't think even Disney can boast a "movie summary" ride that had this many scenes. Some of the rooms were huge, all decorated with lots of detail. But why was it so empty? Not a soul in line or the gift shop?
Melanie Beasley Why was it empty???? Because the ride SUCKS!! I can't believe you compared this drivel, cheap mess to the great Disney. They tell wonderful and imaginative stories on their rides. This was embarrassing.
@@graymoreghost well not everyone has the budget as Disney. They had a good idea and not a high budget. So they made the anamotronics look like puppets. A pretty good idea if you ask me.
... wow, Motiongate dubai actually made a decent dark ride even with their... less than amazing animatronics. Still, there's a solid difference between this and something like Snow White's scary adventures. Speed. I can't help but think that if they varied the speed (if they could vary the speed) of the ride vehicles, giving more of a jerky motion conveying that rush, that'd be better. Some scenes just seem to get drawn out way too much, though again, credit to them for making due with the less sophisticated animatronic figures. Though I can't help but think that this sort of tech would be better fitted for say... a five nights at freddy's walkthrough attraction.
+Alyssa Leder HECK YEAH! They Maybe Universal Parks and Resorts would probably added in this Shrek ride for their parks like Shrek's Far Far Away section at Universal Studios Singapore and even Universal Studios Hollywood!

Kenneth Desmond Mosley honestly I’ve went there multiple times and it’s very crowded that even in the fast pass you should wait at least 15 minutes so I guess that people who film these kind of stuff come in early before all the chaos happen
It gets 3.5 out of 5. While I can appreciate the style of the ride I can't help but feel they cut too many corners. It's just not Disneyland/Disney World quality.
These people obviously saw Mystic Manor at Shanghai Disneyland. They completely ignored the lessons about show, drama, timing and integration it teaches. The Dubai park obviously had more than double Mystic Manor's budget, and they utterly wasted it on a near complete lack of show. Universal should have asked the designers for an attraction synopsis before licensing the Shrek property. All I can say in closing is: I wish I had the millions of dollars the people wasted on this lame attempt at show. The pity is that this is probably the best attraction at the entire Dubai debacle. How sad.

Rarietty they are animatronics with the illusion that it’s a puppet show because they can’t make fluent animatronics.
This is from my country
Is he the only person on the ride??

4:45 the most important anamatronic ever made.
Surprise! the ride vehicles are actually snail powered!!! 🐌🐌🐌
🐌meow
It’s a dark ride, it’s supposed to be dumbass, this ain’t a roller coaster
@@MatthewtheHaunter Who pissed in your swamp buddy? 😂
Greetings! May I use this footage in a video I'm making about bizarre dark rides? I will give your channel full credit.
Sure no problem.
That's smart, their other rides have a tendency to look janky, so the puppet show idea gave them more leeway to be creative

Can anybody tell me where is it at ?

"Giant string puppets"? Well,that's one way to disguise the barely moving,cheapjack animatronics!
+snarkus63 Animatronic puppets of different characters?
snarkus63 it's suppose to be a puppet show what Shrek is showing
It is very interesting but smart
its better than the other rides. and its a good idea, fresh idea

True, but not a single scene was really impressive or memorable, most of them look scarily empty.
Melanie Beasley it'd ride it

The ride would have been better with all star at the start
She was looking kinda dummb

Fnaf sucks I hope they never make a ride for it
I'm surprised no one has made a fnaf ride yet, it'd be pretty marketable, albeit less then it would've been back in 2015/2016.
OH MY GOD THEY HAD THE DULOCK PUPPETS I'M CRYING
Definitely the most well done in the park. Not amazing, but not as bad as the others.
This is awesome! I wish Universal Studios had something like this instead of the 4D ride.
someBODY ONCE TOLD ME THE WORLD WAS GONNA ROLL ME
I AIN'T THE SHARPEST TOOL IN THE SHEEEED!!!!!! XD
4:22 they met on Facebook. Case closed.
Better out then in would definitely apply to this ride
I LOVE THIS RIDE!!!!!!! GO MORE RIDE PLEASE!!!
Universal should of done this instead of that lame 3D shit
+Alyssa Leder HECK YEAH! They Maybe Universal Parks and Resorts would probably added in this Shrek ride for their parks like Shrek's Far Far Away section at Universal Studios Singapore and even Universal Studios Hollywood!
Solidworkstudios IDK
+Alyssa Leder You have to listen to me! Maybe I might want this to happen!
Animatronic puppets of different characters controlled by humans?!?!?
Alyssa Leder I guarantee you every ride at this park is subpar at best.
Trend101Warrior Universal Orlando bought 450 acres of land, so hopefully they do start bringing back practical sets once they open a new park
SHREK IS FUCKING TERRIFYING! I haven't been this scared since I saw Return To Oz when I was 6! What were they thinking?
Minus the Disney animatronics,the ride actually looked awesome.
It's never Ogre to go on a Shrek ride!
I have to go to dubai now
The biggest meme in the world is now a ride 😯
The puppet thing is an interesting way to cover up poor quality, but I think putting shrek's narration over the ride would have sold it more.
4:48 reminds me of the "It's a small world after all" :D
7:56 welp we ran out of money in our low budget so now we're going to use dumb cardboard cutouts
I think this is why I have never been to Dubai.
Why does Dubai have all the rides with the best properties behind them?

Well that's a long ride, I'm glad Universal finally decided to have an actual ride and not their 3D crap.
Uhh it’s not at any universal park, it’s a licensed intellectual property at the mediocre motion gate dubai park
The characters are string puppets
What the hell before he started that "journey" it was so creepy! Why did that Tree got a face and why did the eyes glow red?!
It’s eery how empty is
Is this ride still out at universal studios in Orlando Florida
夢に出てきそうな暗さ:(´◦ω◦`):
they can do amazing facades and scenes, they just need to fix ride pacing and make the animatronics with more movement
Frankly, it was a fictional experience in Motiongate Dubai. I spent a very enjoyable time with my family and the games that were there were world-class, and there are few people who say that the place is not beautiful because of their jealousy😂.
Awesome!
Better than Madagascar Crate Escape.
Not bad imo.

T Luna WELL THE YEARS START COMING
5:47 omfg you can literally see the rails shrek is walking on
Very mad with this no use of all star

Was hoping some "all star” at the start of the ride
My mind: *all star*
Wow, look at these

Mike Quinn this is motiongate Dubai.
6:23 They ripped off the Revenge of the Mummy scarabs scene.
Every time I see video from this park no ones there
Kenneth Desmond Mosley honestly I’ve went there multiple times and it’s very crowded that even in the fast pass you should wait at least 15 minutes so I guess that people who film these kind of stuff come in early before all the chaos happen
What's this park?
that's how u make a shrek ride universals in the usa should take notes they could make this better like frozen ride better
Capt. RichNike frozen is disney...
It gets 3.5 out of 5. While I can appreciate the style of the ride I can't help but feel they cut too many corners. It's just not Disneyland/Disney World quality.
Why looked like no one there except you?
Hey now your an all star get your game go pay
Where is all star??????

ViCareyous Mystic Manor is in Hong Kong
technically, I think this was licensed out before Universal bought Shrek proper as part of Dreamworks animation.
ViCareyous I agree with what you said 1000%!!!!!!
the 101 Dislikes are lord farquadd and his men
4:46 GRRRRRRRRRRRR *breaks the thing*
Not bad, but they spent way too much time in the creepy castle part and not enough establishing Shrek and Fiona's relationship.
Thanks
