Yes it is open and I've heard it's really funny, even the wait queue is funny. The ride uses the same mechanism as Back to the Future but I've heard the seats are more confortable.

It's a very neat ride, the queue is well done and the preshow has quite a few laughs in it (as well as some Back to the Future in jokes). It's a nice update to the attraction although I still miss BTTF.

Hi There
Not been around for awhile as living the the UK , but just booked my next trip to Orlando . Will be out there this Oct .
Looking forward to the new Rides like The Simpsons etc .
I also think it's a same the BTTF ride is no longer , it was a classic Uni must have loads of room to add new rides so Why replace .

We went on this last week and absolutely hated it! The queue was fun, lots of simpsons cartoons and the pre show was great. The seating on the actual ride was OK, the lapbar was one where it fits you all at the same time and I felt like I could have done with the bar being down further.
But the actual ride was way too intense for me, there were 8 people in the car including us, and when the ride was over, four got off (including me) saying they hated it and wouldn't ride again! To be honest, it was the people over 25 who hated it, the kids on the ride loved it!
I'm glad I tried the ride, but it isn't one I want to do again!

I wouldn't go so far as to say it is intense. I would say that it is far too fast paced and the simulated motion is a little to jerky. I would have expected it to be somewhat smoother considering all the investment

Winkster, it certainly felt like it could have the old simulator, we only ever did the back to the future ride once as it was too bumpy for us!

Like most people have said, I found it a lot like the old Back to the Future ride, which wasn't to my liking. The que for the ride was funny though, especially the comment Homer makes about the que time
