Stand-Up coasters could be really cool if they somehow manage to make it comfortable. I rode Riddler Revenge at Magic Mountain recently and it was super fun when my groin didn't hurt.

2 row cars on a B&M thrill coaster is also a first, is it not (excluding wing coasters which are technically 4 a row)? Something to note if nothing else.

Yeah, I'm on the "meh" bandwagon, did we expect more though? Something new for Florida though, I guess. I just find that after I've been stood waiting for an hour, the last thing I want is to have to stand on a ride too.

Well who woulda thought that the stand-up was gonna make an encore after a nearly 25 year hiatus.

I guess all fads truly are cyclical, even coaster ones.

Well, I'm intrigued enough to postpone a Florida trip until next year when this is open. Not because I think it's gonna be mind-blowingly unmissable necessarily, far from it, but simply because visiting SeaWorld while a new style B&M is actively under construction would do my nut in.
Wonder how big it's gonna be? The two abreast seating arrangement implies lighter, more maneuverable trains so will it be a tighter, more compact, more whippy style layout? Or a huge sprawling giant?

I'm pretty sure the full layout has been leaked on numerous YouTube videos, and I'd say it's neither a huge sprawl nor tight and compact
