** Orlando's version was originally going to be about Imhotep wreaking havoc in a history museum, but budget cuts resulted in it revolving around a film production instead. The ride's outside facade still reflects the original museum story, interestingly enough.

* OfficiallyShortenedTitle: The attraction is occasionally named as ''The Mummy Ride''.

* DevelopmentHell: In a sense, as the idea of a major roller coaster had been in development for Universal Studios Florida for nearly a decade. It first originated as a launched coaster based around ''Film/Apollo13'', and later as a coaster through the set of a movie studio that specializes in disaster films (an idea that was later repurposed for the ''Ride/{{Disaster}}'' attraction), and again later as a thrill ride based on the works of Creator/StephenKing. One of the scenes in the proposed Stephen King attraction was actually recycled into the Orlando version of ''Revenge of the Mummy'', as the concept featured the same "false unloading station" scene, just with [[Literature/{{It}} Pennywise]] instead of Imhotep.
* OfficiallyShortenedTitle: The attraction is occasionally named as titled ''The Mummy Ride''.Ride'' on some merchandise.



** The ride was born out of plans for a roller coaster themed after ''Film/Apollo13''.



* WorkingTitle: When the ride was first in development, it was referred to as a "Scorpion King roller coaster." It is unknown whether this was what Universal was originally considering or if it was just a goof on the insiders' part.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
** Original concepts for the attraction depict the ride track going ''outside'' the building and mummy warriors actually ''jumping onto'' the vehicle, how this would've been pulled off is anyone's guess.
