OK, it's been more than 72 hours so it's time to retire the question. For the curious:
I would say that the most meaningful change is that the lava floor in the first section of the ride was changed to a nettled floor. Presumably it was done to prevent Rayman from floating over it after acquiring the lava flight power (which in Revolution is permanent), and reaching an area that is normally supposed to be accessible via the shell only.
Another answer I would have accepted is that there are yellow lums to be collected. This is merely due to the fact that their total number in the level has been increased from 50 to 80, so they had to put them
somewhere.
Strangely, no one came up with either of these.

Question 15: In Rayman Origins, after hitting the first two bubos on Big Mama, the heroes are thrown onto her head where a third, giant bubo appears. What happens if the heroes stall and don't destroy this bubo as fast as possible?

Don't her arms move vertically and the heroes will either fall, or have to wall jump?

For some reason I thought there was some big change in the shell ride you were thinking about that I didn't know about. If I had known this would have been fine I would have just answered at some point. Too bad for me I guess.

Well, there is no harm trying an answer, even if you are not sure about it, if you don't have a better one. In any case, you seem to be doing quite well in this round even without it.

I was right about the bad reason! Seriously, who came up with this idea of a super helicopter power that conveniently works above lava, but nowhere else? That felt very gimmicky.

I always thought it made sense, because you've got hot air and possibly vapour rising from the hot lava which will help keep Rayman airborne. I know he needs a Silver Lum as well, but it certainly adds up for me…

Im pretty sure nothing happens, and you just stand there until you destroy the giant bubo.

Doesn't it actually specify in-game the hot vapors being the reason for the infinite flight ability? Or maybe I'm just mixing canon and headcanon.

Place two rows of seed types over the desired area, instead of just one.
I don't know how they thought level designers would make use of that without any way to ask questions like in Rayman Junior

Maybe they never meant for it to be used outside of Junior.

Yes! The level has been renamed "Geyser Blast", and I think I finally know which answer The Jonster was looking for in last season's quiz.

He comments this in the first phase of Hoodlum Headquarters, at the spinneroo protected by the hoodoo up above.

Not a trick question this time. There are cages. Maybe we're not thinking about the same challenge?

It's been a while since I did this, but I believe there were 8 cages. When you break them all, a giant eye that usually blocks a path disappears, allowing you to meet the Dark Magician himself at the end of it and receive the Dark Magician Rayman skin.

I'm going to give you the point, because it's been more than 2 days and it's obvious nobody is going to answer it at this point, and you are almost correct! Everything you've described is accurate, except the number of cages, of which I believe there are 10.
