This actually looks really great. It’s great to see more original content on Disney+. I’ll check it out for sure!

Yeah, I feel like the Nighthawk plot and Drop Tower plot could both just be left without a ride and look fine. Nighthawk is front and center but it's also well landscaped and has some trees ponds and fountains. I don't think they'll be in any rush to put anything there. The Enterprise plot might look weird but they could put literally anything there.

Also yeah... I'm a hands-up guy but it's violent in the valleys. It's smooth but crazy-aggressive, We put our hands up through the loops (my-bad if there was a rule against it. I was not aware of this and it wasn't communicated). Any other time, I wouldn't dare anyway.

We never rode it before the change but we rode it over the weekend. The ride is incredible. Is it safe? I don't know... but it's incredible and we've all got to go sometime so we rode it a ton even though we didn't expect to going in.

You should laugh

You can let people enjoy things without going on a rant about why they’re wrong. I agree with them. I’ve had much more enjoyable rides on the Cyclone since GCI came in than I used to. It ran like crap for a long time. PS: That post is from 2021

Great running into you on Friday!

I'm confused by what's going on here... so you already have plane tickets to Florida? What on earth?

You're right, this is a stand up routine. My apologies. I forgot that this hobby is very serious. You're right, I was kidding. Go to the American Dream Mall. It's great. I recommend pre-purchasing a dated "All Access Pass" ticket as it offers a full day of fun with unlimited ride access. I'd actually buy it now in case the park sells out for the day that you want. The website says that the ride will reopen on August 3rd so you should be all set. Again, my apologies. I hope you have a great time.

"I don't know if I can justify going to Great Adventure because a ride may not be open" and "I'm prioritizing Nick Universe" are not two statements that usually coexist but okay. Great Adventure's thing will not be open, but neither will Shellraiser. Plus, Sandy's Blasting Bronco is actually open right now so it's 1000% going to break again by next weekend. That's way too much time.

Every coaster in the park is open as I type this, but that is definitely a rarity this season.

I would go earlier but either is fine. The tradeoff is crowds vs staffing. Late August is dead, but smaller rides may not open or may open late, Gemini probably won't race if it opens at all, food lines might be extremely long with many places closed, etc.

I think you're giving Six Flags way too much credit, though I want to believe that someone somewhere in corporate has a complex excel formula that told them that 1 safari truck every 25 minutes at Safari Off Road Adventure is the absolute sweet spot for dispatch interval.

It's technically possible to do that depending on the park, just highly unlikely. If Parc Asterix had one of these, I wouldn't bat an eye if you told me they were hitting that. Six Flags? Yeah... you're lucky to do 400 riders per hour, but Great Adventure is currently running one train on every single coaster in the park except for Skull Mountain, Nitro and Kingda Ka so they've already established that they aggressively don't care about that.

Nobody is going to walk a literal mile round trip to save $2, and if they do... just let them do it. lol
