Mr. Freeze to turn RED!

I can see it happening. The batman area in SFoG is full of colors and depends on the shade of red and blue it may work well. -
Photo TR: RATANGA JUNCTION

Whoa...im impressed by the detail of the park! Very nice look looking and your pictures makes it look very good. -
lol lol how I got away...well it was like he was intimidating me the whole time on the interstate and I basically told him I thought he was trying to get around me so I increased my speed a tad bit. It didnt take me long to get to 130 in a jaguar but honestly I dont even think he had a radar to see how fast I was going. His whole agenda was to see if it was my car (which he asked me lol lol) and why I was in Tenn from SC. And MM actually does look like a smaller version of tower of terror and if you wander if there is light at the end of the tunnel...does an explosion count? (not including the one at the top of the larger lift!! **disclaimer I dont know any facts just going by what seemed to be a hardcore park employee/fan!

First off im gonna say I have no secret relatives that work for universal nor do I know anything about the park but on the unmasking tour I was talking to one of the guides and I asked about IOA and what was originally planned and they mention that suess wasn't on the drawing board at first but it was actually the flintstones. It was suppose to be similar to viva rock vegas but they decided it didnt have the staying power as well as suess. And thinking about the layout of the area and the attractions I can easily see it happening.

probably will never happen...they will loose too much money.

Videos of rides which no longer exist
jarmor replied to tinhead's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
This topic was made like....a year ago! Also the video forum is for your videos...not linked videos! Jarvis "lets look at the dates lol lol " Morant! -
^yeah it will be in there along w/ some other "special effects" It does have cross overs galore AND it gives that out of control feel and some decent pops of where you would think it wouldn't have it! I really enjoy it and it seems like it goes on forever! On to some more photos! First I want to say I left my tripod at home so some of the pics maybe a tad bit blurry but they are still pretty good. I am now on my quest to find PEOPLE in this park. I really hope it will be this slow on april 13th ! And just like a kid after a fun day at disney world Mccarthy falls out as soon as we get to the car! I bet he is dreaming about his fun day! Time for the parade! While its not main street electrical parade it's still pretty cool! Close up w/ the nutcrackers! The tree at night... I GOT MY CREDIT!!! (just as soon as she turned her back!) Would I be a pig if I go back to aunt grannies for a second round... they even look good at night! If only it were "er" (tallER. fastER, biggER) That blue tree again! the finally of "Babes in Toyland" but it should have been called "where all the old folks go to sleep" I forgot what this thing is called... The amount of lights are abundant. "Jingle bells batman smells robin laid an egg..." This HAS to be the picture of the year...and I didnt even have my tripod. The lights back here are just thrown around...on purpose! Ahhh...the best thing arrow has going for it...ironically the last! Some school was singing...meh i'll pass. The infamous blue tree. The lights are just awesome! Its getting darker and the lights are getting brighter. "...and when I stick my thing in the glory hole..." Humm...the gloryhole seems to be the hottest! WOW I was right...but hey...they are LEAVING!!! Well since no one is here im gonna head to aunt grannies to get a bite. Maybe they will show when I come out! Well...theres the angel Another view. Some more changes where the angel tree which is now this tree. Can you tell me where the people are? Ohhhhh Ahhhhh "Im smiling because finally a theme park were im not the oldest thing roaming!" Could it be...people...RATS they work for the park...nevermind. talk about VIP treatment. I called dollywood ahead of time and gave them a simple request, to be alone in the park, and low and behold they came thru!

I don't believe it's an issue of being "easy", but more-so maintenance. That seems to be one of the definitions of easy lol . Are you talking about this thunderhead... or the other one ! -
Ok im back and I survived..wait this isn't HHN, but anyway here are some MM shots. While talking to a ride op at lumberjack falls I found out some interesting tid bits about the park and the coaster itself. She seemed to know her stuff and it made me even more intrigued with this ride. The actual building should be complete by the end of the month then work will be focused on the show scenes since the track is already completed. Also the buzzard now tells a story about the grandson of some miner and how he took off his boots in the mine and was whistling and stuff started to happen. All I can say is that I feel this will be the best new attraction of 07! Now lets go check out some lights... Later MM see ya in a week or two! One more overview. Kinda blurry but this place should be called christmas ghost town! Looks like electrical stuff... Loop-de-loop Closer look. Random workers. Hummm... MM: "Im a mystery how about you?" Me: Im a libra! I wonder what the landscaping will be like... The first half seems to also be interesting! Only this missing from this is an enterprise...DOLLYWOOD NEEDS AN ENTERPRISE!!1!!1!! You pull i'll point and shoot! Similar but not the same! The "corkscrews" as many of the employees like to call them. Heck even one of the employees stated he liked Son of Beast! Cool angle. Thats gonna cause quite a frenzy! Herein lies a mystery...a mystery drop and some other "interesting" stuff! Mean while back at the ranch THE Thunderhead keeps a rolling! wooooow

Well not exactly but anyway, I went up or should I say over to dollywood to check out christmas in the smokies yesterday. After almost not making it there, got pulled over for going 130 in a 60 zone 5 miles from the exit AND I didnt get a ticket , I finally got there around 3. I decided to take someone to the park w/ me but the question was who? I began to think...disney world to kids is like dollywood to old folks so who would be more fitting to take a trip to dollywood w/ me than an old geezer! I mean think about it, they would fit right in and I wouldn't look stupid riding around in the hover-a-rounds! Stay tuned to see if I survived this ride...(well if im sitting here typing obviously I did but hey lets keep the suspense going!) Since Dollywood is in the business of changing the names of sections like a year after they open I think they should name this "Mystery Mine Midway! "Hey im the biggest woodie in Tenn and no one wants to ride me..." Getting closer and closer to april 13th! The obligatory thru The Thunderhead shot...hey why do they call it "The Thunderhead"? Whoa its the Adams family coaster first presented by paramount parks, I mean you know they are the same.../sarcasm Whats that lurking? Why do I take this same shot EVERYTIME I go to dollywood? Thunderhead gap/Timber Canyon seems to have some new displays this year! And I like them!! Good ole knee slapping church music! At mid afternoon i tend to turn colors... The purdy entrance Save all the "hey you look like a gap commerical goes ghetto" jokes! "Hi, im mccarthy and this is my first time here but from the looks of it...not my last!" ahhh the first thing you see when you approach the park...

im thankful for being able to own my own home, have a somewhat secure job, not to go hungry, to be able to love myself, to be able to pay bills, for this site (it feeds my boredom), my car, everything!
