I really enjoyed the movie but I felt some of the characters were underdeveloped, like angel. I have always said that I thought angela bassett would have made a better storm but oh well...it almost seem as if halley didnt even try to have an african accent! But if anyone hasnt seen it yet I do reccomend it. And you HAVE to stay til the end because the bonus footage makes you think its NOT the last stand!

So I headed over to www.coastersandmore.de and decided to catch up on the year I probably havent been there and saw This. I was quite impressed w/ what the companies have comming out and what is to be avaliable! Jarvis "looking foward to the launched flying coaster concept" Morant!

Cedar Fair buys PARAMOUNT PARKS!
jarmor replied to Canobie Fan's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Why does everyone seem to think that automatically (insert paramount park here) will be getting a hyper and all the themeing will be gone? It would much easier and cost effective to retheme one barely themed park but w/paramount parks it will take a whole lot more money to retheme and rebrand then it would be to just pay for the license.

Yet Another Photo TR: Boomerang Bay Media Day
jarmor replied to Jonathan's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Awwww my very first SIDE BOOB Shot! -
Gonna be short and sweet...pretty good media event. VERY short and to the point. Not all the slides open but c'mon its only like 3 slides in the place anyway lol . Got a chance to talk to Bob White for a few about the direction of the parks and the scope. Got to show off what my momma gave me and even suggested to this chick trying to take a pic of me w/ her camera phone that I would even pose for her so it wouldnt look like she was sneaking to get the pic! Went w/ my little cousin shania who has never been to carowinds let alone a water park (but was more interested in seeing Dora the Explora). But typical southern day at the water park. Needless to say I did NOT feel bad being 2 threads away from being nude from looking at my surroundings! Well enjoy the pics! Boomerang bay...works even better AND quicker than nyquil! Wait...wait...shania watch....DOH! "Yes i am going to eat all of this...is that a problem?" Forget top gun, this is the best "crew" evar!!111!1!! pretty much how it looked after everyone ate lol! splash! cool looking slides...only adult slides open though... yummmm time to eat! All those balloonarangs and probably only 40% still had the vouchers on them! Bob White...the ceo, president, grand puba, basically the man incharge! forget the white boy behind me it's all about me! Caption it also! Caption it! ...gimme dat donkey butt and dem big ole legs I aint too proud to beg... Man, I love water parks! There I am in all my glory! I guess this is a TPR exxxclusive! look'er sexy in the pink a true G.R.I.T.S! You guessed it shania again...im training her for America's next top model! shania again... What a view... shania in the water... the "crew" holding up those 2 free tickets to carowinds vouchers...dang I want one! shania holding our balloonarangs! The reason I keep going to these media thingys...the food! In my opinion...the best looking thing in the water park now... Yeah right...prove it! 2 sec pic! Man I love taking those. Oh yea thats the "crew" But there's more...and yes that woman has tits on her back also! premature released balloonarangs! even had a real live kanga on hand! you get some really cool views from the expanded area! That screams wallpaper! Someone made the mistake and asked about FOF being relocated and scott showed them how unwanted guest are "relocated" Waiting to release the balloonarangs all shania had to say was "im hungry..." Ahh the "remake" of the old water park. Well lets compare the changes! Meet shania. She is my little cousin and the youngest kid I have ever known to have a cell phone!

jarmor replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I have been reading this whole thread and it seems that virtually everyone thinks its a launched coaster because intamin track is on site...That company does lots of style of coasters not just launched! Jarvis "heres to the most inversions coaster WITH a lift hill!" Morant -

Photo Trip Report: destination Dollywood!
jarmor replied to jarmor's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
^ here is the tripod pic! Its not fully erected but hey...its there lol! Yeah dude was def on the rag and stuff but its funny you ask how timber tower was...well I absolutely loved the ride and it brings a good mix of thrill levels to the park. But the last ride on it for us when we got on it the ride op was like "who's ready to get wet" and everyone was like uhhhhhh. It was almost mid 50's and I dont know who was actually ready to get wet. Well anyhow the ride started and did the first topple near the bear cave. As it was comming back up to the water side we saw the water rise and lowered...then wham! The water jets completely soaked us! I was sooo glad he got drenched but I was nervous because I had my camera in my pocket which was basically see thru by that time lol! But its a very nice ride, to ride and watch. -
I decided to drive over to dollywood sunday morning to check out the new additions and the last day of festival of nations. I actually went with a co-worker who was for the sake of better words a bitch the half of the day! I actually had some Tommy & James moments with him but he got over his period when we started riding Thunderhead. Im gonna let the pics speak for themselves! And just for you guys I uploaded three new videos highlighting the day right here! And yeah julie not only did I take a picture w/ the pickle I one up'd ya and ate it too! So there! weeeeeeeeeeeeeee some fly by! so close you can touch it... the only act I saw for festival of nations. They were really good and it was very nice to look at so lets check them out... The fake flyers... dizzy disk is still a fun ride. The ride op was very militant and screaming at anyone who took their hands off the hand thingy it was funny hearing her because she sound like the count from sesame street! one---ah ah haaaa....two---ah ah haaaaa rollin' for jesus! The veggie tales christ coaster! Coasters and christ...it doesnt get better than that! Now in the country fair we have the shooting star...I have never been on it but it looks cool! did I mention it was virtually empty...that pic was taken around 12 noon! One thing I like about craftsman valley is that they have little things like this all over the place. One of the best themed stations I had ever seen...and its not that shabby of a coaster at all! Did I mention the park was virtually empty! I soo wanted to push him in the path of the water right then! daredevil falls...didnt get to ride it because mary sunshine didnt want to get wet, even though it was raining periodically during the day! Suprisenly the only pic I took of timber tower the whole day. I did more video of it so check it out, including a full lenth video of the ride cycle! I wanted to try this attraction but then I thought about pulling my own weight and I ran like hell! This bird is the highlight of this years expansion. Its soo cool and funny! thunderheads first turn around the bear cave near timber tower I couldnt chose between the last pic and this so I posted both lol ahhh...the ever sooo popular thunderhead. That thing flys in the rain! note to self...never try to walk and take pictures! thunderhead gap had a name change already! I think thats a record. But thunder canyon better fits the area...and it was much better fit the area after next years attraction opens! i dont know why but its always raining whenever I go to dollywood! here's mary sunshine! He complained about my driving, asked me if I washed my hands after using the restroom, had the ride op on timber tower release the restraints because he didnt feel his glasses were safe, wanted plastic forks at aunt grannys and sin No TR will be complete w/o starting with a pic of me!

jarmor replied to Florida420's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
you win the award for having the first tr that made me actually laugh out loud! That was classic! Now you have to follow w/ every tr like that! -
I dont think these have been stated so... What was the most challanging project to date? How do they feel about the fact that hulk has a launch?
