Favorite Water Ride
disneyfan1313 replied to SFMM rocks my socks's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Splash Mountain at WDW is by far #1 with Vahalla at BPPB #2 and Journey To Atlantis when the effects used to work at SWO #3. I'm surprised to see so many people list Ripsaw Falls as #1! I always found it painful with gross and moldy water and logs and effects which rarely work.... have I just had bad luck? -
^^ Did you really ask for a Nightmaze house.. LOL. I doubt they will be any longer - they can't make the Sprung Tent ones any larger or really the Disaster Queue and the Herc and Xena was a pretty short maze the year they used it before. Hopefully the quality will be a bit higher if they do 7...but who knows!

Skycoastin' Steve's 2012 Season Extravaganza!!
disneyfan1313 replied to Skycoastin Steve's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
I'm excited to ride this at some point, although I do have to agree that the station looks like crap! So generic, plain and blah. -
Legoland Florida Discussion Thread
disneyfan1313 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^^ But they didn't open a second park... they lightly re-themed an existing water park. I still don't understand who is going to this park and if it is actually doing well or not. NO ONE in Orlando is talking about it. I'm honestly still a bit confused on their expectations to draw from Orlando.... -
I have always been able to do everything the first couple of weekends without an express pass - but you need to be there pre-opening and hustle to knock out a few houses before it gets dark and everyone else gets there. That being said, will you actually be living in Orlando? Buy a frequent fear pass and do a few days so you can repeat your favorites, have time to see bill and ted, etc.

Erik & Smisty's Florida Oddventures
disneyfan1313 replied to Electerik's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
In all seriousness is it worth the $$ in a kitchy "lets do this even though we know it sucks" kind of way? Are there any redeeming qualities? -
The biggest issue is the guy wants the safety requirement to be "grey" and for the park to go - "We feel YOU can handle this ride with what you have so we will make an exception to the rule for YOU". The park isn't going to do that because they aren't experts in what the physics of the ride can possibly do in a 100 different scenarios... the same reason why height requirements are black and white also.

The South America Trip Report
disneyfan1313 replied to Mrenata's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Wow! Awesome to see such unique parks and great photos of the non-park stuff as well. What are fortune teller birds? -
^ Yes. Milling and creating parts that don't exist anymore (even with todays computer-assisted tools) is quite expensive. It all comes down to a cost vs. benefit decision for the park. If they feel that money would be better invested with a off-the shelf ride that would require less maintenance then I would bet Greezed is going away.

Photo TR: Six Flags Mexico and La Feria Chapultepec
disneyfan1313 replied to shivtim's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Great TR! Not sure how I missed this before. How did the prices for admission, food, etc compare to other Six Flags properties?
