Thorpe Park Discussion Thread
ECZenith replied to Rooey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I love the movies, and I'm not surprised a ride is being built based on the franchise. Love them or hate them the saw films are tremendously popular and licensing a thrill ride based on them is a good move. Plus, at least you get some theming! Judging from the large building frame going up I can hope the ride will have some show elements, maybe a little bit of a walk through experience before the ride? It will be interesting to watch this develop. -
What Was The Last Coaster You Rode?

Went "next door" to Big Thunder Mountain railroad after a long shift yesterday. -
Europa Park Discussion Thread
ECZenith replied to Ultracoasters's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
This kind of stuff happens a lot, especially when it's the manufacturer's first project of this scale. I'm sure they'll mend the track to fit properly fairly easily. -
Kings Island (KI) Discussion Thread
ECZenith replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I think the reason why you see so many red roller coasters is that it stands out more dramatically than any other color. A park investing in a large coaster is going to want it to be seen for miles and red makes a big impact as far as showing "ferocity" or intimidation, IMO. -
Paramount's Gardens of America
ECZenith replied to DBru's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
I was following this project and I;m sad to see it go... You shouldn't give up making parks, you should just make abackup copy of your save file so this doens't happen again. Keep on building, man. -
Port Aventura (Spain) Halloween Event
ECZenith replied to demonangel23's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Yeah, it looks like DK's paint just faded to a rust red, I remember a couple years ago it was nice and bright red. Did they have any mazes? -
Walibi Belgium Discussion Thread
ECZenith replied to Dark Vampire's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
With the coaster taking so long to open with repeated long term downtimes I'm not surprised they went and removed it. It's a shame for the park's regulars that they only had the ride for a little while. -

Watch out Intamin! That first element is just weird, in a good way, of course. -
I rode the Xcelerator!
ECZenith replied to Rocket Rodder's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Xcelerator has got to have the best looking trains of any coaster I've ridden, I love the design. Smooooooth stop... -
Halloween yard haunts
ECZenith replied to Rastuso's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
When I lived in Rhode Island, every Halloween I would make a backyard trail haunt. Here's some photos from 2006's Terror Trail. http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=30253&highlight=terror+trail -

Photo TR: Hanno (and camera) go Behemoth/East Coast with TPR
ECZenith replied to Hhappy's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
I love Wildwood, it was one of my favorite places to go when I lived on the east coast. Dante's Dungeon is a really good dark ride with a couple live actors and it's been recently overhauled with all new tricks, next time make sure you try it out! Very impressive photos, by the way. Shooting lightning is NOT easy! -
Kings Island (KI) Discussion Thread
ECZenith replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Diamondback is coming up quick, I'm definately making a trip out to Ohio next year. I still haven't been on Maverick and the fact that a new B&M is coming up at KI doesn't hurt. -

Wow, this is Spooky World's 4th location afer being moved so many times. I've been to the first 3 locations and was never dissapointed. Thanks for sharing the photos, and making me miss my New England home... ::sob:: -
Alton Towers Discussion Thread
ECZenith replied to Ed's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Given their good relationship with B&M I wonder if the possible new concept they are working on could be a possibility. Screamscape: B&M - (9/18/08) This information is a little vague… but our source claims that B&M will announce a brand new coaster design concept sometime this fall, possibly even before the big IAAPA show in November. Anyone know more or is this just some fanboy’s dream? Who knows... will be fun to find out though.
