Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith
CoasterFanatic replied to Sir Clinksalot's topic in Random, Random, Random
While I thought that Episode I was average at best, Episode II looked like a damn video game (no offense robb)! With that in mind, III looks to be the movie that may save the "New" trilogy. // Nothing will ever beat "empire". It's like the "Godfather II" of the franchise. -

Bonus: If you throw the controller at the TV it will come back and hit you in the head! -
^ Are you using a PDA/Blackberry/etc? That would definately explain the interesting relationship that you got going with the english language.

Photo TR: Dollywood SpringCon weekend
CoasterFanatic replied to DerekRx's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Miss Lillian is probably my favorite character in the park. When I went last year, she made me wear the silly chicken hat and eat a gizzard. Oh the memories. // Doesn't call 911 either -

Marathon riding?
CoasterFanatic replied to AllisonY2K's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Same here. Probably one of the best ERTs ever. 2 Trains full of riders just riding over and over and over. -

Well I have seen some others do this and thought it would be funny to expose some people to the Weirton nightlife. Using the "trip report" heading might be a little misleading because we only went a couple of blocks, but I will give it a shot .... Another Saturday night comes to an end as I leave Carmens which is now just a pile of smoldering ash! Till next time .... later. Kuz approves! Once at Carmen's, the girls give this whole Karaoke thing a shot. Amy decided that we should move the party across the street ... so we headed over to Carmens Fireside Inn. After Kuz finished, Skipper and I gave "Brick House" a go! Once we got to Amy's, the karaoke machine started the party. Kuz started it off with a song for all the young lovers. We arrived at Amy's house where we were greeted by Shaun (old roommate)

That thing is running MUCH better this year. Has anybody else noticed this yet. Also, was there always 2 fin brakes on the first drop. Before this year, I only remembered 1. Anyways, it may slow you down (a lot), but without the shuffling in every turn and bouncing on every drop, you keep the pace a hell of a lot better.

BGT or IOA?
CoasterFanatic replied to Coasters 4 ever's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ Then I used to live in the ghetto. // Temple Terrace is not a ghetto. Go a block over to Hillsborough if you want to see the REAL deal! -
^ There is a really good bonus segment on the "Greatest Rollercoaster Thrills" DVD. It is the one with the Hulk on the cover.

Dollywood is pretty adamant about the whole "no camera" thing. Speaking of cameras, I just went to Cedar Point on Wednesday and I must have heard them tell someone to put a camera away in every station. They have obviously been trained to NEVER allow cameras on the rides there and asking will not help you at all. Put them down as a never without prior arrangement park.

Afraid of coasters as a kid?
CoasterFanatic replied to Coasters 4 ever's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I always feared coasters because my brother used to force me on them before I was "ready". Eventhough I had already rode Corkscrew (Pavillion), Racer (Kennywood), and a few others, the first adult coaster that I really enjoyed was the Gemini at Cedar Point at around age 12. The coaster that most likely turned me into a nut was the Beast the next summer. -
TR: Cliff's Amusement Park May 8th
CoasterFanatic replied to coastermoosh's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ He speaks the truth! I went to Santa Fe in March and it was freakin' freezing. Glad to here you had a good time there Moosh. I didn't feel as bad passing up Cliff's when I went by a couple years ago, because they only had the Galaxy. -
