I saw Casino Royale the other day. I'd give it a 5/10. I really liked the start, up until the first girl died. Then I just lost interest, the story was uninteresting and there was very little to the film as a whole. But, Daniel Craig is about as beautiful as you can get.

How Old Are You & What Was Your 1st Coaster?
Fry replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
My first coaster was Twin Looper at American Adventure. I was about 8 or 9. It was certainly before I was 10. -
[KNEX] Goliath (Walibi World)
Fry replied to Jogumpie's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
That looks amazing. I wish I could be bothered to do something like that And Goliath is such a good coaster, I really, really, really enjoyed it . -
I found SWO quite disappointing. Kraken was a let-down, and then so was the rest of the park. Unless you love fish that is. USF is amazing. It's worth it just for The Mummy, Jaws and Men in Black.

The Faculty? "I get a lot of money for you, and that makes you MY bitch."

Islands is just stunning. And, add the Studios (and Mummy) to that, and you have a great combination. After that, Animal Kingdom is brilliant. It lacks some rides, (although I loved Everest and Dinosaur), but the themeing is out of this World. Then, Busch Gardens. The atmosphere wasn't as good as I expected, but Sheikra... Then, MGM, for Tower. And MK for Splash Mountain. Epcot and Sea World were both disappointing, but, Epcot has Mission Space, so it's better.

2nd time not such a charm?
Fry replied to canada's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'm with you. Vampire was amazing when I first rode it (1999?), it was so much fun, we whored the walk-on it had. I rode it again, um, 2004 I think, and it was rough, slow and dull. Vekoma touched it though, so... -
I got 777 for my real name. 251,000 for the screen name

Gwazi was horrible in July, and hasn't it been re-tracked? Try again.. Other then that, the only other modern woodie I've been on is Stampida, which was fine, so. Oh, actually, there was Robin Hood which was a little 'ow' on some parts, but, hey, it's a Vekoma! Oh, forgot Pegasus at Efteling. Which is a good thing... it was horrible. But, that wasn't due to its horrendous roughness, just bad design. But, that's what you get for involving RCCA. They just need a little more maintenance loving in some cases.

One bathroom, and then a toilet and sink... elsewhere. How many TVs do you have?

Valhalla at Blackpool Pleasure Beach
Fry replied to niiicolaaah's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I guess I'm the only one who thinks Valhalla is an abomination to dark rides then -
With one very sore hand now I managed to get 5.75. How anyone can get like, 2 seconds is just beyond belief.

Favorite type of B&M Coaster?
Fry replied to MummyAW's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ The Zero G was the biggest let down for me I mean, it was fun, but Khan's Zero G is the most intense inversion I've ever done, and Kumba's just wasn't as good, but I was expecting it to be. Shame really... -
Oh God, I didn't think of that. Maybe not actually . Give me some padding there, and I would!

Favorite type of B&M Coaster?
Fry replied to MummyAW's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
It's between Sit Downs and Dive Machines for me. However, I'd have to say that Sit Downs are my favourites. I mean, Sheikra and Oblivion are brilliant, but, Hulk and Dragon Khan are a better pair. I wasn't a big fan of Kumba, it was a bit of a let-down, but the other two are truely fantastic. I've never liked Inverts that much, the forces seem odd on them, and the views are awful, Floorlesses are slightly dull. Flyers are a cool concept, but not my favourite. I've never been on a B&M Stand-up or Hyper, but neither look like they'd blow me away. So, Sit Downs for me! -
2007 Plans for Parks to Visit
Fry replied to carolinacaniac's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I don't really like Blackpool. I went this April and that'll do me for sometime I might go if I'm like, a few miles out or something to get on Traumie again (which I loved), but, no, I don't like it enough to really bother with the expense when I could be getting credits . And I'm only about 45 minutes from Drayton. So, while it's not the nicest, it seems rude to not hit up Apocolypse. -
El Condor at Walibi World. Two words: First SLC.

I learnt my drama teacher's a dog. An absolute dog. Other then that, nothing. I couldn't do the Maths work and English I never learn anything in. I couldn't bring myself to going to History or the other English lesson, and so played Tetris for a few hours. It was good.

2007 Plans for Parks to Visit
Fry replied to carolinacaniac's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
New parks planned at the moment are: Heide Park Europa Park Holiday Park Parc Asterix Southend Camelot Flamingoland Re-visits- Alton Thorpe Chessington Port Aventura Disneyland Paris Drayton Manor Maybes- Lightwater Valley Phantasialand Tibidabo (spelling?) And I'm sure a few others will come up. -
I so would. It looks really fun, refreshing, odd, awkward... But, fun. Intamin Hypers in the buff would be amazing!

What Was The Last Coaster You Rode?
Fry replied to SharkTums's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Rita at Alton Towers on the 5th November. Last ride of the season, last riders of the season, and 12th time that day. Pretty sweet way to end the year... -
2006 Coaster Season Stats
Fry replied to DerekRx's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I had a great year. 58 credits, almost doubling the count, many new parks, 31 trips, almost one a week. I got to go to some of my most wanted parks, ride some really good coasters and only 3 coasters that were on my top ten at the start of the year are still there. So, considering restraints with age etc., it was really good. The highlight was certainly my two weeks in Florida.
