Back to the Future is History
BarryH replied to thefitness's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
During the past few month's of BTTF's life, the ride looked pretty bad. Paint was peeling in the queue, the screens in the DeLoreans had bad screens, etc. The whole ride was on its last legs and seemed to be held together with tape and gum. I knew it would close soon when I rode it a few months ago, but I didn't know when RIP day would be. I'm kind of sad to see it go, as I went to USF many years ago just because of this ride. Nostagila aside, I'm glad to see something new come to USF and replace a rickey-old ride. I hope it will be Law and Order: The Ride, I mean, the Simpsons. -
^I remember seeing their DLP video in the ECO 2002 video. I think there was another one about 2-3 years later. Here's the photos from the wild TPR trip: http://www.themeparkreview.com/photos/dlp/dlp.htm

If the Michael Jackson robot malfunctions, it'll be like "Westworld" all over again!

I think pdcr777 is asking where to post photos of theme parks. He has old and new pictures. pdcr777, you can post them on the Theme Parks board. Lots of people post photo trip reports.

I went to IHOP one morning and they had an omlete done in 5 minutes! I went to the bathroom and wrote up a postcard. Halfway through the 1st postcard, the server came out with the food!

I didn't think Blackpool had a mascot. I always associated the park with the big smileys on their front gate. Oh, and the cool woodies and Steeplechase too.

Next Godzilla movie: "Godzilla vs. the Michael Jackson Robot in Vegas." You know Michael Jackson will go after Godzilla's children. Sorry, that was pretty sick, I apologize.

As for food, I like the BBQ place around SheiKra. The name escapes me at the moment. You get great BBQ ribs and you get entertainment by watching SheiKra go round and round! -

Be thankful the UK doesn't have a Six Flags. You're missing out on bad food, ride ops that talk on their cellphones 24/7, and unthemed rides.

How about "TPR's ghetto parking lot carnival?" You can see: - Rides held together with duct tape and gum - "Robb's Ass-Slapping Slide" - "The Making of KidTums simulator ride" - "Mission: Wes" - "Everyone Loves BarryH" (oopps...)

Disney reads internet forums for info...

^B&M was supposed to build the Rock N Roller Coaster at Disney-MGM. B&M said for Disney to give them the land specs and they will design the coaster. Disney wanted lots more control. B&M said no and walk away from the project. The source is from a VIP tour guide at Universal Orlando. I heard it on a VIP tour. -

^No, I'm just giving the cold, hard facts, much like the time I was told Robb doesn't love me. -

Trust me, there will never be a B&M at a Disney park. -

The video isn't worse than WDW's vacation planning DVD. I watched a few minutes of it. Everything in it was so sugary sweet that I almost went into a diabetic coma! It was so happy that I couldn't take watching it anymore! -
"Unlikely replacements for USF's BTTF" Then I can do "Law & Order: The Ride!"

Personally, I think Elissa has nice hair.
