Team Thriller

How come when I read this title, the first thing I thought about was porn? That coaster looks amazing. I would ride it backwards also if it was in my backyard. You could imagine how intense those turns would be if they where unexpected. --James

They could call the coaster "Rapid Hillbilly" --James

Where you kidding saying Ninja is smoother than the Screamin Eagle? I know I rode them a few years back. But Ninja is down near the bottom of my rankings for coasters. It was very rough! Screamin Eagle was actually one of my favorites of that trip. --James

^ Big Mike hasn't told people yet, but Big Mike is coming to Germany to make Blue Fire be Big Mikes 900th. Okay, maybe not... But I wish. --James

All these boobs cupholders and Rampage ERT is making me miss the South, regardless of how much I hate the weather there. Great pictures Robb! --James

^ Thats what I thought. I was just making sure... --James

^ Do they have enough room for that even? I mean just look at Son of Beast's size. --James

The ride is named Cobra? Why would they name it that??? I NEED EXPLANATIONS NOW!!!!!!!!!!! --James

The Hangover This movie reminds me of something Sacha Baron Cohen would make. It had some very shocking parts in it, however, very funny. I laughed through most of the movie. Sadly, I think this is one of those movies that 50 percent like, 50 percent hate. Similar to Borat or Bruno. I do recommend this movie to anyone who wants a great few hours of laughter, but can handle some shocking sexual contents. 7/10 ------------------------------------------------- GI: Joe - Rise of the Cobra I figured this movie wasn't going to be that great. And have been raised in the military I can say this is one of the most unrealistic movies. (I would put it on par with Iron Eagle) However, the movie might have been corny and well, not that great, but it wasn't bad. I did find the ending to have dragged on a little to long. But I did think the fighting scenes where pretty good. 5/10 ------------------------------------------------- Something About Mary This could easily be one of the funniest and best comedies I've ever seen. Even though it came out awhile ago, I finally got around to watching it. All I can say is if you love comedies, this movie is a must. 8/10 ------------------------------------------------- French Kiss One thing I love to do is go over to a friends house and let him/her pick out a movie I've never heard and put it on. Of course she picked a chick flick, however, this one was actually pretty decent. Meg Ryan does a very good job acting IMO, and the humor was very clever. This movie was just pure fun. 7/10 ------------------------------------ I will not ever sit through G-Force. I'm sorry for anyone who had to... The movie I'm looking forward to the most is the new Alice and Wonderland movie starring Johnny Deep. My only complaint is Danny Elfman not doing the music. (So it seems). IMO, Elfmans music gives Tim Burtons movies the feel that he's famous for. --James

1.) Go on a TPR trip to Cedar Point and SFGAdv. 2.) Kidnap Megan Fox and um.... date her 3.) Murder Miley Cyrus And the Jonas Brothers so I will ever be known as a hero 4.) Sled down a huge mountain on a rocket sled. (Or something extreme like that. Such as skydiving or Bungee Jumping) 5.) And right before I die I would jump off the Grand Canyon holding my Ge Force cable so it will hopefully come to the after-life with me, and listening to Queen on my ipod so I can die to "Bohemian Rhapsody". --James

^ I actually kind of hate myself for laughing at it and then showing my brother. --James

This park is AM-AZ-ING! I will follow this till the end! Cannot wait for the next update. --James

Just to let everyone know. I was joking. I really do think this ride looks awesome. I was just pointing out to all those people who think the ride looks crap, that there are much worse things that could happen. Hope I didn't cause any stress. --James

People speak Spanish there I believe. That looks awesome. I've only been on the longest one in Bohemia, but this one blows it away. --James

Why did this picture make me laugh harder then I think I have all year? --James "I love Ikea" Flint

^ Jeff Johnson --James

I believe there is some song that goes to 55. I may be wrong though. Impressive nonetheless.

Here are my thoughts on this: The ride SUCKS! Seriously, even though I live 2,000 miles away from it, I would rather see a boomerang in it's place. Or better yet, a new sign for Anaconda! The layout, colors, name, over the should harness, and idea sucks! I will NOT be attending the opening even if I happened to live right next door. --James

^ I agree, I mean they have many Cyclone clones around the world, and many of them have some differences. For example: Some are larger, some are more banked around the curves..etc. Hell, even Twins sometimes have some differences. --James

Here is my updated list since I thought a little more about it and some of the parks has gotten better. (Or worse) 1.) SFMM 2.) WDW 3.) Europa Park 4.) Busch Gardens Europe 5.) Heide Park 6.) Disneyland / DLP 7.) Six Flags Discovery Kingdom 8.) Phantasialand 9.) USH 10.) Great America (Back when it was paramounts) --James "I bet this list will change when I get back to Florida in the next year" Flint

^ Thanks for all your comments Chris! I wish I could go back to California and we could meet up and go ride Screamer. And those days you come here I'll try seeing if I can go to Holiday or Europa. I just need to know the exact days. Update: Random Credit, death slides, and some culture I guess. Hey hey all, Just got back from a very random day down by the lake. There they have a fun playground with some killer equipment, boats, bikes, and food. But also not very far from the lake is a bazaar 'credit'. I say 'credit' since I do count it as a credit. Some people might not, but since it rolls and it coasts, I think it classifies. You all might now it as an Alpine Sled. Here in Germany they are EVERYWHERE! They are know though as Rodelbahns. Luckily I already had this credit since the line was about 2 hours. (Shock!) But the Killer Death Slide complex right next door was a huge shock for me. Last time I was here, they just had a worn down chairlift in it's place. Anywho, let's see how random a random day in Jolly Deutschland can get... --James Another random picture to end this random TR. I hope you enjoyed reading though. Till next time. They do go pretty fast and do lots of stunts though. They also have some races going on. I wonder what would happen if we suddenly closed that before that big full grown man up at the top comes down with his child? They also have one of these things. Great workout! If I screamed on a slide, it must have been insane. Sad thing is, I saw some four year olds go down before me without making a sound. Proves that I'm totally manly. This pictures doesn't show just how steep the slide is. It is to the point where you actually get some airtime going down. It is super steep slide that makes me feel excited... wtf is that? These however, made my day. A Death Slide Complex! Luckily I rode it a few years ago since the line was about 2 hours. (Not joking) This is a credit. Discuss! And you slide down through the forest as fast as you want. And the cable carries you far far away. You sit in this bobs and can control the speed with this handles. Enough of this randomness, let's look at this bazaar credit! EXCLUSIVE SHOT! Real Wieners! They also have a playground that has rock climbing walls and other stuff. Things where anyone can hurt themselves pretty bad It is so easy to spin and seems to keep its speed so well, you can get up to 2 rotations a second. It may not sound like much, but OMG it is. This thing is on crack! And you get pretty close to the ground... These are also found everywhere in Germany. Some are pretty fast and dangerous. Can anyone say Zipline! I heard 30,000 people come and watch bands play on this stage. I don't know which I find weirder, the fact 30,000 people would gather around this stage, or the fact that a band that could get that many people would even consider playing on this stage. You can rent these and ride all around the lake. If you find a huge hill to ride down, you might be able to count it as a credit. I dare you to pet it... I conquered the random rock! Take that random rock. (I need help, fast) I climbed the random rock I touched the random rock There is also this random rock nearby See, you look so manly jumping on the "Insanpleens" But with a much harder jump, you can get plenty of air. But this is why I'm here. The "Insanpleens". With a simple jump you can jump about 5 feet. This is what a stick looks like in Germany. Random enough for you? This is what a rock looks like in Germany... 038.MPG Here is a POV of the 'near vertical' death slide. It may not look like much, but it is freaking insane!

These are one of those parks I'll probably never get to visit. It is at least fun to see the pictures though. Thanks for posting them. --James

Balder was moved to America? Holy cow. You all must be lucky. --James

^ That reminds me. I'm also friends with the cousin of the drummer for the Foo Fighters. Even though I don't really listen to their music. It's still intresting. --James

^ That sums up the last 50 pages in about 8 seconds. Well done. --James
