Thundercats! There's no way Juno would have actually known about or remembered that show, but those around my age appreciated the reference. Juno would have worked better if it had took place in the mid 1990's, I'm sure Diablo would agree, but that would have increased the budget. Kids born around 1990 (Allison, am I right?) have no idea about Thundercats.

Quantum of Solace (Bond 22) Discussion Thread
RIP Psyclone replied to RIP Psyclone's topic in Random, Random, Random
I saw it opening night. One of the things I noticed is it wasn't very convincing that it picked up right where Casino Royale left off. That seemed a little forced. Having seen the reviews first, it was about what I had expected. I am glad it's doing well, though. -

Mark's Postcard Paradise
RIP Psyclone replied to thrillerman1's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
It was obviously before my time, however my dad told me how he rode it on its final day of operation in 1968. He described it was very rough and rickety. He's lucky to have such a rare credit, so it's too bad he's not an enthusiast. -
Weirdest Things The 'GP' Have Said

I've been on a few log flumes, and have never seen one with a turntable station. Well, it's not exactly a "log" flume, but Jet Stream at Magic Mountain does. -

Excellent work as always, Chuck. Thanks for going to Central Florida and having a good time--so we don't have to! -

During its last few years, Arrow started using a type of track that resembles Morgan track: Thanks to Joe Schwartz for the picture! -
From what I can tell and from what I have heard, El Toro was a fluke. Somehow it was approved, and somehow it was built. Thankfully it was! However, Magic Mountain nor any other Six Flags park is about to get an Intamin pre-fab woodie like El Toro anytime soon. Obviously if one SF park got one next year while MM got this GCI, that would be reason to be a little upset. Once you accept the fact it's not going to happen not only for MM but not for any other SF park, you can be happy about getting a GCI. This is going to be a great addition to the park. It's probably the best all around coaster with the broadest appeal this entire decade at the "Mountain"!

Yes, I think it would be cool if they ran Ninja backwards, whether it be an entire train or 3 or so cars of one train. As for Viper backwards...yes, Arrow/Vekoma trains and track are pretty much interchangable, and yes, technically Boomerang is a backwards looping coaster, but I think what it comes down to is the fact the train is always "forward" in the station. With Viper, it wouldn't be that way.

^^Wow, was that really necessary? I think a simple "no" would have sufficed. To answer your question, you click on someone, find and click on that. I don't know how effective it is, though. I vote YES for an '09 roadshow. Even if it's a rehash of the same parks. Obviously, new parks would be ideal, and I'm sure Big Mike would make them his main focus. Also, maybe posting more pics of women and showing us his credits of a different kind.
