  1. I'd say yes. But the alteration of which station Tatsu uses may also depend on the expected park attendance for the day. I'm at the park right now, and when I went on it, it was using only the right station instead of the left. Not much is going on it terms of construction, but I did see some storage containers where Mr Six's Dance Coaster will go. Roaring Rapids, Deja Vu, and Ninja are still down too. Ride Count: X2: 1x Terminator: 2x Collosus: 1x Goliath: 1x Scream!: 1x Goldrusher: 1x Tatsu: 1x Lines were decently long today. They were playing the Snickers Super Bowl commercial (the one with Betty White in it) in Terminator's outdoor queline. For me, that was the best commercial of the Super Bowl.
  2. What are crowds like around President's Day? I might be going tomorrow.
  3. I think those would look good on Ninja. Lots of footchoppers!
  4. Why would they remove something they just added? Only in RCT is it acceptable in a theme park to do some backwards thinking like that
  5. In Arrow's defense, they arent the only high maintenance rides, as I'm sure you know. Look at Kingda Ka and Top Thrill Dragster. They may be faster and taller, but that's beside the point. I would agree somewhat with you though. In my opinion, it all depends on what the Arrow's suspended coasters will be used for at every park they are at. With parks like SFMM and CP, having coasters of up to 15 and more, they could be used as a sort of stepping stone for the little ones so they grow used to bigger, faster, more thrilling coasters, no matter the age of the suspended coaster. For the time being, Ninja will still have reason for staying. Granted, the same could be said for BBW, which is why I have no idea why it would be removed other than as its been said before, that the park wanted something else (in which case, I ask on a side note, why didnt they just buy more land?)
  6. ^I think Ninja would be the last coaster SFMM would remove, if they removed any. BGE removing BBW was a bad idea, something SFMM wont probably repeat until Ninja is practically limping along its course from old age.
  7. ^^Amen to that. Though it could use an ungraded station with more scenery and a mural of a snake on the wall. Give it a more temple-ish feel.
  8. I've thought about Colossus's future myself, but I don't see it being removed for a few more decades. When it does happen, I would hope SFMM does consider a custom Intamin Woodie, or a GCI Racer like the one being installed at Efetling.
  9. ^And its only a matter of time before SFMM beats KBF in launching coasters.
  10. Ah. What I meant was something that can be considered more thrilling than Terminator but not on the level of thrills occupied by X2 and Tatsu. Something like a bigger version of the Pony Express I suppose. Guess we have to play the wait, guess and see game with SFMM again
  11. Only if its a bit more family friendly than any of B&Ms other designs. The Mountain would be a great place for both B&M and SF to test out a new roller coaster concept.
  12. I'm not speaking for them, but why would it be, when its operating just fine and they have other things, whatever they are, that require their full attention at the moment?
  13. ^^^I'm sorry. I just kinda get tired of it. I know no one is bashing SFMM or the ride itself, and that sending empty trains is a problem, but there's just no use complaining about it. SFMM has a lot more important things to do right now. Maybe they'll fix this issue along the way, and maybe not. Who knows.
  14. You guys really need to cut SFMM some slack. They spent a lot of money on the theming, money that they didnt have to spend at all and could have just slapped on some generic ride and we'd all complain about the lack of theming despite the fact that its a good ride still. So the ride operators send empty trains. What choice do they have? Their bosses say "Send a train every ___ seconds or so," and they have to. Its not like they can predict when the park will be empty and when it'll be bursting at the seems. And I'm sure SFMM isnt the only park that does this. So you can either enjoy the theming and the preshows, or you dont have to ride at all.
  15. Really? I mean, I know Deja Vu isnt worth more than one ride, but I love it! Its been very smooth for me every time I've been on it.
  16. A good dark ride or a well themed roller coaster (I dont care what type)
  17. I expect we'll soon see expansions for most of the Hurricane Harbor water-parks. Thing is, didnt they just add Bonzai Beach last year?
  18. ^I'll be sure to send you Scream when I'm done ripping it out and replacing it with something much better
  19. I said LIMs for lack of knowledge of what is used to launch Superman... Excuse me for making a simple mistake.
  20. ^^^^yes, but its highly unlikely and a bad idea. Remember, the transformation of X into X2 is what started it all. Had it not been as successful as it was, Bizarro wouldnt have happened. And with Terminator having audio and fire as well, its pointless to have a third ride with the same effects as two others. In reality its probable that Superman returns to the top of the tower, and the ride gets new trains and LIMs to make it far more reliable. Although, I do wonder if we could very well see the cars of Superman reach the top again as they once did.
  21. Here is Six Flags answer 2011 plans maybe? This is what they are going to do: They are going to tear it up (both sides) say it might be going to another park, but send it to a different one where local residents will complain about noise, slap on new magnetic brakes to silence said noise, and repaint it. It'll then be renamed Demon Drop: The Non-Cedar Point Version, and replace an old vintage carts ride.
  22. I have an idea. In this video, replace Shamu with the guy and Sea World with Disneyland Resort: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vz8AuKmItwM Disgusting. And I'll willing to bet he trying to impress his idiotic friends...
  23. If I'm gonna end up paying thousands to go, I better come back home with a T-Rex. Then 1 of 2 possible scenarios will happen: "Where is your homework?" "My T-Rex ate it." or "Mom, there's no school today." "Why?" "My T-Rex destroyed it when I was using my assissant principal's annoying little dog to play fetch with it."
  24. Saw Youth in Revolt last weekend. I only recommend it if you thought Superbad was funny (which I did) because its on that level of humor. There's only one movie this year I'm really looking forward to: Iron Man 2. 'Nuff said.
