What if Disney bought Magic Mountain form Six Flags and jazzed it up with Marvel and other attractions. Turn the Hurricane Harbor into a Disney water park? Maybe develop another theme park adjacent to it? Of course Prices would skyrocket.

Yup, I once drove to Six Flags from Las Vegas. Halfway there I make a call and find out they are closed. So we make a detour to KBF instead.

Terminator seemed to have way too many employees just hanging around. They had two employees just to tell people to use the locker. I didn't see any pre-show while entering. Maybe it's up to the employees to slack off and don't do a pre-show so they could just all stand around doing nothing. They all seem to be happy employees, however.

I was on it a couple days ago and I thought my thighs were going to break. I could see someone getting seriously hurt something isn't done about it.

Disney always wanted to expand in California. DCA was an initial bust for them, but now they are doing better. I bet Disney starts working on another Supersize parking structure so they can claim land from the parking area to expand DCA.

So how will the bankruptcy today play in new rides and attractions?

I would get a Six Flag season pass for one of their parks if I lived out East and was traveling to SFMM. More bang for the buck. You can use them at other Six Flags parks.

It could be because it's sorta enclosed. Other coasters you could possibly puke over the side and not get it in the train.

Many may not remember it, but I loved the Enterprise when I was a kid. I wish they would bring it back.

When I put "SFMM" in google search the first hit is this link: http://www.themeparkinsider.com/news/response.cfm?ID=2705 "SFMM, Worst Ever!" I was hoping it would be this thread. Anyone know how to do a Google Bomb?

Why is l-o-c-k-e-r-s code for "lockers" on here?

I'll like them to turn it into a IndyCar speed track. 8 Seater Indy car on track making a loop around MM at 200 MPH.

Thanks for the info. Also, can't wait to get out to Astroworld. Never been there.

I have been patiently waiting for the Metro trains to finish their refurbishment. Any day now.

A co-worker went on Sunday and thought Terminator was just okay. She wasn't impressed with it, since it didn't have loops/corkscrews and was just "boring". Oh well, can't please everyone.

Some valid points. There's all ready a carousel in a prime location not too far from there. A tower might be nice, but I think a tower would work better on a hill like on Samurai Summit. As for a water ride, I would like them to overhual Log Jammer with some serious theming. The more I think about it, just expand HH and be done with it.

Again, leave it in one area or the other. All you are going to get are confused fans of the ride wondering why they can ride it one month and than have to pay an additional fee to ride it another month.

Sorry, I didn't realize I was using shorthand internet speak. I will try harder not to in the future.

Good points and good post. The forum needs more like you.

It's not to "pull in people". It would something to get the heart rate up/blood flowing in anticipation. But, if it has to be a water ride. Just leave it in Hurricane Harbor. If you let people ride it in the off season at SFMM (in the cold); why would they waste money on a "bland" water park, just to ride it again at HH?

Six Flags needs a ride there where people looking from outside the gate/fence are salivating over. I don't think this water ride does that. Especially, what makes you so sure SFMM would run it during the HH off-season? Roarin' Rapids was closed for the Winter. I don't think SFMM wants to operate a ride that nobody wants to get on because it's too cold. If they do it, just leave it in HH permanently and be done with it.

That's one of the last great prime real estates in the park. I think it would be a waste to put a ride there that doesn't have mass appeal. Six Flags needs to come up with something new and special. Deluge isn't it.

IMO, the assigned seating gives people who are not as aggressive with demanding a certain seat a chance to experience a seat they would like, but are afraid to ask or were intimidated by more aggressive thrill seekers. Some people are just too polite for their own good.

A ride like this would be perfect for the area... Call it Mountain Xpress. The title plays off the Magic 'Mountain' and 'X'2 perfectly.

Looks like someone gets it.
