If you go to jimhillmedi.com he has a article where he states that from talking to people who should know that Tim Burton wants to end the makeover over concerns that Nightmare Before X-mas is becoming too commercialized. Here is a link to the article. http://jimhillmedia.com/article.php?id=1653

I dont know if you go to Jim Hill's web site but he is reporting it is possible that this could be the last year for The Haunted Holiday Mansion overlay at DL and TDL. I was wondering if you have on your dvds's or not on the dvd's but in your archives POV footage of the complete ride?? And do you think there is any truth to this rumor.

I would also agree that you never go to SFGAM for fright fest on a Saturday, and what even worse this year is that the opening weekend of Fright Fest is also supposed to have some type of cheeerleading contests in SouthWest Terr. I would go on a friday night!!!! While the park isnt open as long it usually isnt that busy and the rides even less as alot of people hit a few rides and then go to the haunted house/train ride etc. The big thinh to do on Firday if you can is be at the park by 400p/430pm and be at the park early. Due to work i guess you have a late arving crowd so you can get alot done the first two hours with little to no waits if you plan it right and its great to end the day in the Southwest Terr. as they haver little halloween stuff going on so it is usually dead. The have Supersitution back this year for the simulato ride, havea Haunted Shack 3d movie in the pictorium and some type of wall-thru fallen giant attraction which are all new this year.

Im glad you you are offering a white t-shirt option. Maybe its just me but i dont like to wear black t-shirts when its very warm/sunny in a park as they attract heat, so the white t-shirt will be very nice to wear on those type of days.

Are you going to include any US parks or ride footage from new rides like Hades??

This guy said nothing other than a vague reference to "major problems" . If one wants to be taken seriously then you need to be much more detailed than that.

I liked the t-shirt you guys came up with, and i have a question?? Have you thought of making up sweatshirts?? Out here in the midwest are days of wearing t-shirts are numbered so i was wondering if you have thought about this for us cold weather people?

I dont know what the park hours are going to be in the Dells on Friday, this time of year they tend to have small staffs, and at Mt Olympus you may find several coaster's closed. Sunday is not a good day to be going to SFGAM. But if you do go get there by 900am to get in early for the mad dash for Raging Bull or in line for Superman. This sunday is the last day of the regular season and Coke is having a employee party at the park which will likely result in very large crowds from past experience.

I would also agree with Jackl Rabbit over Thunderbolt ar Keenywood. Its is a classic ride that has stood the ets of time and weathered it well IMHO.

My last coaster was yesterday 9/5/05 Viper at SFGAM.

Just got home from Six Flags Great America

When i went to Kennywood i had not heard alot about Jack Rabbit, but the airtime on the ride was awesome!!! I would also agree that Avalanche jad great airtime and was a excellant ride, i just hope it is maintained well.

During Fright Fest at SFGAM we have gotten very light snow/flurries and all the coasters/rides stayed open and ran well, i dont know how hard it would have to snow before they would close the rides???

This is interesting video of flood damage from another site, i will provide the link/info. Six Flags New Orleans Under Water Video of Six Flags New Orleans under water. Go to http://www.2theadvocate.com/ At the right side of the page towards the bottom is a list of videos. Click on the "East New Orleans flyover" As you will see, the park is flooded. Not certain as to the extent of the damage. http://www.2theadvocate.com/

I was made aware of this site from westcoaster and i think e-mail because i had ordered some of your dvd's. I initially heard about you because some" morons" on rrc were whining about your on-ride video's and how you were breaking park rules.

I agree that these polls are very subjectiive but it was nice too see that Hades scored as high as it did, glad too see.

Are you going to release a multi disc set like last year with Europe on one disc and American parks on another??

Thanks for the reply, i havent heard muuch about about the below listed parks, since they are close to hime and i may visit some day could you offer a little highlights about them. Santa's Village Safariland Kiddieland Jeepers

I read in another post thatr you visited 7 parks this past Saturday and got ni 12 credits. What 7 parks did you visit on Sat.???

So what are the 7 parks that you hit on Saturday?????

I just read that you arent going to State Fair in Wisc., so i dont know which way you are going to SFGAM. But if you are nearby, they just opened your favorite Rest. in Greenfield Wisc. which is a suburb of Milw. It is located just south of 76th and Layton if you are interested.

Shouldnt Batman the Ride at Six Flags Great America be on the list??? It was given a award at this year's Ace Coastercon.

Nice photo's. im really looking forweard to my first visit in about 10 days!!

If a guy has a pacemaker he should realize he has a pre- existing medical condition.

Thanks for the info, it is greatly appreciated!!
