^Which one, the original or the remake? I'm kidding, you got it! Your turn. -

A movie director gets more than he bargained for when his filming location revolts against him, and even kidnaps his lead actress. -

Roller Coaster Rankings
VinTheAttendant replied to Jackdude101's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
I was interested in the first list because it did give some reasonable numbers as to how appealing various parks seem to be, and I figured you would continue to find ways to improve upon it (factoring in airtime, flat ride choices, etc.) before it becomes a very accurate representation of how desirable an amusement park should be. But looking at that wooden roller coaster list, I am very confused as to what your spreadsheet sees when making its decisions. I mean, Boulder Dash doesn't make the list, but Wildcat does? I still think you've got something interesting going on here and I'd love to see more of what you can do with Excel, but I think that last spreadsheet has a long way to go before it comes even close to accurate. -

Best GCI Woody
VinTheAttendant replied to I_am_Em0_0's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Not only is Thunderhead my favorite GCI, it's one of my favorite woodies too. I heard great things about it before my ride, but I was not expecting the ride to feel so out-of-control and surprisingly airtime heavy. I love Lightning Racers to death, and I had a great ride on Apocalypse, but Thunderhead is hands-down my favorite. -

100 Best Roller Coasters
VinTheAttendant replied to gisco's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
51 (Maybe 50, I can't tell which Revenge of the Mummy the list is referring to) I knew I wouldn't get anywhere near the highest score, but I did manage to check off at least one coaster per row -
Weirdest Things The 'GP' Have Said
VinTheAttendant replied to maliboomer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I was at Kings Dominion yesterday, and while waiting in line for I305, I happened to be in front of a kid who thought he was a know-it-all in everything from the coaster to politics. Here are some of my favorite things he said to the older gentleman he was with: "[i305] is the tallest coaster on the East Coast! Know what the tallest coaster in the world is? Kingda Ka!" "I want to sit on the left side, it's less scary. Wait.....which side goes fastest?" *Points to anti-rollbacks* "That's the backup lift. It's not as fast as the cable." *Points to first airtime hill* "That's where I'm going to black out!" And this one isn't theme park related, but I thought it deserved a mention. "Why did John F. Kennedy get to serve eight terms?" -

^I completely forgot that movie even existed, so no. Here's an alternate synopsis: A man with nothing to lose discovers that all of his problems can be solved (or caused) with an army of rodents. -

Good guess, but no. Here's a slight edit to the synopsis, and if no one gets it right by the end of the day, I'll post an alternate synopsis. A man's friends, family, career, and just about everything that goes with it slips away after finding himself some furry little friends. -
