Disney to acquire Marvel
alilstronger replied to ParkTrips's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I am very excited for this pairing honestly. It is still too early in the game to say what will be done or not. I think that Disney can now open a new set of parks and call them Marvel World instead of trying to incorporate them into Disney World and Disneyland. The Disney parks are classic and I think Disney knows this. I think they would be awesome with producing awesome Marvel movies. They have the money to produce action packed movies and this will definitely open up a whole new audience for Disney with boys and guys. Lately, it has seemed that Disney was focusing on girls and tweens with Hannah, Jonas, and people of the sort. I mean their name is on National Treasure 1 and 2 and they were pretty good movies. -
El Toro Back or Front?
alilstronger replied to cooliocody12's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I always find the back of almost every coaster more fun. Personally I want ALL of the first hill. By the time the back gets to the top the front is already partially down therefore they do get the entire first hill of a lot of coasters. Also the back gets whipped around by the front so that makes it a better ride for me. Especially on older wooden coasters. -

Best and Lamest Coaster "Ending"
alilstronger replied to Teddymonster's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Honestly, the worst to me are Kingda Ka and Storm Runner. Both of these coasters have so much power at the end of each ride that they could have made them a lot longer by adding more backed turns, hills, cork screws, loops, dives, cobra rolls...just anything let the cars release the power without slamming on the breaks. -

Mind Eraser - Six Flags America Most boomerangs that still use the old original over the shoulder restraints The Tobaggon (Carnival traveling coaster) -There is one set up as a permanent attraction at Ocean City MD at Trimpers

I have not been to a lot of parks but some of the woodies I have been on have had some awesome first drops. They are: -El Toro - Six Flags Great Adventure -The Wildcat - Hersheypark -Hercules - Dorney Park (Its not closed and Hydra is in its spot) For any coaster I get on I prefer the very back seat so I get all of the first hill. I think that becasue by the time the back is up to the top the front is already partly down the hill not going full speed.

Has a waterslide ever scared you?
alilstronger replied to Mind Eraser's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Summit Plummit at Blizzard Beach in Disney World Most of the slides on Pipeline Peak at Kings Dominion. But to me that is what makes them fun. I like the added adrenaline rush it gives me when I am scared of a ride. -

The most rare coaster credits
alilstronger replied to Stitch's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I would consider a coaster rare that was only open for a very short period of time like Flashback or is rarely open. Also I would consider a coaster rare if there are only 1 or a few of its kinda in the world, like Leap The Dips (supposedly oldest coaster still running). -

Most memorable coaster moment of 2008?
alilstronger replied to TheHulk's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Being able to go to Six Flags Great Adventure for the first time and getting on all them coasters they have for the first time. I have never been on such awesome coasters! But the number one memory is getting on Kingda Ka for the first time and sitting in the front row!!!!! -
Cypress Gardens Closing...
alilstronger replied to CoasterJunkie's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Its sad. I hate when I see a park close or rather drasticly change their atmosphere like get rid of all the rides. That parked looked so beautiful and I have only heard nice things about it. Too bad I will never be able to experience it. -

I like boomerang coasters, especially the one at Six Flags America (Two Face: The Flip Side) because you face other people.
