  1. You...you realize NTAG is the original structure, yes? Edit - You can see the color difference where RMC added their new structure atop the existing.
  2. I think Cedar Fair had Johnny Rocket's on lockdown (I could be wrong). It'll be the world's largest Panda Express. Also no Starbucks, they're not classy enough. It'll be a blatant Starbucks ripoff. "SpaceDollars"
  3. Big talker over here. The general consensus that I've seen is that the conversions are great rides but Outlaw Run is still king of RMCs since it's a totally custom design.
  4. Universal made the Back To The Future films. Back To The Future: Part 2 had Jaws 19 as a hologram. Universal Orlando has hologram technology (Disaster).
  5. ^ That requires brains. A key element that SFMM is always lacking. I'm gonna love it when RMC announces they're turning Colossus into a kiddie coaster.
  6. Wrong. Goliath is more than 800 feet shorter than Titan. But good on you, I guess. As for the rest of your post, I don't even want to get into it. Edit - Had to add this one - maps.google.com for your consideration.
  7. ^ I understand your complaints, but you need to look at it from the perspective of the park, not as a repeat guest. Universal designed those rides to pump people through in large groups. For the main show being as large and long as it is, it would be very inconvenient for people to be stuck outdoors in the hot Florida summer longer thn they need to. Therefore they do the multiple preshows to get people indoors. And yes, I'm aware that they could enclose the queue areas, but would you rather stand in a line in the air conditioning or be somewhat entertained while in line with a preshow? Remember, Universal Orlando, just like all of the Orlando parks, thrive mostly from tourists. Their market isn't toward the people that will visit multiple times in one year, it's to the people who will visit once every few years or longer. If you haven't been to Universal in five years you wouldn't think the preshows are as annoying than when you visit constantly.
  8. In the most technical sense of the word possible. They stick to weekend-only operation for half the year. Knott's, Disney, Uni, etc all stay open year-round legitimately and yet still manage to get projects and maintenance done in a timely fashion. Imagine Six Flags' construction crews are akin to road construction while most other parks' construction crews are the ones that build a McDonald's overnight.
  9. ^^ Regardless of how cheesy Disaster Transport was, it's always sad to lose a toboggan coaster, especially the single car model like DT was. As for Windseeker, it'd be a good replacement if they went with a manufacturer that can produce dependable rides (Funtime StarFlyer).
  10. ^ That's from a fan site. Hardly something I would consider official. Like I said, provide something official, something concrete, then you can yap.
  11. ^ Disaster Transport did suck to lose, I'll give you that. SoB and go karts, though, nobody misses. Unless you're into BDSM.
  12. ^ Saw that, too. I'm not liking this new trend of removing multiple attractions for one new ride. But that's Six Flags for you.
  13. Regardless of who rides last, who can squeeze a bunch of last minute rides in today, whatever, I'm sure we can all agree on one thing - Caesar beat everyone.
  14. ^^ What this dude above me said. As for park hours, Disneyland tends to release hours about a month and a half in advance. Since you're going on October 3rd and 4th, they should be getting posted sometime this week.
  15. ^ Holy crap you mean structures designed to sway actually SWAY?!
  16. ^ It's so, so tempting, but not worth the extra 8 hours driving time on my car to come back to Vegas, pick up the girlfriend, then drive back to Magic Mountain.
  17. ^ Not surprised at all that they're only running one side. That's the Six Flags way!
  18. Fright Dome fires up ‘The Texas Chainsaw Massacre’ http://www.lasvegassun.com/blogs/kats-report/2014/aug/15/fright-dome-fires-texas-chainsaw-massacre/ http://www.frightdome.com/
  19. In their defense, Africa is known as "The Dark Continent." [youtu_be] [/youtu_be]
  20. Dueling Colossus. Why? Well, this is Six Flags, they've really got two types of ride names lately. Either thinly-veiled racism (Zumanjaro, Kingda Ka) or blatantly obvious (Iron Rattler, New Texas Giant).
  21. Excellent update for the orca tanks. The concept art reminds me of the aesthetic they were going for with SWSD's dolphin tank, just on a much larger scale. Can't wait to see the finished product!
  22. ^ Who's to say they haven't? Tell you what, if YOU can provide ME (or all of us, for that matter) with the official plans for BGW's 2015 coaster that says it's the exact same ride as SFDK's Superman, you can go ahead and make that statement. As far as I'm concerned, though, since there is no official word on that attraction yet, you're full of hot air.
