Pick N Mix Video #1 Contest Top 20!
SharkTums replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Since you put it out there Jarvis, let me give you a quick few things... - It almost didn't make the cut because of all of the effects!!!! We honestly thought you would have had one of the best had it not been for the 'cheesy premier effects'. I want you to understand that this is just our personal belief, and please don't take it has negative criticism, but it is one of those things...as you watch TV, how often do you see effects like that? Not just the Discovery channel roller coaster shows, but television in general. Sometimes an effect can enhance a clip, but when they are used so common, it kind of loses the effect. (Does that make sense!?!?) Again, you had one of the best videos, but sometimes you go over the top with effects. -
Pick N Mix Video #1 Contest Top 20!
SharkTums replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^It actually wasn't the music. It was just too many effects if I remember correctly. I have a list of notes that we made on each video if anyone has a question about why they did or didn't make the cut. In general here are some of my thoughts overall on all of the videos as to which ones made and did not make the cut: Negatives - too many effects - no real editing, just putting the pov to music - stuff that just didn't stand out - using the entire lift hill footage - bad, cutoff endings Positives - Creativity - using clips in ways we hadn't - NOT using the entire lift hill footage! - adding in funny bits -

Mitch Hawker's STEEL Coaster Poll!
SharkTums replied to CoasterFanatic's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I think I know Robb's reasoning, as it is mine as well! SFDL's S:RoS has pretty much always SUCKED for us!!! I think they changed something after the guy fell out because it has never given us rides like SFA's has! -
Also, let us know a bit about yourself...where you from, do you visit parks a lot, what kinds of coasters do you like. We have plenty of people here that aren't like the "norm" so I'm sure you'll be fine no matter what!

Derek's Year in Review
SharkTums replied to DerekRx's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Wow, that's pretty impressive! Glad to have been a part of some of it! (Especially the pie!) -
We have decided that we will choose TPR's top 20, and put those online for everyone to vote on. We would have liked to put all 40 but that would really have killed our bandwith! Plus a lot of the contest entries are VERY similar due to the footage so we will only choose the top 20. Thanks everyone, we should have some sort of update today!

Yeah I mean I left it open because it got kind of amusing!

Funny POV Video
SharkTums replied to Superdasher's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
We went in August, it was painful and stupid. The park was rundown and crappy. -
I don't think we'll make it to CP this year. Here is what we're thinking about: March: Florida April: Maybe SFoG or SFGAd May: HW & Beech Bend June: UK Trip July/August: Maybe SFoG November: Cruise December: Florida

The "Say Happy BDAY to your fellow users" Thread
SharkTums replied to robbalvey's topic in Random, Random, Random
With so many members now, I think it's become a bit silly to wish people happy birthday that really don't contribute. I'm going to close this thread, but would still like to encourage everyone to post a new thread for someone special's birthday. Thanks! -
sfog 2006, question for robb
SharkTums replied to SFOGdude25's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
We're not sure yet about getting to SFoG next year. Possibly, would be the word I would use at this point. As for POV requests, please ask for stuff like that in Ask Alvey, thanks! -
Patriot For Sale!
SharkTums replied to nissanskyline1235's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I guess there's a mouse rumor? Oh well, honestly, I think they're going more for the 'family' thing. Heck when we were there, there was a longer line for the kiddie coaster than the looper. Oh, and the fact that the first drop is BRUTAL!!!! -
Frefall at Magic Mountain, status?
SharkTums replied to SpectralN's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I thought I saw a car back on it the other day? Didn't look rehabbed though, but did look better than being in pieces under Scream! I would have a hard time believing they'd just take it out since they customized Riddler, with that stupid bunny hill that provides nothing and makes the rest of the ride kind of dumb, just for freefall! Who knows though!!! I also didn't think they'd actually put time and effort into putting a coaster on the mountain! I can take some pix tomorrow if you're interested. -
Revolution Rehabilitation?
SharkTums replied to Tmcdllr's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I wouldn't expect much of anything. From what I understand they CANNOT remove the OTSR's.
