It's not so much the individual colors for me, but the combination of purple and blue that I'm not crazy about. Now if they where to add a third color like on Scream, maybe that would be better.

Seriously, not liking the move at all. And that's coming from someone who doesn't even drink. I really hope they can find a buyer for the parks very soon.

Oh well. Overall, I'm very happy with Miami's season. Here's hoping this upcoming off-season is as productive as last years.

I was at the park the other day and the pictures on the internet really don't do Manta justice. It's just a really cool looking coaster and that's without the theming in place yet. I just can't wait to see this coaster take form in the coming months. As for the "MCBR", I hope they have it on as light as Kraken's was the other day. The train was just flying through it.

I was just at Seaworld two days ago, so the last coaster was Kraken. As for 2009, it will probably be Dueling Dragons or The Hulk in a week or two.

14/20. I'm always in the 70% to 80% range with these quizzes.

I believe that the "double take" and "treble clef" alone will make this a fun ride. Thanks for the update, Adam. ...Much appreciated.

It's especially important to have when you don't use the break the whole way down. I really enjoyed my two rides on it last year and I did count it as a credit.

How 'bout them Dolphins!!!! From 1-15 to 11-5, baby.

Congrats to the guys over at Hard Rock Park. Not only did they run their park into the ground, but they also killed this project before it even got going. That takes talent. Seriously, sad to hear this project has been put on hold indefinitely.

My top 3 would have to be IronMan, The Dark Knight, and Wanted. ...In no particular order. Other favorites would be Indy 4, Eagle Eye, Quantum of Solace, The Incredible Hulk, Get Smart, Hancock, Cloverfield, and Tropic Thunder.

Latest rumor has Rachel Weisz possibly being cast as the next villain. Being a huge fan, I would love to see her as Catwoman. ...If they were to do a Catwoman that is.

I think it has to do with the fact that track only started to go up on HRRR, while Manta's track is already done. While I doubt this thread will reach 100 pages, I'm sure discussions will pick up now that the construction is starting to get good.

Heck, if the Dolphins win their last two, they have the #3 seed. Who would have thought that after they started 0-2 and then 2-4. Of course I'm not expecting miracles here, being in contention for the playoffs in our first year with the "trifecta" is enough for me. Though winning a playoff game would be nice too.

I have to give the nod to Volcano in what I consider a lackluster group of coasters. I just can't put Dominator first when it's missing B&M's best inversion. ...a zero-g roll.

The treble clef looks really cool heading up the lift hill on Ice. The red track really stands out against the buildings. Yet, when you're in USF it's really not that noticeable. I really don't think this will be an eyesore like some have mentioned. ...Or should I say complained about on other forums.

I was at the park about two hours ago and they were working on the next piece of track after the upward helix. ...Looks really cool in person. I'm also really liking the look of the drop into the fire house. May can't get here soon enough.

I give it 5 minutes before it turns into a Cedar Fair versus Six Flags debate.

I'll probably end up seeing X-Men, Star Trek, Angels & Demons, Terminator, Transformers 2, 2012, and Harry Potter. What can I say, I like going to the movies. Though I'm not sure any these will be as good as The Dark Knight, IronMan, or Wanted. ...I guess we'll see next summer.

Well, I watched IronMan and The Dark Knight again on DVD. These two movies are so good, but I'm still not sure which one I like more. Which leads me to ask, what were everyone's favorite movies in 2008? I'm still deciding between IronMan, The Dark Knight, and Wanted.

90 degrees!!!!! Well, not quite. ...But it still looks great. Thanks for posting the pictures.

Great job so far on the TR. It looks like your dad has the Robb Alvey face down pat in that one picture.

My guesses are: 1.Whoopi Goldberg 2.Matthew Broderick 3.Sarah Jessica Parker Though I'm not sure if any of them are considered big name actors anymore.

Let's hope that's the only thing it has in common with Manhattan Express. I'm really looking forward to seeing the track in person next week, it definitely looks good so far from the pictures.

Not really loving the blue and purple combination at the moment. Though I am very happy to see Medusa finally get a makeover.
