Beyond vertical drops
alpengeist04 replied to JFrombaugh's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
It might have to do with the speed El Toro builds up going around the turn into the first drop, whereas Fahrenheit is coming off the lift. -

Nice job on your first PTR. You picked a good time to go and hitting Gwazi early was also a smart move. -
...So you're the reason it's approaching $400 million so fast.

Lagoon amusement park
alpengeist04 replied to tanthonyam's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I was pleasantly surprised with the park when I visited last year. They have some good, not great, but good coasters. I would definitely try and ride Spider, Wicked, Wild Mouse, Roller Coaster, Jet Star 2, and Colossus. Oh and don't forget about Sonic Boom at Celebration Centre. It's definitely worth the little detour. -
^Didn't the Joker remove one of Harvey Dent's restraints while talking to him in the hospital? ...so I guess we can assume that Harvey did the rest and left before the Joker started with the explosions. Please correct me if I'm wrong, since I've only seen the movie once so far.

X-Files 3.8/5.0 I agree that this felt more like a 2 part TV episode than an actual movie, but it was still cool seeing Mulder and Skully together again. Overall I enjoyed it, but again it just didn't feel like it should have been on the big screen.

^It's well deserved. I think I'll go and see it again next week.

I'm definitely liking some of the casting ideas. Thumbs up.

Favorite orlando park and why

IOA is not only my favorite Orlando park, it's my overall favorite park period. -
^Come on, give the GP a little credit.

While I agree that topping The Dark Knight will be very very difficult, there's 300 million reason in the US alone to do another. As for the villains if there's another Batman, the two I see making the most sense would be Catwoman and the Riddler.

Wow, thanks for all the great pictures so far. My only concern with Steel Hawg was whether it would be rough or not, I'm glad to hear its not. -

The Dark Knight 4.8/5.0 Excellent movie. Definitely the best of any of the Batman movies, new or old. It's probably in my top 2 or 3 for the year, though I'm not sure if I like Wanted or The Dark Knight better. Still, it's a must see on the big screen!!!.
