Sounds like fun! Congrats guys! -
- Dark Knight at SFGAdv - Skull Mountain at SFGAdv - Kingda Ka at SFGAdv (I don't know about hate but a lot of people dislike it's short layout) - The Incredible Hulk at IOA (I hear a ton of negativity about this, but its in my top 5 steel coasters) That pretty much wraps up all of the major ones. There are a ton of smaller Pinfari, Arrow, and some companys I have not heard of coasters that I went on all the time before I started getting on bigger coasters. Everyone classifies these as rough, painful, and boring but I dont find any coasters rough out of all that I have been on (minus Rolling Thunder at SFGAdv and Wildcat at Hershey)

Oops. How did I miss that? -
Yes, they killed the ride. Thanks for that insight. Who told you that there was not going to be an explanation? How soon before Bizarro opened did the general public know the story behind the transformation of the ride? And they wrap the trains because that is what the advertisers want to pay for. Many advertisers have a problem with sponsoring garbage cans. I know that, ignore most of my little rant there. What I was trying to get to was that Six Flags should stop spending millions on coasters and start saving their money before they go bankrupt again and shut down.

Please read the last several pages to find your answer. I have read but I haven't been following since the very beginning so I'm a little confused on what exactly is going on banner wise. -

Is it known that there is a third banner? Or could the 4 digits be somewhere else? -
It looks like crap, I really hate what they are doing to Green Lantern. Just leave the damn thing green! Bizarro and Superman are enemies but Bizarro doesn't have red track parts so why does Green Lantern have to have a "battle" with Parallax? It's killing the ride, the least they can do is actually tell us what is happening before hand so we dont get confused and start to shun them for it. Not like it's gonna work, the GP seeing a huge yellow loop on "GREEN Lantern" is gonna be confused as hell. If anyone has seen the park map it shows the tops of the supports as white. This is more bizarre than Bizarro itself right now. I really hope what they are doing is going to be worth while because if not they really screwed themselves over this time. And Polly-O? Why?! Of all coasters Runaway Train? Why not just wrap garbage cans or hang up some banners at the food courts? It would make much more sence than wrapping a train car and hanging giant banners from the fort. With a combination of this and Green Lantern the way it's turning out, I'm very dissapointed with Great Adventure/

Funny, I believe I saw somewhere back a reference to the Big Dipper coaster and if you look at the darker dots its the big dipper. -

When I see all of this stuff about "The Flying Beast" I think of Raptor @ Gardaland. -

Not exactly "holding" brakes, but they look like the one's on Dare Devil Dive. Basically, slow you down to about 0.5 mph and you keep that speed until off the brakes.
