I'm curious if in a few years they decided to have one train load frontwards and one train load backwards. It be cool if it was possible. As far as the launch going backwards, remember the train actually launched you backwards when your at the top heading back down and I never felt like I was pushed forward then. Like many others are saying its a force less launch. The only let down for me is now I won't get to see Mr. Freeze sitting up top saying something to the effect of "I'm about to send you on an awesome coaster" right before take off. At least, that's what he said in my head. I really want to make a trip out to SFOT now. Maybe we need a TPR event this summer to go along with your busy schedule.

Photo TR: Guatemalan and Costa Rican Parks!
Mrlittle replied to milst1's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
It's amazing how much a few details and theming can do a park. The parks look like fun. I wonder if Mundo Petapa was owned by Cedar Fair since it has Dinosaur Alive -
Mitch Hawker 2011 Wood Coaster Poll!
Mrlittle replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I think if I own a park, I would just have Intamin. It always seems like both there steel and wooden coasters are always in top ten lists. Congrats to El Toro. I can't wait till I get to ride ya on the New Hotness Tour. -
TPR Front Page RE-Design Contest!
Mrlittle replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
So far, I think I liked DKR's version of the new home page best. It looks clean and still gives a TPR website look to me. -
I'm not going to lie, the first time I ever rode Jaws I thought it was one of the best rides in the park. The last few times, it just never seem up to par to that first one. The skipper just did so awesome the first time. Jaws you will be missed. Maybe they will make a special edition of Jaws on Blu-ray with a pov of the ride like they did with Back to the Future.

I thought all of your photos looked great. Even the ones with the lens flare. -
I wonder how hard it will be in like say 15 years to upgrade the Forbidden Journey Ride System to a new movie or theme. Anyways I guess if you build it, and the customers (mainly families) will come. I personally have only been to Universal Hollywood once in my life and thought it was terrible to be honest. I only liked the Tram and Mummy. Ive been to Universal Orlando like 6 times in my life. My point is like many others are stating, there is probably still a large population who probably heads to Cali instead of Florida or vice versa. Still I just don't see Harry Potter lasting more then 15 years. I could be wrong.

Universal should keep the attraction like it is but instead of Jaws, bring in the Piranha. I mean it can be 3D, you can just have to change a few things, add a few effects. This is more of my joking idea. I doubt its going to be Transformers. As far as Harry Potter Expansion. Yes it makes sense to make it 2 days. But really more Harry??? I mean its not star wars where in 10 years, we will still be quoting the movie. Here is my really crazy idea. You take out Jaws and build a Fast and The Furious (using Test Track track) ride. It will be faster and more thrilling then Car land and Test Track. Hit Disney hard. Universal Studios can become the thrill side since Harry will probably take over IOA.

I voted against. Mainly because Harry Potter Wizarding World is awesome but it fits at IOA. Obviously its hurting Disney and doing everything right. However building another one (identical or not) would just lessen the one in IOA. Plus I don't think USH gets the numbers to put that kind of money into it. I could see them maybe building a shop and a ride based on Harry Potter. Why not try to jump on another franchise for the USH. I mean eventually IOA could be all Harry Potter.

Walt Disney World Epcot Discussion Thread
Mrlittle replied to SharkTums's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
These looks like a cool system. I'm sure it will take a few months to get it right. By summer, they will probably have it all parks. I'm sure Disney has come up with plans to keep people from sneaking in. But how many families do you know go to EPCOT and try to sneak in? -
Possible New Park in the Dallas Area
Mrlittle replied to AllenA07's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Instead of Dallas where Six Flags Over Texas has already been established as a great park. Why go about 250 miles to Houston, where oh I don't know there is no theme park. One of the largest cities in America and still no theme park since 2005. -
The Bryan and Adam Show Thread

I think I went there once, but many years ago. We had one day to do whatever we wanted and decided to go play putt putt. Little did we know. -
TPR's Orlando Halloween Trip of Awesomeness
Mrlittle replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I went to Orlando in late July this last summer and well now I want to go back. I never been to the Food and Wine at EPCOT. It looks like a lot of fun. I would love those wait times at Magic Kingdom. -

TPR 2012 Tour Flyers, Details & FAQ!
Mrlittle replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I just signed up for the New Hotness Tour. I hope I am in as it sounds like it was filling up fast. It was actually my dad who convinced me to stop being tight on the money and just go. I figure I can always skip a semester of school if I really needed to save. I'm excited because I never been on a TPR trip. -
TPR 2012 Tour Flyers, Details & FAQ!
Mrlittle replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I really want to go on the New Hotness Tour. I never been on a tour and they always look like a lot of fun. But sadly I just spent so much on school. Education < New Hotness Tour. Hopefully I can plan it out in the next day and still go, because I have a feeling its going to get filled fast. -
To be honest, I never really liked Avatar as a movie. However I believe a themed land on the animals (beasts) and perhaps some of the cool tech from the movie could really work. Especially for a theme park like Animal Kingdom. I doubt its really there answer for Harry Potter. I believe that is what the new Fantasyland is for. I guess only time will tell to see what they do with it. After they are done with Animal Kingdom, I think Disney Hollywood Studios could use a new ride. Replace the car stunt show.
