Welcome! This has been asked numerous times. Check out this thread for a ton of answers, especially Lou's post at the very end with lots of links: http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=35963 A search would have brought up a plethora of posts asking this. ~Matt

^ Yeah, but you're jaded. You've had your 360 crap out on you more than once. I've never had an issue with mine. I still like the 360 more, because of the game library. If I was in the market for a Blu-Ray player and a game system, I might lean towards the PS3. Might.

I've got the choice between IMAX at 9AM, or the regular showing at 9:30AM. I'm still going with the regular showing first. Some of the chase scenes were, as well as some of the stunt segments. It should be cool!

I'm waiting until next Sunday morning. I've found the theaters to be quieter then. So no SPOILERS!

^ I'm not sure I'd call it the last known American iconic company. What about Ford? Disney? -
The InBev/Busch Discussion Thread
mcjaco replied to milst1's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'm surprised they didn't mention the fact that Anheuser Busch has filed a suit against InBev's tactics. This is going to be ugly any way you slice it. -

No. Just no. Please use the search function. We already have an On-Ride photo thread. http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=19618&highlight=ride+photos ~Matt -

Techny Towers is still there. Although they've recently sold off, er I should say long term leased, almost all their land to developers. The fields are all gone, now it's all commercial districts and townhomes. -

Ah my old stompin' grounds. In fact I'll be there tonight for softball (Techny South). -
^ I loved my Dodge Neon Sport, until it hit the typical Dodge 80,000 mile transmission failure. That little gas tank could carry me almost 350 miles.

I'm going to move this to Ask Alvey. I think it fits better in there. ~Matt

That's fine. Let's get back to open minded Steel Hawg talk. -

And to note, this is the second time this has happened if I recall correctly. It's weird to know I was passing through there the day before this happened and much of I94 was closed due to flooding. -

I suggest you take your own suggestion. The bantron is warming up, and you we're already warned by PM for aggressiveness. -
Anyone live in or near Indianapolis?

Hey, there's nothing wrong with insurance! -
I don't want to ride Nemisis now!

Once again, using Search, will show you the light: Naked Nemesis Locked. -
Which is precisely why you really need to go to those two rides first. Get them out of the way, and then enjoy whoring out the rest of the park. Nice PTR, and some really nice pics!

That could be because the ride is over. -

mcjaco replied to Cameron's topic in Random, Random, Random
Except that was Shermer, IL. A little bit of Matt movie history: in the scene where Ferris shows up to pick up his girlfriend, I am running around in gym class behind him. I couldn't tell you which one, but I'm back there. Also, the house he runs through towards the end was my best friend's. His Dad is actually the one who yells, and you can briefly see my friend in the kitchen. -

The North Shore line was home of the Elctro-liner, a high speed streamlined articulated train that ran between Chicago and Milwaukee. One of them is out at the Illinois Railway Museum. Really quite cool. I'm not originally from Highland Park (grew up in Northbrook), but I always hated Highland Park. It really is quite boring and has no character. Cam, we must go ride together. There's a great leisurely ride in September that originates from Evanston. Abra and I try to ride it every year. -
There's a TPR page on Facebook. Try there first, and see where it might lead too.
