  1. How about instead of Wild Mouse, Madison Mouse?
  2. Roller Coaster at the New York, New York Hotel and Casino At my park SFGAm, I like some of the new houses and Love at First Fright is awesome. Especially if you see the Adult show.
  3. I would've guessed Discovery Kingdom considering their Height/Space limits
  4. My Review of the Six Flags 2018 Announcements [youtu_be] [/youtu_be]
  5. I'm more excited what the Queue Line looks like cause SFM has some good queue lines especially Superman and Joker and Medusa was so much fun. And they still show that "Why so serious" video in the Dark Knight queue line.
  6. Something I've thought about WAY too much, But here ya go: If I could Re-Do Walt Disney World Here's what I would've done differently: Put Alien Encounter in Hollywood Studios Build Winnie The Pooh in the England section of EPCOT ++ Not Build Animal Kingdom Put It's Tough To Be A Bug where Body Wars was Put Dinosaur in Hollywood Studios Add a Timon & Pumbaa Dark Ride to Hollywood Studios (Use some of the Killimanjaro Safari budget)(That + Festival of Lion King would create a Lion King Land) Put Kali River Rapids in the Canada Section of EPCOT Put Primeval Whirl and Triceratop Spin in Hollywood Studios but themed to Little Mermaid (Little Mermaid Land, Something for girls) Put Expedition Everest in Japan (With a Different theme) Put Avatarland in Hollywood Studios Retheme Great Movie Ride into "Great Walt Disney Ride" with every Animated film Walt Disney had a Part in from Snow White to Jungle Book Retheme Disney Quest to a Star Wars/Marvel building Add a Disney Princess Indoor Mini Golf Course to Disney Springs Add a Disney Character Wax Museum to Disney Springs Never Updated Hall Of Presidents and replace it with a Hall of Disney Characters Use the Mission Space Budget and build a Sinbad Attraction in Morocco in EPCOT ++ Keeping Horizons and Original Journey
  7. That is a cool "Page not Found" Page
  8. Would be funny if The troika gets renamed Cyborg
  9. Is this the Chance Freestyle? If it is, Good to see them selling stuff
  10. My favorite/least favorite of the Six Flags names this year.
  11. What is with Six Flags adding Giant Discoveries to parks that have Frisbee's and not removing them. Six Flags Discovery Kingdom, La Ronde, and Now this.
  12. But their troika is called Harley Quinn Spinsanity. Is that being removed?
  13. Reminds me of Goliath at SFGAm. Interesting Colors.
  14. While similar, the Roars weren't clones. The SFA Roar was actually longer by 177 feet. But what park wouldn't want an RMC? Cloned or not? I don't know if Dollywood wants another RMC
  15. For my Park SFGAm Kids Rides Pay Rides Drop Box Slides (Been on them before but they scare me)
  16. Actually according to the TEA (I know I know) Merlin parks (Excluding Legolands) seem OK-- 2016 v 2015 Gardaland- Up 1.1% Alton Towers- Up 2.9% Thorpe- FLAT Chessington- Up 1.8% Heide Park- Up 1% Alton dropped 25% in 2015 IIRC so marginal improvements probably aren't going to help much. Probably an improvement financially considering how they went up when 4+ rides were SBNO and 0 added that year:

  18. This may not have been a rhetorical question, but I think I can answer this. At least Dragons has some logic to it from a financial standpoint. Harry Potter is Universal's main cash cow, so wanting to put a dark ride there makes some sense. However, Heide Park is trying to be a thrill park. It makes no sense for a thrill park to literally let their most iconic roller coaster rot. Say what you will about Six Flags, but at least they know what they are. Six Flags seems to understand that they do need to maintain their best coasters (if minimally). Heck, even Six Flags America, the butt of every Six Flags joke, still keeps their wood coasters in descent shape. Remember a few years ago when there was a scare that Six Flags would buy Busch Parks? Given Merlin's reputation, I am not sure which chain would be worse to end up in... Well let's look at all the closed attractions at Busch Gardens Tampa - Theater by Zagora Cafe - Gwazi - Terrace Restaurant 1/2 the Time - Bird Gardens Gift Shop - Tidal Wave - Curiosity Caverns - Rhino Rally - Questor Building But look on the bright side of SeaWorld/Busch Gardens/Merlin; They went public so rich people got richer and they pass the budget cuts down to the consumer. And not to add fuel to the fire, How are the Legoland parks lately?
  19. I remember seeing Aqua Spin down a lot in the last two years (the park has an app that lets you see wait times and ride closures which I often check in on when I'm bored) and it was still closed for winter maintenance when I visited the park. Since Merlin killed Ripsaw at Alton last year I guess it was only a matter of time. It's really a shame too since the area with all the flat rides is one of the nicer spots in the park. At least it's themed cohesively with a decent atmosphere. Also to defend Merlin, ALOT of Parks have gotten rid of Huss Rides. Six Flags, Cedar Fair have gotten rid of Frisbee's and Top Spins When Six Flags can maintain their parks/rides better than Merlin... That's all I'm gonna say (COUGH Gwazi COUGH)
  20. Kiddie Coaster at Playland Rye Really good in the last row. More forceful than you'd think and way better than their Mouse or Volare.
  21. Of course they could have, if they wanted to. Why do you continue to ask really DUMB questions? Let's play along, Would fit in the former Cobra spot at La Ronde
  22. Huss rides are great! With SFGA closing there top spin King Kaos, it's gotta go somewhere, and with Fling going bye bye.... just a thought... or is it? The only place I see King Chaos going is the scrapyard.
