  1. Maybe a Kings Dominion with 50 Seats? But personally I see an Indoor Drop Tower with theming like Mystery Castle at Phantasialand if they ever build a drop tower.
  2. They must sell great Merchandise cause I haven't heard anything of that ride getting re-themed.
  3. It might cost a little less as the dark ride is built already. WBMW built a brand new dark ride in a building. Plus "Maybe" Six Flags might sign a contract to build like 5 dark rides and might get a package deal. If this becomes Justice League, I'll bet the SFFT one will be next.
  4. Well, they were trying to re-create the aura of a really crappy tourist trap, and they succeeded all too well. Maybe, but the tourist trap area doesn't work with an Animal themed park.
  5. Goliath at SFMM/ Titan at SFOT Add a few more camelback hills before/after the brakes
  6. I'd either theme it to Looney Tunes (Like SFOT) or Make another Monster Mansion clone.
  7. That's what I don't like about this regime. Full Throttle, Superman, King Cobra, Boomerang, Green Lantern (both), and Apocalypse have all opened late.
  8. Huss Giant Jumps. That was one of the best flats at Canada's Wonderland that I went on. I'd take Sledge Hammer over Leviathan and Windseeker.
  9. Add a camelback hill instead of a Splashdown for Sheikra
  10. Isn't Anaconda getting repainted?
  11. Fire Megacoaster
  12. Tie between the Log Flume at Kiddieland, IL (Defunct), Penguin's Blizzard River at Kentucky Kingdom (TBD) and Monster Mansion at Six Flags Over Georgia
  13. Disney has slipped a few times with Theming (Dino Rama for example) and I'm not saying Six Flags is any better with theming. In my mind, there is no perfect theme park company and I'm fine with that.
  14. I didn't realize that. Thanks for letting me know. I thought he was just a jerk. The following year we had Claude from B&M, and he said he always wants to be the first on his new rides. Maybe that's why B&M rides are getting tamer, Claude has to be in his 40s and probably can't handle major G's anymore
  15. If they were to remove the stage area, that could work. Otherwise it would be a pretty small dark ride. If they stick with a Red Baron theme, they could theme the vicinity to a small flight deck with the Red Baron flat ride right next to it. The queue for the dark ride could be right where Gr8 Sk8 is. The only issue I could see with this would be wanting to keep a show venue. I can't imagine that would be a big deal, but even if it was, I'm sure finding a replacement space would not be too much of a hassle. Didn't someone who works at Knott's mention earlier that he heard rumblings of Gr8 Sk8 leaving? That sounds all too perfect for speculation of a small dark ride. A venue no longer being used for haunt that has a descent amount of space, an out-of-place ride to possibly get axed to open up queue space, a possible Red Baron theme could tie-in with the plane ride directly next to it.....at this point, I would be surprised if this was all a coincidence and a dark ride wasn't happening. They could move Gr8 Sk8 elsewhere like in front of Jaguar OR by Pony Express
  16. Replace everything after the lift on the Dark Knight Coaster with Inversions and airtime drops.
  17. Their attendance is only about 1.4- 1.5 a year. I wouldn't expect big from them unless it's Gerstlauer or RMC.
  18. If they were to remove the stage area, that could work. Otherwise it would be a pretty small dark ride. Theme it to the Great Pumpkin. You can ride in your "Red Baron Rocket Plane" and try to capture the most pumpkins with your "Blanket Blaster" and "If" you don't get enough the ride ends short and if you get enough points, You get to meet the Great Pumpkin. Just an idea.
  19. Any rumors of what they're adding next year? I would put money on either a waterpark expansion, a Splash Battle, or more general improvements.
  20. Stephen Lynch (Seriously his song is really funny)
  21. I hated Steel Hawg though that could be because the operators pushed the OTSR's down on me after I was locked. I'm a tall dude and the ride hurt.
  22. A little more padding might be nice, but personally I'd hate to see them get different trains. I love that you aren't stapled into your seat like you are on more modern coasters, and that wouldn't be worth trading in just for a more open, comfy train. Yes, new trains would be perfect! I remember at one Coastermania meeting (we used to have them in the afternoon not anymore), Ron Toomer was the guest and he said I'd never ride one of the coasters I designed. That says it all. May he rest in peace. New Chance Morgan trains or 2 across B&M Trains?
  23. Robb brought this up in my last "Warm Question" debate where all recent B&M's post 2007 are forceless. That is debatable obviously so let's decide. Do you like B&M's Rough and Forceful (Iron Wolf, Vortex, Afterburn, Batman, Etc.) or Smooth and Forceless (Intimidator 232, Krake, X-Flight, Gatekeeper, Leviathan, Etc.) Also if you think any Post 2007 B&M's are forceful, Please comment as well.
