  1. Yeah. The most scary part to me is that it's a private sector arms race at this time to see who can make the best programs the fastest, without thinking about the consequences. God only knows haw fast governments are moving on it. This will be ether a spectacular success, or failure catastrophic to all of us who have absolutely no say so. I'm not a fan of government regulation, but I feel the need for some kind of intervention. Everyone is so concerned with us vs. them social issues right now that most people I talk to have absolutely no idea this is all happening. (by design?) Those most influential with AI claim it will be immeasurably more significant than the industrial revolution, and it will happen much faster than anyone will see coming.
  2. It will remain a season long "Project" until it's announced as one of Six Flags' tallest fastest coasters for 2025. Get ready for actioned packed thrills on Mrs. Flash. People will continue to debate whether Mrs. Flash or Green Lantern Girl at Six Flags Charlotte is better.
  3. It's hard work, though. But, I'm sure you remember when small things like this brought a lot of excitement. We live four hours away and I told my wife about it. It's pretty likely it will draw us in all the way from St. Louis for an easy weekend trip. Eve will be four, so we're right in the wheelhouse.
  4. Graphic designers and writers are going to be some of the first to be fucked by this. People who ghost write and do similar small scale tech jobs on the side are going to be out of work before they know it. Tip of the iceberg.
  5. I'm satisfied that one day I will have lower my expectations for the ride experience instead of lowering my expectations for being able to ride it at all.
  6. Tell me you don't have a young kid without telling me you don't have a young kid.
  7. Tear it down and risk losing our Coaster Capital of Missouri status? We'll be right back here: I hope you don't work in marketing, Steve. You're trying to send us right into the Stone Age by dipping us back into the single digits. Get out.
  8. The only Six Flags parks I would keep are Great Adventure (reluctantly) and Georgia. Kentucky Kingdom really isn't that great. You're not missing anything by skipping it. Dump those and spend time at other parks. Or, break up the monotony and see a few other things along the way.
  9. It's Six Flags. They take the path of least resistance and don't care of such things. That, and/or it may have had something to do with infrastructure, land grading, and whatever other factors we don't know. Engineering vs. architecture. The architect makes it look beautiful, but the engineer has to make it work. Most parks seem to choose one or the other. Places like Disney or Universal have the scratch to make both work.
  10. I'll piggy back that with I bet it will take a fourth of the time to construct it than it did to restore the carousel at SFSTL.
  11. Yeah. Thank God the park isn't getting a reliable easy to maintain general public pleaser like a B&M.
  12. ^Same Especially since even the high end hotels aren't even maintained as well as they were pre-COVID.
  13. Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg has some real shithole looking hotels. Look for good ratings and prices that aren't insanely cheap.
  14. I'm pretty sure most of the rides are open throughout every operating day.
  15. One thing I'm looking forward to is more superhero themed areas at Cedar Fair parks. All of the different ride themes and very bright colored random new attraction areas are getting drab. I hate the fact that Cedar Fair doesn't cater to unsupervised teenagers more. Leave some room for more Justice League rides to vandalize. I think Maverick being renamed to The Flash would be perfect. Race for your Life Charlie Brown would be a perfect Aqua Girl addition. The newly refurbished area at King's Island could easily be renewed again with a DC thrill packed area, except for Adventure Express, which could easily be rethemed to Taz Girl's Rocky Adventure. Orion's drab colors could be changed to bright red, with the area being space themed to Super Girl's hideout. Patriot would be an easy Wonder Woman conversion. All of the river rapids rides could turn to Aqua Woman attractions. The thing I'm most looking forward to is all the updates we can expect every five to six years about restoring all of the areas the park let go in the meantime. Money will not need to be wasted on the bathrooms, and instead they can just renew the facades. Wise spending. (brought to your by Takis) If this merger doesn't go through, I'm going to be very upset. Cedar Fair parks are too corporate and generic. If we really get back into roller coasters with Eve, I'd like to hear more Taylor Swift music around the park. Advertisements with chemical hair gel displays and questionable toxic snack chips are easy to ignore. My beautiful daughter needs to know all about Skittles so we can share them as a family! Let's spice it up!
  16. PT is done and it's doing great. I don't really know how to take it easy, so I'll probably hurt it again.
  17. When a ride is that good, you don't get rid of it. I look forward to seeing my grandkids ride it someday.
  18. It's hard to believe it gave over one million riders with it's low capacity.
  19. No idea. Cedar Fair has never had unlimited FL on any of their new attractions, so it will be a learning experience...
