  1. The park has changed their profile pic across various socials with the caption, "Notice anything different…? Things are changing at Valleyfair."
  2. I am now taking bets as to whether the new theme for this or I305 is announced first.
  3. I was distracted by cookies and have to drink warm Gatorade as a result.
  4. Are we sure the park is done with the ride? I know it got removed from the map, but couldn't that just as easily be in reference to how long they expect the thing to be SBNO?
  5. This now piece of history has been added to my collection.
  6. On Thursday night, my leg got trapped under 200 lbs of falling material at work. Nothing was broken on me and my leg is just sore with some minor swelling (now gone). I still took the rest of the shift off to go put my leg up. If I wasn't wearing steel toed-shoes, I likely would have lost something.
  7. Fish rarely bite when it's most convenient. You'll lose a lot of fish if you wait until you finish shitting out all those milk and cookies.
  8. So I'm planning a trip to Southern California for mid-late July and would like some advice on the matter. This would be my first time in the area. The basic itinerary at the moment is as follows: Friday: Fly to LA, see a Dodgers game, drive to Six Flags Magic Mountain Saturday/Sunday: SFMM. The plan is to get Flash Pass the Saturday only. Monday: Universal Studios Hollywood Tuesday/Wednesday: Knotts Berry Farm Thursday-Sunday: Disneyland Resort (2 full at Disneyland, 1.5 at DCA with the other half going to an Angels game) Monday: Fly home to Minneapolis. I know LAX can be a bitch to deal with, but right now flying there is $300 cheaper than SNA. I also like the flight times better at LAX. Rental car prices are about the same. Is it still worth it to fly into SNA, or is there another airport to look into? For Sunday night, I was looking into a hotel closer to Universal, but the best options don’t have a lot of parking available. Is it still worth it to stay closer, or should I stay the extra night near SFMM? For KBF, I'm thinking about staying at their onsite hotel for the convenience. I also am looking at the Quality Inn about a half mile north of the park. Is the convenience worth the extra cost? For Disney, I’m looking into their partner hotel deals. As long as it has a shuttle to the park, I’ll consider it. Any that are NOT recommended? For Time/Money, not really planning on doing any other Hollywood touristy things this trip. Only Line-Skip service I’ll look into is Flash Pass for the SFMM Saturday only due to budget. More park-specific questions will be posted in their respective threads closer to the trip. Any other tips would be appreciated.
  9. I'll laugh if any attractions at Canada's Wonderland get the DC branding. The park was used as a filming location for Amazon's The Boys--which largely satirizes DC.
  10. ^I'd almost say Fiesta Texas needs her more, Bert. They have an actual Poltergeist.
  11. They'd have to beat boost mode on Tornado at Bakken. Which I don't think anyone* would have a problem with. *Except whiny thoosies who bemoan that it's "no longer a launch."
  12. They'd say similar if Boss got RMC'd. "They just painted the rails," is a common one I've seen from other RMC announcements.
  13. When those licensing deals happened could be a big factor. It takes a lot of time to design and create these attractions. Every IP used this year is one that existed prior to 2022. M3GAN was a breakout hit this year and thus all licensing deals were completed by that point. Also, if it was a house, you'd need about 14-18 people to play M3GAN. The character has the body of a 12 year old and an uncanny valley face. Or if it was a scare zone, the character would be mobbed constantly with people trying to take pictures with them. And again, appearance of a 12 year old girl. The film was also marketed for a younger demographic--one the park may not want at the event.
  14. I've heard that rumor when the rumor was a Mack Power Splash. The MPS is larger than the Intamin Ultra Surf in such a way that would necessitate the removal of Joker. Odds are that's where the rumor came from.
