Canada's Wonderland Discussion Thread
CPSFMMCW replied to BDG's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Makes me wonder if this was a park decision or a CF decision. If it was indeed CF, then it makes me wonder how much longer Shockwave has to live. Of course, its very possible that they only removed it for the land that its on, and since Shockwave is on a thin sliver of land, Shockwave might not be doomed at all. -

They did spend $145 million this year. It's under investor relations on the cedar fair website. 2014 was 145 million! Oh gosh! wow, makes me wonder how much it'll be for 2015. It'd help of course if we knew what the other cedar fair parks were adding next year... -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
CPSFMMCW replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Here's what I gotta say: I hope for a new coaster if it were to be added next year, however if Mantis were leaving, a new coaster probably wouldn't go in its spot till 2016 at the latest. So if thats the case, then I hope that they re-profile it and make it a lot better. The reason I say this is because I'm going next year and I don't want to lose a credit unless I'm getting a new one in its place But it'll probably be the re profile. Call me crazy, but I was thinking the same thing. Having new sit-down trains, a new theme/name, a new color scheme AND having the second half indoors with special effects would be very marketable. Definitely a heck of a lot better than some of the coasters parks are putting in nowadays... Totally could be done in my opinion, but I still don't think it will. Everything after the MCBR could easily be put indoors and is low to the ground so a high ugly building wouldn't be necessary. Plus, the second half is in an area of the park that is hardly visible, so the building wouldn't have to be beautiful. But we all know CP doesn't mind ugly buildings anyways *cough*Disaster Transport*cough*. I love this idea! I hope it happens! It probably won't though, but I can dream! -

wait so the Grimm reaper came over and went into the station. Is that mean the ride is gonna get shut down/relocated or sit down trains? -

I say, is it too much to ask to get both in one year? -

I wonder if bryan was trying to throw us off when he said 'dark.' That might've been a red herring, or it could be true! And I love Tony's list so much!! -

Photo TR: Mini New Hotness/East Coast Trip
CPSFMMCW replied to cfc's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Man, lightning run really looks fantastic. I hope there are more of them in the future! looks like a real winner! Whenever I'm in that area, I'll make sure to stop by Kentucky Kingdom. And as for T3, I wish them the best of luck for making an SLC rideable! I hope they succeed, but I have my doubts! -

^ And what about, instead, a launched flyer? Wishful thinking! If you mean a B&M Flyer, yes, they are far away. Batwing is a couple hours up the road. of course I mean B&M! Batwing was fun, but no where near as good. A ride along the lines of Starry Sky Ripper or Tatsu would be fabulous here. -

a flyer at KD would be a dream come true. I would love that almost more than a hyper, cuz we got a hyper at BGW. And there isn't a B&M flyer till you get to SFOG or SFGAdv. So a flyer would be epic, a hyper would be epic, and I would be fine with a wing, as long as it has a wing over drop and a near miss. -

ignoring the height, they're both completely different ride experiences, and they'd both be amazing rides. They'd compliment eachother. It makes a lot of sense. Will it happen though? Probably not, but I wish it would! -

they do need a new front entrance.I'll say that. Whatever the coaster may be, I'm gonna say it'll come with a new front entrance, whether the coaster actually involves it or not. -

My Official Final Prediction: Mantis conversion and flat/dark ride. If dark ride, then it'd be the WMG version. Which I guess you could technically also call a coaster. Mantis will be renamed King James. Lets see how correct this ends up being!!
