What I was thinking too. If it ends up resembling any sort of medium sized traditional woodie, no matter how different the layout or how much theming they add, the clueless GP will just think it's just Psyclone redux. Especially after the X/X2 redo. Hoping that spot isn't definite, unless they think completely outside of the box and build something like this: http://www.rcdb.com/ig215.htm Then the rumours of a Terminator-themed family woodie wouldn't be sounding so ludicrous. Only with better theming and sets than TDK I would hope if so. (always fun to speculate!)

^^ Sounds like they're taking a cue from SFDK, their haunted houses have always been upcharge since the first FF. The GP doesn't seem to have a problem paying the extra $10 (good for all houses), pretty standard price comparable to your local haunted houses. Never pay myself though, exact same houses every year but they usually include a free coupon for certain nights in the SP booklet.

I agree, just never understood the logic behind racist gay people. Or racist minorities for that matter. As gays and minorities in the US, we're totally discriminated and stereotyped our whole lives. To turn around and do the exact same thing to others for the exact same reason is beyond hypocritical. Personally I don't feel it's any worse with gays though, unfortunately racism is alive and well and comes in all colors/orientations. Hope this isn't considered too off topic, but you guys should really check out this new trailer for MILK (if for nothing else than a yummy gay James Franco ). Especially all you young'uns that take for granted what rights and protections we gays now have, great glimpse into when it wasn't always this way: http://filminfocus.com/focusfeatures/film/milk Frightening how the exact same hate and fear mongering tripe is still used against us to this day . . .

Ten coasters, one long day
speedracer replied to speedracer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
It's actually been rated very last for at least the last 8-9yrs in a row, no other craptacular woodie has been able to bump it. Hopefully comments like this will shame CF into finally doing what others should have been done years ago, put this POS out of our misery! Thanks for the comments guys! -
Good read and honest perspectives here on Northern California coasters written by a non-enthusiast, with a few special guest quotes: Ten coasters, one long day LMAO at the poor guy needing Excedrin after PGA!

Photo TR: Jahan's Awesome TPR-Midwest Trip Report!
speedracer replied to arrowfanman's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Excellent TR as always guy, always fun to read your perspectives. But this took me by surprise: You live in SoCal (practically Mexico!), and it took a trip to Ohio to experience your first bunuelo? Very sad! -
I try to keep hope that this is true, but then I hear of recent horror stories like this and this, and I start wondering if the ingrained hatred and treatment toward gays in this country, that just keeps getting passed on down, will ever change.

Great America Renames Top Gun
speedracer replied to Behemoth230's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ I agree. I think the whole point is how craptacular of a name this is and would be for any coaster, or really anything except for um, a flight deck? They no doubt had a list and a choice of hundreds of possible cool names, and this was their #1 pick? -
Great update here, goes with what I heard about The Little Mermaid being a whole lot bigger and much more elaborate than the original tiny dark ride shown in that video for the version planned for DLP: Also in that update are rumors of the Cars Drive-In diner put on the backburner for now so they don't have to slash ride budgets. Fair trade off and good to hear the new management understands what's more important. Keeping the attractions budget and quality up even if it means scaling back on the shops/restaurants.
