One that they won't do-

Quick Queue

 

One that they might do (I hope not)-

Abosolute Invertor

[Swornenemy]

Ok I got. Twisted Sisters. The ride will be based on Dee Snider and his band Twisted Sister. Nothing says yolo like Dee Snider.

[WFChris]

Pyro Colossus! SFMM loves their 'just add fire' formula!

[PeoplemoverMatt]

Xtreme Colossus is apparently a possibility.

[Superbatboy]

I think King Colossus has a nice ring to it

[Tmcdllr]

Twisted Titan?

King isn't one of the words on the list.

[Generic Name]

It'll be called Quick U-Turn.

 

You heard it here first folks.

[Gmaster562]

I find it just a little bit curious that the words "Dueling" and "Colossus" are so close to each other...

[KBrylczyk]

Dueling Colossus.

 

Why? Well, this is Six Flags, they've really got two types of ride names lately. Either thinly-veiled racism (Zumanjaro, Kingda Ka) or blatantly obvious (Iron Rattler, New Texas Giant).

[CoasterKings908]

Has anyone tried using the initials of known names associated with the park's history to get a result? For example, after remembering the park was using call backs to National Lampoon's Vacation in those photo props, my mom and I used Chevy Chase's initials and got "California Colossus."

[UrbanLegend]

I know it's short notice, but is anyone in SoCal willing to go to SFMM tomorrow? I bought found tickets and we have three people so far. I'm subsidizing a ticket plus FlashPass Gold, so it'll be $70. Let me know if you're interested. We're leaving from West Hollywood.

Maybe it's me but I never thought of Zoomanjaro or Kingda Ka as racist names. Not any more than El Toro, Sheikra, or Ninja

[willh51]

Dueling Colossus is my guess. Iron Colossus is apparently out.

 

Either that or SFMM has fooled us all, is going to demo the ride and we get Zero Colossus.

[Mega_Coaster_77]

I think the California Colossus sounds like a great name for the ride.

I hope they do the same for the Cyclone at SFNE and make it the Riverside Cyclone or New England Cyclone.

[CPSFMMCW]

My surprised they didn't put "Iron" for "i" to trick us. But if that's out, then i'm betting California Colossus. Actually not a half bad name.

[lk2500]

I'm surprised that nobody has noticed the obvious......

 

It will totally be called Yahoo Launch.

 

That way we will have YOLO coaster and YaLa coaster.

 

Boom!

It was a joke. You really need to stop posting to our forums.

[flaffstar99]

[tarheel1231]

Colossus Steel Coaster. Nuff said.

 

Also new for 2015! Fluffy, fluffy bunnies filled with medicine and goo!

[Her0ofLime]

Nevermind about what I posted earlier, Ultimate U-Turn is definintly going to be it.

Busch Gardens used to be called "The Dark Continent." Talk about racist!

[robbalvey]

If you are going to the park today for final rides on Colossus, be sure to tweet photos @themeparkreview so we can re-tweet them!

[Xmeister]

I hope when (if) the ride opens in it's new incarnation, they take the structure's lighting effects to a whole new level. Maybe LEDs or something. Hell if they figure out how to do projection the projection style effects like Disney does on Cinderella Castle, maybe they could make the structure look like it's wrapped in the logo of whichever sponsor is footing the bill for the ride that month!

In their defense, Africa is known as "The Dark Continent."
