gax Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 Just a bit of fun for the closed season. I did search for similar topics but didn't find anything, so sorry if I missed one! Just wondering what people think the best and worst themed B&Ms are. From what I've seen most B&Ms are really nicely themed compared to other coasters, but which is the best and which is awful?? I'd say that the best was probably either Nemesis at Alton Towers, or Black Mamba at Phantasialand. And the worst I'd say is probably Mantis at Ceder Point. It looks nice but doesn't actually seem to be very well themed.
Canobie Fan Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 I have been on something like 34 B&Ms... Its hard to pick just 1 best and 1 worst... So ill make a list. Best - Apollo's Chariot,Kumba,Nemesis,Top Gun - The Jet Coaster, and LaRondes Vampire Crappy B&Ms - All 3 Superman - Ultimate Flights,Hydra: The Revenge, and maybe Great Bear
CP_RULES Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 Best: -Black Mamba -Sheikra -Nemesis -Batman La Fuga -Katun -Hulk -Dueling Dragons -Kraken Worst: -Scream! -Insane Speed
Electerik Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 I would say.... Best: Alpengeist Worst: Riddler's Revenge. Hell, it's not even in the Gotham City section of the park!
WillMontu Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 Best: Nemesis Dueling Dragons Hulk Montu Oblivion Worst: Scream! (I've never been on it, but it's built over a freaking parking lot!)
BeemerBoy Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 If all you're talking about is themes, then it's simple... Best- Nemesis, BM, Hulk, DD, Kraken, Montu, Alpy, and the Batman clones. Worst - all the rest.
SharkTums Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 I have been on something like 34 B&Ms... Its hard to pick just 1 best and 1 worst... So ill make a list. Best - Apollo's Chariot,Kumba,Nemesis,Top Gun - The Jet Coaster, and LaRondes Vampire Crappy B&Ms - All 3 Superman - Ultimate Flights,Hydra: The Revenge, and maybe Great Bear I really hope you misread the title!!! BEST THEMED!!!! I would hardly describe Apollo as themed (although it does have that cool circus tent!!!!)
JuanSe_Colombia Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 **¡¡¡...Best...!!!** Hulk, Dueling Dragons, Kraken, Superman Atarccion de acero, Tatsu, Montu, Kumba, Nitro. Worts- Scream, Dominator
Bob O Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 I would vote for Alpenquist as the best themed B&M coaster I have riiden, and Superman Ultimate Flight.
arrowfanman Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 Tatsu McStation hardly counts as "themeing"! I would have to say of the few B&M's I've been on... Best: Dueling Dragons Worst: Scream -Jahan
Scaparri Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 Of the ones I've been on: Best: Dueling Dragons, by far Worst: Raptor
Sir Clinksalot Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 I'm just going off of ones I have seen: Best: Dueling Dragons (mostly for the queue, once on the ride it's just standard stuff) Hulk (Awesome queue, cool water stuff) Scream (It's supposed to be themed to a parking lot where people get run over right??? Worst: Medusa SFMW
thomas2 Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 For me the best themed are: Black Mamba Superman - La Atraccion de Acero (I know the coaster itself is far from being themed but the waiting area and station are very cool) Batman - La Fuga Worst: Scream! SFMW's Medusa
Virdu_ Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 Dueling Dragons, Black Mamba and Batman: La Fuga, maybe Hulk, Superman: La Atracción de Acero, Nemesis or Alpengeist are well themed, but by far the best are DD, BM and B:LF.
gax Posted January 22, 2007 Author Posted January 22, 2007 Scream! I forgot about that! I read that it was a 'parking lot coaster' on here but i didnt quite understand what it meant until i saw a picture, and it just looks stupid, they could have at least got rid of the white lines!
IceDragon Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 best: Nemesis, Nemesis Inferno... Oblivion?... it has sweet videos! worst: Air. nothing can beat it
rollermonkey Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 I actually kind of like Silver Star's theme. The video walls and the race cars actually tie together with the ride fairly well. Katun's Mayan / Stargate theme is cool, too. Bad? Diavalo has zero theme.
thomas2 Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 ^Yeah that Mercedes-Benz hall is very cool. I never bothered to wait there.
BeemerBoy Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 I actually kind of like Silver Star's theme. The video walls and the race cars actually tie together with the ride fairly well. Yeah, I was thinking about that one too. I always did like the F1 tie in. And the color combo of silver/blue gets high marks from me, as well. Still, compared to the rest, I'd have to lean towards "honorable mention" for this one.
rollermonkey Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 ^I just didn't want to jump on the Black Mamba/Nemesis/Dueling Dragons bandwagon.
Jogumpie Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 Well... I have only been on one B&M coaster and that was the best themed ride: Black Mamba. For worst I would chose Scream!, although the ride itself may be very good.
socalMAN123 Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 Best: Hulk, Dueling Dragons, B:TR Worst: Scream! ---Brent
coasterguy618 Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 Best: Black Mamba, Dueling Dragons, WildFire, Montu Worst: Medusa (SFGADV), Nitro, Scream!
Canobie Fan Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 I really hope you misread the title!!! BEST THEMED!!!! I would hardly describe Apollo as themed (although it does have that cool circus tent!!!!) oops yeah.. im SMRT.
