Please can we skip ahead to May?

Looking at that element I think that the age of forceless B & M's may just have ended.

[PCW_Nut]

^Truly hope you're right.

 

I still find the helix to be somewhat forceful on Behemoth and hope that this "barrel roll" will provide as much force as it looks like it will.

[Cyber.Fiber]

This just keeps getting better... And Better...

[asimowalk]

New pictures on Facebook... These two are the most interesting:

 

[sammmmmy]

The trench looks MUCH better than it did in the animation!

[JuanSe_Colombia]

Oh God, I think I just had an orgasm looking at those pics!

[djw44]

They should tunnel the bottom of the drop, that would be intense.

[DougMJr]

^Or add some sort of close by water feature, as it is called leviathan...

 

Although I doubt a tunnel or water feature would make much difference as you'll be traveling so fast it would only last a fraction of a second.

[djw44]

I always enjoyed the Tunnel on Steel Force. I feel like it adds to the intensity of the drop hearing the train roar through the tunnel. Plus it hides the sensation of blacking out, good for the GP .

[Dragon Khan]

Tunnel might be short, but at this speed, imagine the headchopper effect !

That would be one intense headchopper effect. Just think about all the GP thinking "Oh God, I am going to get decapitated!".

[PCW_Nut]

As cool as a tunnel may be, I wouldn't want to tarnish the view of that drop.

 

I am still holding out for some decent themeing within the plaza area around the ride. Perhaps some sort of fountain statue deal.

I always laugh when I look at that brake run because it looks a lot like a B&M Floorless being built.

[odene497]

So, the brake run will lead right into the station? I was under the impression that that area would be the transfer area, and the station was right at the base of the lift.

You need to improve your impressions

 

You're correct - it's brake run, transfer, station.

[PCW_Nut]

Isn't it midcourse brake, McDonald's drive through, brake run, rest stop, transfer, station?

Don't forget the car wash.

[Schotcher]

Pretty sure there was a Holiday Inn packed somewhere in there.

[XYZ]

No, I think it was a Motel 6

[rollin_n_coastin]

Seriously, you guys need to stop giving away all the surprises

[Dom497]

Anyone else think it would be a cool idea that if Wonderland were to bring back the show, actual guests who visited the park during that day could be in the show??? The employees with the cameras at the front of the park could say "Get your picture taken and you could be in tonight's Starlight Spectacular show!!!". And before the show starts, someone can put some of the pictures from the day into the show. It would probably increase the # of pictures taken at the front entrance and I'm sure people would love to see their faces on Wonder Mountain.

 

Cool idea???

[Cyber.Fiber]

That could be a great idea... Instead of filling the mountain with those small colored cubes, you could replace the face of each one with a picture... As the mountain ripples, the pictures would get larger for a few seconds...

 

It would also be interesting if they programmed the projection to be some sort of multimedia / social networking display that took people's tweets / mms / facebook and projected them on the face of the mountain as well. That way people could contribute their own pictures and (positive) thoughts of their day to the show...

^Never thought of it that way......but when i think about it, that would look pretty cool too.

Disney does this nightly and its actually incredibly stupid in my opinion. Its often difficult to make out the picture and even then, I don't care at all of seeing pictures of other people.
