Six Flags Great Adventure (SFGAdv) Discussion Thread

Anyway, this ride better have Ryan Reynolds checking all the restraints! Or should I just imagine that?

 

That would be my girlfriends dream come true!

 

 

 

 

Awww....

[Sir Clinksalot]

^ Yeah, it wouldn't take more than that to convince my wife to go on the NE trip next year even though she couldn't ride anything. She would like some ERT (Exclusive Reynolds Time) I'm sure. .

Finally Green Lantern getting some props, hope they go all out with the theming, he's always been my favorite DC character.

[Gambit]

^^^ Definitely! Great to see some Green lantern love! Cannot wait for the movie. Now I wish they'd give us a GL attraction here in CA.

Same here. I've loved that character since I was a kid.

I really like the look of the logo on the lead car. I'm excited for the ride, and I hope the theming is pulled off well.

[RoCo]

If the ladies (and the gents who lean that way) get Ryan Reynolds checking the restraints, then I want Scarlett to BE my restraint. Seems fair, right?

 

Seriously, though I'll miss GASM, this is a pretty sweet replacement. If they'd move B:TR over there, they'd really have one sweet DC/B&M land going.

[rider-x]

looks almost the same as Chang at Kentucky Kingdom.

[MayTheGForceBeWithYou]

^Because it IS Chang. We've known this news for WEEKS!

[HCLcoasters]

^Sarcasm

[Calicoasters]

Months even...

[jdcoffeytime]

Pretty Sweet for them!

[Zack44]

Wow, Green Lantern, like everyone didn't see that coming from a a mile awa- wait TUNNELS?! TWO TUNNELS?!

 

Also, is it me, or does the green color of the track in the concept art/video remind anyone else of the green shade that Dorney Park used for Hydra: The Revenge? Anyway, I'm super excited for this and I won't be surprised if they have announcement posters all over the park by Fright Fest.

[vacoaster09]

^ I thought the same thing bout the color. It reminds me of Hydra's green.... which I like

[jarmor]

I wonder if they will use the black green lantern...

[Zack44]

^No, they mention in the press release that it will be themed after Hal Jordan, the white one, the main Green Lantern in the comic books and the one that Ryan Reynolds is playing in the upcoming film.

[SLUSHIE]

So whats the deal? Is this moving from another park or something?

 

Just weird that a park is building a style of coater that was popular over a decade ago, and I don't think one has been built since then either.

 

Oh, it's Chang. Makes sense.

[CHILLERLC1]

I'm thankful. The encore to Shockwave is coming! Finally the standup coaster is returning to SFGADV. I don't have to drive 10 hours again to get it, just 40 minutes. It's a great ride.

[Six Flags Enthuseast]

I like the theme! For once, a 'not as major as Superman, Batman, or their respective villans' DC Comics character gets into the limelight at a SF park. I've never ridden Chang, so I'll finally get to see if it was as good as it was awarded when it opened.

Personally, I think 5 B&Ms are too much, but this looks like a nice addition to SFGav! I

That's like saying 5 amazing quality coasters are too much. SFGADV is privileged to have 5 coasters from the best coaster manufacturer out there.

I didn't know Six Flags Great Adventure had five coasters from GCI... I need to get back there fast, as it must've all changed since I was there two years ago!

What planet are you from?

 

Great Adventure is seriously laking in the flats department (at least in comparison to coasters) and many of us are still hoping that we get a few new flats next year along with the GL coaster.
