Duff Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Flight Deck. A flight deck is the large flat surface of an aircraft carrier where jets take-off and land. Dumb. Runners-up: Pepsi Max Big One. It's trying too hard. "Max" and "Big" in the same name is overkill. Scream! It's like the Six Flags execs were completely out of unique name ideas when they settled on that. Insane Speed. It hits 53 mph. Last time I checked, that's not insane--it's actually fairly average.

singforfood Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I always thought Pepsi Max Big One was the most God awful name for a ride. Not only is it awkward and unyielding to pronounce, but... the product placement. Fury 325 is my new 2nd place winner (loser?). I pretty sure I'm the only one who doesn't hate Scream as a ride title. As generic as it sounds, it's the only ride on RCDB with that name (others include the word but in different versions... CA Screamin, Screamer, Scream Machine, etc).

StuckInSD Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 ^^ Don't forget Screamin' Demon and Screamin' Eagle. Runaway Mountain: So... does the mountain have legs or something? iSpeed: iThink this iName thing is iRate. Hades 360: The ride did more of a 180 in the opposite direction than a 360. Laff Track: Straight out of a dictionary for all things Willy Wonka. Oh wait, that came from Hershey. Tickler: The extremely creepy face plastered all over the ride doesn't help.

ian1808 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I still think it's gotta be Corkscrew. The Cedar Point and Valleyfair one. It's like naming a ride Loop or Drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Tickler is a god awful name. Me an my friend joke that we're waiting for "The Molester" to come out. Even worse still, pretty sure there was an incident involving a molester on a similar coaster (forget where) . As for horrible ride names, I'd have to say anything named "coaster"... Really?. Think of a better name! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generic Name Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Dizzy Love and Whirling Passion would be a GREAT name for a spinning coaster. Instead it's given to a knock-off SLC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 I still think it's gotta be Corkscrew. The Cedar Point and Valleyfair one. It's like naming a ride Loop or Drop. I would add, any of them in the world can count. Sad, really. The 'corkscrew' drawing, both sides of the name is actually a nice, different touch. But wait - wasn't it in some...movie???

Batman & Robin the Chiller actually made sense. It was two coasters, and it was to go with the Batman & Robin movie that came out in 1997. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VF15 Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 I don't think that Fury 325 is truly a bad name, but it certainly isn't very creative. It sounds like something you'd name a coaster in RCT3. Also, I'm not a big fan of ride names that are really over used (Batman, Goliath, Corkscrew, Boomerang, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generic Name Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Rides that have names that rhyme can get silly. Ragin' Cajun, Steamin' Demon, and Fujin Raijin come to mind. Steamin' Demon sounds like a bad night after Taco Bell too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thrillseeker4552 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 ^I agree. The rides look AWESOME. The names...not so much. "Dizzy Love and Whirling Passion" -- Discoveryland, China "Heaven on Earth" -- Xixiakou China, China "Wang Zhong Wang" -- Tianjin Shuishang Park, China Yes, these are all knock-off SLCs!

gerstlaueringvar Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I don't understand why those terrible Chinese parks even give their rides English names. If they can't think of something nice, don't give English names to make the parks even cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
