coasterbill Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 Does anybody see a B&M coming this year. No
djackson Posted August 17, 2016 Author Posted August 17, 2016 Yeah it probably won't happen for a while.
SFOG1991 Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 Like I said, it happened in 2012 after a 6 year hiatus so really anything is possible but it certain isn't something we should expect. Also, comparing to 2012, Six Flags is doing so many clones and RMC reprofiles I don't think they are really looking for other options at the moment, but you never know!
Henry M Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 Clones. Clones everywhere. Of every thing. So...many...clones (shivering in corner) ...they're coming!!!
djackson Posted August 17, 2016 Author Posted August 17, 2016 I would love to see a revival of Batman: the ride clones or even better the beginning of original b&m inverts at at the parks that don't have them in the chain.
SFOG1991 Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 ^It's cool to imagine if every Six Flags park had a B&M invert with the Batman name and theme but all different, custom layouts.
djackson Posted August 17, 2016 Author Posted August 17, 2016 ^It's cool to imagine if every Six Flags park had a B&M invert with the Batman name and theme but all different, custom layouts. The only problem is some parks already have batman themed rides so it would be redundant.

Just dreaming here. that would've been great but I don't think six flags was trying to spend that much money. What would really be cool if the slc's were custom.

Then check out the Chinese Knock-Off SLC
djackson Posted August 17, 2016 Author Posted August 17, 2016 The one with the out of place airtime hill and crawl to the break run.
djackson Posted August 18, 2016 Author Posted August 18, 2016 I just hope for at least one surprise. Roar East, 4Ds, Justice League, updated kids areas to be expected. Just give something fresh like a woodie, T-Rex, custom RMC, Mack dive thingy, I don't care The custom Rmc is probably the most likely.
coasterkid124 Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 ^^Actually, Roar East would be a surprise. Six Flags spending any money on that park, other than a roll of duct tape to repair the restraint molding, would be astonishing.

The only reason I wouldn't say that is a surprise is because so many people are speculating it.
coasterkid124 Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 ^Screamscape is a lot of people? I know you want to be enthusiastic about the possibility of your home park getting a kick ass coaster, and I would love to see it happen, but there have been no signs of this happening. They probably would have announced its closing by now like SFDK did.

I know you want to be enthusiastic about the possibility of your home park getting a kick A$$ coaster, and I would love to see it happen, but there have been no signs of this happening. They probably would have announced its closing by now like SFDK did. Nah I'd rather get one of the S&S 4d free spins. Or a good family coaster and some flats.
SixFlagsAstroworld Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 Anyway, here's my predictions for parks that has not leaked info yet: SFSTL: SFNE's SplashWater Falls SFGAM: S&S 4D SFFT: Dive coaster SFMM: JLBFM SFDK: flat rides and a new theme for V2 SFM: S&S 4D SFA: Rides from SFGAM GE: Waterpark expansion LR: S&S 4D
djackson Posted August 18, 2016 Author Posted August 18, 2016 It's kinda funny how most people say the six flags announcements aren't interesting and are the same every year but would could honestly be more boring than hearing about some used flat rides. I'd take a bunch of JL and 4d clones than a bunch of old troikas. At least six flags is opening some coasters.
DILinator Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 It's kinda funny how most people say the six flags announcements aren't interesting and are the same every year but would could honestly be more boring than hearing about some used flat rides. I'd take a bunch of JL and 4d clones than a bunch of old troikas. At least six flags is opening some coasters. Now, I'm not dogging all the CF additions, as honestly, many of them appear to be good fits for their parks. But I do agree that typically, even though they're a bunch of cloned attractions (and coasters), Six Flags does put a lot more interesting additions into their parks, making their announcement more exciting.
Yubstep101 Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 Well, if Six Flags Great America is getting a S&S 4D Free Spin in 2017, wouldn't it be the first of its kind in the Midwest? I also feel like if they do,I think it's gonna be themed to the Joker since it would be in the Mardi Gras area of the park and well, the Joker could blend well into the Mardi Gras theme.

So true, I'd rather have a JL, S&S 4D, or a Zamperla flat ride packge over ANY of the additions KD, MiA, Dorney, WoF, or VF have gotten over the past 5 years. Bring back Dick Kinzel!! If Ouimet had been in charge of Cedar Fair earlier, rides like Talon, i305, Patriot, Goldstriker, Prowler, etc probably wouldnt exist.
SixFlagsAstroworld Posted August 22, 2016 Posted August 22, 2016 Who else is hyped for September 1st I'm very curious, but not letting my hopes up for SFSTL.
