Love the aerial photo of The Vortex where you see the majority of the circuit.

That a little girl died on The Bat when she was flung out of the car. Not exactly sure how that would happen, though.

Or, the Vekoma tilt coaster concept in one of the surveys was cool.

I think the event is sponsored by the Coasterbuzz web site. There's some kind of fee you have to pay in order to go to the event. Obviously, if you belong to the coasterbuzz club, the fee to participate is less.

If it would be in West Virginia, they could call it Paramount's Mullet Island.

"I think IJ:ST is over rated, its good but didnt live up to what they made it out to be." And now that most all of the effects are working, it still is highly over-rated for what they made it out to be. I'm wondering, will we ever see the step effects or fish tailing? And, is the step effect supposed to take place in that tunnel that's not quite completely enclosed?

"False, check out the gallery of SFFT at Lone Star Thrills. Boardwalk Canyon Blaster. Rides and roller coasters do sometimes get put in storage without being constructed." Even if what you are saying is true, it is far from the norm. So no, I don't believe that there is track at PCW that won't be used for a few years.

Sounds like a good idea.

^I could see timeline as a good Action Theatre attraction.

That makes sense, Mr.PKI.

Good article, Chef. All parks are beginning to see the light when it comes to water parks. You can build an entire water park for the cost of one coaster.

^I agree Skippy. But, I think you'll see a reversal of that trend over the next five years.

Geauga Lake has been under Cedar Fair for two seasons. The drop in attendance was still due to Six Flags' management. CF had control of GL for one month before opening. There's nothing they could have done to bring in more people the first year as advertising budgets had already been decided and not many people were aware that the park had changed hands. If there is a drop in attendance after this season, then you can say it's CF's fault. They are trying to reverse years of bad management and the public's negative opinion of that park.

I agree SOB Tom, that thinking is a pretty big reach.

Who's going to the announcement? You'll have to let us know if anything else is announced, which I agree Scooby, could come with the winterfest announcement.

What proof are we looking at exactly? Well, eventually they'll have to dig up some other forgettable Paramount movie to theme a ride to. I guess Sky Captain is as good as any.

"But for those of us who love the park please keep that stuff to yourself." Again, the third reich returns to PKIC. This guy has a right to voice his opinion, even if he doesn't like PKI. You Nazis need to learn to accept everyone, not just the ones with the same view as yours. This is the same bull that you tried with me. Why does every thread and comment have to be a butt kissing one? You people act like that everyone should be pleased with every decision they make and that they make no wrong decisions. Trust me, they do, or there would be no Son of Beast.

Those who know, don't tell. Those who tell, don't know. Pretty simple.

AZ, why don't you tell us how you really feel about SOB?

Personally, I never watch the video any more, so it's no big deal. I remember when the room would go dark, you would get pegged by flying change and other stuff.

"One thing that I do want to get for my Wall of Shame is one of those metal Eiffel Tower statues." For some strange reason, I really want one of those. I'd actually like one made in the glass shop, but I'm guessing it would be pretty expensive.

I was stuck on The Beast's second lift hill for about 10 minutes. There was some problem loading someone in the station. No biggie, but my ex-girlfriend freaked out.

I thought it would be impossible to get stuck on top. You would think that an inch one way or another would shift the weight and either force it over or backwards.

I would like to see that too.

But, they didn't ask where to go for discounts. They asked how much ticket prices are.
