You're right. They don't need to take out any rides. However, if you are going to do an expansion, it's going to have to be in a new area likely, and that will cost lots of money.

"This IJ "isn't very fun/thrilling" argument is one that really ****es me off. Folks, it ain't supposed to be thrilling!" Then, why did they advertise it that way if it's not supposed to be thrilling? The first ad with the animation said to get ready for the most thrilling....

But, Ryan, I could go now and point out several paragraphs that are run on sentences that are in current topics. I don't see where the problem is being addressed. It's so hard to read them when you can't separate one thought from another without re-reading it, which I don't like to do. I mean, really, how hard is it to use the punctuation keys to separate your sentences?

^I was going to say the same thing. I love the blue Icees.

^That's great for you, gburn, but what about the people who don't find it as thrilling as the major coasters there? Reptar is about as intense, outside of the launches. "I can't entirely confirm this, but from what I understand the 3rd LIM boost is for functionality only. Apparently if the train doesn't have a lot of weight in it, and the sensors don't think that it will make it past the magnetic brakes at the end, it will give it a boost." That makes the most sense to me. I never heard the LIM kick in while I was in line.

Magic 8 ball says.....

Must be a weak boost, I didn't notice it at all.

The theme tune sounds nothing like Indiana Jones. What are you getting at? Yeah, there is some wood coaster maintenance in there. It's just not as much as a woodie.

"So tell me, how is 0-40 MPH not noticable?" It's noticable, just not note worthy. After all, how many high speed car chases only go 40mph anyway? Frankly, I only noticed two of the three. Where is the boost? I know the initial launch and the launch at the helicopter. Where's the boost that isn't a launch?

"What do you think Adventure Express is??" A mine train coaster, not a wooden coaster.

I'm not sure I'd wait that long. Probably only an hour. MF, on the other hand, is worth a two hour wait.

"Sit in the very front on SoB next time. It is sure to be a MUCH better ride." No, don't do that. Sit in the middle seat of any car and you should be ok. Riding over top of any of the wheels spells certain pain.

^There's never been any theming while on the ride. Station only.

So, not the parking lot then. I was right. Cookie for me.

I like the Sleepy Hollow idea. "They could have an indiana jones themed wooden coaster." Actually, they can't. Disney owns the rights to any Indy themed rides. Lucas thought that only Disney could produce any Indy rides worth doing. I hate to see that too. Not smart on Paramount's part. Doo, I never knew Jodie Foster did the voice of Pugsley. Interesting to know.

Being a night shot and all, I can't really tell. Is that the area where IJ:ST is now? Might be the old Antiques station.

^Yeah, it was. I don't really remember any special lighting though. I do remeber the 3D like plane that used to be on that huge billboard back there as well.

^Sorry, but people still know who the Addams Family is. Maybe not so much the real young ones, but, people know AF. Problem is, there are not that many good Paramount movies to theme any attractions to. And the ones that are good are already in the park. Of course, there's always Kiss the Girls. Also, Top Gun hasn't been popular in at least a decade, if not more.

Longest I waited was for five hours for The Beast, back in the early 80's. TTD is worth a wait, Jasper, but not three hours.

"Really. What is it." I can't exactly remember where I read it, but it has something to do with the axles.

I got to ride it twice when I was there. All of the effects were working and I didn't see anyone get stuck. I also wasn't very thrilled with it either. Cool effects, but that's about it.

What clones? What is Top Gun a clone of? Looks like a suspended looping coaster to me. PKI's is a suspended, PC's is a B&M invert, and PGA's is a B&M invert too. The Bat is not a clone of anything, it's a boomerang coaster. Vortex at PKI is a Arrow mega looper, PGA and PC have standing coasters named Vortex and Canada's is a suspended coaster.

MSN reports almost exactly the same top 10 list every year. Nothing really changes about it, except maybe the order.

"I think SFGADV would be wise to hold off on the Intamin woody for a year or two. Considering their latest Intamin essentaiy destroyed itself and is requiring additional millions to repair. But hey as said before this is Six Flags and they aren't know for wise decisions." But, their wooden coasters have not had any major problems I have heard of. Not only that, you are talking two totally different types of technologies.
