  1. Ehh. If I don't know the general age of the forum, I'll censor myself. If I know it's largely adults present, I won't.
  2. They can be playing the hell out of that song from the tree show. I heard it two weeks ago and it's still rattling around in my head.
  3. Yeah, they really need to get on this. Their social media game is abysmal. I don't know if they need to contract with some influencers or just high a college-aged marketing intern and hand over the reigns. I always get the impression that the person handling it doesn't quite "get" how the various platforms work.
  4. From what I've heard, they have a hard time hiring people do the characters, especially the DC "faces". I can understand that. Those things are hot as hell and the thought of wearing on on a 90+ degree day with 1000% humidity is positively revolting.
  5. That may be intentional to cap crowd size considering how understaffed they are.
  6. Usually the point of that is to gauge if you can write an argument and how well you take notes. They're just gonna put another super loop in El Diablo's spot. And they're gonna call it ... get ready ... El Diablo.
  7. Source? Because Six Flags had a waterpark in Florida and bailed on it after ten years. They've had ample opportunity to jump into that market and have avoided it. Let's not confuse wishful thinking on the part of pass-holders with actual facts. I know it's a popular thing to do around here, but it serves no purpose. But Paramount doesn't. Cedar Fair does. None of that ever happnened, so what's your point? Movie studios aren't buying back their old parks. Six Flags isn't buying Busch Gardens or SeaWorld. If anything, companies are starting to hunker down after the way the market has been acting and layoffs in the manufacturing sector.
  8. Yup, both the creditors committee and the largest shareholder want to turn park ops over to Six Flags.
  9. By leaving them in the queue area with ride attendants, the park would be assuming too much liability for phones. It's not like people are running around with $50 flip phones anymore. So yeah, I totally agree. Would be nice if they had an all season locker pass though.
  10. Pretty hard to feel cheated for that price, but I'm sure someone will. Love this event. Just wish they could put a small rink in somewhere for ice skating.
  11. Twister's days are pretty much numbered, as there's so few of those Huss Topspins left. I wouldn't mind seeing an Endeavor. I also wouldn't mind some sort of non-DC dark ride or even a fun house.
  12. I don't think the park is that filthy that it's the "what is most necessary". I've actually found it in pretty good shape. It's hard to keep things pristine when you have large turn-over of people coming in and out every day.
  13. Biggest single improvement would be a new lighting package on the Ferris Wheel. Second would be refreshing the paint on most of the marquee rides. Third would be an escape room upcharge (I hate the basic idea of these things, but apparently people with actual social skills love them). Last would be a sit-down restaurant and potentially a dinner theater.
  14. My thoughts are you can see it a week early if you have Amazon Prime. https://www.amazon.com/adlp/aquamanmovie
  15. Just as long as Black Friday is warmer. Park time for me that day!
  16. I wouldn't believe a word of this until the N-14 is filed on the SEC site. Six Flags has no way of securing enough credit to close a transaction of this size.
  17. Ugh. I so despise the country music = patriotism trope but this looks like a nice event.
  18. Yeah, the picnic grove was hopping, but the park itself was pleasantly empty.
  19. Hopefully we'll crawl above normal for December (for purely selfish reasons being I hope the park doesn't cut HITP short again).
  20. Yes, please! I'm ready to be done with air conditioning and humidity.
  21. Never horked, but I've gotten vertigo from Joker and Cyborg because I had an inner ear infection I wasn't aware of at the time.
  22. Unless the only way to raise capital is to sell something off, and they'll go with the low hanging fruit first. And I don't think they're at that point yet.
  23. This is more interesting from a municipal government point of view, personally. I can't imagine my local municipality managing a huge water park - they're not really good at managing garbage pick up. Then again, that may be why they're leasing the park to Six Flags.
