scott Posted July 5, 2018 Report Share Posted July 5, 2018 This is really hard. Only picking 5? Well as you can see I cheated a little.

Aqua Spectacle/Fort Independence with the Dive and Dolphin shows 4. Stunt Shows (Batman Stunt Arena)/ Wild West Show (Great Arena) 3. Enterprise 2. Looping Starship 1. An 18 year old Me, I mean Rolling Thunder Honorable Mentions: The Great American Scream Machine, Fireworks on the weekends (as mentioned by Njdevl9500), Lightning Loops, Haunted Castle, the Rotor, Monster Spin, Pretty Monster, Schwbinchen, Musik Express, Water Ski Spectacular, Paddle Boats… Anything that reminds me of the 70s and 80s.

joeyc98 Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 1. Rides/attractions along the KingdaKa/El Toro pathway again instead of an empty (but now open!!) path. 2. A second Log Flume aka Hydro Flume 3. Constant shows in the barely used Theatres. Especially with recent investment in Movietown/Old Country, I feel as though now is the perfect time to introduce a summer show in the Showcase Theatre and The Stunt Arena. 4. Costumed superheros. Maybe it is just me, but I feel like I only see Looney Tunes walking around. Not sure if this is a thing of the past to 'bring back,' but it is definitely something the park should take advantage of. 5. Rolling Thunder 2.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pineracer Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 1. Freefall 2. Chiller or Lightning Loops (a shuttle coaster in general) 3. More shows, could include more characters 4. Other IP's (not just Time Warner) 5. Something to look forward to at the end of the day (Fiesta Texas has a laser show, could simply be fireworks like what's been said before) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericthewanderer Posted July 12, 2018 Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 Good news-Intermark Ride Group has a Freefall for sale!Other than that my choices are: 1-Scream Machine 2-Rolling Thunder with only lap bars 3-Chiller with newer OTSRs(the lap bars and ankle restraints were a little narrow for me). 4-new shows for the Showcase Theater and Stunt Arena. 5-Temple Of The Tiger show. Honorable mentions:Fort Independence dive/dolphin shows;Glow In The Dark parade;park open until midnight during the summer;more cohesive themeing(ex:no superheroes on the boardwalk);replace all those lost trees(or as many as possible-it shocks me to see how much the park has lost in that area);Giant Teepee;and Viper(so people can experience that torture device in person).

(I know it would need some type of re engineering but I want it) The dive and dolphin show the original fountain. (I really believed the water shot as high as the big wheel) Lighting Loops Rolling Thunder. (Lets make them one ride) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
