is six flags park owner of paramounts great america in any way all the ride look the same or the names almost match sfga what a great park i miss shock wave how about the plan one for space shuttle now stargate 300 only a space ship
^No. Six Flags has absolutely no ownership in the Califorina Great America, hence why it's called Paramount's Great America. All theming similarities and identical rides with identical locations are from pre-Six Flags/Paramount days when both parks were owned by the Marriott corporation.

I remember 10 years ago with the stunt shows. They looked so big and realistic and now when i go in the theaters theyre really small and i wonder how good those shows really were.

The one thing I remember from the WB stunt show was that locomotive with the front bent up crashing through some doors. I think I read somewhere that the train is still at the park behind Roaring Rapids.
I remember the batman stunt show. It was awesome. i remember seeing something on TV about it where they actually showed you behind the scenes and where the second guy sat in the front of the batmobile to make it "drive itself". It was neat i wish I had taped it.
Ahh the rain drop, the perfect aerodynamic shape. It is actually formed by the air around it.
Yeah, I saw that on the Travel Channel one time. It was at SFMM when Goliath was being built. I remeber they called the the "Coaster Capital of the world". Lol, more like sh*t capital of the world
Speaking of maps, I've always wondered why SF doesn't put their hours on the maps that you get at the park. People might choose to take those things home. They might want to know what time the park is open so they can go there again in during the same year.
So, why does SF put there hours on the front of the maps. What are your opinions about this?

My opinion is that the park opens almost everyday June-August at 10 AM. Not to mention any well prepared family will have visited the website or something beforehand.

They put the hours on the calender in the brochure. Each date is color coded and all you have to do is look at which color means what hours. I've used it many times. So, yeah, it's there.
