Out of all the Six Flags Parks 9 Has a roller coaster Named Superman! (10 including Geauga Lake)

And out of all the Six Flags parks 11 Have a roller coaster named Batman! (12 Including Geauga Lake)

Dont you think they should come up some new names!!! At least when Six Flags sold Six Flags Ohio they remnaned there Superman and Batman!

not really, no. SF bought the right to use DC comics property and they're doing just that. would you rather they spend money to buy the rights and then not do anything with the IP? besides, the only people that care about multiple parks having similarily named rides are enthusiats. the GP don't really know. personally, I'd love to see different themes and rides and ride names at all the parks, but, since they spent money for the liscense, I'm not complaining.

I don't mind the name so long as the coaster is good

I personally like the names. But as long as the coasters are good it won't bother me.

It doesn't really matter to me, but it does get annoying if a parks best ride is a clone.

I just wish they would take more advantage of thier DC comic status. Do more with it. Batman has a nice queue, they should put more effort into making line-waiting just as entertaining as the rest of the park. They kind of tried with superman, but its still just a bunch of signs. When I see THEME PARK I want to see the THEME part.

What is so wrong with the Batman and Superman name? SF does not have enough of what they own rights to in the park. Instead, they come up with stupid names like Mind Eraser, Chang, T2-Terror Twister (Maybe okay), The Boss, The Flying Coaster (How original?), XLR-8, Mayan Mindbender, and Serial Thriller for goodness sakes along with Boomerang Coast to Coast.

I'm not a fan of boat rides (swinging type), but considering SFStL is themed Joker, I'll go on it. Two Face-Flip Side sounds cool along with the ride itself. Some of these names are just boring like mentioned above. Superman, and Batman don't seem like they would be boring rides even if they are.

Besides, they are not all the same names of Batman and Superman (Batman the Ride, Batwing, Batman Knight Flight (before), Superman Ride of Steel, Superman Krypton Coaster, Superman Ultimate Escape (before), Superman Ultimate Flight, Superman the Ride)

what other names can be themed using cardboard/plywood cutouts and a half hour with a paintbrush?

by **Bob O** on July 23rd, 2005, 9:41 pm

I would agree with FPark185!!
It it is themed like BTR, trhen it is fine, but it seems most just use the Batman/Superman name as a cheap gimick with no thought of proper theming to go with it.

I think that they should use some of the other justice league names like wonder woman, and flash.

I completely agree. I always thought of the Flash for V2. It would be sooooo awesome if we had a Wonder Woman ride though. Enjoy the thrills of Wonder Woman's Lightning Lasso new for ____ at SFGAm.

Don't really care about the names, I just like the rides.
