People should not want this ride. It's a poor ride that will be a big disappointment. Other parks who have it have shown it's popular just b/c it's new and people want to see what the new ride is about Few after riding it once are thrilled it. It's not a ride you have to do again afterwards or a must go ride multiple times on a trip to the park. IT'S UNDERWHELMING!
Tell that to Six Flags then because they seem to want them. I'll take it you wouldn't ride it if we do get one. What makes you think that it would be a big disappointment? I won't be surprised if every park eventually gets one even SFMM once GLFF is torn down for it.
Six Flags also seems to want Superloops and keeps putting them all over the place and nobody seems to like them much. It's a disappointment b/c I rode it just last week visiting SFGAdv. Taking a generalized poll of talking to many people they were underwhelmed and were good after 1 ride. I felt the same. BTw, SFMM already had a 4D, it's called Green Lantern which is called the Joker at SFGdv and Batman at SF Fiesta.[/quote]
It seems like whatever were going to get in 2017 your against it. So what do you want to see in 2017 because its clear you don't want a Free Spin or SuperLoop and these seem to be the two rides were most likely to receive. I don't mean to be rude but your posts seem to be focusing way too much on the negative side of things.
^^Besides the fact Kingda Ka is too tall for our park, it suffers from frequent downtime (and Intamin is not coming back to our park anytime soon with a coaster); Mr. Freeze is an almost 20 year old design that while fun, is outdated and also suffers quite a bit of downtime (but a modern Premier full circuit launch coaster would be fine with me); Dare Devil Dive is a Eurofighter, and while they are fun, their low capacity would be a poor fit for our park.
I wouldn't mind that. I wonder what flats we would get besides a SuperLoop. Maybe a Giant Discovery in Revolutions spot. Not sure about the third one now.

No worries Tardis! I haven't been on a Sky Rocket II but I have been on Full Throttle and Mr. Freeze so if it's just as good as those I would be one happy camper.

Maybe a ride like Catwoman's Whip? It's close enough to Orbit to be a replacement.
The Giant Discovery is just a bigger and taller version of Revolution, so I doubt the park adds that and an endevaor is SIMILAR to Orbit. Not exactly the same, but similar...that seems possible with the Orbit leaving but still just don't see it happening.
Everything makes sense for an S&S FreeSpin seeing the amount of space they are clearing and stuff. We shall find out in a few days!
Honestly, at this point anything that is added to the park, that is a net + in terms of rides added would be awesome. The east side of the park has needed work for a while, so it's good to see they're focusing on this area beyond what they did with Goliath a few years ago. That said, if we have to wait a year or two to receive a truly spectacular gigacoaster in Eagle's spot, I'd be willing to forgo almost any and all improvements until that time.
