The Dorney floorless's name / CF out of ideas

Talk about anything that has to do with the amusement park industry here.

Dorney Park's 2005 floorless finally gets a name... and it's more horrendous than anything they renamed at Geauga Lake. See for yourself

Yeah, that's a dumb name.

If you copy and paste the link into the address bar, it might work. The first time, I clicked on the link and it didn't work, and then I tried copying & pasting it into the address bar... which worked.

Wow, I can't say I like that name......I sure hope Sfgam does not get a name like that. If they did, it better be for a huge coaster then!

I like the Hydra part, but the revenge part is just dumb in my opinion. Just call it Hydra or Hydra: The Ride :wink:.

Yeah i kinda agree. They should not call it Hydra the ride though because you already know that it is a ride, why else whould you be at a theme park?

I believe it's a mytological creature with many heads that Hercules killed.
Or it least it looks like that from the logo.

Yeah, I'm just glad the name is origional. Hydra alone would be a good name. Still, I think it's better than "Revolution: The Ride"... is "The Ride" really necessary? Anyway, I just like seeing new names and themes. Oh, and Borg is a damn nice looking coaster, I was there a few weeks back. Couldn't get on it tho, thankfully I rode it when it was "Stealth". The theming was real nice.

I don't completely understand what is up with coaster names and colon usage (especially with "The Ride". We see it! We know it's a friggin' ride!) Maybe CF thought Six Flags would sue them if they tried The Hydra's Revenge (off of RRv). And with SF's debt crisis, they would probably go that far.

I could guess that the Hydra: The Revenge has to do with something with Hydra getting revenge on Hercules. Hydra wins :lol:

If they are going to do this, they better theme it at least a little. Can't complain about the logo however.

Well, if they call it just Batman or Superman, they may be infringing on copyright laws, but I'm not really sure. They might have gotten permission to use only logos and characters, not the names Batman and Superman (why there's The Ride and Ultimate Flight)

Speaking of being sued for using a similar name, does anyone know if our premier coaster names are trademarked? Disney has trademarked their big rides (Tower of Terror, Space Mountain, etc). Do American Eagle, Iron Wolf, etc have any name protection?
