New ride for 2016

Talk about anything that has to do with Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor here.

Theming aside has anybody (sorry of I missed it earlier) considered a Joker's Jinx type ride? The shot of the Eagle could simply be a perspective from the new ride. The purple colors would make sense because the supports are purple and the underlined "o"s could reference loops/inversions which the Jinx has. Also the footprint is fairly compact which is helpful.

Maybe Six Flags America is repaying us by giving up their Jokers Jinx coaster XD

While I would totally welcome Joker's Jinx, It's one of their star attractions. Unless they get something even better.

It seems like the other side always wins on American Eagle :?
Also, I've ridden Goliath 23 times in one day. HBU? :roll: :P

How many people took surveys this year? I know that they are pretty generic to all parks....but the attraction that was introduced in the one I took was a full circuit launched coaster which had a gotham/superhero theme to it. It was a while ago but the one train would launch from the station while a second would launch from mid-ride so that the two trains would "duel" each other.

The survey had a rendering of the coaster in NL....and from what I recall it had a fairly narrow/skinny footprint...it's hard to say if anything of that caliber would actually fit in the SWAT area...

I'm still leaning towards a JL Metropolis dark ride...which I hope the park maintains....because we all know how well they did with the upkeep on TDK :lol: It always seems like their Justice League themes are based on movies "in the now" and after a period of time, it loses charm.

That is a possibility, but two racing coasters next to each other? I'm not so sure about that...

You could say the same thing about two wooden coasters or two mouse coasters, and the park has done both before...

I keep coming back to the description below the video: "You may think you know...but we're not so sure you do."

Everyone thinks it's the dark ride. Therefore, it might not be.

Oh lets throw this out there.....the three O's are underlined. There were 3 arms of beloved ferris wheel, the O's are the same shape has the buckets of the beloved ferris wheel. The video says you think you know but you really don't! SKY WHIRL IS COMING BACK! :lol:

I hope it's not a JL dark ride. Those guns will be broken in one season! Just a fancy version of Space Shuttle America!

Don't forget, with Goliath they admitted to reading this forum and that's why they through the SWAT and Full Throttle into those teasers, because it's what we were all guessing. So of course they're going to try and throw us off by putting stuff in there like you think you know but you don't.

But if it is the dark ride they would look pretty stupid in hindsight with that statement, because we DID know all along.

Looking at the comments of the YouTube video teaser is literally making me lose brain cells. Half of the people think they're RMCing Eagle, some say it'll be a Joker themed ride. One guy thinks it'll be a Five Nights at Freddy's coaster, another is convinced that the Twitter teaser is fake, and is commenting on every comment that mentions a Justice League dark ride that's it's a trick.

Okay.
Since six flags has admitted to reading these. Put everything in perspective, all they wanna do is trick us and fellow coaster/SFGAm enthusiasts, so they know exactly what we think by reading these forums such as this and TPR.

If they think we have a clue, they'll just Find another way to screw with our heads. We don't really have a shot at guessing what the ride will be based on these.

I'm not sure if they care about tricking the youtubers. As said above. They're literally the ideas that were said at the planning meetings so Everyone could have a laugh

Yeah, they're probably reading this right now.

Remember Six Flags, Larson Super Loops are NOT coasters!

No one has mentioned yet that the color purple is created when you combine the colors red & blue, Eagle's two sides.

I saw the lights that produced the purple lighting for American Eagle during my ride today. I saw similar lights( white ones) on top of the antique photo shop in Yankee Harbor.
