Which has been retweeted by the park, in case there was any question about the legitimacy of the tease. Seems like we have a really good idea of the theme, at least...

I think American Eagle will under go something for the Batman vs. Superman movie (Temporary), and I think we will get Poltergeist and it will turn into Joker's Jinx (Suicide Squad). If not, I'm sure it will be related to the upcoming movies.

What's if it's a dark ride, but themed to Batman V.S. superman instead of JL:BFM

Seems rather unlike SIx Flags to make something from scratch when they have a pretty similar thing all ready to go.

I'm trying to think along with the park here - the teasers so far very clearly point to a Batman/Superman/Justice League/DC ride of some sort. Anybody with a little knowledge is going to leap and say it's the dark ride (and that's still very possible), but based on past years (and the description to the video) I feel like it's very possible there's something else (but I have no idea what that something else would be). It's a weird situation, because I kind of want the dark ride, but I also kind of hope that they didn't make the teasers THIS easy this year.

As far as I can tell, nobody anywhere is even discussing the possibility of Poltergeist moving except on this board. Either somehow people here are super amazing guessers or it's just something that's not even remotely true. I'm guessing the later...

Also, in the first Video teaser, did anyone else notice the black figure atop Eagle? The more you look at it, the more you realize it was PHOTOSHOPPED!

First off, I used to have an account on here but forgot the password for both the account and the linked email

Secondly, I was at the park today and also saw first hand lot of the demo of the SWAT. My friend and I rode the bull multiple times to get a decent view and then went on eagle once it opened, as well as looked at the entrance and exit of it. I'm pretty excited about what we could get there and just the fact that they are finally getting rid of the SWAT just because it's barely been used for who knows how long.

Finally, I saw someone who I'm assuming is on here, because first off, I've seen him on the goliath documentary "Goliath: Documenting the Giant (or something like that) and secondly, because I saw him getting on RB and he specifically told one of the grouper he was trying to get a view of the deconstruction (who was "stunned" to find this out, thus proving the reliability of anyone who isn't some sort of manager).

I thought the forum rules say you can't register more than 1 account?

I don't really know, but I used a different email and if I can't remember the password for the old account or the email address I don't think it'll be used anymore

How is it photo shop when you can go to the park at night and the America Eagle lights at the bottom is purple?

Erm, they were just jokingly pretending that Six Flags was reading their posts. There's no need to take it that seriously. I have no idea what you are talking about. They were talking about Poltergeist, not Sky Whirl![/quote]

Clearly you don't read all the posts in this forum. Some SkyWhirl fanatic stated that the Three underlines Os in Coming Soon liked the circles of the SkyWhirl cage so SkyWhirl must be coming back....you might think they are joking but I don't think so people are!

Um, you were referring to a different post when one person asked six flags to add poltergeist. He didn't mention sky whirl at all in his post. You must be confused with another post.

I'm on a megabus coming home from Ohio & I'm gonna say it was because I clicked on that Twitter pic just before I passed out BUT - I had a dream we got a dueling batman vs superman launch coaster. It looked like the chiller but ...more twisted & I said to my friend why would they put it here?! Then I woke up after I looked at the sun & I woke up starring at a light. Dreams are weird. Lol obv I was subconsciously thinking about it before I passed out. Superheroes in the west. Can't wait. LOL

Had to edit this everything was spelled wrong. Did I mention I was on a bus?

Since I'm the one that said that, I'll let it be known, I was just joking. I am by no means a sky whirl fanatic, I never even got to ride the damn thing as a kid. I just knew that there were some people who really want to see it's return.

The people at B96 know what's up. Another pic has been posted to Instagram for #SFGAM2016 which pract gives it away. Check it out.

This is becoming obvious if it is a JL dark ride.

I remember on the new attractions survey, there was something about a duel launch steel coaster between Batman and Superman...
