A new promotional video for SFMM??????s 2011 plans has been discovered, announcing THREE (3) new coasters coming to the park in 2011. Superman: The Escape will now be called Superman: Escape from Krypton, and does indeed feature backwards trains with a new paintjob on the tower. The top third looks to be all red, with the rest blue, with yellow rails throughout. The big surprise however is next?????? Green Lantern is coming. Yes, a large green and black coaster is going in the shadow of Batman and Riddler that will be America??????s first Intamin ZacSpin. The themeing is very appropriate and looks awesome. Along with the tentatively named ??????Kids Coaster?????? coming in 2011 (I guess it really wont be called Mr. Six??????s Dance Coaster anymore.) the video ends by pointing out that The Mountain ??????Recaptures the Coveted Thrill Park Crown?????? with a record-setting 18 roller coasters. More than any other park on the planet. Go big at SFMM in 2011 for the park??????s 40th Anniversary. God Bless Six Flags?????? they??????ve done right by SFMM once again as we say hello to Project 18.

K, so they are repainting superman and calling it new and getting an Intamin zac spin. Cool I guess... Why the heck isn't one of the cars on superman forwards though? doesn't make much sense.
Boulder Dash was the only good roller coaster.

The ZacSpin flips way more in the video than Insane does in real life.
Do the fat people make it spin more?

BTW I want whatever simulation that was. The physics were off but it looked pretty sweet!

I believe that was 3DS Max.

New cars and a new paint job does not a new coaster make. It's a hyper butterfly no matter what else they call it.

I do look forward to seeing a ZacSpin in person though. However "The themeing is very appropriate and looks awesome" is a bit of hyperbole for "it's green and we painted a lantern on it".

And an off the shelf Kids Coaster! Take that Ceder Park!
Be sure you're not looking in a mirror before you start pointing fingers.

They just turn them(both I think)forward like T.O.T.

So they are fixing up their old Intamin that was usually down and building a new Intamin, that will usually be down.

I lol'd at Robb Alvey's news update on facebook about this earlier, really bumming the fact that there was THREE NEW COASTERS! Fock off Robb Alvey. All of his little minions were commenting: "IT'S THE BEST YEAR AT SFMM.... EVER!!! OMG!!" Stupid little bastards.

They're getting a Zacspin, which guaranteed is quite cool, but it's a tiny little thing. On top of that, they're getting Superman repainted and the cars are new... How is that a "new" coaster? [lol]

Clearly the media machine has attempted to defraud the GP by announcing their intentions to build two "new" rides, and fix a third. I hardly think a used roller skater is worth spending the $900 on a PRWire.

You seem quite pleased at the thought of everyone but yourself and a few select others being brutally tortured for all of eternity. Plz explain.

Agree with slosprint?????????s second post; they should keep one of the cars facing forwards on Superman: Escape from Krypton, so you still have a choice between either experience - forwards OR backwards.

Having a choice could mean very uneven lines and a lot of annoyed people. From what I heard people weren't too thrilled with it before, so I figure they did the right thing by having both sides backwards. If you want high speeds facing forward, Goliath is about as fast as Superman was anyways.

Both of you sort of... That's why I used the quote with both in it. Hell is pretty much the thing in modern theology which ticks me off the most... It just makes no sense whatsoever and is actually sort of offensive imo. I sort of take it as a personal insult lol.

It didn't make any sense though. Please stick to metaphors which are already established within the English language. thx.
