A place to talk about roller coasters and parks that have them. Everyone is welcome here to both learn and to celebrate these magnificent machines designed to scare you.
Here are some important resources:
Images are welcome if they are of high quality and it doesn't get out of hand. Please use PostImages to upload your image and then use that link in the URL field of your post (other image sites are permitted but Post Images has the best policies and compatibility).
Some basic rules:
-
Opinions, theories, and facts are all welcome – but be clear about what you’re saying.
-
Back up facts with sources as much as possible
-
No spam or sell-promotion. Linking to your own media or site is permissible only if it’s specifically related to a topic/post that someone else created.
-
No photos or videos taken on the rides. This is dangerous and shouldn't be encouraged.
-
Limit political discussion. When discussed it must be park related.
-
No fictional coasters (models, no limits, planet coaster, etc)
-
No posting personal information.
-
No shaming of anyone. We all can continue to learn and not everyone knows everything -- and that's ok.

I see this as a pretty temporary setup until epic opens. They need a place in the mean time for meet and greets and potentially a little show. I bet longer term the whole area will be redeveloped post epic.
I don't know if I'm sold on that idea but it certainly is possible. It does seem like a retheme more than anything because the whole time the wall has been up I could still see the top of the woody woodpecker coaster (unless that just started coming down in the last month or so). It'll be interesting to see what happens with a lot of areas in USF/IoA after Epic opens.
I really hope that ET remains. They need to keep something from opening day.... I would have rather that been Back to the Future but ET is also a classic.
E.T. Probably safe for a long time. This last trip they were using the entire extended queue and then some, and of course I waited in it cause you just never know. I does need some tlc.
There are certainly some needs of rehab and maybe some additional effects of some sort but is still a neat ride and honestly fits great next to a kids area.
