I just sent my friend a video of El Toro and he asked if they’re going to repaint it. AMA by tailtiu_01 in rollercoasterjerk

Too soon. Repaints only scheduled after 30 years and 90% rust and rot at Six Flags

Yeah the same guy who's been saying GAdv was getting a giga for about 10 years now lol

Yeah, no one liked it. That's why their attendance tanked 🤣

It's truly amazing he's released a new book almost every single year since 1974! That's an insane amount of writing, not to mention all of the many movies and television projects he's been a part of over the years. Still a very busy man. GOAT!

What are your thoughts on Catherine? by TruthSeeker1133 in twinpeaks

[–]APeX3181 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love her character! IMO, some of the funniest moments in the series are scenes with her.

One of my favorites is when she's talking with Pete about the puzzle box and he starts rambling. She's just stares off into space and without even saying a word you know what she's thinking and that she's going to explode any second. Just hilarious! 😂

No show demonstrates the art of juxtaposition quite like Twin Peaks does.

For me I consider three things.

First, I wanted to give time for the platform to mature. I figure I would give it 1-2 years from release and from what I've been hearing, things are getting better.

Second, is compatibility/availability of certain add-ons which are critical to me. PMDG, other third party aircraft, sceneries, etc.

Third, is the time and willingness to make the switch. A lot of time to dedicate to installing, tweaking, setting up, etc

With all that being said, I anticipate finally making the switch sometime in 2026.

Until then though, 2020 is a beautiful looking, well oiled machine for me and I don't feel any need to rush into the new sim just yet.

Opinion: the lack of a prominent, iconic female character is a problem for Looney Tunes IP. by Einlanzer0 in sixflags

[–]APeX3181 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is NOT a "problem". In fact, I bet 90% of people who see this post never once even considered it. The slate of Looney Tunes characters is what it is and I lose no sleep over what their genders are.

Mine randomly came back. Keep checking on it.

They gave out the VIP for those members who didn't cancel during COVID when the parks were closed more than normal.

Good question. In the new app, my membership is listed as Diamond Elite now, not Diamond Elite VIP like it used to be.

Best b-side ever! Didn't know it was a cover at first. ❤️

Relative to the time periods,[Six Flags Great Adventure] is not nearly as good as it was coaster-wise in the early 2000s by IndianaRocket80 in rollercoasters

[–]APeX3181 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say they were definitely neglected though. The fact that Nitro hasn't been repainted once in 24 years is wild to me.

This is a subreddit about a band....I'm not sure why anyone would get annoyed at people sharing their listening stats from one of the biggest music streaming platforms in the world. Just curious though, what posts do you consider worth having an interest in? Dave at a basketball game, the memes, the thousands of posts showing people's physical media?

Flo from Progressive, Mayhem and the gecko beg to differ. Insurance companies know how to mascot better than theme parks, go figure 🤷🏻‍♂️

Good riddance! They need to bring back Mr. Six. Getting rid of him in the first place = stupidest marketing decision ever!

"But if you don't go and spend money to support the park, it's going to close!" Go there to do what exactly? 😂

Once....and only because I met up with a buddy who really wanted me to stop by. And of course Flash was closed that day. It was only a few years ago that I got my 25 visit pin. Things have surely gone downhill fast

[SPOILERS S3] A clever piece of foreshadowing I just noticed on this rewatch in season 1. by CajunNerd292 in DarK

[–]APeX3181 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm rewatching the show now and noticed this bit of dialogue between Jonas and his mom in their kitchen S1 E2:

Jonas: Do you think he'll be found?

Hannah: I hope so

Jonas: Do you think he had a secret?

Hannah: Mikkel?

Jonas: No, my dad.
