Six Flags Magic Mountain

Not enough space for that ro realistically happen. Remember, Tatsu does curve around the Sky Tower in close proximity.

As for Lex Luthor, I hate the idea of losing the 400ft drop tower. I wish there was a way they could save it (and for the love all things themed... ENCLOSE. THE. DAMN. PATHWAY/LOAD AREA!!). Freefall/upward launch rides are simplistic & fun. The park needs it. But at the same time, it might need to be relocated to be within the actual DC Universe/Metropolis land(s).

I mean, it'd be pretty cool if we got a Flacon's Fury type drop tower instead....

Is that the one that tilts you forward before dropping?

If so, I'd rather not have extra gimmicks. This is Magic Mountain. Let's just keep it simple & easy to maintain

gonna argue a S&S Flip Tower ride, like what I think Qiddya is getting would be a hell of a icon attraction

if they can keep the existing tower (i have no idea how feasible that is), it'll be the tallest drop ride in the country. i think that brings plenty of juice.

Just a heads up for those playing at home

Currently the park is operating Friday-Monday. Closed Tuesday-Thursday.

However, once next month rolls around, the park will be operational everyday as of March 11th-April 28th.

From April 28th, it'll be back to closed Tues-Thurs until May 20th, when everyday operations resume

Currently the park is operating Friday-Monday. Closed Tuesday-Thursday.

Do you have any insight on what the rationale for this is? Why operate Mondays at all? Are there enough full-timers on staff that it makes for them to run four-day-a-week operations? Or does it have more to do with the pair of school holidays coming up this month?

Honestly. I'm not sure. When i worked there, it was during the Open 365 Day operations.

I understand the apocalypse made them revert back to their old ways of "weekends only" operations, but it still surprises me. Knotts is D.E.A.D. monday-friday, but they're still open everyday. I know Magic Mountain isn't exactly "nearby", but still.

If i had known it was open today, I would've dragged my butt up there. Now I gotta wait until I have a Monday off
