Ok first abolish it started as jazzland so it was sent always owned to six flags six flags buyer jazzland but the name did not change then they renamed it six flags New Orleans then Katrina goes straight for New Orleans destroying the rides and they passed that park for a reason it’s bc of Katrina and people drawing on the walls so that’s why they didn’t go there And it closed for the storm in 2005 and it was 2018 so of course they didn’t go there
Couldn't help but notice how inefficient Jim Reid-Anderson's routes are. That loop he does in Indiana is bigger than the attraction he's about to add at SFGAm.
That’s crazy that I remember Wonder Woman golden lasso being announced and now I can say I rode it two years ago :( oh how the time flies, 2018 was a good year
Daniel Busa. They haven't done anything Flash.... They haven't done anything Green Lantern. Like,really. (But,I understand why they wouldn't do Green Lantern cause of the AWFUL movie but,still......)
I would rather deal with the spiders. LMAO 6 Flags is pathetic. you know what we are getting in Dallas/Fort Worth this year? An over Sized Super Loop found at every fair, carnival, and mall parking lot festival in the country. LAME! Just went to Cedar Point this past summer. Every last one of those coasters smashed every 6 Flags Coaster into the ground and grinded it like a cockroach. Even their smallest coasters kicked 6 Flags into the dust. Sorry, truth lives. Ill deal with the spiders. It beats chewed gum stuck to everything at 6 Flags and disgusting piss covered floors in the bathrooms. Not to mention Cedar Point has its OWN resort Hotel Properties, a beach, a water Park, A boating marina.... the park is spotless and well kept. There is no comparison. Cedar Point/Fair BUILDS they do not CLONE. That is the difference. Each and every one of their rides and coasters are ORIGINAL and designed in a unique way. Not designed put into pieces, and shipped off to every park in the country, re painted, and re named. Cedar Point wins with us EVERY TIME. Or any Cedar Fair Park for that matter. I would rather fly up to Cedar Point than to drive 2 miles up the highway to our 6 Flags in Dallas. How sad is that? We have been to all the 6 Flags parks in the US. I just do not see it. Cedar Point by far is the BEST. They are after all "The Rollercoaster Capital of the World" and they have been for decades. No 6 Flags park has taken that title from them. And I do not believe they every will because 6 Flags is too cheap to spend what Cedar Fair does when they build a coaster. Just sayin....
And before we go into the Kingda Ka conversation all that was... It was an easy effortless way for 6 Flags to COPY THE COMPETITION by 29 feet to build the EXACT same thing as Top Thrill Dragster and throw in a hill at the end. Instead of being ORIGINAL and coming up with something of their OWN to defeat the competition they COPIED them almost exactly. A cowardly way to steal the tallest record from Cedar Point. But I am willing to bet Cedar Fair has something up their sleeves for the 150th anniversary coming in 2020. I have a feeling CP will be taking that title back and taking it back severely.
maybe before adding rides, you work on cleaning up your park. It always looks dirty and the bathrooms are always disgusting. Maybe get the employees to stay focused on their jobs and be more attentive to your guests. Just a thought.
It probably doesn't have a name because of hurricane Harvey...... Six Flags has the name Hurricane Force 5 trademarked, but it would be in very bad taste to build a ride like that now.
After two really solid additions with The Joker and Wonder Woman: Lasso of Truth, everyone was expecting Discovery Kingdom to have a really lame addition this year...and instead were getting a first of its kind dueling "coaster" flat ride. I'll be the first to admit it's really not technically a "coaster", but I'll take it considering this park has been spoiled lately as is, haha. My deepest and most sincere condolences to SFA, though. Also it's odd saying this but Magic Mountain is really in need of a new coaster. I have a nostalgic soft spot for Viper for sure but so much more could be done with that land especially with it being prime front of the park real estate.
I wonder what kind of parody Taylor will have on that one (not that he doesn't already have one for basically the same thing). I feel the same way you do about Viper, it's my wish that they try to pay homage to the layout while improving the design (and smoothness of course), but they'll probably put a Larson stupid Loop in there too. Rip viper :'-(
SoYouWant ToBeAnImagineer ever since CGA got Gold striker and Cedar fair planning to invest more in the park, I've noticed six flags has been giving Discovery kingdom more attention. I really hope as CGA starts to grow it will cause Discovery kingdom to add more additions and eventually become a more renown Six flags park. I'm really excited to see these two park go head to head and try to one up each other as the years go by
zoom zoom103 I think the better word to use is amusement park. Six Flags does NOT feel like a theme park. The only theming at Six Flags is the names of the coasters. When people say theme park, I think Disney, Universal, SeaWorld, Busch Gardens, LEGOLAND, Warner Bros. Movie World. You know the parks that tourists go to for an exclusive themed experience and not just for generic thrill coasters and carnival rides.
I love it! This is my favorite year for Six Flags so far this decade! Every park got something amazing (except for Six Flags America). Although my favorite announcement video will always be the one from 2016.
Patrick Kim Apparently it was supposed to be called Hurricane Force 5, but I think they held off on announcing the name due to Hurricane Harvey. And still, kinda poor taste to put an attraction named after a hurricane in a part of Six Flags Great America based off New Orleans.
How are people not talking about how the free spin isn't called The Joker. Edit: Thx for the favorite/heart thing/I don't know what it's called Taylor!
THANK YOU! EXACTLY! And these people come running and bow down to them. They can get away with it. They could put a Tilt A Whirl in call it a "Tilt A Coaster" and these people come running. Why would they spend the money to build something good these people will accept any fairground ride they put in and add the title "Coaster" to it. Shaking my damn head.
Unnamed gaming 2002 but you also have to think of how many amazing coasters six flags has . Ex: el toro, first S&S free spin, full throttle, kingda ka, etc.
Meh ... I was shaking my head in disapproval the whole time. Clones, clones, CLONES! Way too many clones! Even the RMC that Georgia is getting looks a little ... underwhelming, at least compared to other recent RMC announcements. (If you watch the POV, the ride time seems to be only about 40 seconds.) Also, it's a bummer that there are now 2 new flat rides - The groscopic spinner and the "head-to-head dueling coaster" - to dread getting clones of, instead of new roller coasters. Though, I will admit that the single-rail coaster looks pretty cool (and fortunately it's in my home state of Texas!).
Goddamnit I thought this was the funniest thing ever when it came out. During the Cyborg part: "You've never seen anything like this before!" Yeah, considering who you're theming this ride after... Too bad Cyborg wasn't part of this year's announcements.
Sorry 6 six flags...this video does not make me want to get on a plane overseas to visit your parks. There is nothing new about this. I have done a lot of rides similar to those.
Happy that Magic Mountain is rounding out their lineup of attractions. For years everyone would complain about the lack of flats but now that they've added a dark ride and about to add a huge flat everyone wants to complain about the lack of new roller coasters...🙄
Well.....Magic Mountain was designed to be the flagship roller coaster park to compete with Cedar Point so it's pretty fair that people would anticipate it receive more coasters especially when Cedar Point is constantly getting new coasters including the new Steel Vengeance RMC coaster expected to come out in the near future. If you want flat rides you have one of the best parks around called Disneyland, sure they aren't all "thrill rides" but hey you have nothing to complain about when you have 2 of the best amusement parks in all of the US not far from each other. All we have in the Bay Area is CGA and SFDK which are entry-mid level thrill and coaster attractions.
Zero-G-Worx that's true and they do claim to be the "thrill capital of the world" so I can understand the disappointment. I suppose you can't please everyone, especially within the coaster community haha. Let's hope Magic Mountain doesn't lose its identity. Hopefully they add a major coaster in the coming years.
Magic Mountain does not need flat rides. No one that complains about Magic Moutains lack of flats is even a regular visitor to Magic Moutain. They are Cedar Park or fan boys from other parks who are just jealous that Magic Moutain has so many roller coasters and puts their home parks in the dust so they pick the most mundane thing to complain about which is lack of flat rides.at.a.rollercoaster. park.?? Think about how ridiculous that sounds to people who are above average intelligence and apply objectivity. I like dark rides as much as the next person and what makes socal so great theres the mouse down the street where I can ride all the dark rides I want. If I want flat rides there's knotts 15 minutes away from the Disney. Disney owns dark rides. Magic own rollercoasters. And knotts is somewhere in between with their flats. So cal natives have options all within about an hour of eachother so why would anyone from here be complaining about the lack of flats rides at Magic Mountain? TOO many roller coasters is not a legitimate complaint at an amusepark - yet we hear it all the time from the "enthusiasts" who always find a way to bash MM. Now that we have a flat ride lets see what excuse Cedar Point and other jealous fan boys come up with next to rank down MM: "There's too many coasters in the color white at Magic Mountain so we are deducting a few points once they add mustard color coaster then the park will be complete therefore for another consecutive year CEDAR Point wins again".
c1234 s I am a native, and I completely agree with you. Cedar Fair is giving a huge lot of giga's to their parks. We go here, because knotts is just decent. We need this giga.
I'm not complaining about these announcements. Between Six Flags and Cedar Fair, there will be a variety of things to try out next year!! I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO IT!
Alex I do so since almost everyone else does it. Plus, it sickens me when people call a chain crappy for adding akin rides to parks, and while that is true, it diversifies their line-up and helps each individual park, as Jaiden stated. Take Magic Mountain, for example. Getting Justice League last year improved family rides, while their addition of Crazanity helps with their lackluster flat ride collection. While some parks at cedar fair focus too much on some aspects, like Cedar Point. Getting 4 roller coasters in the span of 6 years seems overkill, as it leaves some parks run dry.
casey helm If you are referring to Steel Vengeance, Valravn, Rougarou, and Gatekeeper as "getting" Then I would point out that they lost Wildcat, Disaster Transport, Mantis and Mean Streak over the past seven years. All these parks have to make tough decisions when they try to upgrade rider experience. Some may argue that Six Flags has had the upper hand by being first with the RMC I-box conversions, but Cedar Fair will unveil two of they're own next year. Both of there's will be longer than there originals while all the Six Flags models went shorter. I think what it boils down to for many people is execution. Cedar Fair tries to maximize quality with every dollar spent, paying close attention to detail from infrastructure to rides. Meanwhile, Six Flags seems to paint with broader strokes, touching more but truly covering less.
John Duffey It was 5 record breaking OR NA first. Worlds tallest super loop, worlds tallest frisbee, worlds first single rail, worlds first cyborg flat ride thing, and worlds first skywarp
Well, he is the Chairman, CEO, and President of the company, and Six Flags tends to have its company head take to video for the collaborative announcement!
Elijah Elijah No Six Flags 2018 > Cedar Fair 2018. The only Six Flags park that missed out on a good addition was America. I think most of these rides were needed- La Ronde got some nice family rides, St. Louis got a massive water slide, Great America got a new flat ride, Great Escape got a cool and unique family ride, Great Adventure and Over Texas got World's Firsts along with Discovery Kingdom (SFDK might not have needed a Skywarp, especially considering they got a massive frisbee this year... but oh well, they're getting spoiled now), Magic Mountain got a MUCH NEEDED flat ride- honestly, a coaster is the last thing I was hoping for-, Fiesta Texas got a coaster which IMO should have gone to America or St. Louis but I think those 2 will get a clone of this in 2019, Over Georgia got their first NEW coaster in 7 whole years, Mexico got a new coaster even though they should've waited like a year or two longer for it and gave it to St. Louis/America. But my point being, Cedar Fair spent nearly ALL the money on their 4 new coasters and just gave all the other parks the scraps, with the exception of Valleyfair and Canada's Wonderland. WoF got Nordic Chaser (Beting my bottom dollar it's a clone of Flying Canoes), a small family ride. Carowinds got a Planet Snoopy revamp (Which I was predicting that would happen), and Kings Island, Dorney Park AND Michigan's Adventure got NOTHING (or close to). You just can't say that Cedar Fair 2018 was better just because they added four new coasters; honestly, RailBlazer was disappointing and Hangtime was a little bit too. But Six Flags actually gave nearly all their parks something they needed- whether it be a new coaster (SFOG, SFFT, SFM) a new thrilling flat ride (SFDK, SFMM, SFOT, SFGADV), or just a water park expansion (SFSTL). For the most part Cedar Fair just put minimal cash into all their other parks with the exception of the 4 that got coasters. Six Flags, however, spread the money and actually gave the parks what they generally needed. So really Six Flags 2018 is better than Cedar Fair 2018, by a long shot.
That's what I'm saying. Almost everyone seems blind to the fact that outside of the 4 new roller coasters in Cedar Fair, they don't see what else is going on, or rather, what isn't. It's like someone was sheltered to watching seasons 1-3 of SpongeBob, while unaware of the crap in later seasons (honestly, knowing is a fate worse than death). But still, you are right Kw6s. Cedar Fair did invest in bulk to their known parks, including the spoiled Cedar Point (I'll say that those investments are phenomenal), while the other Six Flags parks had evenly-split investments.
casey helm I am aware about the flat rides, yes we know that six flags did an overall better job at evenly distributing rides. But what I am saying is next year I would be more interested in visiting the 3 cedar point parks than six flags one based off of new attractions I mean it depends on your perspective. Me personally I only make a few trips a year of parks outside of my driving range so new rides factors into it. And cedar far did get new flat rides to all of there parks except Michigan adventure. Not as good as six flags but as far as the top goes I would rather ride hangtime,and the two rmc rather than the two six flags coasters so I guess it really depends. Cedar point is more top heavy and six flags is more evenly spread. My home park is six flags over Georgia and I personally like Carowinds better even though it's an extra 3 hours away. I will still visit but I understand everyone's points.
Yes, that's true and is why I'm extremely pissed off. I mean, all they're doing is making it 30% longer. They had me pumped for a flat ride and yet this is all we get. This park never gets money put into it.
Here is what i would put in six flags in 2022 Over texas B&M Hyper Over Georgia Sky line sky warp America Rmc Raptor Great America Rmc T rex St louis Sky rocket ll Feasta Texas Cyborg cyber spin Magic Mountian B&M Giga Great Adventure kiddie expantion Laronde Rmc Raptor Great Escape S&S Freespin New England Intamin Strata Discovery Kingdom Intamin Impulse Frontier City Shy rocket ll Darrin lake Rmc Predador
1. Over Texas already has a hyper (Titan).. It’s a Giovanola hyper, which is basically B&M. 2. Why would you WANT a Skywarp? I’ve ridden the one at Discovery Kingdom and it’s awful 3. An RMC Raptor at SFA is solid. I could even see it happening. 4. A Sky Rocket II at SFStL is also solid. I could it see it happening as well. 5. I could see SFFT adding a Tourbillon, but why theme it to Harley Quinn? 6. Magic Mountain isn’t getting a Giga. Sorry. Stop asking for it because it isn’t happening. 7. Kiddie expansion at SFGAv? Alright. Fair. 8. RMC Raptor at La Ronde? HAHAHAHA no. 9. I doubt it. Great Escape isn’t a thrill park. 10. There’s absolutely no way that’s happening. I doubt Intamin will build another Strata for a very, very long time. 11. Discovery Kingdom already has an impulse... 12. Sure, I could see Frontier City getting a Sky Rocket II. 13. I can’t see Darien Lake ever RMCing Predator. It’s just not the park for that.
@@triple7marc dude I'm talking about if six flags was under my ownership also I'm B&M treatment titan and Improving the skywarp next magic mountain deserves a giga Laronde needs to stop getting treated like crap I'm getting rid of the old impulse and giving it a new full circuit impulse I'm not theming the cyborg ride to Harleyquinn I'm theming it to a rodeo
I find it interesting how some rides changed between this video's release and the parks' openings. For example, Carnaval en Folie at La Ronde was reduced from three family rides to one (Tourbillon at Avenue Adventure), and the name for Six Flags Great America's Giga Loop ride wasn't announced yet (it ended up being Mardi Gras Hangover).
Most of these new rides can be found in your neighborhood McDonald's play area! Cedar Fair, this is your time to eliminate the competition! Nail in coffin
J Will! AGREE WITH YOU 500% Nothing Compares to Cedar Point or Cedar Fair Parks. They BUILD not CLONE. And Cedar Fair is a much smaller company than 6 Flags if they can afford to build MEGA coasters and amazing rides there is NO EXCUSE for this pathetic carnival garbage 6 Flags puts in. Long Live the ROLLERCOASTER CAPITAL OF THE WORLD!!!! CEDAR POINT!
One foreshortened RMC, one single-rail RMC, one Skywarp, one Larson Loop, one Free Fly, SFA getting the shaft again, two Giant Discoveries, one of those things Quassy got, and two Tourbillons.
Six flags is so sad lmao. I just want one year where they beat Cedar Fair in rides lmao. Also love the beginning and end saying "best line up of rides and attractions in the world" (lie) "we always measure up to your highest expectations" (most disappointing year yet)
Better than last year, and Cedar Fair is mainly adding awesome things to a few places and the rest get, eh. And it's not as spread out as how Six flags done this year if you think about it. So, not disappointing.
I wouldn't say I'm disappointed to the level of saying "wow" but yeah it's not exactly mind blowing either. We're getting that Harley Quinn ride but with an even worse name down at Magic Mountain... shame.
It saddens me that Taylor’s only video to get over 1 million views isn’t even one of the videos he put a lot of hard work into like his Coaster Parodies or the Save My Park Documentary.
Make sure to check out my analysis of all the new rides here! ua-cam.com/video/fR2oozlMO4E/v-deo.html

That’s crazy that I remember Wonder Woman golden lasso being announced and now I can say I rode it two years ago :( oh how the time flies, 2018 was a good year
The rides look fantastic but this video is proof that six flags needs to trademark some new names
Daniel Busa they already have all dc and Warner brothers stuff (loony tunes) they even have characters like Scooby Doo
How many rides have they named the Joker?????
Daniel Busa. They haven't done anything Flash....
They haven't done anything Green Lantern.

Six flags school of naming rides:
"CraZanity"
"Cyborg's Cyber Spin"
Lmao😂😂😂😂
horrid, but also cringe af
Is it bad that I prefer CraZanity to having 3 completely separate styles of ride all named Harley Quinn across the country?
Nicho Insertlastnamehere ikr
Don't forget the SpinSanities too. ;)
"Wonder Woman Coaster"
New for SixFlags in 2017:
Bad CGI to shoehorn the boss into the video.
They tried to make the trees move by warping them
At least they aren’t Kentucky Kingdom
After two really solid additions with The Joker and Wonder Woman: Lasso of Truth, everyone was expecting Discovery Kingdom to have a really lame addition this year...and instead were getting a first of its kind dueling "coaster" flat ride.

That wonder women ride is basically the joker in new jersey

Why would they spend the money to build something good these people will accept any fairground ride they put in and add the title "Coaster" to it. Shaking my damn head.
"Thrill Capital of The World" - adds a generic ride you can find at literally any other amusement park out there.

Dracula VI Free spins are okay, and TTD is better than Kingda Ka
Spirit Of The Holidays you're such a cedar fair fanboy lol
Meh ... I was shaking my head in disapproval the whole time. Clones, clones, CLONES! Way too many clones! Even the RMC that Georgia is getting looks a little ... underwhelming, at least compared to other recent RMC announcements. (If you watch the POV, the ride time seems to be only about 40 seconds.) Also, it's a bummer that there are now 2 new flat rides - The groscopic spinner and the "head-to-head dueling coaster" - to dread getting clones of, instead of new roller coasters.
Though, I will admit that the single-rail coaster looks pretty cool (and fortunately it's in my home state of Texas!).
Twotorule lol only starwars fans will get it
alkankondo89 Looks lame. Most rides have little innovation. Just copies of other carnival rides. Only New looking rude is wonder woman monorail rude.
@@AssassinCreep2552 Did you mean ride?
Kelvin Forde You’re lame!
Typical Six Flags "record breakers"
evan Ilic dude you don't see this many going I to other parks chill out
*Worlds largest stupid loop*
Paul Mills We've got Jim Reid Anderson in disguise here, or just the world's biggest (ha, a record breaker) Six Flags fanboy.
they don't even have a name for the tallest super loop
Wtf?? SFGE are actually getting a ride and not a bench!!!!
It's actually not That bad it's better than last year
gftg fdt anything is better than last year
Goddamnit I thought this was the funniest thing ever when it came out. During the Cyborg part: "You've never seen anything like this before!" Yeah, considering who you're theming this ride after...
Too bad Cyborg wasn't part of this year's announcements.
Six Flags Great America calling up Larson like, uuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhh, can I get a uuuhhh, BONELESS Superloop? And make it the tallest while your at it.
Sorry 6 six flags...this video does not make me want to get on a plane overseas to visit your parks. There is nothing new about this. I have done a lot of rides similar to those.
From what I hear, Six Flags isn't really known for its originality
@@thegoodmudkip3652 money. They got no money
@@Valhalla05 I see
Happy that Magic Mountain is rounding out their lineup of attractions. For years everyone would complain about the lack of flats but now that they've added a dark ride and about to add a huge flat everyone wants to complain about the lack of new roller coasters...🙄
Well.....Magic Mountain was designed to be the flagship roller coaster park to compete with Cedar Point so it's pretty fair that people would anticipate it receive more coasters especially when Cedar Point is constantly getting new coasters including the new Steel Vengeance RMC coaster expected to come out in the near future. If you want flat rides you have one of the best parks around called Disneyland, sure they aren't all "thrill rides" but hey you have nothing to complain about when you have 2 of the best amusement parks in all of the US not far from each other. All we have in the Bay Area is CGA and SFDK which are entry-mid level thrill and coaster attractions.
Zero-G-Worx that's true and they do claim to be the "thrill capital of the world" so I can understand the disappointment. I suppose you can't please everyone, especially within the coaster community haha. Let's hope Magic Mountain doesn't lose its identity. Hopefully they add a major coaster in the coming years.
2021 is SFMM 50th anniversary. It could be they are intelligently conserving resources for a major announcement for that year.
Magic Mountain does not need flat rides.
No one that complains about Magic Moutains lack of flats is even a regular visitor to Magic Moutain. They are Cedar Park or fan boys from other parks who are just jealous that Magic Moutain has so many roller coasters and puts their home parks in the dust so they pick the most mundane thing to complain about which is lack of flat rides.at.a.rollercoaster. park.??
Think about how ridiculous that sounds to people who are above average intelligence and apply objectivity. I like dark rides as much as the next person and what makes socal so great theres the mouse down the street where I can ride all the dark rides I want. If I want flat rides there's knotts 15 minutes away from the Disney. Disney owns dark rides. Magic own rollercoasters. And knotts is somewhere in between with their flats.
So cal natives have options all within about an hour of eachother so why would anyone from here be complaining about the lack of flats rides at Magic Mountain? TOO many roller coasters is not a legitimate complaint at an amusepark - yet we hear it all the time from the "enthusiasts" who always find a way to bash MM.
Now that we have a flat ride lets see what excuse Cedar Point and other jealous fan boys come up with next to rank down MM:
"There's too many coasters in the color white at Magic Mountain so we are deducting a few points once they add mustard color coaster then the park will be complete therefore for another consecutive year CEDAR Point wins again".
c1234 s I am a native, and I completely agree with you. Cedar Fair is giving a huge lot of giga's to their parks. We go here, because knotts is just decent. We need this giga.
In 2029 or 2031! Six Flags St Louis presents The New Ninga a B&M hyper coaster. Tallest coaster in Missouri 405 feet tall!
I'm not complaining about these announcements. Between Six Flags and Cedar Fair, there will be a variety of things to try out next year!! I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO IT!
FINALLY!!! Someone who isn't bias towards Cedar Fair. It really pisses me off with those people, but you don't seem to be that way. There is a god!
casey helm Why would you put Six flags at the same level of Cedar Fair?
Alex I do so since almost everyone else does it. Plus, it sickens me when people call a chain crappy for adding akin rides to parks, and while that is true, it diversifies their line-up and helps each individual park, as Jaiden stated. Take Magic Mountain, for example. Getting Justice League last year improved family rides, while their addition of Crazanity helps with their lackluster flat ride collection. While some parks at cedar fair focus too much on some aspects, like Cedar Point. Getting 4 roller coasters in the span of 6 years seems overkill, as it leaves some parks run dry.
casey helm If you are referring to Steel Vengeance, Valravn, Rougarou, and Gatekeeper as "getting" Then I would point out that they lost Wildcat, Disaster Transport, Mantis and Mean Streak over the past seven years. All these parks have to make tough decisions when they try to upgrade rider experience. Some may argue that Six Flags has had the upper hand by being first with the RMC I-box conversions, but Cedar Fair will unveil two of they're own next year. Both of there's will be longer than there originals while all the Six Flags models went shorter. I think what it boils down to for many people is execution. Cedar Fair tries to maximize quality with every dollar spent, paying close attention to detail from infrastructure to rides. Meanwhile, Six Flags seems to paint with broader strokes, touching more but truly covering less.
2018 looks amazing! cant wait for the single rail coaster!!!
I was pretty happy with six flags 2018 additions
Nick Nuzzi we all should be
Luciano Alonso most people arent😂
Coaster Jaiden agh it's pretty close lol but other than the RMC at cf they're other rides were nothing
There's already a Harley quinn spinsanity ride at over Texas. It's just different
*five record breaking attractions Anderson.*
John Duffey Well said Duffey 😂
John Duffey It was 5 record breaking OR NA first. Worlds tallest super loop, worlds tallest frisbee, worlds first single rail, worlds first cyborg flat ride thing, and worlds first skywarp
Fight
Fight
Fight
“Nothing like you’ve ever seen before!”
*proceeds to show the ride in every park*
Thats interesting for discovery kingdom
I know, especially considering they already have a loop "coaster". However I do think this is going to be much better
Yay Jim Reid Anderson is back
RIP six flags america 😂
gftg fdt yep 😣
gftg fdt
That park is horrible... im sure it would gey alot more attendance if they invested more. There is a high population within driving distance
gftg fdt yep, it's my home park and this was the final straw. It's getting so boring and I won't get a new pass until they get a new coaster, period.
Right😂😂😂
Wow, exciting my closest park is getting new scenery on the lazy river. I guess it is a little better then 3 rides for Planet Snoopy.
I thought the beginning was an ad for motorcycle insurance that UA-cam wouldn't let me skip
Why is it Jim Reid Anderson. I ain't complaining tho.
Edit: alright kind of complaining
Boi
Well, he is the Chairman, CEO, and President of the company, and Six Flags tends to have its company head take to video for the collaborative announcement!
Mr Doggo John Duffey left.
National Coaster News ya I didn't know that
Jim Reid-Anderson is this really true announcements
Its crazy the way they treat Six Flags america
I mean I get it, its fairly new in comparison, but they still treat it like it doesn't matter, which at this point it basically doesn't
can't believe how they are calling cyborg a worlds first
Jim Anderson may be Six Flags CEO and Chairman but we guests are the boss!
The freaking intro made me laugh🤣🤣🤣 he is photoshopped on a road holding a bike omg lol🤣🤣🤣
Jeez I don't get why it's always so stormy when they introduce these new rides
Six Flags Great Adventure gets that Cyborg thing. I'm excited. Sees that another park has it.
Six Flags lied to us
Atleast Im getting the same thing in MY home park.
wouldnt be the first time they lied
I go to six flags great America a lot. I went Sunday and saw the new ride and said it was gonna be finished this summer can't wait!!!!
“We have the best lineup”
(Cedar point has entered the chat)
Just happened to come across this and noticed it had a million+ views. Congrats!
2:30 IT'S NOT A COASTER!
congrats on 1M!
I feel like six flags America got screwed over for next year
DONAVAN GRIFFIN yeah
Because SFA is a step child park. In fact they should just shut it down.
Look the same coaster with different paint jobs. Super innovative guys.
Cedar fair 2018 >Six flags 2018
Elijah Elijah agree
Elijah Elijah No Six Flags 2018 > Cedar Fair 2018. The only Six Flags park that missed out on a good addition was America. I think most of these rides were needed- La Ronde got some nice family rides, St. Louis got a massive water slide, Great America got a new flat ride, Great Escape got a cool and unique family ride, Great Adventure and Over Texas got World's Firsts along with Discovery Kingdom (SFDK might not have needed a Skywarp, especially considering they got a massive frisbee this year... but oh well, they're getting spoiled now), Magic Mountain got a MUCH NEEDED flat ride- honestly, a coaster is the last thing I was hoping for-, Fiesta Texas got a coaster which IMO should have gone to America or St. Louis but I think those 2 will get a clone of this in 2019, Over Georgia got their first NEW coaster in 7 whole years, Mexico got a new coaster even though they should've waited like a year or two longer for it and gave it to St. Louis/America. But my point being, Cedar Fair spent nearly ALL the money on their 4 new coasters and just gave all the other parks the scraps, with the exception of Valleyfair and Canada's Wonderland. WoF got Nordic Chaser (Beting my bottom dollar it's a clone of Flying Canoes), a small family ride. Carowinds got a Planet Snoopy revamp (Which I was predicting that would happen), and Kings Island, Dorney Park AND Michigan's Adventure got NOTHING (or close to). You just can't say that Cedar Fair 2018 was better just because they added four new coasters; honestly, RailBlazer was disappointing and Hangtime was a little bit too. But Six Flags actually gave nearly all their parks something they needed- whether it be a new coaster (SFOG, SFFT, SFM) a new thrilling flat ride (SFDK, SFMM, SFOT, SFGADV), or just a water park expansion (SFSTL). For the most part Cedar Fair just put minimal cash into all their other parks with the exception of the 4 that got coasters. Six Flags, however, spread the money and actually gave the parks what they generally needed. So really Six Flags 2018 is better than Cedar Fair 2018, by a long shot.
Kw6sTheater 4 things steel vengeance twisted timbers railblazer and hangtime
That's what I'm saying. Almost everyone seems blind to the fact that outside of the 4 new roller coasters in Cedar Fair, they don't see what else is going on, or rather, what isn't. It's like someone was sheltered to watching seasons 1-3 of SpongeBob, while unaware of the crap in later seasons (honestly, knowing is a fate worse than death). But still, you are right Kw6s. Cedar Fair did invest in bulk to their known parks, including the spoiled Cedar Point (I'll say that those investments are phenomenal), while the other Six Flags parks had evenly-split investments.
casey helm I am aware about the flat rides, yes we know that six flags did an overall better job at evenly distributing rides. But what I am saying is next year I would be more interested in visiting the 3 cedar point parks than six flags one based off of new attractions I mean it depends on your perspective. Me personally I only make a few trips a year of parks outside of my driving range so new rides factors into it. And cedar far did get new flat rides to all of there parks except Michigan adventure. Not as good as six flags but as far as the top goes I would rather ride hangtime,and the two rmc rather than the two six flags coasters so I guess it really depends. Cedar point is more top heavy and six flags is more evenly spread. My home park is six flags over Georgia and I personally like Carowinds better even though it's an extra 3 hours away. I will still visit but I understand everyone's points.
These Six Flags additions are WAY BETTER than last year. Plus an RMC at my home park. This is awesome.
Six Flags St.Louis 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
birca04 here in Canada we took the biggest L out of everyone
birca04 that's a amazing addition!!
They got screwed
Well here at SFA I'm sure we'd all rather have that than a "river adventure" which is basically a lazy river...
I was expecting worse
Outstanding year of more carnival rides
SFA ALREADY HAS A FREAKIN LAZY RIVER!!! That's what the "river adventure" is sounding like to me :/
Yes, that's true and is why I'm extremely pissed off. I mean, all they're doing is making it 30% longer. They had me pumped for a flat ride and yet this is all we get. This park never gets money put into it.
Yep. All they're doing is making it 30% longer. Very disappointing.
1 Million views! Congrats!
Here is what i would put in six flags in 2022
Over texas B&M Hyper
Over Georgia Sky line sky warp
America Rmc Raptor
Great America Rmc T rex
St louis Sky rocket ll
Feasta Texas Cyborg cyber spin
Magic Mountian B&M Giga
Great Adventure kiddie expantion
Laronde Rmc Raptor
Great Escape S&S Freespin
New England Intamin Strata
Discovery Kingdom Intamin Impulse
Frontier City Shy rocket ll
Darrin lake Rmc Predador
1. Over Texas already has a hyper (Titan).. It’s a Giovanola hyper, which is basically B&M.
2. Why would you WANT a Skywarp? I’ve ridden the one at Discovery Kingdom and it’s awful
3. An RMC Raptor at SFA is solid. I could even see it happening.
4. A Sky Rocket II at SFStL is also solid. I could it see it happening as well.
5. I could see SFFT adding a Tourbillon, but why theme it to Harley Quinn?
6. Magic Mountain isn’t getting a Giga. Sorry. Stop asking for it because it isn’t happening.
7. Kiddie expansion at SFGAv? Alright. Fair.
8. RMC Raptor at La Ronde? HAHAHAHA no.
9. I doubt it. Great Escape isn’t a thrill park.
10. There’s absolutely no way that’s happening. I doubt Intamin will build another Strata for a very, very long time.
11. Discovery Kingdom already has an impulse...
12. Sure, I could see Frontier City getting a Sky Rocket II.
13. I can’t see Darien Lake ever RMCing Predator. It’s just not the park for that.
@@triple7marc dude I'm talking about if six flags was under my ownership also I'm B&M treatment titan and Improving the skywarp next magic mountain deserves a giga Laronde needs to stop getting treated like crap I'm getting rid of the old impulse and giving it a new full circuit impulse I'm not theming the cyborg ride to Harleyquinn I'm theming it to a rodeo
Jayden Crist Yeah I know!
@@triple7marc oh
I find it interesting how some rides changed between this video's release and the parks' openings. For example, Carnaval en Folie at La Ronde was reduced from three family rides to one (Tourbillon at Avenue Adventure), and the name for Six Flags Great America's Giga Loop ride wasn't announced yet (it ended up being Mardi Gras Hangover).
SFA has been teasing something "incredible" for about a month and all we get is an upgrade of the current lazy river.
Congratulations on one mil
I feel lied to.
I'm so glad that Cyclone at Six Flags over Georgia is getting an iron horse treatment of sorts. It's going to be awesom!
What about New Orleans? 😂
Zombie Apocalypse ride?
zombieland the ride
SuperSanicSpeed Six Flags............Alligators Wild Hogs Swamp Country
IDIOT!!!
SuperSanicSpeed -_-
This sounds like a great year in my opinion
Most of these new rides can be found in your neighborhood McDonald's play area! Cedar Fair, this is your time to eliminate the competition! Nail in coffin
I don't think a water ride is at Mc Donalds. If you don't like Six flags then don't comment on here. Get a life.
babecat2000
LMAO! Like you have a life...
J Will! AGREE WITH YOU 500% Nothing Compares to Cedar Point or Cedar Fair Parks. They BUILD not CLONE. And Cedar Fair is a much smaller company than 6 Flags if they can afford to build MEGA coasters and amazing rides there is NO EXCUSE for this pathetic carnival garbage 6 Flags puts in. Long Live the ROLLERCOASTER CAPITAL OF THE WORLD!!!! CEDAR POINT!
YES JIM REID ANDERSON IS BACK
Six flags is so bad at naming rides its actually starting to piss me off
AnimalzyNL I like Cyborg Cyber Spin
AnimalzyNL Crazanity. CRAZANITY.
Still don't beat Cedar Fair, I mean Flight Deck and calling a Drop Tower Drop Tower?
Adam Smith True lmao... I mean, it can't be that hard to think of some decent names for companies the size of cedar fair and six flags right?
That intro reminded me of the Thrillville Off The Rails Intro
My home park is six flags America and we get a river to our waterpark? What kinda bs is this?
jj-spe best Just go to Kings Dominion and ride the new RMC
All mine gets is some giant loop thing you can ride at a carnival..
One foreshortened RMC, one single-rail RMC, one Skywarp, one Larson Loop, one Free Fly, SFA getting the shaft again, two Giant Discoveries, one of those things Quassy got, and two Tourbillons.
2021 and still have none of these lol
sixflags ride designer: how many new designs do you want
sixflad ceo: just like 3 or 4, we can just change the name and color if we us it twice
4:24 that’s a lie not the first head to head dueling coaster The Smiler was.
JD04 the smiler doesn’t duel. 😒 Beside it is not a coaster.
Sudais Habib I think they’re referring to the accident that happened.
I’m here for SixFlags New England but my fav amusement park is SixFlags Great Adventure 🔥🔥🔥 I can’t wait for these 💜
Six flags is so sad lmao. I just want one year where they beat Cedar Fair in rides lmao. Also love the beginning and end saying "best line up of rides and attractions in the world" (lie) "we always measure up to your highest expectations" (most disappointing year yet)
Better than last year, and Cedar Fair is mainly adding awesome things to a few places and the rest get, eh. And it's not as spread out as how Six flags done this year if you think about it.
So, not disappointing.
Yes! Finally Magic Mountin got a flat ride! Thank you!
Anderson should've used google maps
TY FOR COMING BACK 😓
wow what a disappointment... had my hopes up high... only excited for rmc georgia cyclone, thank god it's a great year for cedar fair. smh
Six Flags Fiesta Texas Kid Yea Wonder Woman too but I like the theming for Rail blazer better.
Six Flags Fiesta Texas Kid Yes Wonder Woman Coaster will clones at Six Flags Magic Mountain?
I wouldn't say I'm disappointed to the level of saying "wow" but yeah it's not exactly mind blowing either. We're getting that Harley Quinn ride but with an even worse name down at Magic Mountain... shame.
It saddens me that Taylor’s only video to get over 1 million views isn’t even one of the videos he put a lot of hard work into like his Coaster Parodies or the Save My Park Documentary.
I can't identified Jim Reed Anderson's accent.
Coaster Crave six flags accset
He was born in Iraq
Pretty excited for the spinsanity down here at six flags over Texas!
lmao of course the only six flags close to me gets crappy stuff every year #sfadeservesbetter
Ava Barrios MAKE SIX FLAGS AMERICA GREAT AGAIN
Think about St Louis
Ava Barrios IKR! We want an actual ride! Not just some "river adventure" that is basically just a lazy river (which we already have)
Ava Barrios The year after this, I expect a new coaster for you guys so
Ava Barrios I live near the great escape... at least you have a good park
I love six flags😇 the cyborg one looks sick bro
