The New Texas Giant the greatest addition of the decade and it started a new roller coaster revolution with RMC.
They shouldn’t of removed the original Harley Quinn spinsanity, they could’ve just re-themed it to any other villain...
Like cyborg or something. But I guess they have sidewinder over by titan
Apparently it was themed to Harley Quinn because the Joker ride was right next to it.
Yeah but they could’ve rethemed the original to poison ivy or something
It wasn't reliable.
The had to put it next to joker because you know why
Great job on this. I miss the 2000-2009 Six flags when the park had a much better value to it.
RIP Crazy Legs😣
😭😭
It made me sad when the rocket and Texas chute our was removed because I never got to ride them...I was little and scared of heights, now I’m not scared of heights but I missed my chance
Texas Chute Out was a fun ride. You can still ride one at Great Adventure. I won’t say you missed much not getting to ride the Looping Starship. 😂😂😂
The rocket was a fun ride. I rode that a couple of times. The chute out I never ridden on
Ye me too
JB Thrills same here bro
I actually got to ride the Texas chute out
You've done an amazing job with this! Your work is seriously underrated and I hope we get to see more of these.
How well was the glow parade recieved back then? It looks great and I think I'd want to experience it if they brought it back!
Thank you! I think people loved the parade. It was a pretty high value production for the park at the time that only lasted two summers, unfortunately. The only other amazing thing like this that has happened in my life was Coobrila. Primarily the first year in 2007. 2008 was very phoned in.
Great video. I would love to see more of these videos, especially if you did 80's and 90's because that's when I went as a kid. I missed all the 2000's and I wasn't alive in the 60's or 70's, but it would be nice to see what I missed too.
I’m just crossing my fingers that a Shock Wave removal isn’t something that happens next year 🤞Great video!
I don’t see that happening.
Amusement Source I meant next decade haha my bad
Feel like a b&m coaster on the water like mako next to judge Roy scream would be nice with wing coaster or a GCI between new Texas giant & titan would make the line up nice.
Super Flow that would never happen cuz SF is too cheap to buy a B&M
Realistically, It could be a RMC raptor or a S&S launch coaster.
You did an excellent job researching for this series; thank you! I loved the 50th anniversary celebration, in 2011-12. I liked seeing all the old signs reminding guests of what attractions used to be there, like Pac-Man.
wow cool video. Its nice to see videos and reviews of our Texas parks.
I really wish Six Flags would pay more attention and give the park some much needed love.
The park has a ton of new upper management and things are already looking for the better!
Man acne rocket hit hard, I forgot about all the rides that got demolished.
I really wish Sixflags would put more attention into the park especially with DFW being one of the fastest growing urban areas . Here is a crazy thought what if Sixflags were to ask for some kind of tax incentive for SFOT since the city of Arlington like to throw money at developers. They could promise the tallest something rollercoaster and say it will bring in more tourism and the city will buy it up real quick.
Better hope they can just survive unscathed at this point.
@@AmusementSource I pretty sure this is going to setback Sixflags another 10 years causing parks like SFOT to suffer more.
According to EVERY coaster enthusiasts this is one of the best six flags parks and I agree this park is HUGE and when u look at it from the enterstate it’s sooooo amazing and this park on a sunny days easily one of the best experience
I would disagree. I feel this parks operations were less professional during my visit compared to Fiesta Texas. Masks were not being enforced consistently and even ride operators were not wearing them correctly. The single rider back seat rule kills me. And trying to find a working water fountain I found to be rather difficult in comparison to Fiesta Texas. Yea, you can argue SFOT overall has better coasters. But I honestly preferred SFFT when it comes to coasters and how the park is run.
Dona Lamb SFFT is where it’s really at!💯
Joy im not a fiesta texas fan i rlly only go there for Iron rattler and sometimes wonder woman i just think its ify but its a good park i just think over texas is better it has its up and downs but its still amazing
Allannah Abdullah SFOT is still a good park - I just much prefer SFFT for all the reasons Dona said above. I also think the coasters are better at SFFT
Joy Yeah they have good coasters got to give it that credit but also it just dont make since like boomarang rlly had me lost the vibe for the park 🤣😂. iron rattler is better then texas giant tho
I went from 1974 - 1989, every year, split between Astro World and Six Flags. What a great time. I went to Six Flags once more in super late 1990's or early 2000's. Interesting, but had to many rides that made you sick. Not enough water anything, long lines, a clear decline, and the entire point of Six Flags over Texas, it is about Texas. Price point and theme's have kept me from coming back, and the fact that they got rid of Astro World, big mistake there. Turned me off so bad, I have not even been to Six Flags Fiesta Texas, and how long has that been open??, Although, thanks to your channel, I will be booking for next year there, as at least they keep their theme true, Fiesta, southwest/Mexican/TexMex/German/Polish/Cezch...etc. You know all about Texas, which was the entire point of Six Flags. the first one. The Greed killed it. Once the Bankers got it, they ruin everything they touch. Great Show.
I feel like this is a bot comment
RIP Texas Shootout. I forgot that was my 1st thrill ride omg
I'm going to miss all the old stuff that I grew up with. Sad to see things change.
I hated the "More Flags, More Fun" campaign.
Watching this while eating cheese fries from granny’s grill in the park lol
🤌😂
I love SFGAm’s Triple Play, which I think is the same model as the former Crazy Legs. Huge loss 😔
So basically a decrease in Qualtity
It is a roller coaster with the company. There will be a handful of years where quality increases. Then a handful of years where they drive it into the ground. The cycle is sure to continue until they have to start selling parks off.
@@AmusementSource Makes sense
Projector on battle for metropolis is so dim.
Are you doing one about six flags fiesta texas??
If that’s what the people want!
@@AmusementSource yes PLEASE
Yes please... I always been curious about Fiesta Texas since it's still a baby compared to the other parks that were built in the great entertainment boom of the 70's.
I wish that flashback was just moved to a different part of the park.
Park is landlocked
I wish I understood why they took out some of those iconic Looney Tunes kids rides and replaced them with a wooden playground 🙄😂
All rides and structures meet the end of their life. I can guarantee that it was the case for a number of the attractions removed.
Ya missed the VR headsets on Shockwave
There’s plenty of other things that happened, of course, that we didn’t feature in this quick video. That’s why visiting our in-depth history timeline is important. ;)
All the constant changes, and for little to no reason. The park lost its unique identity of the flags of different countries -areas you could explore with themed rides and restaurants. They opted for corporate comic movie and cartoon characters. That would be fine for a different park, but it's not Six Flags Over Texas!! What the hell? They ruined the original park just like Disney is killing their parks now too
Enough with the movie IP themes. Get back to creating one of a kind environments.
How do you know the new CEO will improve things?
Nobody knows. Investors have essentially taken all control over how the company operates for the quick buck. But he has visited all the parks and is concerned with the lack of quality. He’s admitted that they need to improve customer service and guest experience. He was also the one who put out the stock warning because the company wasn’t as in good of shape as the old CEO tried to push. I also received a survey asking me about falling apart buildings, eating area quality, customer service, etc. It is just my glimmer of positive hope that he will be given a chance.
@@AmusementSource That alone seems it will save six flags
@@AmusementSource That sounds a bit promising I'd say.
I miss Panda Express 😣
😍😍😍
I honestly dont like how you can see the outside roads from this park. It's unaesthetic.
2010 Six flags started cutting Entertainment at many parks. It’s all good until fright fest at Sfgadv... that parks entertainment is starting to become plain sad lol... how is FF at SFOT?
I thought the ACME ship, came from Astroworld?
The main structure came from SFOG after it was removed to make way for their Goliath coaster. I don’t doubt that it is made up of parts from both rides as it was already somewhat obsolete when it arrived at SFOT.
I just looked back on an old satellite image of SFOT and there are tons of extra Starship parts in the parking lot, though the ride was already constructed and operating.
Amusement Source, it’s all good, thanks for doing the research. I guess I mislead myself.
It isn’t super clear information. I was working at the park around the time so had a bit of an advantage in that aspect.
