Continue reading “Six Flags Magic Mountain Update – March 13th 2016”
Northern California has been subjected to some crazy and unfortunate weather over the past few weeks, and as a result, making trips out to the wonderful Six Flags Discovery Kingdom has proved a bit tricky. After checking the park’s website this morning and seeing it wasn’t closed despite the weather I made the hour and a half drive out to once again capture the speedy construction of what is sure to be a legendary coaster, The Joker. Continue reading “The Joker Construction Update #8”
With all the craziness going on elsewhere around the state, we can’t forget that Knott’s Berry Farm is undergoing major changes as well!

Today’s update takes a look at all that, ride refurbishments, Boysenberry Festival, and a whole lot more! Continue reading “Knott’s Berry Farm Update – March 12th 2016”
Since I was unable to attend the actual New Revolution tour on Thursday, Six Flags Magic Mountain PR was incredibly kind to offer me a personal tour of The New Revolution, the day after! Luckily a lot can change in a day, so I may have a few things in this report you haven’t seen before. The ride started testing Thursday night, and is testing as I’m writing this today (Saturday). In this tour report we’ll look at the new area, the continued repaint, the new trains, new signage, the VR system, and quite more. Let’s get to it! Continue reading “Personal New Revolution Tour!”
After the tour I took at Six Flags Magic Mountain for The New Revolution (which will be posted later today), I headed to Universal Studios Hollywood to take a look at the newly opened retail center in front of the park, as well as the newly refurbished Jurassic Park- The Ride. In this (quite short) update we’ll be focusing on these two, with a complete look at some of the upgraded Dinosaurs! Continue reading “Universal Studios Hollywood Update – Jurassic Park 2016 Refurbishment”
What happens when Bring a Free Friend Day coincides with a Cheer Championship, and nice weather? Hell is created! Six Flags Magic Mountain reached capacity early on in the afternoon, having to send hundreds of cars away. It was awesome to see the park with this attendance, though it wasn’t very enjoyable 😛 . Though I just posted a New Revolution Update, in this update we’ll be taking a look around the park itself, and the crazy crowds of course! Continue reading “Six Flags Magic Mountain at Capacity + Quick Update”
So I went to Six Flags Magic Mountain today for a New Revolution Update. Little did I expect that my usual 5 minute drive to the park’s parking lot turned into a 60 minute one. The park reached parking capacity, and it took me 90 minutes to park and get inside the park. So keep in mind the hell I went through to get this update. I’ll also be posting a regular Six Flags Magic Mountain update with pictures of the wonderful crowds! Let’s start taking a look at The New Revolution and the renewed Six Flags Plaza! Continue reading “The New Revolution Update – February 28th”

After six long hours of baking in the sun in front of Hogsmeade… The Wizarding World of Harry Potter opened for guests to enjoy for the rest of the day. As it was ‘soft’ opened there are still tweaks that will be made… but let me start off with saying that the experience was already incredible! Immersive, exciting, and so intensely detailed you will discover amazing book and movie references in every direction you look. Let’s take a look! Continue reading “Exploring the Wizarding World of Harry Potter”
Today was a wonderful day out, weather wise and coaster wise.

As well as some other noteworthy changes to the ride’s construction. It sure was a wonderful day for Joker pics, here’s our wonderful Joker update! Continue reading “The Joker Update #7”
Six Flags Discovery Kingdom is a park ever changing this year. Even while ignoring The Joker (since we published that update yesterday), we’ve seen rides open from and close for maintenance, the construction of new restaurants, and a brand new attraction make its soft debut. With all that in mind, can we really call Discovery Kingdom less than ever changing? Continue reading “Six Flags Discovery Kingdom Update – February 6th 2016”
After the recent behind the scenes construction tour, we had to come back as soon as we could to see the progress on this world class coaster in the making. There has been much track work done since our last visit, including the completion of the world’s first step up under flip , and the pace really seems to be picking up as we inch closer to opening day.
