Its nice that the "Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man" type attractions are being built elsewhere, because thats gotta be one of the neatest dark ride technologies out there.

I don't think this is the wrong forum because many people like to recreate these same parks and I think this helps those fans know what is happening with these parks.

Frankly, it looks like an average year for the theme parks. For it to be a really big year.... hmmm.... have several new major parks open, say on the size of Disneyworld or IOA.

Okay, forgot Disneyland's 50th.... that would make it a bigger year, at least.

How did you not mention anything about Disneys 50th? That will blow everyone else out of the water and I wonder if it will actually be making it a slower than normal year for all of its competition.

We're getting a new intamin rocket coaster at Liseberg here in Sweden. It's kind of small, but it has a lot of unique stuff for a rocket coaster such as a loop and a zero-g roll.

Exactly that is the biggest news out of all of them.
