The missing audio in the intro is in the process of being fixed! My apologies for the inconvenience!
"C'mon, Ace! This is PG!"
I enjoyed that moment
I enjoyed it too.
The Ace & Lion collab is certainly a duo of all time
This is one of the best vlogs I’ve seen!! Great job!👍
It was great seeing your team near Battle For Metropolis. Sorry for calling out just was real surprised to see you all in person. Learned a lot about the park from you and made the experience better for my family. Keep up the good work.
Been going there since 1980, loved it so much. Miss some of the old coasters, but loving the updated from you. Thank you!
thanks for clearing up that rumor about Zumanjaro. great update as usual. Request for you--with so many improvements at the property, could you stick in a "before" and after--thinking especially about the the casa casadilla place repaint and rebrand, the superman sign, merry go round, etc.... They seem to be doing a lot of painting and refreshing things, trying to remember what they looked like before. Know you've got probably the best footage over time!!
Great vlog as always!
I’m happy that I met you guys during this visit :)
I was on Kinda Ka with Ace. Funny cuz I kept telling my kid I know him from somewhere. Lol
At 21:55, it looks like Toro barely slows down over the airtime hill.
Omg i was the guy who asked for a picture in the skull mountain line😂 glad i made it in the vlog
Amazing
Slay
Nice Colin definitely need to get the vlogs longer like this one got some reason the algorithm really likes long videos right now
Went there with my family back in mid April. I’m so glad they finally redecorated the food court section because when I was there, the signs were completely blank. I do wished they dumped the “movietown” name and changed it to Gotham city or whatever.
Another awesome video
Correct!
Thank you!
16:53 there’s a good view of some of the park’s fire and EMS apparatus in the back lot.
Very disappointed about Skull Mountain. I was really hoping they would add more props and restore the original theming. Hoping the park hears the criticisms as I 100% agree with your thoughts. It doesn’t feel like Skull Mountain anymore
They NEED to give Ka the Zamperla Treatment and add that spike. It would outdo top thrill 2 and from the looks of it so far at Cedar Point it's turning out to be a huge success plus we might get a smoother ride experience for the worlds tallest coaster. They would also take the title from CP as the worlds largest tripple launch coaster.
I have some mixed thoughts right now. I’ll start with the positives. Love the new lion statue. So much better then the temporary one. The 50 topiary’s look great. Every vlog they have been making improvements to the hero and villain food places which is nice. So you said skull mountain is like summer vibes skull mountain. I agree and I wish they went back to the way it originally was but I don’t dislike it either.
So now the negative part which is a bit lengthy:
Ride closures: I am very glad to hear that Zumanjaro is only closed for a few weeks instead of the whole season. I know it doesn’t usually get a big line but it is still one of the best rides in the park. So I don’t really agree with closing it. I’m not sure where the whole budget cuts rumor came from. Regardless there’s still too many things that are closed. Houdini isn’t opening for fright fest and I don’t see the skyway opening this year. The entirety of frontier adventures is closed, cyborg, and the Giant wheel are also closed. Yes, I know frontier adventures being closed off is for the log flume which I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt since this could have been a last minute thing like flash and there’s a lot of work to be done. And of course cyborg is closed for flash construction but there’s just too much stuff that’s closed right now.
Bad operations: When I mean bad operations I’m talking about the coasters not running at their full capacity. Usually for April things start off slow and I’ve always given them a pass. But now we are in may and there’s not much improvement on this front from what it seems. I’m not sure exactly what the holdup is but as the weather gets nicer then this will turn into a bigger problem.
I of course think it will be a great 50th but they’re off to a slow start.
The ride ops try there best give
them a break- a former ride up
JD has been on 1 train due to some block brake issue hence why it was closed the past 2 weeks with no activity. As for other rides, that’s probably a lack of maintenance workers that are able to get these trains up and going for these coasters.
Nitro has 3 trains that they can run as does JD, Toro only has 1 train stationed, no sign of the other train, Ka is on 2 trains usually, Skull is 2 trains, idk about Superman and Green lantern but since they opened them earlier than anticipated I can see that for why they’re on 1 train. Batman should be on 2 trains by now.
I do get your point though but I would honestly put it on the fact that the park opened in March. If it wasn’t ready then don’t open it.
@@zack9777 you didn’t read what I said. I wasn’t blaming them.
All fair criticisms. I think that by July 1st the park should be back to full
operations, along with all the new additions!
I was attending opening day at Cedar Point! Top Thrill 2’s line was 3+ hours long and there were several delays but they were not too long. Same with today. Coasters are not meant to operate an entire day without experiencing some interruptions.
Did you get the chance to ride it?
The new lion looks cooler than the previous one
Zumanjaro is closed for the remainder of the season
Thank you for taking those rumors and squashing them.
It’s ridiculous, seriously!
That was me that said hi on ka, I saw you guys on opening day too but didn’t have a chance to say anything
Hey just wondering from a first timer at the park does the cash app card work at the park
i saw you guys on batman, but i was too scared to approach y'all
Great adventure in my opinion has the better coaster lineup than magic mountain , magic mountains operations are awful one time I was going for a nice Saturday and then I realized everything is closed even the kids rides and this was 3:00 so I waited for an hour then scream opened and we went to it boom never mind it broke down like I just wasted 50$ on walking around the park. My point is flash is gonna add a lot to the lineup
there was music today in skull mountain!! i just want the skull back 😔 LOL
Keep watching the video, we went back later and heard the music!
@ColiwoodStudios oops i saw! lol the music is definitely odd but it is better than nothing 🤷♂️
How do guys always manage to ride a marquee attraction 13-17 times on a Saturday and fit in all the others?
Definitely like the re-theaming that's going on in MovieTown. Never made sense to me why there was a random quesadilla / Mexican food place in the middle of the Batman / DC area.
While I do like the re-theming to hero and villain; I kind of wish they were actually using DC IP / theming instead of just generic hero and villain imagery.
Perfect opportunity/location to use some more theming.
Legion of Doom bar, Gotham City grill. Arkham asylum eating area. etc. Titans Tower patio. And have a bunch of teen Titans imagery inside the eating area etc.
Also that's definitely not Superman holding a hot dog. Just a generic random hero gloved hand.
I don’t entirely disagree
will they keep the big boy lion? i hope they do, its cute. do you think theywill bring back the little soldiers andput it somehwere else
if the rides are closed to shuffle around workers, that is a budget cut.i hope to see them open back up for the summer season
Yes and No. You also got to factor in the fact that the park doesn’t even have the staffing to open all these ride yet because College finals are this month. Especially in June, that’s when you’ll see a big spike in ride operation activity
They don’t have all their normal College workers or the international workers, so it’s more lack of workers
not in the way people were saying online
@@ARMProducts1120I don't know about that. In all my years, I have never seen them have a deficit in employees. I've visited the park nearly every year since the late 90's. They typically have a ridiculously insane number of applicants - all ages and walks of life and they never had to turn off rides to usher employees around from ride to ride before.
The lion got replaced? I remember seeing it last Friday and I got a picture of it. It’s sad that it wasn’t there for a long period of time.
Yes
At about 6:05 in the video. Was that foghorn Leghorn to the right of Wiley Coyote? The camera angle and fountain made it hard to tell.
Does Foghorn Leghorn appear as a character in the parks?
And 15:12 confirms that was Foghorn Leghorn. Well, now I got a new goal to find Foghorn Leghorn on my next visits to the park
Hey i work there and from what ive heard is that maintance is over budget
Unironically, I like the tiger more than the lion and I liked the colonial statue most of all
I heard rumors there could be changes coming to Kingda Ka next year. Have you heard this? Could it be possible it gets the Top Thrill treatment? While I think it would be cool, I think it would make more sense to leave Ka as it is, since Six Flags and Ceder will be merging. Both can offer a different experience.
Not that soon
From who have you heard these rumors? 💀
Any word on Zumangaro?
There was a sign in front of Zumanjarp towards the middle of this video. What did it say?
“This ride is closed today”
Hey! I need some help from fellow amusement park enthusiasts! I live in Pennsylvania and I’m about an hour and 15 minutes away from Philly. I was maybe planning to take my dad to either Knobeles or Six Flags Great Adventure in the summer. I want people’s opinions. Which do you think is better? I’m trying to do it based on what the bigger roller coaster selection is.
I responded to this comment already on a previous video. Personally, I would go with Great Adventure.
@@ColiwoodStudios oh you did? I didn’t even see it!!
Great Adventure
@@trevorshurr7763 No worries!
We rode skull mountain on Saturday and they played club music. Not a fan of the new skull mountain. Does not sync with scary mountain theme.
Justice league needs better accuracy on the blasters
Have you heard any rumors as to them revamping ka to something similar to top thrill 2? Especially since ka is prob close to the end of its service life?
There are no plans to do that as of now.
What about skyway have seen posts on social media about them doing away with it but yet it says it’s coming in 2024 later ?
Nothing official yet
@@ColiwoodStudios ok that’s promising I would imagine with Sfga renting the crane to finish log flume it will be done after that
All directional boards pertaining to the skyway have been removed. Not likely that it opens this year
Six Flags should get rid of Justice League and the Dark Knight and bring back Batman and Robin the Chiller with LSM technology
Flash pays pretty good homage to Chiller without removing any attractions, which I see as a win-win!
@@ColiwoodStudios no you never rode the chiller you wouldn’t understand that was the best ride in the park and they can bring it back with reliable LSM’s you even said Justice League is very glitchy now I’d rather see a The Chiller back as a dueling shuttle coaster in that area now that would pay homage to the Chiller just like the way they brought back dream street
If you’re willing to donate the money to do all that I’m sure the park will consider it! Otherwise I can’t see that happening.
@@ZMSaypol i absolutely will :) Justice League, Dark Knight, and Green Lantern are all outdated and need to go ✌️
I watched the whole video but I seemed to have missed the major changes.
What's your all time high score on justice league? Mine's around 440k
If I remember correctly, 454k last year, though I do remember getting 480k as well last year, I just can’t find the photo of it
They removed the sign and it’s boarded. They straight up lied to you lmao. No way you actually believe that right?
Right..why remove the zumanjaro sign if it's reopening in 3 weeks...there was nothing wrong with that sign. Tango and jolly Rogers signs are still up though .
Your editing is so ✨crispy✨
better be reopened by june 1st budget cuts my ass this park is a mess
Any bees? Always seems like there are bees on nitro
Didn’t see any!
Yesterday was my birthday, but I didn’t went to Six Flags. It’s OK at least I had a good birthday.
Happy belated birthday!
@@ColiwoodStudios thanks I like your content by the way
If there is a certain way to ride a ride to make it good..........that ride should not exist...........
Respect your opinion though. 👍
Fair enough
