Six Flags is NOT a theme park.

If people consider the Value Resorts or stuff like Jolly Holiday Bakery to be "theming" then Six Flags runs theme parks.

You're right though, Figment doesn't speak to the modern generation...

Only time will really tell the tale.

And sadly locked two in position...

I understand the sentiment but what it shows is that they probably could have build the ride at half the size. In hindsight, they could have built Mission: SPACE with two less centrifuges and built another screen for Soarin'

If they're right... good for them getting the scoop, but it seems like there is some extrapolation of info that's out there and overstating what is believed (3 Avatar rides, large budget for Star Wars).
