2020 Speculation

I figured I might as well contribute by adding a thread for 2020! I know the 2019 announcement just happened, but it's never to early to start discussing what we think would be a good fit!

I’m thinking an S&S launch would fit very well too. They could market it as the tallest and fastest launch coaster in NE. It seems like a clone of the one Great America is getting would fit very nicely where Goliath and Flashback are now, but I wouldn’t mind something more custom.

If it’s not a coaster, it seems like an Endeavour replacing Kryptonite would be a pretty safe bet.

DC would be an amazing place with an Endeavour, new Superman trains, and Battle For Metropolis. I hope they can at least get one of those soon.

I think since the park has pretty much filled Gotham city, we will be seeing the transformation of DC superhero adventures to Metropolis. Hopefully this will include an Endeavour, a new coaster, and a few more flats. On the map below, I highlighted the sections that I believe are possibly going to be developed for 2020.

Stickying this...

Normally the instant 2 year of topic gets closed. boy how things change.

I'd much prefer something like a launch coaster replace either Catwomans Whip or Flashback/Goliath rather than GCG. Although GCG doesn't really fit the idea of converting the area to Metropolis, I feel a non compact launch coaster would just be a waste of space for that huge pad... I'd much prefer to see a Raptor in that location.

Another pipe dream of mine is to see Kidzopolis converted to the DC superheroes theme like at SFOG and now SFM. They could move Catwoman up there and even theme some rides to Teen Titans... that way that whole section could be tied together to the entire DC theme.

I see a raptor going in that area where gcg is. I see endeavor going where kk is and i see 1-2 more flatts in that area but these rides i see in a new 5 yr plan. I agree gothems almost full. There is toom for one more flatt there. Now north end theres alot they can do and add. Take cac for instance. You can put a launch in the area of flashback to Goliath. Move balloon race next to biliz river. Scrabler can move to near houdini. Or in freed up land from both goliath and flash back. The building next to tomahawk knocked down start path to connect top of cac to rest of that area and use it to put anothe flatt there. Some say this park is land locked its not just need to work around some things to make stuff work with the woods area and town

I could see new trains on Superman since 2020 will be it’s 20th anniversary.

I don't think a kidzopolis re-theme is that much of a pipe dream. would be cheap and easily marketed. relocating catwoman maybe.

We have to wonder whether SFI is happy with those. they added one and didn't buy one for 2019 They have jumped on all the concepts they really liked and milked them for all they are worth. look at the Giant Discovery and the Free Fly. So the raptor might be extinct for SFI.

I think they didn’t go with RMC this year simply because they’re spending a ton of money at SFMM and SFGram. I believe we’ll be seeing a new Raptor or 2 in the chain for 2020.

2020 is the park’s 150th anniversary if I’m not mistaken, so I really hope we can get something bigger like Maxx Force (though hopefully with a better name) or a Raptor/TRex. I would love to see it in DC Adventures or up near CAC in the flashback area.

I would love a launch coaster! It’s really the only thing I feel missing in the current lineup !

I feel GCG could be moved to say Great Escape!

It would be nice to get new trains for Superman, but aren’t the current trains newer from Bizarro? Or were they partially part old trains? I don’t remember .

I can see a raptor replacing gcg. a launch coaster in cac. with possible endever replacing kk. But i do see 2 of these being reality for 2020
