will Chang get a new name? Ideas...
« on: July 21, 2010, 02:02:12 PM »
How about renaming it Scream Machine 2? It's lame and uncreative, but it's a more marketable name than "Chang" and it'll still give the same headaches. So why not?

Of course they can be even less creative and call it "Green Lantern" since the movie will be out next June.

(I realize we may end up not getting Chang, but the new ride will still need a name)

If they care one bit about keeping the boardwalk theme in that area, then they shouldn't name it after a movie.

They haven't cared about keeping the theme in that section since Superman came in.

It all went downhill after that.

I can actually bank on an abbreviated name like STC1 or something.

I think a name like Nor'Easter or Storm Surge (someone else proposed Storm Surge) along with a storm theme would be really cool for the ride. I think Green Lantern would be cool too, as long as the coaster had a storyline like The Incredible Hulk.

I wouldn't get my hopes up on that one.  Rather than pay for a theme, I look for current management to expect to be paid for using a theme.  Perhaps the Miracle Whipped Mile or something similarly commercial...

I see them using a name they already own and have materials ready for. Like Goliath, Viper, etc.

I'd really be shocked if they licensed anything like the Green Lantern.
