    Universal IoA | Jurassic World VelociCoaster | Intamin Blitz | 2021

    If it’s an Intamin then maybe a family invert similar to Dragekonen? Maybe we see Pteranodon Flyers on the way out as well?

    Major Expansion Announced for Tokyo DisneySea

    The Peter Pan ride may be using the same system as Shanghai Pirates, so that seems like the most exciting addition.

    Busch Gardens Tampa | Tigris | Premier SkyRocket II

    Galaxy's Edge is scheduled to open in Late Fall of 2019, which if I had to guess is around the time Episode IX is released. So even with BGT being more of a regional park, the only real competition they'll face is the Potter Coaster (and possibly a Jurassic Park attraction). Mickey and Minnie's...

    Busch Gardens Tampa | Tigris | Premier SkyRocket II

    That’s the point though. They’re not Disney or Universal. Seaworld as a company has gradually been transforming into a regional company a la Cedar Fair and Six Flags. If that’s how they’ve been able to turn attendance around at their parks, more power to them. Not every park in Central Florida...

    Nagashima Spa Land | Hakugei | RMC I-Box Conversion of White Cyclone

    This is probably the best prediction I've seen so far. Very Steel Vengeance-esque:

    Toverland | Fenix | B&M Wing Coaster

    Porgs are at least pleasing to look at. I don’t understand why people find the Ewoks so adorable, they look like crack-addicted Fozzie Bears.

    IOA | Hagrid's Motorbike Adventure | Intamin LSM Launch (Dragon Challenge replacement)

    Someone made a prediction layout in Planet Coaster:

    IOA | Hagrid's Motorbike Adventure | Intamin LSM Launch (Dragon Challenge replacement)

    Off the top of my head, the coaster with the most launches that’s not an Impulse or Skyrocket II is Cheetah Hunt with a total of 3. [EDIT] Mummy at the other Orlando park also has three launches according to RCDB.

    IOA | Hagrid's Motorbike Adventure | Intamin LSM Launch (Dragon Challenge replacement)

    The uploader, Alicia Stella, is a fairly reliable source when it comes to the Universal parks. Even if the scenes are not 100% accurate, the general sequence of the ride is probably what we can expect.

    Liseberg | Valkyria | B&M Dive Coaster

    Getting back to the testing conversation, Fury 325 tested for about three weeks before media day (though the coaster was completed at the end of January). Like others have stated, it probably varies from country to country, but I don’t see why Valkyria wouldn’t be able to open by early to mid July.

    Carowinds | Copperhead Strike | Mack Dual Launch

    Just my opinion but I doubt this will top Fury or Afterburn at the park for me. Intimidator, yes, but the other two big B&M’s are among my favorite coasters (though admittedly I’m not that well traveled).

    IP-themed rides that you'd like to see happen

    Something based off the Laika films. They’ve got an amazing library with Coraline, Paranorman, and Kubo and the Two Strings, but the films just aren’t commercially viable enough to warrant building an entire land or even a ride for them.

    Carowinds | Copperhead Strike | Mack Dual Launch

    It doesn't appear that the radius on either inversion would be wide enough to support a non-inverting loop.

    Carowinds | Copperhead Strike | Mack Dual Launch

    NewFor2019 on Youtube made a really nice layout in No Limits:

    Carowinds | Copperhead Strike | Mack Dual Launch

    This was filed by Cedar Fair almost three weeks ago. Given the abundance of snakes of this species in the Carolinas, this could likely be the new name of the coaster.
