How pissed are you that Wonderland changed the names to 5 rides?
Paramount sold Wonderland to Cedar Fair 2 years ago. Looks like Cedar Fair is hell bent on not giving Paramount free advertising, lol.
Italian Job: Stunt Track ---> Back Lot Stunt Coaster
Top Gun ---> Flight Deck
Cliffhanger --->Riptide
Tomb Raider ---> Time Warp
Drop Zone ---> Drop Tower
Action F/X Theatre ---> Action Theatre
who cares??
(I haven't been since I was 14 anyhow)

I heard someone refer to Top Gun as "Flight Deck, formerly Top Gun" and I didnt get it... Now I do.
I think its kind of sad, but really wont affect the park in any way.
Long Live Top Gun
And Time Warp... what a stupid name

I'm sure that it's also due to copyright and trademark laws preventing non-Paramount affiliated parks from retaining the right to use the names on their rides.
tho on the flipside, props to CedarFair for actually building a new roller coaster (Behemoth) for this season. Paramount did jack in the what 10 plus years since Top Gun was built like back in 1994.

They built the Tomb Raider ride a little while ago, but it sucks.

yah anything under 100 ft drop definitely does not count as a roller coaster
