Love theme parks (100+), roller coasters (635+), haunts, horror, unique SoCal events/places/eats, and occasional culture. Mostly LA, but also travels. 🏳️‍🌈🎢💀

Mostly USH, SFMM, KBF, and (not as much) Disney. No media affiliation, just passionate about things
If anyone needs a Scooby Doo shirt for Universal Fan Fest, Things From Another World at Citywalk has you covered

If you get a chance, even though it’s coming to Disney+ on Jan 22, I would recommend seeing it on a big screen if possible!
Just saw Disneyland Handcrafted. Really enjoyed it! I’d estimate about 90% of the footage is new to me, and it’s cool to see it on the big screen in color. Amazing they went from dirt to Disney in 10 months.

Playing in Burbank AMC this holiday weekend only!

I feel like there are parallels between Disney forcing the original vision of DCA only to retool it later and admit it was a bad idea, and what’s now happening with Galaxy’s Edge ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Paramount’s Great America brochure from 1997, highlighting Drop Zone and a Special Effects IMAX show

My husband got me a great DVD of vintage Workplace Safety videos... while this is not one of them, this 9 min short film from Germany will definitely give you the same vibes.

Funny and gory (in a silly, dark comedy way), so probably NSFW, but pretty hilarious

Spoke with a kind employee who was also a scareactor at Fright Fest. They claimed that both Willoughby’s AND Conjuring will NOT be returning. They heard some Conjuring props have already been sold off, and we may get two new mazes. No idea what they will be. We’ll see!

Some new merch. Really like that it’s the ACTUAL Six Flags Magic Mountain rides pictured, and not generic coaster/ride skyline.

The icons on the wait times board have been missing for at least a week or two, if not more

Overheard at Six Flags Magic Mountain Batman ride, said by kids discussing the merits of different rows on the ride:

“In the front, it’s windy. In the back, you have to deal with farts.” 🤣🤣🤣

With Six Flags Magic Mountain now open until 10pm on all Saturdays, we thought we’d stop by!

First off, they are definitely installing chargers in their parking lot

Was checking the Six Flags Magic Mountain calendar and noticed it'll be open until 9pm every Friday from now until May 1, and until 10pm every single Saturday through at least June!

Can't remember when they've been open that late in the off season

Really liking this new merch for The Birds at Universal Studios Hollywood! Great to see the classics still honored

Universal Studios Hollywood now has Happy Gilmore mech for those who care

The Wicked photo op near the park entrance is down, but reveals this nice window display

Lights are on at the Fast & Furious sign, as well as two “streetlights” on either side

Construction at the Universal Studios Hollywood park entrance boundary, parallel to the old Saddle Ranch site (does anyone even remember that restaurant anymore?). Park exit goes behind it

Pics of a quiet ship as we prepared to disembark

Final thoughts on our first cruise: we overall enjoyed it! Customer service was exceptional. We also usually keep to ourselves, but ended up having many interactions with other guests, which was a pleasant surprise!

Sailing back into LA this morning!

Saw Sonic Odyssey, and while both shows are good, IMO, this is the superior one! Very cool music effects, singers, and excellent dancers. (Final pic is from online because I forgot to snap a pic during the show)

At Night, the North Star observation pod swings over the edge of the ship, giving some great views of it as you dangle over the ocean!

I remember all these! I still miss the koi pond, paddle boats, and the underwater arcade
You know back in the day if your magic key was blocked, you can have a full day of fun at the hotel. Look at all those “Attractions”
January 7, 2026 at 2:24 PM
We were literally just wondering with some friends of ours if there was any update on this!

Evening pics of the ship, including a view of the North Star over the edge of the boat, as seen from the lower decks
