I still recall the "Great American Scream Machine," which opened in 1973 as the largest roller coaster in the world at that time and of course, was the anchor attraction at Six Flags over Georgia!! The Screen Machine of 105 feet (32 m) tall and reached speeds of 57 miles per hour - it really was a scary wooden roller coaster to ride! I am not a thrill seeker and not a fan of theme parks in general, making Six Flags, for me, not really all that fun. My long time best friend is a thrill seeker, and, because she worked at an ABC affiliate in promotions in Birmingham was able to score free passes for us to go to Six Flags over Georgia several times, and we could bypass the lines! We could knock out all the fun roller coasters and other rides in no time at all! The "Riddler Mindbender" steel flying roller coaster was another roller coaster we liked to ride. Thanks Six Flags Over Georgia for providing hours of fun for so many over so many years!!!!!!

Love how for everyone except the tallest of riders (6'3"+ is my guess), your feet don't touch the floor. If you don't hang on for dear life and just let go, you float through most of the ride as you go over hill after hill after hill after hill. Truly a great ride. And because it's 4 across and I think 10 rows, it chews through the line pretty well.

Look, I ain't gonna lie, I have some issues!!!…read more FIRST, please don't be offended if I won't take a sip of your drink or eat off your plate at a yelp event. As a matter of fact, if you ask me for a sip of my drink and I let you have some... don't be surprised if I tell you to keep it. Sure, I'm gonna play it off like I was done drinking it, but the moment your saliva hits my drink, it ain't going back in my mouth! SECOND, if you have serious body odor and hug me, please don't be offended if I bust out Clorox wipes and start cleaning myself. It's not you, it's me! THIRD, if you are a restaurant employee and I see you leave a restroom without washing your hands... you might as well comp my bill and throw away my food! Or if I see you wipe several tables and seats with the same rag without rinsing it in nice soapy disinfectant-filled hot water, you can just burn my table with a flamethrower and get me a new one! LASTLY, if you run a water park that has more skin surface area than water... just plan on refunding me my admission right now! I LOVE HURRICANE HARBOR, but not on days like today when there were so many people in the water I was tempted to call infectious disease control for an emergency inspection. Seriously, you got all kinds of people walking around here that don't look like they value personal hygiene (some with open sores) and you want ME to bathe in this water and trust the chemicals are doing their job? NOT!!! Days like this I wouldn't get in the water fully clothed with a waterproof HAZMAT suit. So Six Flags, I'm gonna need you to start limiting how many people can come into this area at one time or I'm gonna be force to take another star off! That is all. SIDE NOTE - My wife doesn't appreciate my dousing her with antibacterial gel when coming out of the water with the kids and surrounding them with crime tape as the gel dries... but a man has got to do what a man has got to do! So I'mma need those capacity restrictions soon OR I need a water area built for germ-a-phobes only. I'd be happy to train your staff how to do a walking diagnosis for potential violators. I can spot nasty people a mile way! 2017/113

But these type of rides are a dying breed and they have a certain rustic charm. On a day with temps in the upper 70s it got the job done - it get me wet but not completely drenched like a river rapids ride on an October afternoon in Georgia. I could split hairs and wonder why there was no type of banjo or bluegrass music playing here cause that's what Jamboree implies to me. But then I looked it up and the definition of jamboree is "a large celebration or party, typically a lavish and boisterous one" or "a large rally of Boy Scouts or Girl Scouts". I guess it could fit the first one with a full queue of excited park goers so I guess I'll let them slide. I've been on enough rides with metaphorical names afterall. Still, I can't help but wonder if it one point this here Jamboree did play music. Aw, hell, I done introduced it enough...

ADRENALIZE Stunt…read moreschool is in session with this wild Gerstlauer custom ride! This was my first encounter riding a single car dive coaster ('Valravn' notwithstanding) and I have to give it exceedingly high marks. This does for Six Flags Over Georgia what 'X-Flight' does for my local park Six Flags Great America - a perfect fit that delivers some excellent thrills and a few very unique, intense maneuvers. Be warned that guest throughput is extremely low - single cars are sent out with a maximum of 6 riders at a time, and that's only if station crews are diligent in filling them up (which doesn't always happen). With only one tiny train on the course at a given time, lines can stretch well past the 60 minute mark. My advice is to grab a snack + drink and get settled in. The ride itself is rather short; after disengaging the vertical lift, a 95° drop is followed by a delightful dive loop, banked turn, immelman, block brake, a few short drop turns and an in-line twist taken veerrrryy slowly. But let's get back to that whole vertical chain lift bit. I've never experienced that before and the slow ascent to 95ft had my nerves of steel REALLY on edge. Even with steep lifts like those on 'Millennium Force' and 'Goliath' @ SFGAm, that's nothing compared to the terror of being leisurely dragged straight up on 'Dare Devil Dive'. Uhhhhh mah gawdddd. Even with three inversions, this ride uses only lapbars (no over-the-shoulder restraints or seatbelts) for an extra terrifying sensation. Each car has flared stadium seating, which gives riders in rows 2 and 3 a less-obstructed view, a nice touch. Eric S's Six Flags Over Georgia coaster rating : 2nd out of 9!! Verdict --- brief but badass, this is a boldly distinctive roller coaster that stands proudly towards the top of Six Flags Over Georgia's lineup of thrill machines. A ride time of 1 minute and 40 seconds is unfortunate in that you'll likely wind up spending upwards of 45 minutes waiting for this dynamic Gerstulauer custom coaster. But it's worth it. _________________________ Final thoughts : I wish there were a dive coaster nearer to Chicago, since the closest one is located inside the Mall of America way the hell up in Minneapolis. Despite a rather short ride time, this one was an absolute blast and that vertical chain lift is SO unnerving. I STRONGLY recommend spending the extra time for the front seat on this one, no matter how long the estimated wait. Ladies and gentlemen, this one's not for sissies.

And the drop is even more thrilling but the fun kinda.. ends there. It just feels like a roller coaster and some of those days, the slowly moving loop is just too much for you. Operations is also usually typically on the slower side, so longer waits. I would definitely rank this on my lower to mid tiers.

DC UNITED Another…read moreday at a Six Flags park, another Sally dark ride shooter. While I won't say that I get bored of riding these Justice League attractions, this one is no different than the ones I've ridden (and written reviews for) at Great America, St Louis, and Over Texas. Indeed, there exist *7* - that's seven - at Six Flags all over North America. I haven't yet experienced the ones in New Jersey, SoCal, or Mexico City, but I'll get to them eventually. Except for Mexico City, because kidnapping. This 'Battle for Metropolis' at Six Flags Over Georgia was new for 2017, which meant it was one of the more popular attractions at the park. Fortunately, I took advantage of the single rider line which took a 30 minute wait down to about 5 minutes. Riders are given pairs of cheap-o 3D glasses to interact with multiple movie screens during the ride. At 3 minutes and 45 seconds long, you get a decent value for the amount of time spent waiting in line. There's some mild spinning in the tracked 6-person vehicle, along with a nice erupting fire effect and a few other F/X like fog and whatnot. Same stuff I've seen in Dallas and northern Chicago, so nothing new to me. I found that my lightgun wasn't calibrated very tightly, as evidenced by my rather lousy score. Seriously, at my local area park I'm ranked in the Top 1% of all-time whereas here my (relatively abysmal) score put me in only the Top 25%. Maybe I just got screwed with a crappy blaster. Still fun, though.......and I kicked everyone else's ass in my car (though they were younger girls, so that's not a fair comparison). Ride crews were pretty friendly and timely in getting the vehicles out of the station. 'Battle for Metropolis' is great for younger kids and families; if the line doesn't stretch for more than half an hour, hop on and blast some baddies alongside Batman, Superman, and the rest of the Justice League!

If you're a fan of shooting games and thrill rides, you will love Six Flags Over Georgia's newest…read moreattraction! Having opened on May 26, 2017, this 4D attraction is similar in style to my absolute favorite theme park game/ride - Toy Story Midway Mania at Disney's Hollywood Studios at Disney World (Florida) and Disney's California Adventure. Riders work with Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, the Flash, and Green Lantern to shoot at targets throughout the ride and save the city of Metropolis from Lex Luthor, his LexBots, the Joker, and Joker's henchmen. My group of 5 got in line around 12:30 pm on a particularly busy Sunday (Father's Day), and I believe we waited about 90 minutes for our turn. However, the ride was well worth the wait - and I appreciated that part of the line that extended outside was shaded along with mist fans to keep us cool. Each car holds 6 passengers, and I think it's easier to get a higher score if you're sitting in the front row. Be sure to "shotgun" the front row of the car while you're waiting in line with the 4 or 5 others who will be riding with you! Riders receive "Night Vision Glasses" (3D glasses), and each seat has a designated color so that you can see which "EMP Wave" is coming from your blaster. To be honest, I didn't pay much attention to the actual "mission" of the attraction other than trying to shoot as many things as possible with my blaster. But the chaos from everyone in the car shooting at the same time makes it hard to see which EMP wave is yours. The special effects I did notice, such as real fire and "smoke" from fog machines, were pretty cool. Overall, "JUSTICE LEAGUE: Battle for Metropolis" gets 4 stars for being an awesome, full-sensory thrill ride. It would have been way better if each car was limited to just 2 (like Disney's Toy Story Midway Mania) or 3 riders so that each player could more easily see where his/her blaster is shooting. Nevertheless, this attraction has immediately become one of my favorites at Six Flags Over Georgia, and I highly recommend it!

Cedar Point's MaxAir might edge out SFOG's Pandemonium but it's still a 5 star slam dunk. I only gave Pandemonium one spin but would've loved to go for seconds, thirds, etc. Unfortunately, they had already closed up the queue at around 6:20pm when the park was supposed to stay open til 7pm for some colonizer holiday on a Monday in October. Boooo!!! Whatever, I rode Twisted Cyclone instead. I'm completely neutral on the steampunk theme here. The promotional sign with Pandemonium rising high above the clouds made me laugh though. Six Flags is known for fibbing about the grandiosity of their rides but the artistic license there just hit my funny bone in how it wasn't even trying to be taken literally... at least I hope not.

Because the ride is relatively new, I also see a long line (though it has fast turnover due to how many people it can fit per dispatch).

They're easily found at state and county fairs and the like, though, so if you're looking to maximize your stay at a big time amusement park, Joker here is easily skipped if there's much of a wait. (No offense, Mr. Fleck! Please don't kill me.) JCC was a walk-on early in the day during my visit to this Six Flags so I gave it a spin. It seemed like our ride op was ending our ride very early, which was peculiar to me, as there was barely anyone waiting. But then she gave us some more juice, and we got a nice long spin cycle. I'm used to this tactic on the Himalya, where the ride op makes the passengers cheer for another boost of speed, and then away we go around and around. But only silence accompanied the false stop here. Must have been one of the Joker's mind games. At any rate it was nice to get a lengthy ride here, especially as I already decided it was a one and done.

I, like many enthusiasts, consider this a sister coaster to 'Shock Wave' over at sibling park SFOT in Dallas. In fact, both rides opened within a month of each other--'Mind Bender' preceding its Texas brethren by a mere 3 weeks. Along with identical trains and similar four-tube truss track construction, the whopping G-forces are also alike (this pulls 5.4G, while 'SW' nets a gnarly 5.9G). Due to being built over a ravine, there's a considerable elevation change which adds to the ride's thrill factor. The 2nd vertical loop hovers mere inches above water; during local area flooding in September 2009, this portion of the ride was partially submerged! Trains use individual ratcheting lap bars and cars are fairly cramped. There's a brief tunnel before the final brake run and a very aesthetically-pleasing natural waterfall nearby. In 1997, this ride was repainted green to fit in with the Gotham City section of the park. The '?' is prominent on the entry signage, making 'Mind Bender' unofficially tied to the villainous Riddler. The wrapping on the train matches this scheme as well. The main reason for the unusually high G's is because the loops are more akin to a perfect circle and less like the typical teardrop shape. Whether in the front, back, or middle rows, you'll feel those G's, and baby it is WONDERFUL. A flip side to this is the delightful *negative* G's experienced in the front row at the crest of each turnaround. It twice caught me by surprise, and I ate that sh*t up. Simply marvelous. It comes as no surprise to me that both 'Mind Bender' and its fraternal twin 'Shock Wave' continue to rank highly in the worldwide poll of steel roller coasters. In fact, this particular ride was #14 in the 2010 listing, higher than both my own 'Raging Bull' AND the legendary 'Nemesis', which is rather impressive. Eric S's Six Flags Over Georgia coaster rating : 3rd out of 9! Final verdict --- this splendid "terrain" ride is truly one-of-a-kind in the world. Although it's nowhere near the fastest, tallest, longest, or has the most inversions, it began a steel thrill machine boom back in the late 1970's that still hasn't stopped to this day. For that it deserves a whole heap of praise.....and it's still a helluva fun ride, to boot! Between the brain-boggling G-forces, the unexpected pops of airtime in the front row, and the gorgeous green gully the coaster is built over, 'Mind Bender' is a fantastic attraction that you do NOT want to miss on your trip to Six Flags Over Georgia. Very highly recommended!!
