another of those "top coasters" lists....

[caffeine_demon]

The TPR board recently linked to a website featuring the "50 best roller coasters"

http://www.complex.com/rides/2011/06/th ... r-coasters

It has a few bizarre choices..

NO Nemesis :x (They obviously know of England - they have mumbo jumbo in there!!)
goudurix at 49!
T espress and balder below "the rattler" and "mean streak"

Also - T express is at 29, and one of the 3 pics is of fireball!
Bizarro at SFNE is at 12 - and there are 3 pictures, all of different coasters (I think the 3rd one may be right)
Nitro at 13 is listed at six flags great america, rather than great adventure

and I love the description on wicked twister:
"This is one of those suspended coasters, where you're dangling from the track instead of having the security of gravity."

They've literally gone "tallest and fastest and longest and biggest = best".

Worst list ever.

 

[Ethan]

And this is why CF is the best.

 

[Youngster Joey]

Boulder Dash at 44......

This discredits the list right there.

 

[kimahri]

No Saw? They have pretty much every other Eurofighter on there.

Is it odd that I had Comic Book Guys voice saying that in my head? :lol:

Im kinda scared to read this list now based off of the posts ...

What are you guys even talking about? This is better then Mitch Hawker.

 

[rollermonkey]

Do we look at these lists for any reason other than too be offended?

 

[Darren B]

But the list is scientifically proven....

Lol, Coaster Thrill Ride at my local Puyallup Fair is on there. I bet none of you have even heard of it before

And Mamba at #16? That's a random pick. Also think it's funny Superman and ToTII made their top 10

I also like how a bunch of their pictures are either NoLimits or CGI models from park advertisements.

It has some really strange coasters on there. Some of the wooden ones don't seem to be that good and TTD and Kingda ka dont't deserve to be in the top 10.

 

[reddude333]

^TTD does :-D

Hey! Somebody has to think of the children!

 

[Nemesis Inferno]

Wow that list is a bit burdenous isn't it?

Colossus AND Mean Streak? Excuse me while I shoot the idiots who made this list based of the records page on RCDB...


Although I do agree with Snoo, it's better than Mitch Hawker

 

[Jer]

Hydra...36
Hydra is on the list, suddenly I lost all interest.

Seriously, did they pull names out of a hat to pick this list?

 

[Colossus]

That`s awful.

Biggest pet peeves of this list:
-He included almost all of the Eurofighters, except the good ones
-The photo of Bizarro at Six Flags New England is of Medusa at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom
-Titan is four spots above Goliath, even though their both almost the exact same ride
-The top 10 is almost entirely made up of record breaking coasters, (even the GTA's aren't this corrupt,) and the ones that aren't are WAY out of place.
-And as said in the comments of the article, they completely skipped Busch Gardens Tampa!

The sad part is, that this is true. :lol:

 

[Venom2053]

^Yea you think they would have included Montu or Kumba if Eurofighters are making the list

 

[IntaminToWin]

This list is ridiculously bad. How is Takabisha not on there?
I also didn't spot Volcano, and I don't think I'm alone in thinking Bizarro (SFNE) or Millennium Force should get top spot.
