Favorite Premier Rides coaster

[ECG]

Simple one. What's your favorite Premier Rides coaster? Please select from the list above & list a top five in your reply.
I've condensed the Mummy & Back Lot Stunt coasters as one so the we can have a bit of variety to this poll. I've done the same with Poltergeist/Joker's Jinx, as well as the Flight of Fear & Mr. Freeze coasters.
If you only prefer one of the like named coasters over the others, feel free to list that specific one in your top five (like I did with Mummy & Poltergeist).

Here's my top five:
1. Revenge of the Mummy - Universal Studios Florida
2. Mr. Freeze - SFSL/SFOT
3. Sky Rocket - Kennywood
4. Poltergeist - Six Flags Fiesta Texas
5. Flight of Fear - Kings Dominion/Kings Island

I haven't ridden Yamaha Racing Coaster or Vonkaputous & could imagine Racing Coaster making my top five if I ever get the chance to give it a go, but I don't think the water coaster would make my list.
Then there's Superman Ultimate Flight at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom & the unnamed coaster at Great Mall of China that are still under construction & could creep up in there as well.

Re: Favotire Primier Rides coaster

I have to vote for the back lot stunt coaster (Wonderland version) as right now it's the only coaster I've ridden on the list. That being said i'm going to Kings Dominion and Kennywood this summer so we'll see how it changes after I ride flight of fear and skyrocket

Re: Favorite Primier Rides coaster

Out of your list I've ridden;

Back Lot Stunt Coaster - couple of them ; not great, filler ride at best.
Robin (no Batman!) - was interesting, bit painful, shame its gone though
Joker's Jinx/Poltergeist/Flight of Fear - aren't these all the same? I like these though, very disorientating
Mr. Freeze - My fav. Loved the spike straight up into the night sky over texas
Powder Keg - isn't that really an S&S ride, Premier was the failed Buzzsaw bit?
Revenge of the Mummy - good for sure, but overrated IMHO
Runaway Mountain - didn't even strike me as this was a Premier.
Speed: The Ride - best coaster in Vegas, shame about that one too.

So for 5;

1 Freeze
2 FoF (etc)
3 Mummy
4 Speed
5 Robin

(I'm not counting Powder Keg then ;-) )

Re: Favorite Primier Rides coaster

^Thanks for the heads up on the typo & you are absolutely correct about Powder Keg, so I removed it from the list.
To me there's a big difference between Joker's Jinx/Poltergeist & the Flight of Fear coasters. Not only are the Flight of Fear coasters indoor, but they have that MCBR that brings the coaster to a halt during the ride that almost kills it (IMO). That's why I didn't group all of the "spaghetti bowl" coasters together.

 

[ECG]

Yes, that's what I get for copy & pasting a typo.
David already pointed it out, I just hadn't made the correction yet. :wink:

I believe I posted this on youTube about 20 minutes before it was posted on here and EastCoasterGeneral responded to me can't you vouch 4 me ECG?

 

[caffeine_demon]

only been on ROTM... (which is awesome)

 

[Gazza]

RoTM - FL Version
RoTM - SG Version
RoTM - CA Version
Mr Freeze - SFOT
Runaway Mountain

They're all pretty solid overall surprisingly, had no real issues with any. I'm sort of wondering whether to switch RoTM - CA version with Mr Freeze. Am a sucker for theming normally, but Mr Freeze did pack a nice little punch.

I really enjoyed Flight of Fear actually. It wasn't a great ride, but it was good fun. Certainly better than the majority of dark coasters I've been on... Actually, it was probably my favourite dark coaster.

BLSC was more an interactive experience than a coaster. The coaster part was poor, but sadly, the experience wasn't great either. It all just fell short really which was a shame because there was some decent potential there.

I remember them being built and thinking at the time they'd missed out on a lot of tricks (which Disney would have nailed). Things like the helix being plain coaster track. If they'd had a modelled road or something to immerse you, it would have helped a lot. It was kind of like a Studio Tram Tours only trying to be exciting and failing to fully put you in the place it wanted. Wasted opportunity sadly.

I've done:

Back Lot Stunt Coaster, Canada's Wonderland
Back Lot Stunt Coaster, Kings Dominion
Flight of Fear, Kings Dominion
Joker's Jinx, Six Flags America
Speed - The Ride, Nascar Cafe
Revenge of the Mummy, Universal Studios Florida
Revenge of the Mummy, Universal Studios Hollywood
Revenge of the Mummy, Universal Studios Singapore
Vonkaputous, Linnanmaki

I've just realised how fab Premier actually are. Sure, none of their creds are mindblowing (the mummies don't count because it's not the actual coaster that makes the ride amazing), but they're all a lot of fun. Vonkaputous <3.

The only disgusting one on my list is Speed in Vegas, bleugh.

I really want to do a Mr. Freeze too <////3.

Mr. Freeze is the best one, I could ride that loads and not get bored of it. I don't know why, because it's not exceptional or anything, but it's always a good time.

Second would be any of the two or three Flight of Fear rides I have been on. Disorienting for sure .

Speed would be third, because it was good, albeit really short.

Then the Backlots, which are underrated and fun.

Pretty sure that's all I've been on. I missed Batman and Robin by like, a month when I went to Great Adventure but I'm not too upset by it.

 

[A101]

Revenge of the Mummy is a great attraction, but if I was voting just based on the actual roller coaster, my choice would have been different.

 

[Gavin]

Like others, I've been surprised at how "solid" Premier actually are. The coasters they've built so far, while not great in number, are really decent rides.

Of the ones I've ridden:

1. Mr. Freeze - really, really liked this coaster
2. Flight of Fear (x2) - really fun, solid rides
3. Sky Rocket - Vastly overrated, but a "good" coaster
4. Back Lot (x3) - I secretly kind of like these
5. Vonkaputous - It's crap really, but strangely fun and quirky

 

[Nic]

I've only done Speed out of all of those, but I really enjoyed it.

 

[Venom2053]

I've only ridden the Back Lot Stunt and the ROTM in Orlando, hope to get Batman and Robin done this summer. I'd put ROTM in front of the Back Lots.

 

[Youngster Joey]

^Aren't Batman and Robin no longer at Six Flags Great Adventure?

 

[Venom2053]

^Aren't Batman and Robin no longer at Six Flags Great Adventure?

Yes, you are correct my mistake. Guess I won't be riding it :lol:

 

[Josh73]

I loved the Revenge of the Mummy, really fun, fast paced, etc.

Backlots are just real fun, not scary, but they still deserve a mention.
