What if Warner Bros. Still Owned Six Flags?

[Scoobert McDoobert]

Okay, so after that big merger between Cedar Fair and Six Flags, that got me thinking; What if Warner Bros. still owned the company? This may be a stupid thought, but I think that it would be interesting, alright.
Oh, and I do believe that some coasters, such as Medusa at Great Adventure, Georgia Scorcher at Six Flags Over Georgia, Batman The Ride at Six Flags Over Texas, Raging Bull at Six Flags Great America, and maybe even Goliath at Six Flags Magic Mountain were all preplanned before Premier Parks bought the company.
Please post your ideas on this thread, and updates will come in the future.

Part 1: The Company's General Direction​

Here is the first part of how I would view the company if still owned by Warner. I believe that the company could change quite a lot of it's philosophy if it was still owned by Warner. For one, there would be more theming across the board. This is because that seemed like the general direction the company was going towards. I could also see less of a focus on coasters over time, as the coaster wars were basically over post-2005, though that doesn't mean that Warner would stop building coasters, but I will get into that much later. To simplify the general direction the company would take, I'm just going to separate this among eras just to tell you people what I mean by this.

Era 1 (1998-2007)​

• Larger focus on coasters
• IP would be in smaller doses, mostly used in small themed lands, stage shows, and various standalone attractions
• IP that would be popular to use include Looney Tunes, DC Comics, various shows made by Warner Bros. Animation (Animaniacs, Pinky and the Brain, ect.), Cartoon Network, Hanna-Barbera (surprisingly not just Scooby-Doo), Tom & Jerry, and Warner's catalogue of various movies, such as Lethal Weapon and Police Academy

Era 2 (2008-2015)​

• Medium focus on coasters
• Most major additions would be themed to some sort of IP
• By this time, most of Warner's extended catalogue would not be used, and the shows by Warner Bros. Animation hadn't even aired on tv in years; the attractions/areas themed to the other mentioned properties would be updated during this time.

Era 3 (2016-Present)​

• Minimal focus on coasters, as dark rides take center stage
• Almost, if not all additions would be based on IP
• All IP's stated in Era 2 would still be used, though Cartoon Network would be used a lot less

Alright, this post is getting long enough, but next time, I want to introduce a cancelled concept that shows an interesting direction for one park in particular if Warner still owned the company.
