I love a good coaster. I mostly stay away from theme parks, because while I love rides, I hate crowds and mindless materialism, and theme parks tend to be endless founts of both. But once in a while, my yen for thrills will win out, and I go to Disneyland or Disney's California Adventure, or Magic Mountain, or Universal-- I never thought Knott's was much good.
Space Mountain rocks, and the major coaster at California Adventure is good. But Magic Mountain rules for coasters: Tatsu, Viper, X2, Scream, Revolution, Goliath, Colossus...man, that is good stuff!
Coasters aside, I also love that Haunted Hotel ride at Disney, where you freefall for 13 stories...that is more than a little fun.
