I thought Action Theater was called Action FX Theater before, but the list that KI has called it "FX Theatre" (of course, it's also called FX Action Theater and Paramount Action FX Theater on that site).

Same with me. Drop Tower is, to be honest, the worst name EVER. It's almost as bad as These United States.

FX Theatre: spongebob's picle chase

Bubba Gump Shrimp Shack: uncle zeke's shrimp market

Drop Zone: Doom Drop

Top Gun: Flight Deck is OK

Italian Job: Hollywood Chase

Face/Off: I don't understand why they couldn't keep Face/Off and not base it off the movie....

Tomb Raider: The Temple

Days of Thunder: Go Karts!!!!

Paramount Theater: Kings Theater

FX Theater: Didn't change I don't think.

Bubba Gump: Don't mind Outer Banks.

All of your guy's names aren't that good... Pole Sliders, sounds like a fancy name for a Stripper.

Top Gun: Afterburner

Italian Job: Back Stage Stunt Track

Face/Off: Invertigo

Tomb Raider: The Shaft

Days of Thunder: Action Karts?

Exactly what I was trying to point out... we all criticize CF's new names, but can't think of much better ourselves. :)

oh-wait, you were taking this seriously? i was just wise crackin.

Ahh, I could see it now.

Lady: "Do you want to go ride Son of a Gun?"

Husband: What'd ya say. Ride Son of a B****?"

or something to that affect :lol: .

Come on, someone at Paramount Parks had to know what SOB meant. Bad idea...

It was the same year that Cedar Point introduced MF. Both parks were being somewhat cute. The original logo for S.O.B. included a child's alphabet blocks with those letters showing. It was soon abandoned.

I would have liked Top Gun to have become Afterburn but as far as the other names go I don't really care.
