Not sure why the 2020 speculation thread was locked so quickly.
There are still many questions going into next season such as
the fate of Kryptonite and if other minor unannounced
improvements will be made such as restaurants , Superman trains
, etc.
2021 has to be the coaster year at this point. SFNE is due for
a new coaster but I fear it will be a copy of a single rail
coaster or compact launched coaster installed at other six flags
properties over the past few seasons. Six Flags has gotten very
vanilla when it comes to adding attractions with few custom
coasters being built and recycled names for attractions.
The park just doesn’t have a ton of space for a large lengthy
coaster and I believe Goliath will win out over Flashback and
you’ll see something moved into that space. Scrambler will be
moved, the Asian restaurant moved / demolished to fit the
coaster in the space.

What I hope:
Goliath or Flashback removed and something cool put in it's
place
New Water Ride
NO MORE SPINNING FLAT RIDES
Wishful thinking:
justice league dark ride
East Coast Racers (lol I know this would probably never come to
our small park)

SFI seems to be making moves on the cheap It's hard to believe
they would remove 2 coasters for one and extremely unlikely they
would remove a food stand and relocate a flat for one. It's more
like we would loose one attraction like Gauntlet or Goliath with
only one attraction added to that area.
New Trains for Superman would be much welcomed and If they added
a cheaper water park addition they would have something to
market during an expensive capital improvement year.

I'd be okay with new trains for superman as long as it comes
with more than just that addition, water park addition something
like mat racers can't run too much right?
Oh I didn't mean remove both, probably more likely to just
remove Flashback at this point. Gauntlet is a people eater even
though it sucks, they tend to have huge lines on busy days

The Corkscrew has long lines at Canobie on busy days doesn't
mean it's doing anything for the park.
Matt Racers are a few hundred thousand. So reasonably cheap
addition.
I'm more figuring while the trains would be great they are not
really marketable to the GP. not that I think the park taking a
year off would hurt them. If they spent that few hundred K on
other improvements that wouldn't be a bad move. Batman needs to
be repainted. the park could use more trees. Houdini needs
rehab.

I feel fairly confident that if the maintenance shed in the
North End is actually being relocated, we will get a Maxx Force
type launch coaster or an RMC raptor in that spot. SFNE is
making do with the space that they have.

We dont need more coaster until 2022/23. We need water park and
more flats and a referb of Houdini. Loving the spinning ride
theme hope we get what fiesta texas got this yr that air racer.
If any coaster leaves its gauntlet for the launch coaster there,
or flash back for a raptor. And if that happens crack axle
cannon will be re done and im sure better flats since tomahawk
will leave for sure and rocking rodeo will move also. Just want
all to be happy with what we get since other parks like la ronde
and great escape get crap every yr and thise fans are ok with
that. Or look at magic mountain nothing new 2020

You may think no coaster until 2023 but SFI knows that nothing
brings ROI like a coaster. All the new spinny rides etc are
nice and usually way more inexpensive but nothing sells tickets
and season passes like a new coaster. Think back to the
excitement at the park for WC. Now think about the hype for
Spinsanity. Not even close there and I bet the ticket sales
reflected that level of interest. I will be very surprised if
2021 is not a coaster. You can only get by with Spinsanity and
Sky Flyer for so long. Coasters are the king of selling
tickets.
As for Magic Mountain getting nothing in 2020. I am sure the
thinking there is that West Coast Racers is now their 2020 new
attraction since it is now September and it still has not
opened. Expect them to start hyping WCR as new and the reason
to buy 2020 passes pretty soon.

I know it's fun to think they will just remove and relocate a
tone fo stuff to add a big coaster but how many of you really
think that's realistic.
They got permission to relocate that maintenance building 3-4
years ago. The Yes vote don't just stay open they would have to
reply but I doubt they would have any issues getting a yes
again. But a new building could be prefabbed and run them a few
hundred K or a more traditional building and run then into the
millions. If there is a second floor it will need an elevator,
which will up the coast.
it's unlikely they would then remove a ride, relocate a ride,
etc just to put in an even bigger coaster which will just cost
more.'
Face it out last really big addition was wicked Cyclone.
everything else is under 5 Million. The addition required little
to no extra investment. This seems to be a trend company-wide.
Why would they change that?
