    my friend gave it an absolutely glowing review, so there's that. Said it's one of the best movies he's seen in a long time. He's a typical mcu fan who also really enjoyed the first spiderverse, so I'm pretty stoked to go see it myself

    Good old local wooden coaster that's simply called the Coaster.

    Nothing special but lots of fun memories. It's just a few simple quick drops and turns. The best part, though, was that it had a 1950's view of personal safety i.e. there was a lap bar and that was it. It wasn't even all that tight and it depended on the rider to not be stupid and grab the bar if they were in danger.

    If you wanted to be stupid though... man, I legit nearly flew out (knees were going past the lap bar) before I grabbed on to it again. Hilarious fun that would absolutely not fly today.

    They may have upgraded the restraints, I haven't ridden it in 10 years...
