1. I propose as a general rule...
If your theme park's lake starts to look like the Tsunami aftermath, it's time to close up shop.

3. The Flying House and "Mr. Gun" LOL
All the great themes have been used up and turned into theme parks.

- Christian Slater's character in "Pump Up the Volume" (1990).

Looks like they really did run out of great themes.

How much was admission?

4. Woah, that's worst than Keansburg! I'm truly amazed.
Keansburg is where kids go to die in NJ...well, where parents take their kids when they want to kill them discreetly. I'm a trooper. I survived many summers risking death on that boardwalk.

5. Sad. Depressing.

Empty theme parks are melancholy, anyway. This is just ... :cry:

8. The wide angle lens adds to the experience.
I wonder how many employees the park has. Does the guy who takes your ticket follow you around to start up the rides? (Assuming you are brave enough to actually go on the rides...)

9. That "Flying House" one is enough to give nightmares.
Just by how it looks.

10. It looks more like a "bemusement park"
It's not an attraction. It's a repellent.
