  • @DaanBruins

    There are probably even way more coasters named 'roller coaster' out there if you into account the coasters that are just named 'roller coaster' but in a different language. Like as a Dutch person, there are multiple coasters named 'Achtbaan' (the Dutch world for roller coasters) in our country. Same goes for Germany (Achterbahn in German) and also montana rusa in a lot of latin languages, I'm guessing that's the same for many and I mean MANY other languages and coasters around the world.

    Brands tend to have brand names. I don’t think Batman’s and Superman’s are over used. If there were 10 Disney Magic Kingdom parks, there would be 10 Big Thunder Mountains and 10 Space Mountains. There are allot of Batman’s and Superman’s because there are allot of Six Flags parks.
