  • In this video, I talk about Six Flags Great Adventure's standup roller coaster, Green Lantern! This is a ride I personally enjoy, that has a horrible reputation at the park. I'm here to explain why it's actually a great ride, and is over-hated!

    I apologize for the “popping” that can be heard in parts of the video. Still trying to figure out why this is happening, and will hopefully have it fixed by the next video!

    This was the most painful ride i’ve ever been on. Both of my calves cramped up on the first loop and every loop after they hurt worse. I couldn’t walk after.

    I got on this ride after a few year hiatus due to living in the Midwest. I have a membership so now I got frequently. I remember how painful it was the first time. I visited in August of 2022, and me and my wife got on it. I thought to myself, I’m going to regret this but wth. It starts off decent enough, but it’s not until the ride is half way done where the head-banging starts and then it’s like, a ride of agony. I had on sunglasses and well, it didn’t feel good. At the end, I felt in my legs, crotch, and had a headache afterward. In my opinion, this ride is not gonna last much longer.

    In the front two rows as well as the back row,the train doesnt crimp and bend as much,therefore making it easier on the legs and crotch. I too found an appreciation for this ride. Thanks for the love, great review ✊🏽

    This coaster has a really good layout, I just don’t like the stand up factor. You can feel the forces, just not always in the best way. Also, I think it’s pretty smooth as well

  • @baconchris
    @baconchris 2 года назад +3

    Most people did not like it because some people it’s based off of the Green Lantern movie from 2011 and a stand up coaster. I really like it because it has more inversions than other stand up coasters. The movie was good in my opinion.

  • @ethankonicek3903
    @ethankonicek3903 3 года назад +8

    The Layout is great for green lantern, if they made it a floorless, it could be better than bizzaro and would help decrease on the crowds at superman

      Very true!

    • @its_me_clyr
      @its_me_clyr 3 года назад +1

      But bizzaro is already a floorless. So converting it to a floorless is pointless

    • @ColiwoodStudios
      @ColiwoodStudios  3 года назад +1

      Yes, but he’s saying that if they were both floorless hypothetically speaking, Green Lantern may be better

    • @matthewmiller7207
      @matthewmiller7207 3 года назад

      I don't think so. Bizarro already has a better layout to begin with. Plus it likely wouldn't be as smooth as Bizarro, due to it being relocated once.

    Is it just me or is this ride like hella fun. Nothing beats driving into the parking lot and seeing this coaster run. The turn around into the drop is great and the drop is also good plus the ejector on the midcourse is great.

    • @ColiwoodStudios

      Typically, the mid-course brake run does not slow the train down on Green Lantern

    Great video, only issue i ever had was head banging but usually 1st and 2nd row is minimal. Last row usually always head bangs for me. And with riddler revenge, rode it once in 2016 last row and i could not believe has smooth it is, my guess is the consistent climate doesn’t warp the track like the climate from Kentucky and New Jersey does to green lantern. I’d rather people hate this ride shorter line when i want to ride

    Honestly it would be a great ride if you could sit down. The standing feature is too painful for me to enjoy it

    • @ColiwoodStudios

  • @VinceHere98
    @VinceHere98 2 года назад +1

    I kinda agree with you, although I don’t think Great Adventure really needed a relocated Stand-up coaster. Don’t get me wrong, I think Green Lantern is a decent ride, but IMO they should move it to a Six Flags park that either has little-to-no B&M’s, like Darien Lake or St. Louis, maybe even Mexico, and have the stand-up trains replaced with floorless ones.
    As for what should replace Green Lantern, it should definitely be a B&M Wing coaster. I feel like a wing could’ve been a replacement for the now defunct Great American Scream Machine instead of a Stand-up.
    Again, I find Green Lantern to be a decent Stand-up, but I also feel as though it desperately needs to be turned into a floorless, and since Great Adventure already has Medusa, relocation to another park will make converting Green Lantern a possibility.

  • @Cat3465

    This stand-up is overhated despite that there are others like Riddler's Revenge and Georgia Schorcher that get more positive feedback that this one.

    I rode green lantern for the first time and people are overreacting it didn’t hurt my legs and my head does bang but it’s not bad for me I personally love the coaster but it’s probably only going to stay there another 5 to 10 years because not a lot of people like and ride this coaster I went on it holiday in the park there wasn’t even a line this coaster had hype only for a year or 2 after it opened now it’s a shadow of what was before green lantern

    I always thought it was a fun ride, although I've only been on it once. I think this will be the next coaster to get removed out of the major ones.

  • @PriincexKween

    Went on this a few days ago. I stood in line for 45 mins (the longest line in the park that day) and thought the concept of the “stand up coaster” was cool and gave it a shot. And boy was I wrong!! This is by far the worst roller coaster in the park. This banged my head so bad and every time we hit the loop my legs felt like they were about to break! 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 it would def be better if it was a sit down type coaster. I will not ride again.

    • @ColiwoodStudios
      @ColiwoodStudios  3 года назад

      I agree it’d definitely be better with sit down trains, I’ve just been lucky enough to get some great rides on it!

  • @KuyBurgOfficial
    @KuyBurgOfficial 3 года назад +1

    They removed a coaster that caused headaches for a coaster that causes headaches and bruises on testicles. I really hope the news trains patented by B&M go to Green Lantern because the whole concept needs to be redone. Iron Wolf when it was at Six Flags Great America was painless, and so was Riddlers Revenge.
