To clarify - The theming decision can be independent of coaster attributes: ‘immortality’ will be no more obtained at 315’ than 180’ (indigestion, another story).

That is true. What I meant was that if there was anything deliberate about the decision of the codename it was for the purpose of throwing people off and building hype. There is nothing to show that it was a deliberate decision and not simply the next name down the list of potential codenames.

I am eager to see how the ‘Garden of the Gods’ will be themed/rendered, and if the location will lend itself to pedestrian access. I’m speculating the garden comes toward the end of the ride.

Garden of the Gods
The Garden of the Gods, is a circular chamber located within the Palace of the Fates in God of War II. It contains six golden statues of various gods along the right edge of the room. The statues in question are of Ares, Zeus, Athena, Poseidon, Helios, and Hades (in that order, from left to...

There's no guarantee that it will be rendered.
It will be the area surrounding the main forward-back-forward launch (I've guessed), complete with on-ride photo for achieving "immortality" (guessing, again).
If not... It should be!

Man, you guys are gonna be disappointed when there is literally no theming at all.
Also going to be really disappointed when there's no on ride photo. I don't think the coaster track area will be themed but I think there will be some light theming in the queue house and in the area outside the coaster. It might not be very much theming but I think there will be at least a little bit

Some ACErs pointed out the letters on the flags of Apollo's entrance and were curious whether they meant something or not.

I must have 'implored Minerva, the goddess of wisdom & war... to guide me' on this one.

The flags they’re showing in the video clips likely a design element, though those could hang from a walkway light post.
MMXX is going to be a very nice add to the park. My only disappointment is the single-point of access from Fiesta - a topic that has been discussed. I really would have liked the ‘L’ intersection at the foot of the Germany/ Italy bridge turned into a ‘T’ intersection, with a walkway up to the MMXX station.
@JohnD The topography at the point you're discussing has a very steep drop off, edging close to the protected waters of the "Rhine". Even so, it would be a long walk with no exposure to $$ making venues along the way...

I'm totally 100% lost on this post.
Agree on costs, but there’s no shortage of construction methods to achieve, e.g. cantilever or under-tresses for a portion of walkway. For visitors who are optimizing their time, these short-cuts make a big difference.
