Perhaps Jamestown Landing returns to it's home

This is my favorite idea. Old Virginia could use another flat (especially if/when the upcharge rides are demoed). Good nostalgia play too which is always a win.

At any other park it would be a bit of a throwaway flat, but at KD, given the history and theme, it would be a little more than that.
 
I might’ve mentioned this before, but I’d love for KD to get SFA’s teacups. I think it’s unlikely that the ride survives, but teacups rides are a classic family ride and they always seem to be a draw. It’s a perfect thematic fit for CAG and there are plenty of spaces it could go — and CAG desperately needs the kinetic energy of another family ride.

They could demolish the games booth in front of Drop Tower and put the teacups there, giving the ride sort of its own mini plaza:

Or they could put it in the back corner of CAG by the arcade and the Racer exit. If they demolished the existing awning of the arcade, which currently covers nothing but a ton of redundant claw machines, the arcade building could actually provide a cool backdrop for the ride:

I’d rather see Delirium get replaced with the discovery from SFA. As for the NebulaZ, if they want to do the least thematic work to it, send it to SFNE for their new steamtown area with quantum accelerator.
The SFA discovery was Fun for me and gave nice floater. Delirium is short (in height and length, and the seating arrangement is awkward af

While I agree that the Teacups coming to the park is a much needed addition, there are plenty of spaces (even within Candy Apple Grove) where they would not need to demolish architecture that is original to the park (something they definitely should not be doing). KD Teacups.jpg

I personally would love to see Jamestown landings return to KD as a sorta belated 50th addition. Also would love to see the Rodeo which is still in storage at SFA relocated and saved. Teacups are not a bad idea but something different then what BGW has would be a welcome thing. Also at least 2 SF parks had a Frisbee ride in recent addition serveys I would think odds are goid one of them gets Harley Quinn.
 
2. Backlot being removed. When I rode it this year, the initial launch was weaker, and the only functional effect was the soundtrack at the "helicopter" pause. No flashing lights or siren sounds with the police cars, no animation on the helicopter, no fire effects....nothing. Just put it out of its misery.
Slightly off topic but I did see the fire working this previous Sunday evening.

Fair points. I wanted to leave the Skyflyer plot and the space to the right of Delirium (the side closer to Planet Snoopy) open as expansion plots for larger attractions (e.g. a large flat or a small coaster in the Skyflyer space and something like a Zamperla Endeavor next to Delirium). And I wanted to preserve the trees and green space around the carousel as much as possible.

On the other hand, a small flat ride replacing a game booth is (I’d argue) a net neutral to the aesthetics of the area, and it would be a straight improvement to the awful look of that arcade, and neither would take up the space of a future ride.

Unfortunately its in bad shape. Maintained like a true Six Flags ride. Half the boats are missing.

It’s also… not that interesting of a ride. I enjoyed it for the little KD history experience, but it just felt like a less intense and more monotonous version of a flying scooter or wave swinger.
