There have been rumors going around that Epcot could be getting a new attraction. If it is major, it would be the first major attraction since Soarin' which opened in 2005. And it would join Epcot's unique attractions like Soarin', Mission: Space, and possibly WDW's best attraction and the most highly themed, Test Track.

Deja Vu to go to Six Flags New England
Six Flags Magic Mountain took the crown of 18 roller coasters this year. But next year, they might have 17. Deja Vu, a Vekoma Giant Inverted Boomerang coaster, might be leaving by the end of this year. If this is true, Six Flags New England will be the park to recieve the ride. But sadly, Shipwreck Falls will be removed from the park. Shipwreck Falls has operated there since 1997 when the park was called Riverside Park. Deja Vu has been operating at Magic Mountain since 2001 and is the only Deja Vu operating at it's original park.
