The Best Apology Video on YouTube

Subscribe for more theme park content.
Cedar Point, the Roller Coaster Capital of the World, just announced a shocking new for 2025 roller coaster called Siren's Curse. It will likely be the first roller coaster of its kind in the US and was a big surprise for people only expecting Top Thrill 2 to be a new attraction. I like to view this addition as an apology video for Top Thrill 2, so let's talk about it.

This was put together pretty quickly but I thought the title/idea was funny so I opted to make this. Don't take my theory parts too seriously, but I hope some of my thoughts were insightful. Subscribe for more theme park videos!

Only Cedar Point would try to revamp their accelerator coaster and then immediately try to build a tilt coaster

[@BirdDuck]

Bro, when I saw this in the morning, i just went, "WHAT THE FUCK!?"

[@CoasterBroCam]

I nearly choked to death on the sandwich I was eating at school when i saw it

[@ThousanWhite]

My guess is that they DID have plans for that spot, but just not for 2025. However, in early July, after the merger went through and once they started to realize that TT2 wasn't going to re-open, they pivoted and took the original plans to bring this ride to Six Flags Mexico and moved up to CP for next year instead. This is probably the first major attraction introduction that was directly influenced by the Six Flags merger.

[@ThemeParkAvenue]

That makes a lot of sense to me, it’s definitely possible.

[@leduckduck]

DO NOT SHORTEN CEDAR POINT

[@brandoncole5533]

If that's the case then that sucks. Why did Mexico have to miss out because they fucked up😭

[@RemixedVoice]

2 new coasters to ride in 2025 at Cedar Point. Vekoma has always been very nostalgic for me. As a fan, it's nice that their new coasters are world class again lol. I rode Gravity Max in 2013, and let me tell you, people love this coaster type. I love to see it back

[@ThemeParkAvenue]

Awesome that you rode Gravity Max, I’ve always thought this looked like a great ride model.

[@EliasWatsonCT]

“We are sorry for the inconveniences of Top Thrill 2. Please accept this Vekoma tilt coaster as our apology.”

[@highoctanegames]

LITERALLY TRUE

Cedar Point apology video before gta 6

[@lightningboat]

*Cedar Point apology video before Top Thrill 2

[@greg_216]

I agree. It feels like this was decided this summer. Bump the 2026 project to 2027 and slide this one into the lineup for 2025. Takes some of the heat off of Top Thrill 2.

[@AirplanesAndAirtime]

Lmao calling it an apology is hilarious

[@brutalhellhamerer]

They’re literally getting revamped Top Thrill Dragster, god forbid they have to wait, did they really need this? Did all of the CF parks need to be passed up so Cedar Point could get this?

[@EveryoneIsFamily]

Isn't Top Thrill 2 itself Siren's Curse? The payback for the park hooked on bragging? 1978 - Gemini - World's tallest coaster.* (Not the world's tallest coaster at the time / Loch Ness Monster.) 1989 - Magnum XL200 - World's first hypercoaster.* (Not the first hypercoaster / Moonsault Scramble.) 2000 - Millennium Force - World's tallest coaster.* (Shuttle coasters don't count. Until 2 years later when Cedar Point gets one. Then they do.) (2002 - Shhh: A 200' VertiGo tower falls down in the off-season.) 2003 - Top Thrill Dragster - 120 mph (Didn't go 120 mph according to operator ElToroRyan.) 2024 - Top Thrill 2 - More Reliability (More than zero that is. Open for about a week.) 2025 - Siren's Curse - Karma catching up with the park that can't stop shouting about how great it is. Seriously, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Did anyone else notice the industrial steel pollution theming of coaster named "Iron Menace"?

[@troyazok3089]

On top of all of that, just think about this for a second… this coaster’s grand opening alongside a re-opening of Top Thrill 2 next year? This will catch some eyes, THAT’s for sure.

[@bigblueamusementproductions]

I like this addition, but my one complaint is the colors. The colors look nice don't get me wrong, but red and black doesn't fit the theming. Imo ocean blue track with white or silver supports would be the best color scheme for this especially along the marina. Maybe a red/white color pattern on the tilt tower supports to actually make it look like a shipping crane that it's supposed to represent in the storyline.

[@ThemeParkAvenue]

I think the colors fit the story line, but I can understand them not fitting the lake atmosphere well. Maybe they could paint the lift hill like the crane and the rest like the water, but that would probably be risky.

[@michael7054]

Great video! I think about everyone will forgive Cedar Point now. I really enjoyed watching this!

[@Kittyhat]

Honestly sad this didn't go to Six Flags Mexico, Cedar Point should have gotten the flying coaster that was supposed to go there a while ago

[@matthewramirez4678]

Looks awesome but why is there so much freaking red at cedar point

[@imabiggnoob]

Give valleyfair this cedar fair/six flags, valleyfair needs a new roller coaster with inversions and this is a perfect fit. Give it 4 inversions so it has the most in the states and give at a lot of ejector airtime as that’s something the park also desperately needs and you’re got a new best ride at the park. Plus, it’s probably way cheaper than a new b&m or intamin, so you got a new cheaper unique ride with a great ride experience. It would be a great way to end my home parks almost 20 year coaster drought

[@saucepoint5296]

Making valravn to rougarou a mythical creature horror section of the park would be really cool cause it would have this valravn rougarou and iron dragon which all fit the theme

[@christopherc2780]

if CP can pull this off and open two new coasters thats one hell of a year for an already stacked park. This was the coaster that was gonna go to Six Flags Mexico right? Surprised they moved it here but after this years bad press they probably wanted a sure thing with this new coaster just in case TT2 is bigger problem than thought. That actually might be the case cause would they double up if TT2 was looking ready to open up on opening day?

[@Jackp499]

Having ridden Lech Coaster and Abyssus modern Vekomas feel very different than anything at CP this is definitely a good fit

[@airbus7373]

If the theory about the Energylandia track being at SFM and now going to Cedar Point is true, then it would make sense that they could build this quickly, without any leaks or rumors going around beforehand. Still, this makes me even more excited for a CP trip soon.

[@godzilla46367]

regardless if it was meant for cedar point or not i’m happy it’s happening this will be cedar points major ground up coaster since valraven

[@SwitchAnimationsGacha]

No the first one doesn’t count 😓 it’s just a normal turn

[@saucepoint5296]

I heard that six flags Mexico didn’t get the permits to build the ride

[@marlenagavel]

Sirens curse looks like a good ride. I hope it will make the iron dragon popular. They are both good rides.

[@c-tha-man9463]

Great addition. People keep forgetting, CP removed a lot of attractions in the last 5 to 6 years vs what they've added. But people need to curb their enthusiasm that it'll open on Opening Day. That's not happening. lol. Reason they put, "Summer of 2025"

[@ThemeParkAvenue]

I grew up going to Busch Gardens Tampa and that taught me to expect delays in opening. I’m definitely excited for this though.

[@heathconely3573]

I feel like many other cedar point parks could have used this carowinds kings island heck give it to one of the smaller parks the ride seems not that large so it would fit there

[@F7PRO37]

I just wish they change the paint for the Harley Quinn and joker theme

[@asiahill1212]

I’m excited for this new roller coaster 🎉

[@michaelbianco32]

If Top Thrill 2's problems continue into next year, it's really good for the park's image to have this "apology"/distraction to have this new-to-America, high quality, legitimately great coaster to focus their attention on while TT2 either does or doesn't work out.

[@tdubb3254]

Yeah, honestly, this to me means they’re expecting next year to be a wash for TT2

[@darreng1337]

Why are y’all whining? Then don’t ride it. Ever. I’ll take your turns every time! On TT2 and Siren’s Curse. Stay tf home.

[@rollercoasterheaven2170]

I'm not bothered one bit by this new coaster

[@robertcherman]

This is not an apology rollercoaster. Come on guys! You have to be better than this. Almost everyone is saying that. This is part of the plan. Go back the Cedar Point's 150 anniversary and listen to the plan. A place like this is not going to just put something together last minute. I think they are on their way to retake the thrown of having the most coasters. Cedar Point loves to break records. Don't be surprised if they don't make a coaster every year or every other year until they get that record.

[@brandoncole5533]

This feels VERY much last minute. The lack of theming, the color scheme, the lack of promos, and the location all seems extremely sloppy and thrown together quicker than other coasters promos. They didn't even bother making sure their logo wasn't clipping through itself. Look at all the other promos and then look at this. Also in the extremely likely (almost guaranteed) instance that this is the SF Mexico coaster, then this started to get planned after the merger was finalized which wasn't even that long ago. This also could mean that this was ripped from SF Mexico to cover up TT2. Which Is pretty bad.

[@robertcherman]

@@brandoncole5533 I would agree with you, but I do know from watching stuff just before the 150th anniversary, that Cedar Point had a ten year plan of stuff coming to Cedar Point, and that was only 3 years ago. So, I would assume they are sticking to that 10 year plan they talked about 3 years ago. And when Six Flags and Cedar Point merged, they said they were not going to change anything at Cedar Point. Which also makes me believe this has been part of their plan. I found nothing wrong with their teaser and their announcement. The announcement video still seems like a teaser, it felt like it was missing something. Probably on purpose. Did you even notice the coaster layout in the girls hair on the first teaser video? I did. I thought they were putting in a coaster even before the teaser. Because I remember their plan. And during the 150th anniversary plan video Cedar Point made, I believe the guy talked about the Sirens concept, without giving too much detail. Just brought up the lore. This was planned a long time ago. And, if you think a major amusement park is just going to do something without a plan, that is just ludacris. This stuff takes years to plan.

[@Valibativecreo]

Take the record down on their own park? Magic Mountain is their park.
