I really hate that Paramount Parks rides movie names were renamed to generic ones.
From Wikepedia:
'Without the Paramount Pictures film licenses, many of the rides at the Paramount Parks were renamed to more generic names so as not to infringe on Paramount's copyrights. Many of these changes were "in name only," having no actual bearing on the rides appearance. Because of the level of theme involved in Paramount's later rides, though, (such as The Italian Job: Stunt Track and Tomb Raider: the Ride) some rides did lose core elements, such as synchronized musical scores, special effects, and pre-shows (thereby eliminating story lines).
* Drop Zone: Stunt Tower was renamed Drop Tower at all five parks.
* Top Gun: The Jet Coaster was renamed Flight Deck with the exception of Carowinds', which was renamed Afterburn.
* FACE/OFF at Kings Island was renamed Invertigo.
* The Italian Job: Stunt Track at Kings Island, Kings Dominion, and Canada's Wonderland were all renamed Backlot Stunt Coaster.
* Tomb Raider: The Ride and Tomb Raider: FireFall at Kings Island and Kings Dominion respectively were both renamed The Crypt.
* Days of Thunder go-kart tracks were renamed Thunder Alley.
* Paramount Action-FX Theater was renamed Action Theater.
* The Paramount Theatre was renamed after each park it was located in (e.g. Kings Island Theatre).
Perhaps the most notable change between park owners, Kings Island's $20,000,000, indoor Tomb Raider: The Ride had its water effects, lasers, Hollywood lighting, pre-show, synchornized musical score, film props, artificial fog, and flame effects removed. Notably, Kings Dominion's The Crypt, similar to Kings Island's except that it was outdoors, retained all of its original themeing, music, film props, lighting, fog, and flames.'
What sounds cooler, 'Hey, I rode the Top Gun coaster at Paramount's Carrowinds this summer!', or, "Hey, I rode the Flight Deck Coaster at Carrowinds!'
Why call it paramount parks and not use the full library of their movies available to make rides and shows from, including Star Trek? Star Trek is ripe for a theme park all it's own. Use the 'Lands' method from Disney and Universal.
The main area could be Starfleet Command. Each land could be a quadrant, Alpha, Beta, etc. Alpha Quadrant could be TOS, Movie Era, Beta Quadrant could be Enterprise, Gamma Quadrant could be TNG, and DS9, and of course Delta Quadrant would be Voyager. It would almost be like exploring the galaxy this way.
