I've only been to CGA, so I can't say anything about SFGam. As for the themeing, Paramount's definitely got rid of it for the Santa Clara park. However, IMO, the Gurnee park has pretty much lost it's themeing as well, with the exception of Southwest Territory. After the addition of the Dark Knight coaster, Orleans Place does not work anymore.
The Gurnee park also has a lot more land than Santa Clara does so they have a lot more attractions and more room to expand.

They won't expand any more I'm pretty sure. I think Yukon still has its theme but has no attractions except Logger's Run unless you count the kiddie areas. Mardi Gras is very well-themed. Hometown Square has barely changed and Carousel plaza is fine. With the addition of Buccaneer battle, County Fair has gone to the crapper.
I need a great day this year, or 2, or 30!

Wait a minute! I don't think you've ever been to the Santa Clara park before. According to the first post on the topic you created, you said, "i've only been to gurnee". And you also say,"i will try to check it out in 2009" on the last post on the page.: http://www.greatamericaparks.com/forums ... .php?t=689missedthemarriotera wrote:demonlover13:

I will have to say Santa Clara since I've only been to that one. I am mad, however, that SC took out the train and Triple Play.
Maybe a GREAT day is just what you need this year.
