For millions of people, Six Flags is the standard-bearer for theme park thrills. Formerly Premier Parks, the company is the #2 amusement park operator in the world (behind Walt Disney), drawing some 25 million visitors to its 20 parks in North America. Fancying itself a regional entertainment destination, most of its parks operate under the Six Flags banner (including Six Flags Great America, Six Flags Fiesta Texas, and Six Flags Magic Mountain) offering thrill rides, water slides, and other family entertainment. Revenues come from gate receipts, food, and merchandise. Six Flags licenses characters from Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment such as Looney Tunes and Batman. Six Flags filed for bankruptcy in 2009.
