South Korea needs some help.
Disneyland and Six Flags may conjure up images of log flumes and roller coasters, long lines and egregiously priced cotton candy, but it's not always fun and games. Here are six theme parks where it's more propaganda than Pinocchio, more geopolitics than Goofy.

There is a Six Flags New Orleans that is still 1/2 underwater. Some cool pics on the web. Looks like a great place to set a movie.
