The Synonym Game

I got this idea from playing the board game Scene It. Since this is a roller coaster site and all then coaster names will do in a pinch. The rules? Think of a coaster name (prefereably a 2 word or compound name) and replace it with different words that mean the same thing. For example...

Ill-Tempered Rodent is...Mad Mouse

I'll give ya an easy one to start out on. Whoever guesses first makes the next one.

One thousand years against your will.

^why don't you follow the rules, and correctly guess Diesel's first. Just a thought though, do whatever you think feels right.

Montu Man, you're WAY OUTTA LINE!!! But Dueling Dragons.

As for the real question, I'm still thinking. Thats a toughy. Wait! A revelation. Diesal, I think that you are playing by the exact opposite rules. I think you are using antanyms (opposite) not synanyms (same). Thats what was throwing me off. Space Mountain.

Really....

Well then, somebody help me out.

Terrestrial-ground, earth, dirt, land
Depression-Canyon, hole, valley, possibly something to do with sadness

Can anybody make something of these or another word I haven't thought of. But you do realize, Diesal, how one could assume you were using opposites, considering the fame of Space Mountain, because that would fit like a glove.

Well, I said I wasn't using antonyms, which was true. But, I wasn't using synonyms either. I just put two random words together.

So, essentially, you didn't do it right either way? I mean, it IS the Synonym Game.

Montu Man, I don't know what the answer is, but does it include the word Superman by any chance?
