Word on the street is Charlize Theron will be there for the Italian Job: Stunk Track media preview. Wow, just wow if this is true.

Because you're a dick.

What happened is Paramount wants to be more like Six Flags (isn't that scary) and move rides around from park to park. Paramount didn't sell the ride to Carrowinds since that is one of their parks, so it could easily stay. If you stand up for what you strongly believe in, you can truly make a difference.

I call for us to all come together as a community and fight to keep this ride here. It is truly the best ride in the park and the park is not the true Kings Island without it. Who's up for starting a picket line??? :evil:

Has anyone thought for just a minute that maybe the people that actually run the parks are not really making all the decisions, but the people way high up in Paramount are telling these park executives that they need to theme certain rides to certain movies. Maybe the reasoning of theming more rides is because the higher-ups in Paramount think it will benefit sales in movies and maybe it will help people to recognize these movies and get them interested in them so they will go home and buy it? I don't really know, but it is hard for me to think that the people who really run the parks would theme these rides to ridiculous movies like these. I did think that Paramount was doing a good job with PKI, but now I'm beginning to think that the higher-ups in Paramount are making demands to the park executives that will decrease the quality in the various Paramount parks. Just my two cents and maybe someone else might agree or see where I'm coming from.

Not to be harsh, but are you completely clueless??? I mean seriously, listen to yourself. Taken from the dictionary: Fear - A feeling of agitation and anxiety caused by the presence or imminence of danger. So when they call something fearfest it is because they want to make you scared and afraid. You, greenghost, and that other one need to realize that just because you guys don't like to be scared doesn't mean that Fearfest sucks. I, and I'm sure many other people on this site too, are tired of hearing you guys say everything sucks because it doesn't have Scooby Doo or Spongebob in it, or it isn't for little kids so it sucks. From what I see, Fearfest is going to be great this year. Check out the Fearfest picture in the PKIC gallery; it looks like they are returning to the quality theming they had the first year. I am very excited about this event and I hope that the people on this site who don't like Fearfest would just shut their yap because it is very annoying.

Nice report!

Some people may say that SOB is too rough, but I happen to disagree. It might be a little rough but I still think it is the best ride in AZ.

WTF would make you think that PKI would rebuild KC?

I'd like to write an editorial. How do I get approved?

I think a Jackass: The Ride theme would be sweet.

I don't think it sounds too good.

It does look like PKI is going after more theming, but I think that they will go more towards the Universal route with a mix of thrills and theming. Disney is pretty much a "family" park, but I don't think that PKI wants to only be a "family" park.

I agree. Most people don't know that Adventure Express is the most popular coaster in the park. The way Jeff was talking about AE, it seems like the coaster will stay there for a long time. Even if AE isn't the most thrilling coaster around, it still is very important to PKI.

It looks like PKI will be heading more towards theming than anything else. The park has been using the phrase "Where movie magic comes to life." With PKI saying that you know they are going to incorporate more theming into their rides.

I didn't even go to Waterworks last year, and I know I'll go at least once to Boomerang Bay to check it out.

I took the survey. I would hate to see the Adam's Family theme, but if PKI could pull off the Italian Job theme right, then it would be cool. I also, think that we will see something themed to Star Trek in the next few years at PKI.

Can anyone on here who went to the tour give us a trip report?

I'd ride Tomb Raider. That drum beat is just calling me.

Without BORG, the new flyer at Carowinds wouldn't have a Star Trek theme.

Jackass: The Ride would be the sh*t. What could be better than riding a roller coaster with shopping cart trains? With all the theming PKI could pull out with a ride like this there is a great chance that it would be very popular.

Probably what every other Paramount Park is getting.
