What ride did KI make the biggest mistake in getting ride of
WesReviews replied to Beasttamer's topic in KI Polls
King Cobra. -
Just curious... what Pinball machines (if any) does the arcade have? Planning a trip this Summer and I'm a big pinball fan. Wondering what I can look forward to playing when I go. Thanks!
-
Awesome news! King Cobra, next! King Cobra, next! King Cobra, next! *crossing fingers*
-
Would it be possible (if any props still remain, of course) to use some of Phantom Theater's props inside the station of Banshee? Would add to the theme, I think.
-
What do the t-shirts look like? Anyone got pics? And why aren't they selling them online yet?? *Looks at Kings Island marketplace website* "New for 2012!!" Ohhhhhh.

I reaaaaaally hope they'll consider adding actual, permanent tombstones for each of these rides somewhere near the enterance or the station. Would make a great photo op area for us longtime Kings Island fans and supporters.

I want a Banshee t-shirt, like now.

Can't stop watching that teaser video. So awesome that the Banshee "screams" down Son of Beast. haha!
-
Awesome! I realize the tombstones and fog along the ground were probably done only for effect on the video, but I hope they'll consider adding actual tombstones with the former ride names on them. Would love to have my picture made next to them outside the line queue next spring. I think it'd be a classy addition to the ride. Can't wait for 2014!

Any word on what the original theme/name to Top Gun was to have been?
-
Did he mean Cousteau, (diver) or Clouseau (inspector)?
-
Looks like they found a way to make SoB a smoother ride after all.

Dollywood's Wild Eagle nears completion
WesReviews replied to 06jds377's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
This thing looks awesome. Haven't been to Dollywood since it was known as Silver Dollar City. Might have to make a trip for this. -
Bluegrass Boardwalk Or Kentucky Kingdom
WesReviews replied to mccarthysnerd's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Bluegrass Boardwalk sounds too... bluegrassy. As in the music genre. I for one would never visit an amusement park if I even suspected I'd have to hear banjo and fiddle music 24/7. Kentucky Kingdom doesn't have the best positive brand recognition, but it's by far the more superior name. Good, consistent ownership can undo any negative feelings brought upon by past incidents. That said, I wouldn't be opposed to changing it to something more generic in line with their other park... Holiday Kingdom or Holiday Land or something like that. -
Cincy Company Producing Old KI Ride Logo T-Shirts

Doh! Sorry! I really did search first. -
Cincy Company Producing Old KI Ride Logo T-Shirts
WesReviews replied to WesReviews's topic in Kings Island
I was thinking this, too! Also, if Cedar Fair let all their trademarks expire on King Cobra and the older rides, why (according to the article) would they still have to give their permission for these shirts? If they no longer have claim to the names/logos. Just something that crossed my mind. -
I looked and couldn't believe there wasn't a thread for this already. Comedian Creates Line of Local Shirts The Bat - Logo T-Shirt King Cobra - Logo T-Shirt Screamin' Demon - Logo T-Shirt These look great! I know I plan on ordering a couple of these.

PETA Accuses SeaWorld Of Animal Slavery
WesReviews replied to coaster_junky's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Does anyone actually take PETA seriously anymore? -
From Bloody-Disgusting.com... "Filming is officially set for the end of May in North Carolina for John Gulager's Piranha 3 Double D, which reteams him with Feast writers Patrick Melton and Marcus Dustan. This afternoon we got our hand on the first ever plot details: The sequel continues down the path of "ridiculous" as the piranha this time make their way into swimming pools, pipes, plumping and such at a newly opened waterpark named "Wilderness Waters"! The race is on to save the town from these flesh-eating creatures that are leaving a bloodbath in their wake. In theaters November 23, Dimension Films is working on ensuring a "real" 3-dimensional experience. I want to see even more gore!" So far, I've found no info as to which park in NC they will be filming. Anyone know? Never saw the first one, but I hear it's cheesy fun. I would expect no less from this one, especially if it takes place in a waterpark. So many possibilities.

Thanks, Terp. Was kind of hoping they were landlocked. In theory, they could relocate some of their coasters to other parks *ahem* in the Cedar Fair family, to make room for newer attractions. For example, I wouldn't mind seeing Raptor show up at KI. Though, it'll never happen.
