Let's go Beasts!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't they release Mystic Timber's POV on media day?

I wonder if they got the chain for the lift in...

Can one of the admins please combine the two 2020 Discussion threads? Thanks.

John Materese was waving at people from above. How out of all people, did YOU miss that?!?

If you want to generate hype and advertising this is the way to go.

Was thinking the Freestyle in Rivertown would of been it, but I guess I was wrong.

It just turned midnight which means it's now 2020 and we are a step closer to Opening Day and riding Orion. It's gonna be a great year for the park. Have a great year everybody!

Critiques usually happen on horrible videos. I'm just calling it on clickbait. Stating "NO MORE ICONIC STATION!!!" is absolutely incorrect and they're just posting it on the forum for views.

I'm dissapointed they took out Pink's. Was easily a guest favorite (saw a lot of backlash on social media). Replacing it with a mac and cheese bar makes no senses, especially given the fact it was the one of few Pinks on this side of the United States.

Yeah. One major flaw. You said Michigan's Adventure.

They're signaling Batman. Joking aside, it may be them just lighting up the area. It's already gone.

I have to say, I've never been more excited for Orion until I drove by tonight. Seeing the lift hill complete was incredible. It's amazing seeing it loom behind Diamondback when you're getting off the exit. That's going to be one heck of a drop.

It's definently for all. Me and my friends did it. I've seen people of all ages get in line.

That is one thing at WinterFest I never expected to really enjoy.

Kings Island posted a clip of the topping of Orion on their YouTube:

That's just how people are sometimes. I would choose to not even give people your time and effort by explaining how ridiculous the theories are. It will prevent a lot of useless content.

Was going through old Diamondback construction photos on the KIC photo gallery to see how it compares to Orion's construction. Here's a link if anyone wants it: https://www.KICentral.com/photos/displayimage.php?album=293&pid=7366#top_display_media

I still really enjoy this ride. Most visits I don't ride it because of the line, but I do like it. It throws me around a bit, but it doesn't stop me from riding it. I really enjoy the theming, so I'm hoping with Orion bringing a fresh look to the area they add more to it.

That drop looks fantastic. I love that most of it is hidden from most viewpoints in the park. Especially the gate.

It is going to take a while to get use to the absence of Vortex's looming structure. I'm not terribly sad that is leaving, but I will definitely miss seeing it at the park. I thought it was only right to ride in the very back row (far side) for my last ride. It was one heck of a ride. Made some great memories riding this with several different people, and I'm gonna miss it.

Just heard a guest say that they're building "The New Beast" and it should be ready by next year. Why did no one tell me this?!? I should listen to the Dippin' Dots guy more often.
