Introducing... Sir Pretzel!

Sir Pretzel = Pretzel Dark Rides… duh. He looks great! Archie:

I actually really love Sir Pretzel and the reasoning behind his name, he’s my favorite now because there’s no previous design from the original to compare him to. (I had a shock seeing they slightly changed Lionel’s outfit in the background and I’m hoping they do him justice (as if he was a vital character in the original)) Also RIP Bosco for real now, iykyk.

I believe 2017 was the last time KI hosted dive in movie nights. However, they hosted the "Island Nights" glow party with ERT on select water rides in Soak City in 2018 and 2019. I believe 2020 they were going to introduce a new "Summer Nights" event in Action Zone, but Covid messed that up and that whole concept was shelved and never revisited. I also would like to see Coaster Camp Out return in some form which was held up until Covid.

Introduction to new characters that we are about to encounter. Mr. Pretzel is one of those "friends."

Thanks, that means a lot.

I’d say you’re probably right. Maybe Archie as well!

Kings Island has held "Dive In" movies at Soak City before, they just stopped either due to COVID or logistical issues. If they were to do it again I'd rather see it held in a different area of Soak City in case the fact of it being in a wave pool was one of the larger problems. I could believe that it's harder to perform wave pool lifeguard duties at night, even with somewhat adequate lighting. Maybe it could be held in one of / across all of the lounge pools or in a new large lounge pool.

The first time I ever watched The Mummy was at Cabana Bay's pool! But Six Flags is not Universal or Disney. But all you really need is a projector and a projector screen, so it is a possibility. I've been to some small indoor water parks and even they have movies playing in the wave pool. Should KI do it? Yes. Could KI do it? Yes. Will they do it? Probably not. If they can't have all of the lights that are on the Christmas train at KI lit, how are they going to put a movie on in the wave pool? Cool idea though, I think this would be really cool!

Oops, sorry for the confusion, I was referring to Kings Island's/Six Flags' social media team. I think the whole KIC team does a great job with their social media Maybe the KIC team could also make a post about it! Especially if y'all have a more recent photo with all three rides in it.
