  1. I love how you accuse him of never haveing been there when youve never been there yourself. Paramount does theme and run their parks better than SF parks, the problem with SF is their debt.
  2. Agreed, if you start a topic about IJST experiences and only want to hear good experiences then name the topic "Good experiences on IJ". There are a lot of idiots on this board and when someone doesnt agree with them they cry. I agree with PKIBEast. This is PKI Centrals 3rd Reich And YoungStud, you obviously dont know crap, PKI isnt rated highest in attendance because of the water park and the locals, the water park isnt even open year round, so many people come here because of its good reputation and variety in rides.
  3. ^MGM always had the rights, paramount just leased them I think.
  4. Smash factory was a good one.
  5. Thats incorrect. This is the way the Italian Job line is working now, its very smiliar to walk on weekends and Fast Pass at the disney parks: Italian Job is open to all guests. All guests can wait in the regular que line but if your a GOLD season pass holder then you may go to information kiosk under the eifel tower facing towards the international showplace and HB and present your GOLD season pass to receive an "Italian Job Stunt Track speed lane ticket"! This ticket has a time on it when you can go ride and by pass the usually long regular que line. When your correct time has come (No earlier, no later! You have an hour to get there) you may go to the ride and present your ticket to the employee out front. They will let you into the gold pass speed lane which will get you on with usually about a 5 minute wait. I hope that finally clears everything up. The topic can probably be closed now.
  6. Uhm I dont really see how you can criticize since you dont work on the ride, or in rides for that matter, and have no idea how its run from an employee stand point. Do me a favor.........get your act together andas Hablo said, "shut up and go make french fries!"
  7. NOt anymore. If you want to cut ahead of the regular line you can get a gold pass speed lane ticket by going to the information kiosk under the eifel tower. If you dont have a gold pass then you must wait in the regular line.
  8. So if you dont wanna carry all that crap, then why doa ctions that will make oyu carry it if your not gonna put forth the effort to be responsible. Im sorry but brining a full fledged backpack into the park is stupid, especially when there ntohing necessary in it.
  9. Yes and you could drive right by the exploding soccer fields and get chased by menacing shopping carts (not real shooping carts, that woul be crazy!) in the krogers parking lot
  10. They are, they can come in handy in case of an emergency and to check in with my parents and stuff.
  11. The problem with taking bags is, is that guests dont read the signs. It says we are not responsible, our number one priority is the safety and correct operation of the ride not why Suzy left her purse out in the open and now its gone. I dont see why guests bring backpacks into the park. Especially men. What the hell is in there that is so important? Its a hassle to get it through security and a hassle to carry around. I could see if you needed to bring a change of clothes for swimming and such, but cant you keep the extra clothes in your car, or wear your swim trunks and ride rides then go swimming. I had some lady try to give me a duffle bag once and she complained when It didnt fit in the bins and she wanted me to hide it in the drive box, I cant stand it when pepople dont think things through. When I go to the park, I bring my keys wallet and phone, only the things I'm going to need.
  12. A SF park better than KI? You have got to be kidding me, I really hope this whole topic was done in sarcasm cause SF = S**t.
  13. Have you missed that coaster over in Coney mall called The Vortex? Thats big and steel.
  14. Its funny how theres no realy facts to this topic, just rumors and "guesses". Delerium will be up when its up, have you people ever though that the park isnt telling you the whole truth because they dont want you to misinterpret the situation? Thats why no ones telling you exactly whats going on, because topics like this get started and rumors fly and misconceptions grow........soon someone will say "I heard Delerium is sinking" or something stupid like that.
  15. IJST, because early in the morning is the only time you will find a tolerable wait time.
  16. ^Giggling green ghost is right, a hyper coaster would be nice but theres nothing to theme it to and it doesnt meet KI's promotional focus, Someone said theme it to Top Gun or Braveheart. Uhm, well If I recall correctly, there was no track beneath the airplanes in Top Gun and we already have a Top Gun themed ride, and how do you theme a hyper coaster to Brave Heart? That just makes no sense at all. Star Trek would be an all right theme for a Hyper Coaster, but, wheres the theme? Italian job is themed to be a movie stunt driver, but I dont really see how a hyper coaster would work for star trek, you cant put a story line and it wouldnt feel like your in space. A hyper coaster is not in the works for PKI, its jsut obvious.
  17. ^Yeah..........that good ol flying sensation.....that wonderful feeling everytime I get up in an air plane and see the track underneath me!
  18. ^Not a B&M floorless, that wouldnt work with a top gun theme.
  19. HAHAHah a B&M floorless? Themed to what? Paramoutn wants to build themed rides that appeal to families. A B&M has about a 0.004% chance.
  20. Viacom had their parks on the market awhile ago but decided not to sell them. There were rumors that Cedar Fair was looking at the park but that was never confirmed. The chain was never on the market long enough for potential buyers to make claims, I think if Viacom wants to seel their parks they will want to sell the chain, not just each park individually.
  21. PKI wants rides they can make themes too.......I cant really think of a paramount movie that they could theme a hyper coaster to. I would love to see one, yet I dont see one coming soon. But we do need another big coaster!
  22. ^Different strokes for different folks......unfortuanently thrill seeking coaster enthusiasts isnt PKI's target market anymore....its families.......so family friendly rides is what theyre gonna put in cause the famlies are brining in the most money and attendance to them. It may not please all of us, but hey, its making money for the park.
  23. Thye wouldnt do Titanic, theyd be too worried about offending guests and not being sensitive to the lives lost on that accident that the movie is based on. A family park is not a park where you go to ride a 3d ride based on a terrible true event where real people died. Titanic the movie sucked. I would bet Paramount would add a Titanic 3D ride but it would be like a voyage where you would board a sub and take a stroll within the sea plus it was a on the concept surveys so yea. That makes more sense, it would be like you are robert goddard and exploring the site, but anything themed to the movie is just disrespectful and lame.
  24. The problem with walk on weekends is that most gold pass holders dont take the time to read about the perks they have and follow the instructions. On The Beast we have a regular line and a gold pass line that run side by side. A lot of times gold pass holders will be waiting in the regular line and see that the line next to them is a gold pass lane and they will ho over, however they dont know what theyre supposed to do and they dont have their ride time tickets. So when they get up tot he station and dont have tickets they are sent to the eifel tower kiosk to go get their tickets. The system works great if people only read the instructions, its the same with double ride tuesdays, people think jsut cuase they have a gold pass they can sit in any seat and ride twice, yet if they read their gold pass flyer theyd know you have to be in a certain lane. It just amazes me how easy it is to take 5 minutes and learn how to use the perks correctly, and a lot of guests do, but there are still so many who dont. Does anyone know if today is a Bring a friend free day (I pray to god its not)?
