The sad part is, he requested that title, we didn't make it up for him. lol Seriously, stop the flame war. Show respect to others' opinions on here. We were yelling a pkiflife guy cause he was insulting ben.......respect others opinions? he didnt, we didnt cause he was being an ass, and Dxrunner had ntohing to do with it. He wasnt respecting anyone.

Hahahah Stan Mikitas is great!! Carowinds had one when i went (not sure if they still do.) It was hillarious seeing the ginat hockey player on top of the building that would spin around. Do you think maybe the donut place going into KI will be called Stan Mikitas?

The Beast isnt great anymore? It was just named an ACE coaster classic. And ace coaster classics all suck! (note sarcasm)

wow, your a funny guy, The Beast is not toned down at all and why would KI tear out probably the best wooden coaster in the world that still holds the record for the longest track? Its a record breaker and highly esteemed everywhere. I hope you were being sarcastic.

KI has A LOT of land to expand. Unfortuanently none of it is near NC/HBL with the exception of the picnic area. What classic rides are you hoping they bring back? Theyre losing the HB rights soon.

I really wish I couldve seen the aircraft carrier theming on top gun, I love the Navy. I love seeing the squad flags and logos hanging around there, even though half of thsoe squads are defunct. Why did they close the aircraft carrier theming?

Thats true, and Its cool to hear your kids are into those shows. I love them as well!

see your kids are into the older charecters, as am i and my sibblings but as time goes on your going to notice that the younger parents kids are into nick

Awesome pictures, I love the one of The Vortex corkscrews.

Am i high? I meant if there was another link. You guys dont always have to be dicks around here. I made a typo my mistake.

It shows, scooby doo is whats carrying HB right now. The flintstones first movie did so well cause it was geared towards adults. Why dont you compare those to some of the Nick movie earnings. The point is that HBL is going and NC will expand. NC will bring in more money over time. We cant change corporates minds.

You have a special title on a message board.....pat yourself on the back......do you sleep better at night being a dick to people on a message board? If you dont have anything to add to the discussion then just ignore it.

That still doesnt mean its going to be sucessful. CN, NICK, and Disney have all had cartoons come out in movies and produced lots of merch and even given it a tv show and promoted it like crazy....that doesnt assure it will take off.

I already know what Im gonna make.......ill take a picture of TRTR's area and edit it out with just trees and open space and put kong fu guys quote......... "TRTR IS GONE! " hahah just kidding

Rocky and Bullwinkle came out with a movie and the Flintstones even made a sequel and still less and less kids know who they are. Just cause somethings being made into a movie doesnt mean its fantastic and that it will be good.

Anyone got a better link or anything? I still cant view it.

And after I wait a year I bet even more kids will know about Nick toons and even less kids will know about HB.

Is there really any reason to call it a flame war? You dont have be an insulting a-hole. Its an argument up for discussion on these forums. You seem to get in a lot of arguments.

some familys might feel angry towards this but i dont think its a big enough number to make a difference. A lot of people are actaully sensible and realize its for safety, not all families are going to be idiots and try to argue with the ride ops over height restricitons, i hate it when people do that.....like they willa ctually convince the ride op.

Take 100 first graders from any grade school in the United States and I bet you that more of them will know who Spongebob is rather than yogi. Im not saying noen of them will have heard of yogi but Nick is on the rise.

Thats true, and im not dissing HB at all, I love HB, and higher ratings does not mean its more popular with kids. More people may watch CN but that doesnt mean more kids watch it. The reason cartoon network kills Nick in ratings is because of the jappaneese cartoons and shows like dexters lab, power puff girls, and teen titans. And kids WB isnt even considered a threat by Nickolodeon. No offense to the HB lovers at all, but the reality is as we see time go by were going to realize more and more that Nick and the newer cartoon network shows are more popular than the classics.

Bens right, it will be pretty dissapointing especially when most people wont check KI's website to see the new changes and get to the park realizing kids cant ride some of the rides they were so pumped to ride. Yes it will make a lof of people mad but I dont think it will deal a very crushing blow to KI.

Maybe your kids, myslef, my sibblings, and children of some of the users on here but the kids being born today have no clue who msot of the HB charecters are. While Im a fan of HB, Nickelodeon is beating it in ratings and money. KI is going to bring in more people with Nick charecters than HB charecters. Scooby is whats keeping HB's heart pumping.

I really hope I get to go this summer. The coasters look amazing (except for Gemini Jr.).

Keep things people like? Sure A LOT of people like HBL and the HB theming. You do, I do. All those kids who grew up wiht it do. But theres even A LOT MORE kids who like nickolodeon rides and attractions. You may not find them enjoyable but jsut you wait and see in 2006 when NC expands and you see how much money the park brings in from kids coming to the new NC.
