I received the same press release because I am a member of the media. If I were younger, good looking, and had talent...I would audition.

I have both the BB and PF episodes on DVD. Both were charming shows at Kings Island.

I recall reading that there will be a roller coaster and other rides in the zoo. Last year I visited the Columbus Zoo for the first time and was impressed. Unlike my local zoo, it's in a nice neighborhood, has excellent food, musical shows, and is physically more beautiful. If I lived in or near the Columbis, I'd apply for a job at the Columbus Zoo. It is the finest zoo that I ever visited.

I am an ardent fan of Scooby Doo. But I'd happily trade SDATHC for the Phantom Theater. It was a better ride, had better music, was more original, more Disney-like, and by far more charming.

If it's about Kings Island, then, "Vortex is sinking." That's the funniest KI rumor I ever heard.

Nice voice over. I wish that Phantom Theater would come back. But I know that it won't.

I don't blame the little blue beings for the change. Traditionally speaking, KI's haunted house is changed every 10 years.

Thank you Gordon Bombay! Here are some of my favorite images taken at Kings Island in 2007. They were taken with STAR WARS actress, Mary Oyaya, who played Jedi Master Luminara Unduli in Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith. I interviewed her 3 years ago for a magazine article and we kept in touch. She visited my family last year on a stop over while touring. May the Force Be With You, Italian Chef, Jedi Knight

My favorite images taken at Kings Island in 2007. They were taken with STAR WARS actress, Mary Oyaya, who played Jedi Master Luminara Unduli in Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith. How can I post my pictures? They are not on a URL. HELP! Italian Chef

I think that the new names are a step in the right direction. Paramount no longer owns the park, nor does any of its affiliates. Why should CF pay money to Paramount to maintain names that do not relate to its business and don't augment its revenues?

I voted Loved It to all because I am very please with the de-Paramountization of KI. I'd like to see Top Gun and Congo Falls change, too.

My point is that the names aren't being dropped because people associate them with the movies, but because of the licensing. Perhaps the names Drop Zone and Congo Falls are somehow exempt. Either way, I'd like to see both names change.

I'm rather surprised that Drop Zone and Congo Falls won't change. Both were based on less than stellar Paramount movies. I was hoping that they would both get new names.

Happy Birthday Ryan! With all you do for Kings Island, you deserve a birthday party at the International Street Restaurant.

Probably not. I don't think it'll be repainted.

Considering the lawsuits, bad press, and all that could be done the land....I say remove SOB. It is an SOB!

My contact at the park told me that the name will remain. Of course I am hoping that it will change.

Greetings, The Pulse Journal has a newspaper article about Kings Island's sign change. I hope that you like reading it. http://www.journal-news.com/hp/content/oh/...1708kisign.html Best regards, Italian Chef

Didn't Gargamel eat them?

If I had the time and money, I'd love to visit. A Disney park with low attendance means that I could enjoy Disney without long lines.

I'm glad that the new sign went up on Jan 9. It is good to see the de-Paramountization of Kings Island.

I now have reason to believe that the name of Bubba Gump will stay the same. But I think that it should change.

I think and hope that the name Bubba Gump will change and all movie pictures and motifs will go away. My best guess is that the menu will stay the same and the new name will be something LIKE Cajun Shrimp Shack and the name of Lt. Dan's Bar will be something LIKE Bayou Bar. That's what I would do. Best regards, Italian Chef

It seems to me that Scooby Doo wins by a HUGE landslide. He truly is a dog of the people.

Too bad there will be no SOAR at KI this year.
