I know, it seems weird. What if they're not building anything at all?!?!?! Just kidding. Do you think Don would fool us like that?

See, here's the problem with your speculations. There is no need to retheme X-Base. It's fine as it is, and I said this in an earlier post...this isn't Disney World. Kings Island is an Amusement Park, not a crazy anamatronics - based theme park.

Guys, he also talked about "BLEEP feet long" in the video posted earlier. Doesn't that give a hint that its a ride, and elimination of an area of the park? And the "biggest" something. So, maybe a safari type ride but with DINOSAURS?!?!?!? Nah, this ain't no Disney.

What will this ride be classified as? Steel, wood? What?

Why....must....they....TEASE US?! Don Helbig, we will get revenge if this isn't real!

7. They're showing a picture of the new map. Seriously, guys?

Not even two months left until the park opens..who else is scared they won't make it?

Me being very small, I'm always scared of riding Diamondback! I just keep thinking that I'll slip through a crack.

Same with me! My friend made me go on FoF. Man, it seems like it was only two years ago...oh wait...it was.

Bondi Pipeline...any of the slides. I went on that once, thinking "Oh, this is small, it'll be fun." Then I got scared out of my mind when I went down it.

I'm not a big fan of the blue railed Racer. The white looks so much cleaner and simplistic. Especially in the winter, when there's a nice, fresh coat of SNOW on it! Great video, anyways. But, The Brady Bunch was better.

So glad Way Too Much TV is coming back! It was my favorite show of last year! (I love TV show theme songs...)

All I have to say is Cedar Fair brought the thrills, Paramount brought the family fun. Cedar Fair claims Kings Island is "family fun" but if you think about it, there could be a LOT more rides for families. I can tell that the park is leaning towards thrill now. When was the latest family ride built? Backlot Stunt Coaster, 2005 - Paramount.

Depends on how I see WindSeeker when I get to KI on opening day. I remember when Diamondback first opened I wouldn't ride it....it looked so tall and scary. That might happen now.

What's funny is, in this topic nobody's talked about kid's rides. Who knows, Woodstock Express could easily be gone within the next thirty years. It's getting old and rickety (of course, aren't all wooden coasters?)

They don't?! Whoops. Sorry 'bout that...

^I was talking about several years ago though, when my sister was too short to ride any of the kiddie rides (at age 3).

Back in 2009, while looking up Coney Island for a quick family trip, I was amazed at how bad the height restrictions were, honestly. You were either tall enough to ride the big rides, or short enough to ride the small ones (like the kiddie ones). My little sister couldn't ride much because of these problems with the restrictions.

I picked Firehawk for one because it always has the longest line due to some technical problems and bad capacity. If it opened for ERT, I might be able to ride it before any of that happens!

Heck, if you don't wanna ride WindSeeker or Vortex, just go right to Diamondback and wait till it opens. That way, you're guaranteed to get on first!

That's like comparing Disney World to Coney Island.

Let's just keep complaining, and maybe Kings Island will see! (sarcasm)

Gold passes have free parking too; who can argue with that? Just because Diamondback and Beast don't have ERT, I'm not going to get mad about buying the gold passes. Plus, aren't there at least some people here who want to ride WindSeeker before anyone else?

Remember - this is the park that said this to advertise WindSeeker: People at first would get mixed up that WindSeeker does a freefall at 64mph...just bad choice of words on Kings Island's part. That is probably what happened this time with the ERTs.

Man, all of you guys are making me mad that I didn't grow up in the 70s-80s! Sounds like such good, good times......
