And the battle rages on...

Falcons Fury at Busch Gardens Tampa
fanofFirehawk replied to Colonel_SoB_fan's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Very lovely hyperlink... But.... It does seem to lead anywhere... -
To be honest I'm sure about the yellow. Yes, probably better than Gatekeeper's red, but I think purple or blue wood've look Beast.

Not sure if this has been brought up but is it concerning any of the other brick paver advocates that they has dug the circle with such precision? I would think that if they were too install pavers they would just rip the entire thing off. Perhaps it is for trucking equipment to not have to go over dirt for the time being. Doubt the would want to risk damaging the paving with all that machinery. It is typically one the last things to go if I'm not mistaken. But that still does let explain why they would dig the circle. My guess is that they are just getting rid of the big target. Just a few of a fans thoughts...

So when the trains arrive will we know? I would think they would head to the maintenance department for inspect and preparation, as well as it just keep it out of the elements until closer to opening day.

Tear it down. A fan who must now get to math.

Am I the only slightly disappointed with the angle of the roof? I was hoping for it to a bit steeper. I guess that is just how I see a church and/or awesome buildings.

The Bat flies again at Kings Island
fanofFirehawk replied to a topic in Kings Island Central Newsroom
Is it just me or has the awesome-ization of The Bat slowed down? -
*Cough* Trams *Cough* *Cough* Cedar fai... *Cough* Get new *Cough* Trams...

That is the most on topic thing that I have read on this thread in a while.

To be honest I wouldn't care for a surprise tunnel like has been discussed above and back. If we had an underground tunnel in with the track fully dove into some sort of hole or cave that would be cool. But really if we get anything it'll be some ugly metal tube sticking out like a sore thumb in front such an amazing sight. A ditch would be more excepible but I would really just prefer to fly over an celtic graveyard if you don't mind rather than through two walls of concrete(well I guess not through, but between.)

Avatarland update?
fanofFirehawk replied to Colonel_SoB_fan's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
This is business, Disney thinks they can introduce young children going to the parks to the franchise and make even more money. See Marvels campaign, creating content for all age groups, essentially raiding lovers of the comic so they are always with them. My brother adores The Ultimate Spider-Man, my mom and dad and I watch Agents of SHEILD on Tuesdays and go see the movies. When jakes grows up he will do the same... -
Addition of Banshee to Fast Lane Lineup?
fanofFirehawk replied to BloodBlade21's topic in Kings Island
Fastlane plus exists, it is here, it ain't going anywhere. I strong believe that Banshee will be a part of the plus category. It is what the general public expects aswell, they would expect for the new ride to be in the most premium sub-catogory. Why not have three extra on plus? As terp has said many times, " you haven't seen nothing yet." -
If I have learned anything from Parks and Rec is that saying sorry admits fault and makes them liable for what happened, Cedar Fair doesn't want that.

The first thing that went through my head was "challenge accepted!" But in all honesty you do take awesome photographs, I actually have a few sliding through a playlist of wallpapers on my Laptop.

It isn't Firefly, let it die!

They should remove the desolate Crypt off the map, and just add it in during the haunt, that really bothers me for some reason. They should also make Fli.... The Bat stand out more, but being next to Banshee... Maybe point more towards the shows they offer? I'm not sure about much else, I really like the the current maps style, and the way it is drawn.

I know this may come as a shock to a lot of you, but I actually voted for the other category. Considering Manta apart of that. Manta is my favorite coaster I have ever rode, in some ways it was my first "big" coaster, it was a major transition for me too some bigger rides like Top Thrill Dragster and Diamondback, and even The Kraken that resided with in the same park. I remember vividly the first time I gazed upon the beautiful blue masterpiece. My friends and I were staying at the Sea World renaissance hotel so just over the way we could see the fantastic park awaiting us. To be perfectly honest, I was quite nervous about riding it. But I ended up climbing into the front seat with my friends, all in a row. With in minutes we were brought to horizontal position and ascending the lift. I let my head hang as I looked down upon the netting over the midway. We began to crest the top of the hill and we picked up speed flying so incredibly smooth. I just found the entire experience awesome. It proved to me that even I was scared to ride something that I would still enjoy it in the end(well... Mean Streak...). Some things that make Manta so awesome aren't something you'd might expect. For one the queue is outstanding. Incorporating an aquarium is very good, considering you are in Sea World. The feel of is really cool and entertaining while you wait in lines. The landscaping is also an important part to it. The foliage and way it is maintain and was designed is very nice and welcoming. The pond you dive over actually makes for a convincing pond (I'm looking at your Diamondback ). And it is just an all around great ride. DISCLAIMER: That is probably the only exception to my precious Firehawk...

Judging by the improvement of our "sister" park, Kings Dominion is receiving I would be willing to bet not only will the floral clock be with us for quite awhile but will receive a lot more love making it a functional teller of time that guests can look upon with awe.

But it isn't the same to not be able to watch a graceful cloud of dust erupt from the ground with the swift swipe of the boot and have it lethargically drift away dissipating through the wind.
-
I'm pretty sure we have the same thing. Plus don't we have Banshee ice cream now?
-
We are still Paramount's in their book... Awe...

I see that as one step towards International Street Renovations coming soon. We did see them get painted in fall so... A hopeful fan, with his fingers crossed...

^^ Probably something none of could afford.
