Could backwards blue racer be making a return next year?
SonofBaconator replied to Thabto's topic in Kings Island
That seems like a strange thing to do. Why throwback something taken out over a decade ago? All its gonna do is get us excited for something that was just an easter egg. -
Okay I'm gonna go make another speculatuon thread that'll span years
-
Sooo are we done here?

I'm one of the few people who likes the entrance how it is. There's nothing cooler than walking into the park and having all of international Street open up. I think having a coaster right as you walk up to the gates takes away from the park's centerpiece which is the Eiffel Tower.

Canada's Wonderland 2020
SonofBaconator replied to Rivertown Rider's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
The only issue I have is that it's not an enclosed environment like a slide or even a slide complex where you drop in a tube. All it takes is for one person to land the wrong way in smack their back or something worse. At my old pool where I used to lifeguard we had a man pass away after going into cardiac arrest because his body went to shock when he dove into the deep end. -

The diving attraction looks like fun, not often seen big chain waterparks. Usually parks opt for enclosed attractions lilke slides so this will certainly be different! -
Dorney Park 2020
SonofBaconator replied to Oldiesmann's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I'm trying to remember if CF installed any coasters when F325 was built. Usually if a park installs a big B&M, the rest of the parks in the chain are lucky to get a coaster that same season- unless its something cheap like RMC or GCI. A raptor wouldn't be too far off but with Hydra in the same park its unlikely. -
People are arguing left and right Just want to see what members think. Things have gotten out of hand

Which Cedar Fair parks have the best lineups?
SonofBaconator replied to FUN&ONLY!'s topic in KI Polls
We'll always be behind as long as Steel Vengeance still stands. Its easily the best coaster built. -
B&M King Cobra. I'd ride it.

Much like how Banshee changed the landscape and theme of Action Zone, or at least half of it, I think we'll see a radical change to Xbase in terms of theming and landscaping. One of the buildings was already repainted to mimic the FoF facade.

Sorry I kinda got that vibe initially
-
To be honest that was something anybody can guess so I wouldn't really rub it in people's faces

Care to elaborate on that? Source?

People often crap on Paramount for removing the Antique Cars in 2004 in favor of a multilaunch Premier coaster- Italian Job Stunt Track which opened the following year; but was it a bad move? Flash foward to 2019 and we still have this coaster, albiet a dethemed one. Cedar Fair continues to operate Backlot Stunt Coaster at KI, as well as at KD and CW, despite the land it sits on. Hypothetically, if Paramount kept the original Antique Cars instead of replacing it with a coaster, do you think Cedar Fair would do the same or do you think they would replace it with a coaster just like Paramount did?

Is Kings Island a Have or a Have Not Cedar Fair park?
SonofBaconator replied to BruceWayneWins's topic in Kings Island
I just finished watching his Six Flags "Discount Chain" video and it pretty much solidifies my thoughts of them choosing to be mediocre. I wonder what's the ROI they get when they divy attractions put to all of their parks every year as opposed to Cedar Fair where they dish out about 2 major attractions per year tops. -

SonofBaconator replied to BruceWayneWins's topic in Kings Island
I'm glad that he recognizes that Kings Island is the second best park in the chain on his tier list.
