How much longer for Congo Falls?
kingsislandfan1972 replied to Hawaiian Coasters 325's topic in Rumors
I agree, it would definitely fit the theming. -
I think the easiest re-theme would be The Bat turning into something Batman related, which I wouldn't mind. Perhaps the tunnel with the American Flag, can turn into The Bat Cave and Batman theme in the que, that I actually wouldn't mind, I'd say leave Banshee alone that theming is perfect. Invertigo can be turned into a Two Face (Batman) themed ride. And Delirum I can see it turning into some Green Lantern themed ride. But these are just my ideas...

I always thought it would be cool if Kings Island had a permanent small museum in the park showing the history of the park and showing former remnants of rides. Just a small one so guests can see how Kings Island has evolved over the years maybe this could be on International Street or possibly in RiverTown, but what do you all think?

How much longer for Congo Falls?
kingsislandfan1972 replied to Hawaiian Coasters 325's topic in Rumors
I like Congo Falls but if we are talking water rides at Kings Island, I'd rather be riding White Water Canyon. No I don't want them to remove CF, however I do believe a retheming is needed, for example I think they should build an indoor section on top of Congo Falls, possibly creepy theming like Banshee & The Bat. I'd even think it would be cool if they took a page out of Mystic Timbers book and had some kind of Mysterious Creature up there. A dark area would be awesome and would draw more people to the ride, they can call it "The Mystery Of Congo Falls" but hey I'm just brainstorming ideas here! -
Phantom Theater: Maestro Walk Around Character
kingsislandfan1972 replied to beastfan11's topic in Kings Island History
That is awesome! I'm assuming this was to promote the ride, sad to say it was only for one year. If The Phantom Theater ever does return in ride form, I'd hope they would bring this back! -
Kings Island General Discussion 2024
kingsislandfan1972 replied to Imperial79's topic in Kings Island
Looking forward to the 2024 season at Kings Island, I've already been hearing a lot of positive things! (I gotta get my blue ice cream soon! ) -
Wild Thornberries river adventure
kingsislandfan1972 replied to Andrewgarver's topic in Kings Island History
That snake used to scare the crap out of me as a kid. I always covered my eyes at that part also I covered my ears at the beginning of the ride when the persons voice blared over in the building. -
Making Action Zone into a creepy themed area is a good idea, heck they already have Banshee & The Bat. I'd say rename/retheme Delirum to something more Halloweenish, maybe color scheme it black & orange? Drop Tower would be fine, but maybe play some creepy music in the que like along with mist in the area. Also get retheming if Congo Falls and make it into something similar like a spooky water dark ride perhaps build around it (Disaster Transport Cedar Point). Invertigo, honestly retheme it or just get rid of it, it only runs not even half the time anyways.

"Paramount's" Name To Disappear By End of 2007
kingsislandfan1972 replied to The Interpreter's topic in Kings Island
Years later I still sometimes call Kings Island "Paramounts Kings Island" fun fact The Beast ACE Roller Coaster Landmark still says "Paramounts Kings Island". -
I think that needs an update, I've seen that before I think there is a poster for Snoopy Rocks On Ice by the Kings Island Theater which I believe would have been around 2010-2011. But very cool nonetheless very nostalgic.

I have an idea, what if this year (well way later this year or next year) what if Kings Island came up with a Christmas themed maze, like Halloween Haunt but not scary but family oriented maybe a Santa workshop in which you enter a building and walk through the North Pole encountering elves, Snowman, and of course the big man himself, Santa Clause along with Kings actors of course or a maze themed to A Christmas Carol would be a very unique idea. What do all of you think?

You might be a KI addict if you...
kingsislandfan1972 replied to Captain Nemo's topic in Kings Island
If you have memorized soundtracks of certain rides from YouTube. (Mystic Timbers, Tomb Raider, Phantom Theater, etch.) -
Surprisingly only once, now I have to lose weight to ever ride it again.

Kings Island 2024 Food Reviews and Discussion
kingsislandfan1972 replied to SmartCat7162's topic in Kings Island
A bit off-topic I believe that ice cream should be sold at WinterFest as well as the other seasons. I know its cold but I have a sweet tooth all year long especially when it comes to KIs famous Blue Ice Cream. -
I was curious with the new partnership of Cedar Fair & Six Flags if we would ever see our favorite mystery solving Great Dane return to Kings Island (and other Cedar Fair parks) in some way shape or form since it being a Six Flags property. I feel like Scooby-Doos presence was always necessary at Kings Island since being at the parks opening in 1972 through his removal in 2010, I feel like its Scoobys time to return, but what all do you think?

Coney Mall Subway Becomes Coney Mall Cocktails
kingsislandfan1972 replied to Taylor.B03's topic in Kings Island
I'm glad because anything is better than Subway! I'm happy this is replacing it! -

Oh no! Definitely not! -
Kennywood retiring Garfield's Nightmare
kingsislandfan1972 replied to malem's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Was there any fans of Garfields Nightmare? Apparently it just kept getting worse and worse every year. -
I agree those ride additions did help with that, I love Sol Spin, I just wish they would make the seats a little less uncomfortable.

My Idea The Phantom Theater Ride Returned...
kingsislandfan1972 replied to kingsislandfan1972's topic in Kings Island
It makes me wonder if Kings Island actually has a plan to replace Boo Blasters, or if they are just going to keep it until it eventually deteriorates like Garfields Nightmare at Kennywood?
