  1. I was at DisneyWorld the week of Christmas in 2008 with my family. My little brother had a Mickey Mouse costume on with ears that squeak , and when he saw Mickey Mouse,Mickey Mouse squeaked his ears, and my brother ran away from him. Christmas at DisneyWorld was an awesome experience, especially when we went to Planet Hollywood at DownTown Disney, then we went to that huge arcade I think was called Kids Quest, which if you rode the elevator, you have seen the effects of the Genie from Aladdin, actually in the elevator with you. Christmas at DisneyWorld was a memory that will be with me always.
  2. 2015 is going to be a great year at Kings Island, I can already feel it!
  3. I like the WindSeeker music because it's always different and sometimes they play Ric Flairs Theme Song, even though sometimes it's cold to go on the WindSeeker at night, I recommend it because it plays music, and the lights on the ride are absolutely fantastic.
  4. I think I've mentioned that before on a different topic, and they should play that when you are waiting in line, or better yet, it should be played when you are on the ride.
  5. 2015 at Kings Island will make history with the epic return of Shake, Rattle, and Roll, I'm so excited!
  6. When I was younger I got a huge thrill when Woodstock Express was The Beastie. I also remember that I used to close my eyes in the tunnel after the first drop, man those were the days.
  7. The most memorable Topic on here to me will always be about The Bat returning to Kings Island.
  8. Im very interested, this will definitly help me with my collection for Kings Island maps but I basically collect Kings Island related.
  9. When I was little, Tim Curry made clowns a living nightmare for me. (A.k.a. IT!) But now its one of my favorite classic horror movies.
  10. When you need Mr. Plow to plow your driveway.
  11. I hope tht in the future, The Racer will go backwards once again, or at least for one year.
  12. Who else agrees that when Shake, Rattle, and Roll returns, that the song Shake, Rattle, and Roll by Joe Turner should be played?
  13. I agree. With what they have been doing at the other parks I think a 2016 Soak City expansion is the ost likely, and one fo teh most needed, things at the park. It defitnely seems too soon after Banshee for a major investment like a Trioech coaster/dark ride. I could potentially see that getting built for 2017 and think either the oldy Crypt building or the Action Theater are the most likely spots as they are large buildings ready to go. Action Theater would be good for a flat dark ride and Crypt for one like Wonder Mountain's Guardian. I don't see what the butcher would hae against that spot though as it does not interfere with any butcher shops in the area. Think 2019 would be a better year for a new wooden coaser if they did one though as this would be both the 40th Anniversary of The Beast and the 10th Anniversary fo SoB's closing. Perfect time to revive Son of Beast in some fashion. Maybe a custom RMC type hybrid coaster for it's rebirth. Also I agree with upstop that a extaTERRORestrial Alein Encounter type attraction would be perfect in X-Base. Add that, an extreme flat ride like a Sledgehammer or Screamin' Swing, bathrooms and a food stand woudl round out that section nicely and make it a great full area unto itself. I would like to see another alien type attraction in X-Base, a attraction like ExtraTerrorestrial Alien Encounter would work out perfectly at Kings Island. For Dinosaurs Alive I would like to see in the future, a Dinosaur themed ride, to go along in that area, is Action Theater still open? Also bigger bathroom expansions would be nice, preferably on International Street.
  14. My favorite part of Soak City is the big wave pool, im not a real big fan of slides, but I am a fan of the Lazy River, because when Im in the Lazy River, I do what im best at, being lazy!
  15. That is an excellent idea, because if that happend then I would definitly apply at Kings Island, ever since I was little I have wished to work there. This should definitly happen.
  16. A memory of Kings Island a few years ago, a man was using his phone on the bridge on Congo Falls, I guess he didnt know that he could get wet while on the bridge, but it happend, and his phone got ruined and he was cursing up a storm. I never really noticed, but is there a warning sign about getting wet on the bridge? The best warning sign at Kings Island is definitly http://northeastohiofamilyfun.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/White-Water-Canyon-Kings-Island.jpg I like Congo Falls, but im more of a White Water Canyon kind of guy.
  17. When you play a saxaphone for your Off-Season Blues.
  18. 1. Mr. Toad's Wild Ride (MK WDW. Curse you Pooh!) 2. ExtraTerrorestrial )MK WDW-but only in its original, far more intense incarnation, before Eisner ordered it toned down bc the kiddos were leaving the ride in tears) 3. Funtastic World of HB (Universal Orlando; briefly KI; zippy, trippy fun!) 4. Jaws (Universal Orlando-in its halcyon days before it fell into disrepair) 5. Snow White's Scary Adventures (MK WDW-i'm excited to ride the new mine train in a couple months, but this was a rare Fantasyland ride which clearly warned young ones that it was intense..and it was! the evil Queen popping up in unexpected places!) Honorable Mention- Body Wars (Epcot). One of the first great motion simulator rides. Re-imagine the Wonders of Life! (even if its to something like Big Hero 6. Let's face it-Epcot has slowly given up the ghost of Walt's original intent over the years, so why not just continue the trend? A good D or E ticket ride in there would be great!) Honorable Mention 2-Horizons (Epcot) mmmmmm oranges! When my family and I went to DisneyWorld, when we went and rode Stiches Great Escape, kids were crying on that too, its a ride based ona cartoon, but I can see why kids were scared on it when we rode. I watched videos of ExtraTerrorestrial and I can really understand why kids cried on the ride, I would love to go back in time to ride it, great technology!
  19. I want to go to Halloween at Knotts Scary Farm, it looks totally insane.
  20. But what if I read the title of this topic between April 18th and November 1 this year? I guess I had'nt thought of that, lol.
  21. I miss the Paramount days at Kings Island, it was just great time filled movie based rides and attractions. The current Cedar Fair days are pretty intense, with new rollercoasters, great food selections, and one wicked water park. These days may be good, but i'm excited what the future Kings Island has in store for us. I've been a Kings Island fan since birth.
  22. When you read the title of this topic.
  23. If you could go back in time to any amusement parks and pick 5 former rides or attractions what would you pick? Please include both ride and park 1. Nickelodeon Studios (Universal Studios Orlando) 2. King Cobra ( Kings Island) (I was too little to ride it, but it looked intense!) 3. Sounds Dangerous! Starring Drew Carrey (Epcot, DisneyWorld) 4. Phantom Theater (Kings Island) 5. Scooby Doo and the Spooky Swamp ( Six Flags, St. Louis) (My family was planning a there last year but we ended up going to The Mall of America, if I would of known it was the last year of operation for the ride, then I would of convinced my parents to go there instead.)
  24. White Water Canyon, my favorite water ride, it beats every water ride in Soak City.
