familyman Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 I thought IJST was massive. What is the price tag on this sucker anyway?
Great America Guy Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 if they put in an adam's family ride will it be like a family ride or what? Wasn't the ride they used in the concept art for the Adam's family coaster a B&M Dive Machine? If so, that would ROCK!!!
flightoffear1996 Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 Yea it was a B&M diving maching which I really doubt that would be a family ride. I say a same kiddie coaster and a some kind of flat ride for the more thrilling type of people.
moore Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 Please excuse my ignorence, but whats a dive machine??? lol I've never heard of one.
Great America Guy Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 ^^Look here: http://www.rcdb.com/ig777.htm?picture=1 It's a B&M vertical drop coaster.
moore Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 OHHH! I've only heard them called verticle drop coasters. That would be really cool to have one at PKI since wouldn't be the only one in Ohio???
TheKlockster Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 Yeah it would be the first in Ohio - but not the first in the US. Busch Gardens Tampa Bay is adding SheiKra this year - which is the third Dive Machine ever built - and the tallest one in the world - with a height of 200+ feet. I still say that The Core would make a better theme than Addams Family - because Addams Family would have to be family oriented - and thus not be very big and scary. The Core could be really high and could drop you into a hole in the ground that shoots out fire and appears to be filled with lava... Id rather drop 200 feet into a pit of boiling lava than drop 50 feet into a family crypt. But Im not one to turn my nose up at any coaster - so if they did build Addams Family - I am sure I would like it anyways...
flightoffear1996 Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 I really doubt it would be for familys if it had a vertical drop. Most of these vertical drop coasters however seem to been a one trick pony.
moore Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 I really doubt it would be for familys if it had a vertical drop. Most of these vertical drop coasters however seem to been a one trick pony. I think you're probiblly right about Oblivion being a "one trick pony" b/c all it basically is is vertical drop and a loop right? Does it even loop? I think they could probiblly theme it better to the Core, but that movie is sooo old will people even remember that it was a movie? I think if they put in a dive machine, there prlly gonne theme it to the Adam's Family over the Core. Why does the Adam's Family ride have to be a family ride?
Scooby_Doo Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 It doesnt have to be a family ride the movies and comics are dark & mysterious, I see the coaster if it does happen being dark & mysterious as well I guess Paramount could make it family friendly coaster and I guess thats how those rumors about the addams family ride becoming a wild mouse coaster came to life.
KIBeast Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 And, since Sheikra is 200 plus feet, doesn't that make it a hypercoaster? Many people also speculated that Gerstlauer would be the ones to do the Addams Family vertical coaster. You can find it here...Eurofighter Just click on the pics link below the text and you can see many more shots of what that coaster can do.

I was thinking the samething B&M couldnt do it right ?I can see the addams family reunion coaster being a Gerstlauer Dive Machine it just makes more sense to me.
moore Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 I really hope it wont be a wild mouse ride b/c they just look really dumb...I think the Eurofighter coaster looks more like a fair ride to me....
Scooby_Doo Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 If it does turn out to be a wild mouse then it would most likely be like Scooby's Spooky Coaster in Australia at WB movie world or Exterminator at Kennywood here are some pics of Scoobys spooky coaster to get the concept Click here But more likely it will turn out to be a Eurofighter..I hope it does happen!
moore Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 I think they should tear down SDHC and put a mouse ride like that there and theme it to Scooby. I would probibly nvr ride it but I may if the lines aren't long.
Scooby_Doo Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 Riight SDATHC isnt going anywhere besides its new and way too popular,besides PKI needs something like the addams a nice coaster/dark ride.
tubaman Posted March 26, 2005 Posted March 26, 2005 I just found this thing. It's call a Screamin' Squirrel. Here's the link http://www.thrillnetwork.com/stories_view.php/6 I think it looks cool and wouldn't take up a lot of space, so more rides wouldn't have to be taken out .
Gordon Bombay Posted March 26, 2005 Posted March 26, 2005 That thing looks very ugly but it looks liek a lot of fun to ride with the hangtime it has. It would be cool if KI made the Adams coaster with something like this where you would hang upside down like that for a long time.
PKIFan4Life Posted March 26, 2005 Posted March 26, 2005 Screamin' Squirrel is one of those rides that I thing just doesn't look that fun. That's me though, you can't judge a book by it's cover.
jlopez Posted March 26, 2005 Posted March 26, 2005 I think they should add a new water ride for 06, something really major. Since they have taken out the log Flume and the other one to put Tomb Raider in.
Gordon Bombay Posted March 26, 2005 Posted March 26, 2005 WE still have one log flume, white water canyon, congo falls, a water maze, and a major water park
jlopez Posted March 26, 2005 Posted March 26, 2005 Yeah, True, True. But The Wild Thorberrys Log Flume is cool and all. But I liked it Better before. So WWC and CF is the only Adult water rides. I just think it would be neat if they put a really major water ride in. Something out of the ordinary. Jennifer
RingMaster Posted March 29, 2005 Posted March 29, 2005 you mean like a water coaster? that could work. knowing PKI, we could have a themed water coaster like sea world's Journey to Atlantis. maybe base it off of Titanic or something. they had some ideas for a titanic-themed walkthrough in the survey a while back.

PKIFan4Life Posted March 29, 2005 Posted March 29, 2005 A titanic ride would be TERRIBLE. I could see a Sponge Bob Square Pants water coaster, I think it would work well.
Scooby_Doo Posted March 29, 2005 Posted March 29, 2005 I wonder where PKI would add such a ride and what rides would be removed!
jlopez Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 I think they should add another coaster to nick central, or some flats. and also add a coaster to Action Zone.
Guest faceoff Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 Jennifer I am not sure what other type of water ride they could put in. I believe they have all types now. I would not mind seeing a intamin impulse coaster or coaster similar to the dragster. I believe s&s makes this rollercoaster also besides intamin. I am not sure where mississinawa valley is-but i will say go blackhawks!!!!!.
KIBeast Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 I don't think you will see an Intamin impulse at PKI. Face/Off is way too similar a ride. As far as I know, S&S does not have a coaster like Dragster. They do have two launched coasters in existence, though. Like hypersonic xlc and Dodonpa, located in Japan.
King Bowser Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 I hope a titanic attraction never happens in PKI the movie is overrated as is,now a spongebob ride I wouldnt mind but titanic noway.
