AList76 Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Hi everyone!! THis site is bringing back so many memories!! I would give anything to ride Smurfs Enchanted Voyage and Skylab just one more time!! Anyway, back in 1992 when I was 16 I was actually almost on the 20th Anniversary special (my modeling agency used a bunch of kids), and I recorded it when it aired, but can't find it anywhere!!! Does anyone have this on video? I'm going to keep searching my parents basement next time I go home, but with all the random things I used to tape back then...it could take a while to locate! Also any other videos of now defunct rides would be very cool! Thanks! Ashley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Bombay Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Hey Ashley, and welcome to KICentral! To see the movie check out our history section at... http://www.KICentral.com/history/videos/20thanna.php The quality is not the best but you may be able to pick yourself out.

PKIVortex Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 He said he was almost on it. 20 years of family fun, come to join us everyone....... It's hard to believe we have already celebrated the 35th anniversary of Kings Island. Boy how time flies. Take me to The Island!!! I also have it on tape, but the sound isn't all that great anymore. Isn't it kinda funny that the last full year before Paramount it was the 20th anniversary, and the first full year after Paramount it was the 35th anniversary.

AList76 Posted January 16, 2008 Author Share Posted January 16, 2008 How bad is the sound? Really bad? I'll probably keep looking at my parents place because I know that if I still have it, it would be a pretty good copy. I can't imagine that I would have taped over it, but you never know. If I can't find it, I'll get back to ya! Yeah, that part at the beginning when there are a bunch of girls laying in their bikini's and they say "Take me to the Island!"...several of those girls were friends of mine! I remember being so mad that I didn't get to do it, but I can't remember why now. I think I had a previous engagement, like cheerleading camp or something like that. Oh well. If I find it, I will let everyone know! Ashley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PKIVortex Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 The Sound isn't horrible, you just have to turn the volume up. I wonder if they are a way to restore the sound? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( I never did catch the beginning of the show. ) I might be interested in that! At what point does your video start? It literally starts out with Jason, and the kids walking up to the "Vortex". From there, Jason playing games, and giving his advise about "girls", then it's off to "The Beast", followed by the closing of Coney Island, the opening of Kings Island, Kings Island and Miami Valley Railroad, Waterworks, it shows The Beastie somewhere in this order, and finally showing Phantom Theatre, and ending with the FireWorks at the Royal Fountain and Eiffel Tower. I would very much like to add, that all of this is in exceptional quality. And if anyone does have a good version of the 1st part of this show, which airs scenes of the Wild Animal Habitat, and the Seal or Dolphin Show, I would LOVE to have a copy of this.

PKIVortex Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 The first half also has King Cobra, Racer, and Adventure Express. It's so cool watching this now though, as it has old school KI commercials, and other interesting old commercials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AList76 Posted January 17, 2008 Author Share Posted January 17, 2008 I probably won't be back home to my parents house (they are in Lexington, I'm down in Atlanta) for another couple months, but as soon as I go I will definitely hit the basement to start the search. I had the entire show on tape and am pretty sure the quality would still be good...as long as I can find it! I'll post back if I do. Thanks!
