lil lynn Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 I worked at KI waayy back in the late 80's early 90's and I remember that building back in the back to the left of The Vortex exit/entrance was a movie theatre. Now I am wondering what is it used for? IT is next to that pay as you go Trampoline thing for kids, or to the right of where Flight Cammandor was located. They need to take it out if they aren't using it, it is an eyesore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dane Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 The building was called Cinema 180 and was used for laser tag. It is now currently used for storage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guy1115 Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 That building is an eyesore, and has been under the "destroy" order many times, however something always seems to save it. The last time I heard they were talking about using it as a small maze for haunt, but then they bought the new big building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IheartKI Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 I remember going to that little theater. We sat on the floor, and then there was like a roller coaster movie that you watched. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 The original Cinema 180 theater was an air supported rubber structure. It is long since gone... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BavarianBeatle Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 That area is an eyesore. I've said that on these boards many times..... It's one of my few pet peaves about the park. Especially with the Red Racer running forward, the view of that area is awful, in my opinion..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markr Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 I remember going to Cinema 180 in 1987,the day of my first ride on Vortex. It had movies in 3-D and you sat on the floor. One of the movies was of Vortex. I remember coming close to being very sick as I had just eaten and didn't realize there would be a lot of simulated motion. Luckily my friend with whom I went that day was a doctor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iChase Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 That area really is awful. For such a nice area of the park, it sure looks bad. That area could really be used for something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
