^KI's Don Helbig dropped a hint that The Beast line may be receiving a face lift for 2009 when he informed Ryan (Boddah1994) to let users know to bring their cameras and get photographs of The Beast entrance before the season was over.

Personally I'd rather not see any snake exhibits or snake skin in the queue line. . . . I HATE SNAKES.

You should have seen the snake over at coney maul the first haunt weekend!!

Personally, I am upset with the trees being destroyed, but I understand things must change. I just hope they are replaced elsewhere in the park.

Have a look here. If you look closely, you'll be able to tell that some trees will be making a return visit to The Beast's plaza area.

After visiting the park on the 1st, I could see KI getting rid of the "Beast Canyon" entrance, and placing a new entrance very near to the ORP stand. It seems very logical to me to redo it that way.

I wish they'd get rid of The Beast Canyon buildings, those things look so ugly.

.....you're riding a coaster themed to the Diamondback RattleSNAKE. The coaster train is themed to a giant SNAKE. You're, in essence, riding a giant SNAKE.

Just to help you with your hatred of snakes, Indy.

Oh I am quite sure that they will be replaced......with concrete.

Well, look for the trees and pavement in the final helix area of Diamondback to become a grass filled area, and not concrete.

Here you go. Hope this one works.***EDIT

That didn't work either. Just watch the off ride animation atDiamondback's site and when it hits the final helix, you'll be able to tell.

And what you will be able to tell is an artist's conception. Nothing more....

And what you will be able to tell is an artist's conception. Nothing more....

True, but so far we've seen the "artist's conception" for the rest of the ride, and that has been fairly accurate, no?

Yes, but....the theming areas around a ride and how it is landscaped are often the least accurate portions of any artist conception. Accurate at the time, yes....but these are the places that often suffer when what seems to be the almost inevitable budget overruns or funding shortages hit....

Point taken. Time will tell what will happen or not happen.

Here's my nomination for one of the Songs in D-Back's Que:

^No....all I have to say is just no....

i'm with rcfreak339

Whatever happened to an honest joke anymore?

techno and western hybrid

I think "Mustang Sally" just to provide as a inside joke with the whole Mustang speculation!

"Ride Sally Ride!"

^^What's funny, is my prediction is NO music!!

Yes, Behemoth has none, but also consider...Firehawk has no music, and most everything else that does at KI is by virtue of former owner's TV's...

The fact still remains that CP is CP (with all of their queue music), and things like simple queues, splashdown landscaping that does NOT compete with Busch, and no queue music are easy things to save nickles and sustain budgets...

^

I wont argue about most of that, but the Busch splashdown landscaping is fifty fifty. SheiKra is very nice with the rock work, but Griffon is nothing more than a pool with a walkway next to it.

I hope we see something similar to SheiKra, but Im not complaining either way.

^ All we can do is hope. The construction blog says they want the Splashdown to look like the renderings.

I`m fairly certain that Cedar Fair installed speakers in Firehawk`s queue to play music.

And many of the queue TVs have begun to disappear.

I really hope Diamondback doesn't have "Skyline Vision."

I know Firehawk has music I remember hearing music while waiting for like 45 min.

Music? You call THAT music?

Crotchety Terpy, who just HAD to (and who reminds all it's Chili Vision, not Skyline Vision)

Does anybody remember that video about the cats and they would sing that song that went like "shockacon" extreemly weird

You mean...this? http://www.webratsmusic.com/video-22250-ch...tties-promo.php

haha

This video along with the other kitten music videos played on the queue TVs were actually VH1 promos created by the folks of rathergood.com They also created a few spots for Quiznos:

That Quizno's ad will haunt me. That was weird.
