Creed Bratton Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Hahaha Don! Bleeeeeeeeeeeeep! I will be on the road on the 18th to Washington, D.C. someone better fill me in!
74Gibson Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 I've talked with Don enough to know he's arnry (so?). I bet he loves teasing us like this.
dr_humor Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Well if it's for this year, I can't see what else it would be other than a dino-walkthrough. That would be fairly easy to set up. Weird.
Guest PizzaBaby027 Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 So I went back through KI's facebook page and I noticed the paw print in the snow, the line for the national red day thing, then I saw the people examining a blue print which fit perfect to the photo they made for national red day and it all fits, this will be a maze of some sort through the woods on either a cart that goes crazy fast or on a train or by foot of a Jurassic type situation. I also have talked to Don, way more than I ever should have anyway he never seems angry, he is always so mysteries and quite. He is a great guy who really loves the park!
dr_humor Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 The only thing that goes against a dino-wlkthrough type ordeal is the phrase "turn the clock back on thrill" A dino-walkthough is not thrilling, it's for 8-year-olds. Granted, it would be great for the kids, but certainly not a "thrill".
KILateNighter Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Turn the Clock back on thrill could possibly mean SOB? Considering the teaser background looks like wood
Ogrmac Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 I am surprised no one has mentioned the teaser photo of the trees that are flagged for... something. Removal, perhaps?
KILateNighter Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 I am surprised no one has mentioned the teaser photo of the trees that are flagged for... something. Removal, perhaps? What trees?
Ogrmac Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 I am surprised no one has mentioned the teaser photo of the trees that are flagged for... something. Removal, perhaps? What trees? Above the teaser video, there is a tab titled "Photos" that you can click on. Those trees.
Guest PizzaBaby027 Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Well I know this prob ain't it but back when they first started building the park they color coded the tree's, some meant don't tear down some meant ok do it and some bans meant if you do your fired!! idk

Beast1979 Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 This is great! For one, I thought the video was extremely hilarious. "This year at Kings Island, *blleeeeeeppp!*". I applaud Kings Island for their continued jabs at the Enthusiast community, they seem to know what makes us tick and they're outrageous when they poke fun at us. Secondly, I also applaud Kings Island at their marketing for this so far. Beginning with the footprint in the snow, which we all thought was meaningless at the time, then the National Red Day drawing, the famous "Planning" picture, now this. I have to say, they did a fantastic job teasing this one, whatever it may be. As for my predictions on the attraction itself, that's a tough one. This is a very interesting situation they've made, and really unique. Marketing a big new attraction in the dead of the offseason, to arrive in the upcoming year, when all the buzz is about a ride already being built to open the same year? I'm clueless, to be honest. I could see this being anything from a walk-through attraction to a small roller coaster. Seriously. I'm stumped. But man, this is very exciting! Can't wait until the 18th!
trevor75 Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 I also have talked to Don, way more than I ever should have anyway he never seems angry, he is always so mysteries and quite. He is a great guy who really loves the park! I believe he was saying Don is ornery not angry.
HTCO Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Did anyone happen to look at the photo posted? It's a bunch of trees with pink markers on them similar to those on the trees of Diamondback back during construction.
UnrealNightmare Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 And the Banner where it says turn back the clock on thrill looks a lot like dinosaur skin. My guess is it's going to be the worlds longest dino walk through.
74Gibson Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 I have only seen Don look angry once. No time to search for the pic but it was the promo for DB when he was mock beating a co-worker with a bolt for DB. I think he could be bad ass if needed. Ornery was the word. Spelling was the problem. Defamation of character was the misinterpretation. Trevor's got my back:)
74Gibson Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Just trying to get my post count up cuz that means I'm cooler (sarcasm, sorry for the double post).
Shaggy Posted March 11, 2011 Author Posted March 11, 2011 Now see, everyone was second guessing me about seeing the banner the other day.... I told you so... ;-) 1
trevor75 Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Instead of a Dino walk how about something a long the lines of this: http://parkthoughts.com/2010/02/04/dinosaurs-meet-motor-bikes/
rotag Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 who wouldnt want to ride a giant chicken that bounces up & down... ...its a new carousel, finally my merry-go-square. on a serious note, maybe:
LongLiveTheSmurfRide Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 The marked trees just adds to the questions. Are they for removal? If so, was the picture taken today? If so, this thing doesn't seem like a 2011 attraction.
KIfan1980 Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 All I got to say is that I think that video was very well played. Here's an idea - announce a 2012 ride now and then offer a special 2 year season pass this spring.
Braves0511 Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 The song in that video is permanently embedded in my psyche after only 32 seconds...
bluerag504 Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 I believe they could be bringing back one of the ld roller coasters with a new look, because it says: "Turn back the clock on thrill" Hmmmmmmm! very interesting.
jcgoble3 Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 In the video, he says "world's largest" something twice. I wonder what that's referring to?
bluerag504 Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 I believe they culd be bringing back one of the old roller coasters but with a new look
Beast1979 Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 In case anybody cares.... Anyone have any idea what the background with the grassy meadow at dusk may mean?
KILateNighter Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 We still need to remember that this was the day KI annonced SOB closure a year ago
74Gibson Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 ^ "Turn back the clock on thrill" certainly fits that idea.
