PyroKinesis Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 I like to use hyperbole a lot. You'll get used to it. Quote
The Interpreter Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 I doubt it. Terp, pragmatic realist. 4 Quote

outlawbud Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 Cedar Fair filed for trademark protection for the words "Amusement Dark" in March I believe! 1 Quote
PyroKinesis Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 If the name is "Amusement Dark", then someone in the planning department has a severe lack of creativity. 5 Quote
House Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 I'd be really sad if they put a dark ride in the Midway Arcade. I always enjoy going in there and checking out the old arcade games. 1 Quote
RingMaster Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 I'm still of the camp that believes the "Amusement Dark" trademark is for marketing purposes for the Haunt. 3 Quote
dwitb Posted August 5, 2013 Author Posted August 5, 2013 Is it possible that the arcade my be removed for a new coaster? Execs have said that they want to open to beach up to the park (how they did with Gatekeeper). Quote
Maverick00 Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 They will not remove the arcade. That is a very historic building that serves multiple uses for the park. Quote
PhantomTheater Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 The coliseum is also one of the oldest buildings on the peninsula, with a great deal of history inside of it. Quote
RollerNut Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Hmm, Planet Snoopy one side, Kiddy Kingdom on the other and a dark ride doesnt have to take up the whole floor. Boo Blasters at Carowinds' building measures about 89'x75' wheres the Colisuem measures 148'x 309' according to Google Maps. Thats 6, 675 sq feet compared to 45,732. Quote
Ride On_17 Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 Ok, here's just a thought. What if this dark ride will be a Vekoma Pandora's Box? http://www.vekoma.com/index.php/specialities-and-attractions/pandora-s-box Ouimet said the dark ride would be interactive and would set a new industry standard. Well, I don't believe a Pandora's Box has ever been built before, so if CP builds one, it technically would set a new standard since it would be the 1st ride of its kind. Plus it might not be interactive in a shooting style way, but more of a flying into different scenes type interaction. This concept really intrigues me, and it fits all that we've heard so far. Plus this thing needs a decent amount of space, and after all there are rumors that our dark ride will go in the colisseum... Just a little food for thought, but to me a Pandora's Box would be a perfect choice for a dark ride, and I think it fits everything we've heard about the ride so far. 1 Quote
The Interpreter Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 Nothing new or revolutionary about that. 3 Quote
Ride On_17 Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 Check out this post. This is where I first saw that Ouimet mentioned an interactive, revolutionary dark ride. http://pointbuzz.com/Forums/Thread/29830.aspx?page=11#496891 Quote
KI FANATIC 37 Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 Even though this isn't a dark ride, I would love a Soarin' type ride at Cedar Point. 4 Quote
Ride On_17 Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 I'd consider that a dark ride. Anyone know how much Soarin' cost? 1 Quote

Creed Bratton Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 Really? Hmm. I didn't really think any of the entries were all that great. Quote

YoungStud Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 Yeah, everytime i say something joking everybody hits the report button Quote
Colonel_SoB_fan Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 I don't know exactly how much soarin cost but I know most rollercoasters cost less. I have heard everything from 50 million to 125 million. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Tapatalk 4 Quote
