I like to use hyperbole a lot. You'll get used to it.

I doubt it.

Terp, pragmatic realist.

From dictionary.com:

pros·e·cute
[pros-i-kyoot] Show IPA verb, pros·e·cut·ed, pros·e·cut·ing.
verb (used with object)
1.
Law.
a.
to institute legal proceedings against (a person).
b.
to seek to enforce or obtain by legal process.
c.
to conduct criminal proceedings in court against.

The term prosecute is not just criminal. It can be used in a general legal sense also.

Cedar Fair filed for trademark protection for the words "Amusement Dark" in March I believe!

If the name is "Amusement Dark", then someone in the planning department has a severe lack of creativity.

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.

I'm still of the camp that believes the "Amusement Dark" trademark is for marketing purposes for the Haunt.

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).

They will not remove the arcade. That is a very historic building that serves multiple uses for the park.

The coliseum is also one of the oldest buildings on the peninsula, with a great deal of history inside of it.

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.

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.

CP is getting a Houdini.

Nothing new or revolutionary about that.

Check out this post. This is where I first saw that Ouimet mentioned an interactive, revolutionary dark ride.

Even though this isn't a dark ride, I would love a Soarin' type ride at Cedar Point.

I'd consider that a dark ride.

Anyone know how much Soarin' cost?

Anyone ever get to ride chaos at opryland?

Yes, someone did.

Diamondback96, who just could not resist!

Well that's kind of dumb. You have to be 18+ to get on that page. :/

Really? Hmm. I didn't really think any of the entries were all that great.

Yes, someone did.

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.
