Dan Posted January 18, 2004 Posted January 18, 2004 ThrillResearch.com has released a brand new survey for new ride concepts at Paramount's Kings Island. The survey hints at new coaster themes of Star Trek, Mission Impossible, Tomb Raider, a few others, and especially the Italian Job and the Adam's Family. Click Here to take the survey. Remember, your vote counts! Quote
Fo-Shame Posted January 18, 2004 Posted January 18, 2004 Actually that survey was sent from Paramount Carowinds. The survey was asking what park you lived near and from then on the survey asked you questions as if they were about your park. Quote
goldeneaglecal302 Posted January 19, 2004 Posted January 19, 2004 Weird cause I got it from PKI. I live closest to PKI so I dont know? Cal Quote
Dan Posted January 19, 2004 Author Posted January 19, 2004 Actually that survey was sent from Paramount Carowinds. The survey was asking what park you lived near and from then on the survey asked you questions as if they were about your park. I think you might be mistaken because the survey I linked to is for new ride concepts, not questions about your park. The survey is very interesting so I advise you all to check it out. Quote
goldeneaglecal302 Posted January 19, 2004 Posted January 19, 2004 There are a few surveys there depending on what park you are close too. Cal Quote
Fo-Shame Posted January 19, 2004 Posted January 19, 2004 Well, at least the Survey I got was sent from Carowinds, said so in the email, said so on the website when I got there, and at the end. Though all questions where about PKI. Quote
Grunts Rock Posted January 19, 2004 Posted January 19, 2004 I think that most if not all Paramount parks have or are running similar surveys. They usually do those once a year or every 2 years. I did one for PKD a while back that was really similar to that PKI one. Quote
Captain Morgan Posted January 19, 2004 Posted January 19, 2004 I took the survey. I would hate to see the Adam's Family theme, but if PKI could pull off the Italian Job theme right, then it would be cool. I also, think that we will see something themed to Star Trek in the next few years at PKI. Quote
skatefanjeff Posted January 19, 2004 Posted January 19, 2004 Im not a big fan of The Adams Family but I think the idea of the ride adnt heme sound great. I think I would rather see this ride than the Italian Job one. Quote
Stitch Posted January 19, 2004 Posted January 19, 2004 This is what I took from the Survey, Italian Job : A Premire Water Coaster with theming. Adam's Family Reunion : (Definately) A B&M Dive Machine - look at Oblivion at Alton Towers and then read the description to this ride and it's blatently obvious lol. I would much rather have a themed B&M Dive Machine as opposed to a Italian Job Ride. Quote
Captain Picard Posted January 19, 2004 Posted January 19, 2004 I think the Survey is from Paramount Park's headquarters in Charlotte and they put a name of a park on it to make you think it's for that park. It's a park you are not close too. Quote
Express44 Posted January 19, 2004 Posted January 19, 2004 This is what I took from the Survey, Italian Job : A Premire Water Coaster with theming. Adam's Family Reunion : (Definately) A B&M Dive Machine - look at Oblivion at Alton Towers and then read the description to this ride and it's blatently obvious lol. I would much rather have a themed B&M Dive Machine as opposed to a Italian Job Ride. I could tell that the Italian Job theme would be a water coaster and that the Adam's Family theme would be a dive machine. I'd rather have the Italian Job ride because I think that an Adam's Family theme would completely kill an already over rated ride. I don;t know why PKI would go with a dive machine when there is so much better out there. Quote
Grunts Rock Posted January 19, 2004 Posted January 19, 2004 I very seriously doubt there will be a B&M dive machine put in. They are way overrated coasters and unless B&M makes some drastic changes and additions to them, don't count on seeing one. I really don't like the idea of an Adam's Family theme myself, but that's just me. The Italian Job would be cool and Paramount definitely needs to get into some water coasters. I wouldn't doubt the fact of seeing the Star Trek theme pop up at other Paramount parks after PC deciding to use it this year. Quote
Captain Picard Posted January 20, 2004 Posted January 20, 2004 We know where PKI's new ride will be and I don't see either going there except maybe Adam's Family. Last year PKD removed a ride and I think one could be going there it has the water for this in it's location unlike PKI. Quote
Screamin Demon Posted January 20, 2004 Posted January 20, 2004 I also got this email and I found it very interesting. Quote
I Love Airtime Posted January 21, 2004 Posted January 21, 2004 I don't care what the theme is. I just want a coaster! Quote
Captain Morgan Posted January 21, 2004 Posted January 21, 2004 It looks like PKI will be heading more towards theming than anything else. The park has been using the phrase "Where movie magic comes to life." With PKI saying that you know they are going to incorporate more theming into their rides. Quote
Captain Picard Posted January 21, 2004 Posted January 21, 2004 "Where movie magic comes to life." It may have to do with the new making of the movie magic show. Quote
Mr. Christopher Posted January 24, 2004 Posted January 24, 2004 Guess we'll have to wait and see. Quote
flightoffear1996 Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 Italian job ride looks kind of dumb. It looks kind of like the Earthquake ride at Universal. Quote
