drewbari Posted February 29, 2004 Share Posted February 29, 2004 Do any of the other Paramount parks have P.T.'s? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKIVortex Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 No, PKI was the only park that had a PT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 Tell me if Im wrong but I think that all the rides installed beside The Racer before paramount bought the park havent been cloned. Im not sure though so dont quote me on that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
specialk141 Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 Zone.... your wrong... lol PKD and PKI Shared several attractions before paramount bought the parks. PKD has / had the following clones of PKI rides (not sure which park had them first in any of these examples) Shockwave (same as King Cobra) Galaxie (same as Bavarian Beetle) White Water Canyon (fairly similar to ours) Tripple Spin (same as SR&R) Flying Eagles (same as ours) Sky Pilot (same as Flight Commander) Scrambler (same as ours) i'm sure there are several more, and some of those rides are common at nearly every park in the country so they dont really count as clones, but the fact remains... rides at PKI were commonly found at PKD long before paramount bought the parks....

italianchef Posted March 2, 2004 Share Posted March 2, 2004 Phantom Theater was unique to the universe, whereas there are several Paramount and Six Flags parks with Scooby Doo rides. Hence, I STILL MISS THE PHANTOM THEATER! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted March 2, 2004 Share Posted March 2, 2004 Really I dont see the point in cloning because if you go to one park you have been to them all so paramount and six flags is scwering themselves out of money. unlike Cedar Point and knotts where they dont clone rides there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted March 3, 2004 Share Posted March 3, 2004 Really I dont see the point in cloning because if you go to one park you have been to them all so paramount and six flags is scwering themselves out of money. unlike Cedar Point and knotts where they dont clone rides there Before you go accusing PKI of screwing themselves, you have to look at the facts first. PKI is a "local" park, which means they attract local guests. Since almost all of the guests who go to PKI are from around here, it doesn't matter if they have a same ride that's in California. It's most likely that the people from here won't go to that park in California which has the same ride that PKI does. Anyway, the average guest doesn't care if a ride is cloned because it does not affect them. PKI looks at the majority and not just one whiny person who wants everything unique just for himself.

italianchef Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 Personally, I don't demand uniqueness from theme parks. I was over-joyed that I was able to ride Star Tour, Pirates of the Caribbean, and other rides in CA's Disneyland, Orlando's Magic Kingdom, and Japan's Tokyo Disney. Cloning rides offers consistency to huge fans of certain rides and attractions. And on a side note........I MISS PHANTOM THEATER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have a great day!
