Gordon Bombay Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 What do you guys think couldve been a better them for the IJST? I personally wouldve loved to have seen it themed to the James Bond Movies. I think that would just be spectacular and would be the best choice for a theme but, I dont know if Paramount owns the rights to it anymore to use it as a theme. Another one that seemed likely would be Mission Impossible. That would be pretty cool. The Italian Job theming is cool too. What do you guys think?

Jasper Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 I would have like 007 better than MIP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hauntguy Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 I can't wait to see if PKI dress it up for Fearfest!!! Like some decaying, rotting cops next to and on top of the police cars... erosion cloth hanging off of the parking garage... fog and strobe in the subway stairs... some groaning and monster noises in the "tunnel" after the mid-ride show... make the tunnel pitch black (if it isn't already)... POSSIBLE THEME: You are the last survivors in the zombie ran town... you must board your own mini-cooper and out run the zombies and monsters that are trying to get you! Can you out run the dead? Can you stare death in the face and laugh? You ride awaits you... Sorry, I do this for a living! But it would be cool if the park did something like this.. add that extra "coolness" to a already great ride. -Hauntguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact with the helicopter and police cruisers already in place, all you would have to do is add some zombies, and a large "Nemesis," and you have Resident Evil: Apocolypse.

hauntguy Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 Exactly... PKI could have the first "multi-themed" roller coaster!!! -Hauntguy PS: That was a great movie! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
familyman Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 Exactly... PKI could have the first "multi-themed" roller coaster!!! -Hauntguy PS: That was a great movie! I am with you on that one. And the best thing with this coaster is it's all close to the ground. You would still be able to see everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Bombay Posted March 7, 2005 Author Share Posted March 7, 2005 Hauntguy! that is an awesome idea!! That owuld be so cool if they actually did that for fearfest, but i dont think it would be cool all year round because it wouldnt be fearful during the day. But that is an excellent idea!

UncleHenry Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 I really like the Fear Fest idea for it. I think it would work out! I mean, they made Tiques a haunted ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hauntguy Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 It could be like "Route 666" on steroids... I loved that attraction, RIP!!! CombatStupendous89, Your right, it should only be fearful during Fearfest... Thanks for the comments guys, it's reassuring to me to know that some of my ideas are still good..LOL!! I also have another idea: For fearfest, they could change out the license plates on the ride vehicles... if they have them and IF they are interchangable. They could do some really cool stuff like: "SCARE ME" "LSTRD-666" "NGHTMRE" I think that would be cool... just an idea. -Hauntguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 I never rode route 666 cause of that thing called a line. I never saw it under 2 hours until they closed the line off. That is just crazy since the line goes so slow. I wonder if they will add a new Fear Fest thing since they did lose one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarketingExpress Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 Nothing Italian Job could only be themed to the movie ...Hence the name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dxrunner Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 The fearfest thing sounds pretty cool actually, but i cant see IJST being themed to any thing else, like dan said, thats why it is what it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hauntguy Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 PKI would have to change the total theme of the ride... leaving props and specail effects... but changing the name and the outside graphics/logos/etc. PKI could do it... just takes some creativity! They could event do it under $500!!! I could... -Hauntguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HomerJay Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 Well, the thing is that if the rumors ever do come true about Paramount selling the park, they would have to make some changes to theming. You'd probably see it rethemed to some generic heist idea. As for Paramount movies that it could have been rethemed to, it would have been cool to have--instead of parking garages and stuff--cabins and trees and stuff and make it a Friday the 13th ride, where you're escaping from Jason. I still think a M:I ride would be sweet, and that would be a good theme. . . although IJ was known for it's incredible chase scene. Although my dream ride (just dreaming, I know it would never happen). You could retheme it to be a ride themed to the BEST road trip movie that Paramount ever made. TOMMY BOY!!! Can you imagine it? A deer pops out of nowhere, they could have a trunk fly up and block your view before you spin out of control, and then they stop you right in front of the prehistoric forest. But then again, Tommy Boy takes place in Sandusky, so maybe it's more of a Cedar Point idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
