King Bowser Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 If you could only pick one MAIN nick attraction for the Nick Expansion what would you choose? Nickelodeon Car Wash: At the Nick Car Wash, all of your favorite characters are on hand to get you, sopping wet-each in their own special way! Riders explore a series of indoor/outdoor scenes, each featuring a different Nick character in a wacky cartoon car wash. And this car wash is interactive, allowing riders to control their own speed through the scenes. Sponge Bob Square pants: Crash Course Boating School: Climb aboard a boatmobile with Spongebob Squarepants at the wheel, and you're in for a completely wacky ride! The rip-roaring indoor family coaster ride will put guests on a twisting, turning, underwater crash course with all of the creatures of Bikini Bottom! With Spongebob behind the wheel, surprises are sure to be around every corner, as guests whiz through a cartoon environment full of spectacular sights, silly sounds, and crazy "underwater" special effects! Buckle up and take the wheel with everyone's favorite sponge at Mrs. Puff's Driving School for a wild, wet, and whacked-out underwater adventure with SpongeBob and Friends!

italianchef Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 I voted for the Nickelodeon Carwash because I'd like to see several characters, not just SpongeBob. Have a great day! Italian Chef Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scooby_Doo Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 I pick spongebob because kid would like it more plus dads and moms could ride with their young ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 I picked Sponge Bob because I don't want to get wet Other than that I agree with italianchef. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckeye-Beast Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 It would be cool if the Nick carwash turned out to be like Roller Soaker at Hershey Park, I would love to have one of those if we aren't getting a big coaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKIVortex Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 I think both of these ideas sound pretty cool. I'm sure will we find out soon enough though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skippy that spongebob coaster will get you somewhat wet I know it would have mist sprayers and bubbles...

RingMaster Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 It would be cool if the Nick carwash turned out to be like Roller Soaker at Hershey Park, I would love to have one of those if we aren't getting a big coaster. It really would make a lot of sense to have the Carwash in the form of a Roller Soaker; I don't think there's any more room in HB/Nick Central to put another big flat/dark ride if SpongeBob is put where the Nick Theater is. Still, if the Carwash is a Roller Soaker, then the Water Maze and Scooby's Ghoster Coaster would have to go. That's the only real spot for it to fit. Oh, yeah, I voted for SpongeBob 'cause indoor/outdoor/dark ride/coasters are my thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Bowser Posted August 18, 2005 Author Share Posted August 18, 2005 -Save the Seals!- Dude whats your prob! I know scooby(aka Duke) very well and that smarta$$ remark is just wack and mean! I'm also a fan of darkrides and I for one dont think SDATHC is cheap its just fun I like it more than buzz lightyear which way is too kiddy for my tastes. And I doubt we get a rollersoaker it would be outta place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoddaH1994 Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 I'd choose the indoor Spongebob thing. Think of it this way: We'll know the route of PKI after this attraction. Either they'll put in a world-class heavily themed ride that can be enjoyed by all and take another step forward in their goal of being the Disney of the midwest, or they'll put in something lame that has the awe factor of SDATHC and take a great leap backwards. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoddaH1994 Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 I agree with you BoddaH but dont understand why so many people on this board dis-like the haunted castle.... It's not so much that I don't like SDATHC, it's just that I think that it could have been done a lot better. The concept is great, having people shoot targets and the themeing reacts, but it's just not all there. There is just something to having those 3D animatronics that makes the experience so special. It's not like they had the wrong company do it... I mean, some of the stuff in the ride is fantastic (like the pipe organ player). I really think that PKI is to the point now where they are ready to do something great... we'll just have to wait and see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIBeast Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 While something like the rollersoaker might seem cool, it has terrible capacity. Oh wait, a lot of rides at PKI have low capacity, it should fit right in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
italianchef Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 There's nothing wrong with SDATHC - but it lacks the charm, originality, and Disney-like atmosphere of Phantom Theater. I think PKI should build a new, bigger, and better PHANTOM THEATER somewhere else in the park with the old - and some new characters, the old music, and the old charm. Have a great day!

Gordon Bombay Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 The moving carboard charecters can in no way compare to the animatronic charecters PT had. SDATHC is neat with the laser guns, but the theming is cheap and tacky. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOF/Z 4-ever Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Why not have a huge haunted house/castle type attraction where you get to walk around trying to find your way thur. It would be kid friendly and be loads of fun. Should include house of mirrors and such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDMC01 Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 I know Paramount no longer owns KI, but I'd have voted for the Spongebob coaster. I'd heard rumors about it back in the day, and I think it would be cool. If built today, it could have utilized drop track like Thirteen or Verbolten. but then again, Spongebob's gone downhill since then, so maybe not. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark6495 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Yes it may have gone down hill but if it had been built at the time it would be 10byears later. Crazy! One of the positives and negatives of having a kid themed area to a dog that doesn't really have a current series (never saw the movie and honestly haven't seen it on sale prominently for home viewing). No current series to bring the over all value down but no current series to make kids and parents relate to it either.

jcgoble3 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 (never saw the movie and honestly haven't seen it on sale prominently for home viewing) Same here. I just Googled it and discovered that it was released on DVD and Blu-ray last Tuesday, which I had heard nothing about. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also he is a playable character in the Disney video games and more recent movies/tv specials. "It's the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, come inside it's fun in side.m I c k e y m o u s e... Roll call..."

I've ridden SpongeBob "Rock Bottom Plunge" at Mall Of America, its actually a pretty good coaster. I rode it in 2013 I believe, there wasn't much of a line but it was actually a pretty decent ride. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westcoaster Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Car wash,, could still be done w peanuts and electric vehicles it would be even better with a Roger rabbit style dark ride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph88 Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 SpongeBob's Rock Bottom Plunge is a pretty fun coaster! (I think it's the only Gerstlauer I've ever been on, IIRC.) Tak Attack was the weirdest ride I have ever experienced. But very cool. *looks at Wikipedia* Awww it's gone now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
