Thrillsareparamount Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 When it comes to the new addams family coaster i would theme it on the first movie and call it The Ressurrection of Fester Addams. It would be similar to Hersheypark's storm runner but probabaly a bit slower and a few more inversions just so it can be a level 3 or a 4 not the wicked level 5 in thrill levels When it comes to the addams family theme tha paramont parks fairly own now... in 2006 at PCW they ssay the new 3d show at Action FX Theatre is either one of these three: The Addams Family The Core Sahara what do u think. and this idea for the coaster would be cool ...wouldnt it??

CoastersRZ Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Your wording and grammer could use a little work. Also, a coast with lots of imnversions is not generally a family ride. Granted, I would, like to see a large new coast at PKI. I think 2007 might be the year for that. I just don`t know how and when they plan on implementing the Addams family theme at PKI. I highly doubt they use the Addams Family theme for the new FX movie that will be coming to all Paramount Parks. They will use the Addams family theme for either new rides, or restaurants, like they might be doiong next season at PCW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevengeofTheSmurfs Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 I know for a fact if any paramount park got anything addams it would get me in the park.Cool Idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooby_Doo Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Iam all for it as well but I dunno what I would call it if I had the choice but wasnt the concept based on the TWO addams family paramount movies!?! If it is indeed a addams family action F/X theater movie It would make me happy of course that was on the 2004 survey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that....I dunno how they would pull off a Action F/X movie I always wondered when PKI gets the addams(if they ever do) if they would add some of the Phantom Theater Characters into the new addams darkride/coaster that would be ''an inside joke or( PKI fanboys & girls eyecandy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastersRZ Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 I was amazed to find out how much money some of the games bring in, when I volunteered in the games department Friday! Lets just say that the all time high for one day revenue from games was quite impressive (I was shocked when I heard the amount, which I am not going to reveal). I`m sure from my experience at the games, that while families fontribute a lot to game revenue, a significant portion of the revenue also comes from adults and teens playing the games. Especially teens after the basketballs (BTW, the most popular basketball was Spongebob). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screamingnight Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 50% of those games are luck. But they really cool. I love the geuss the weight one bacause they always get it wrong and I get a prize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastersRZ Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 I actually had a lot of winners at the Basketball game right across the midway from the Zephyr. More winners than I thought I would have. And in response to your earlier post, IJST is a thrill ride. And as GigglingGreenGhost said, Kings Island makes a lot of money off of families with little kids. They have an award winning children`s area, and the only way to continue to gain recognition for it, is to continue to invest in it to keep families coming back and spending money in the park. I am sure that PKI will build another roller coaster, it just might not be a major Intamin or B&M coaster. Although it would be cool if they did and they themed it like they did with IJST. But I don`t see that happening anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screamingnight Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 I know they won`t build a B&M coaster but intamin maybe. Drop Zone was built by Intamin. LIke you said it ownt be happening soon. It would be cool if it was 2006 or 2007 but I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why? Families are where the money is at, not the thrill seekers. Besides, the Addams Family coaster was designed to be a family coaster and a strata coaster is NOT a family coaster. Plus it has not yet been confirmed whether the rights to an Addams amusement ride have been confirmed. Does anyone have an article on it saying they were confirmed? Just cause its in a concept doesnt mean they were confirmed. Addams would be a cool theme, lets hope it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastersRZ Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Screamingnight, we won`t be seeing any large coaster in the 2006 season. As I`m sure you are aware, the park is introducing Nickelodeon Universe, with a couple new rides and attractions and a small family oriented roller coaster to replace Scooby`s Ghoster Coaster. The other new attraction for next season will be a new movie in the FX Theater to replace Spongebob Squarepants 3D. So don`t be looking for a major coaster or Addams Family ride next season. 2007 might be the year though, what with PKI hosting the ACE con and it being their 35th anniversary. But PKI has not been one to install an attraction just to celebrate any of their anniversaries, so who knows. I will say, it has been a long time (since Son of Beast), since they installed a roller coaster purely for the thrill seekers. Yes, IJST is a fun little ride, but as others have said, it is geared towards families. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Nemo Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 I wish Kings Island had a flying coaster. I LOVE to fly!!! How perfect would that be!!! They could theme it to Sky Captain. Back on topic. I would see an Addams Family attraction having a rating of a 3 or 4. PKI is going for the family attractions so I don't think we will be seeing any 5 star attractions anytime soon.
