QUOTE (CedarPointer @ Nov 7 2009, 11:13 AM)  KI should get one, considering we are getting a downgraded kids area and no new attraction, but apparently we aren't. Downgraded kids areas still cost nickels, you know. And if CF sells its parks, KI will be sold after many of the others. |

QUOTE (KI Kevin @ Nov 7 2009, 09:48 AM) And if CF sells its parks, KI will be sold after many of the others. Agreed! Kings Island was Paramount's flagship, and now is arguably "second in command." We'd likely see a sale of all the other former Paramount Parks (perhaps save only Kings Dominion) before Kings Island were to go. But that would open a whole new can of worms... If Kings Dominion were sold, would one of the parks have to de-alienize their Flight of Fear? Rename International Street? Retheme The Crypt? The parks are a bit too eerily similar to be separated from each other. I suppose that can be said of all of the Paramount Parks, though. |

Unless CF installs theming equal to or better than Paramount's theming (which I doubt will happen), I would certainly call it a downgrade. But that's a discussion for another thread.

Getting rid of Hanna Barbera for Nick was a downgrade. Getting rid of Nick for Snoopy is an upgrade.
 Would you rather have this:  Or.....this.....

Ugh. I got that pic off of Photobucket, their bandwith must have reached it's limit. It was your Avatar anyhow.
