Santa, Movies, Crafts and Fireworks!

Dang, I was just about to post this myself.

I think I'll try and make it there once for this. Hopefully, Friday or Sunday for a movie, but my graduation party is Saturday, so we may end up too busy.

Now everyone can stop talking about Winterfest

Thank goodness. [emoji3]

Wish I didn't have to work weekends so I could go see the movies, but I'll probably at least make it up there one day that week (I typically go to KI once a week at the moment).

Just read about that in my e-mail a few minutes ago.  Well, that's one (completely unexpected) way to appease the bring-back-Winterfesters!

Really?

Terp -- who learns the darnest things here.

I was being sarcastic (as usual)

Christmas music playing loudly around the park. Christmas decorations 90° and wearing my ugly Christmas sweater for a front gate photo or FunPix photo on Diamondback or Beast. Imagine the possibilities [emoji319][emoji567][emoji51]

Winterfest would be a nice incentive to buy a pass for 2017. Maybe just getting warmed up in July?

I wonder if they'll do any decorations for this, or if it'll be strictly the things listed.

 

Also, was there any indication as to where the movies will be shown?

Really no indication for any of the "events." 

I wonder if they have the capability for movies in Timberwolf. It'd be good to see that area of the park used again. 

I'm going to assume most of the stuff though will be in Planet Snoopy (as far as crafts, Santa and North Pole mailing). 

Seems kind of out of the blue. Could they be "testing the waters" so to speak?

Could be, even if their not still sounds like a nice event. Wonder if they are putting up any decorations.

May seem out of the blue, but these events don't just happen. They've probably been planning it since last year at the latest.

Christmas usually means gifts, non-religiously, and we have been anticipating an announcement of some sort.. just to throw where my mind went to.

Hey welcome to the thread  

We are anticipating an announcement, would it happen on the first day of the event, July 25th (a Monday) or one of the other days of the week? 

I think if they did it, the end of the week would be better, despite the beginning being ON the 25th

If they were to announce something that week I bet it would be on the 28th, being a Thursday.

Of course, it's the week my parents and I are planning to go to KI. My parents won't be too happy about this

 

I guess as long as there isn't Christmas music throughout the park it would be fine. I could see it just being in Planet Snoopy.

 

Hopefully the announcement is announced soon so we can plan our trip around it!

Theyve got a good lineup of movies. Ive never been to a movie in KI just SC where do they have the movies in KI?

Hasn't been announced yet.

My prediction is the movies will be in the Theater...

 If I had a season pass, I wouldn't mind watching movies at KI. If I am a once a year person, no way am I spending a couple hours on movies I can see at home. Time is precious.

My prediction is the movies will be in the Theater...

Ehhhhhh..... I would hope not.... due to Urgent Scare being in one side while the other is Coney Mall's prize warehouse.

I think he was referring to the Kings Island Theater, currently home to Origins.

^LOL - I mean the theater were Origins is at

Edit - dang we posted at same time!

Years ago they showed horror type movies in that theatre during Haunt time, I believe. A nice place to watch a movie though I was incredibly scared of them and afterwards was terrified to get out of my seat and walk around!

It was also the venue for The Magic Of The Movies.

Shudder.

Magic of the Movies was the equivalent of giving a child $5 million and telling them to go away.
