Holy Comma Splice, Batman!

I'm assuming that remnants of this attraction no longer exist?

Now that's a name I haven't heard in a long, long time.

Okay, this is cool. Really jealous. Congrats. This is a helluva piece, right here!

That is horrifying

Looks like a great addition. This will definitely get to be to the park next year.

Oh bull ****. Kings Island, are you hearing this?

I personally enjoy your liquor posts. You have a lovely taste in beverage. As far as Winterfest goes... I'd love to see it again, sure. But if they don't think it's going to bring in cash/people, there's no reason for them to do it. In a perfect world, it would be a huge money maker. There are just too many factors that play into an event like this. Look at The Beach.

This. Absolutely.

Everybody read this again.

Gee, I wish my OCD was that mild. Might wanna do some research before diagnosing yourself.

The crane should be named John Stamos.

Thanks for sharing!

The problem with Winterfest '05, in my opinion, is that it seemed thrown together in attempt to make the park appear more marketable for potential buyers. I think if an actual effort was put into the event, it could work.

Congrats Don! You're a neat PR guy!

Spinoff off ride based on everyone's favorite Phantom Theatre character, yea... "Halt!"

The franchise is nothing compared to the recent aquisitions (i.e. Lucasfilm, Marvel). When Disney got quiet about the project and then announced the purchase of Lucasfilm I thought for sure that the project would be shelved, but there really isn't a place for anything Lucasfilm related (or Marvel for that matter) in the Animal Kingdom park. Going ahead with Avatar makes sense, but I think it's a risk. There are two movies stated for the future of the franchise, but to be honest I don't see them being anything earth-shattering. I didn't think the first one was anything to exciting, save the visual experience. The story has been told. What else is there to say? No doubt the expansion will nothing short of spectacular. It's just... eh, Nothing families will get excited for. Look at Universal. Harry World (that's what it's called, right?) has been the vacation destination for a lot of family and friends of mine. People love Potter. Kids love Potter. Does Avatar really have that pull? Personally, I want to see a Star Wars expansion announced. It would be ridiculous not to. I want to hug an Ewok!

I think you forgot some. Elvira's Superstition was ditched for a year and replaced by another film: "Dracula's Castle," or something of that nature. I also remember something like a "fun house" type movie being shown during HH/FF one year. Neither were anything fantastic in my opinion.

Call it 5 @ 5. Kidding. Thank you Don for doing this. Excited to get some answers!

That's what I thought. Sorry. My memories a little scattered. You can't expect me to remember my girlfriends birthday and all the original Coney Island names. Haha.

You mean the Lost River? Because I totally agree. Edit: Reffering to BB1. Terp beat me by a few seconds.

This, right here.

Enough of Halloween. I want Winterfest. There, I fixed the problem

This is single handedly the dumbest and most biased post I've ever read on this site. Let it go.

Why are people so hell bent about ripping rides out just because they're older? It's not as easy as a couple clicks on Roller Coaster Tycoon. Sheesh.
