PKI 2005 announcement set... enthusiasts invited!

Baby Spice:The Ride, is this thing legal?

Charlize Theron in a Mini, the ride gets really scary at the end when she goes 'Monster' on you.

I have heard this idea a few times now and wanted to know if anyone could confirm one of the ideas. One rumor states that the tiques will be removed all together. The other is that the tiques are going to be relocated behind TR:TR. Can anyone confirm one of these rumors?

The Antique Cars will not be removed from the park, but don't expect them to stay where they are.

Just remember: your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to be at PKI this thursday at 10:30 AM. ;)

I'm not that familiar with the Mission Impossible movies. Did either of them have BMW's in them? I remember the motorcycles in the second one. Hmmmm

I don's see where the MI references are coming from. The fake ticket obviously points toward IJ, and the Premier cars would make excellent Minis. I'm going to say it's in the bag.

I hate repeating myself, but, if it is the Italian Job, it will not be a Wild Mouse coaster. This will not work as a viable coaster for the description that was within the survey. I'm not an expert or have any kind of inside info, but I'd bet your right arm that it is not a wild mouse. I don't understand how anyone could have thought that it was if they read the survey. It was described as a vehicle that would take you from scene to scene and possibly down some stairs. My bet is it will be indoors at least partially. Where did this MI rumor come from? I would think that if Paramount was considering MI for a ride, it would have been in the survey somewhere, which it wasn't.

The motorcycles in MI:2 were Triumphs, Cruise on a Speed Triple and the villian on a Daytona 955. One of the Triples used in the movie was at the local dealership shortly after the movies release.

I hope it's a monorail themed to the IJ!

'tis a long thread so forgive me if someone already suggested a replacement for Spongebob Squarepants. (though I'd prefer a coaster) ;)

While searching ebay I found a shirt for the new ride. It must have been leaked out. I'm sorry but it's a clone. haha

Har, that's a fake

Yes... my post got deleated for no reason... who hoo. I bet my account is next.

Isn;t it about time that the announcement is posted on here? It's already 11, and the media thing was only supposed to be like 15-20 mins right?

Give people time to....I don't know, get home, or enjoy their day :).

Talk about something different. While it might not be the tallest, longest or fastest, I have to hand it to PKI for trying to be innovative. This thing looks like major fun and very re-rideable.

Also congrats to Jeff S and his staff for another great PR job. I wonder when that stats will be made known?

I find it very interesting that they show a graphic of riders with their hands up. Isnt that politically incorrect nowadays. Just wondering....

Man, this thing looks to be an absolute blast! Let's hope they decide to build one at PGA too. ;)

Am I correct in assuming (from looking at the wallpaper) this is going to be a hugely themed Intamin Rocket coaster?

It looks like it's the AquaTrax coaster moresof than the rocket coaster. The launch needs to be something faster to set up than a hydraulic launch of there are going to be two in the course.

The layout looks something like -- launch, upward 360* helix, drop, low s-curves, boomerang turn (like on Spider, et. al.), drop through the billboard, water splash...

...probably the second launch thereafter and the indoor section as well.

It looks fun.

Oh...I am SO looking forward to Beastbuzz next year.
