I was in that theatre in 2011 and it is still in very good condition internally. It's a fully functioning theatre, but I could only assume it is largely disused except for corporate events (which is what I was there for). Would be great to see it either opened to guests for shows each day, or converted into a dark ride or walk through.

I think small flat rides like Batwing are exactly what Movie World needs more of. The old western area is long overdue for a redevelopment. It's entirely abandoned almost all the time, pales in comparison to the "new" western area that came with Wild West Falls and serves no real purpose. The next logical move for Movie World would be to gut this whole area and give it a new theme (Mad Max could be a really effective, seamless transition from the western area), put on a decent stunt show or major indoor ride in the arena and a well-themed flat ride outside it. The graveyard can be relocated to the hill beside Wild West Falls, which easily removes the only thing of interest in this area.

VRTP do own the land surrounding PC behind the studios and WnW - it is used (among other things) for grazing areas for the AOS animals at present. There was a suggested proposal a while back to do something with the land, but i think at the moment they're focussing on other priorities. I also don't think it's feasible for them to expand in that direction, as WWF stands directly in the way. I agree Maverick and the western town area is underutilised. Whilst I haven't heard anything, it stands to reason that (unless GL is pulled) this is the next logical expansion for the park. What they do with it I have no idea - but it's the next piece of land within the park boundary that is currently unused and stands to reason it would be the next construction... not to mention the construction would have minimal impact on guests as it is totally separate to the rest of the in-park area.

All speculation at this stage.
