  1. Theres actually 5 scenes cut from the High Country Legends show, 2 entire characters/leads and several other sections shortened to accomodate The Salute to the Light Horse in the High Country special show. The circus scene that features in both was also highly modified. So there is quite a bit different in them.
  2. Sorry, didn't realise this at first. Can't believe I overlooked it. Clearly MW isn't giving the same copy and paste answer, because everyone else has asked about refurbishment! Your friend on the other hand wanted to enquire about refurnishing! That's a horse of a different colour!
  3. The 2nd Wipeout arm has been installed
  4. Oh, because that’s a quantifiable reasoning...
  5. Push different is not necessarily 'not as good'. The Light Horse segment is the best reviewed part of any show AOS has ever done in 12 years, so it's hard to say it's not as good. My feeling is you will be happy come December 1st...
  6. "Strange things have been happening in the park, A Volcano has suddenly appeared"
  7. Yay more closed things at Sea World
  8. I wouldn't mind if they went full on virtual reality like the old VR-1 at Sega World. After all, the technology has improved leaps and bounds since then and Dreamworld could have a one of a kind ride if it was executed properly. The Australian theme makes me feel concerned, because I get the feeling Ardent will half-ass it and use little more than drone footage, cheap out on the simulator mechanism, and call it a day. If they want to go the simulator route, it is imperative that Ardent take a look at what Disney and Universal are doing and see how they can replicate them within their budget. I'm looking at rides like Iron Man, Minion Mayhem, Simpsons, Star Tours, heck even the old BTTF ride Universal used to have. If Dreamworld's simulator is done very well, they could have a serious winner on their hands, and potentially even put them onto the world stage.
  9. I knew that, The Simpsons RIde uses IMAX dome screens along with a Sony projector
  10. When I see a bruised apple at the market, I give it a soft hug and whisper, "Who did this to you?" Are you ok @pushbutton
  11. Potato! Thanks for the photo confirmation - but do you reckon you could have waited another 60 seconds until you were actually standing in front of the ride?
  12. You didn't feel strongly about something enough to actually bring it to the attention of the people who would be capable of doing something about it, but you felt strongly enough that it should be something raised here to whinge and bitch about. You're the sort of person who won't complain about a meal in a restaurant and then proceed to leave negative feedback on every online review site you can find, aren't you?
  13. This is probably really unrealistic but just hear me out, imagine if they go flying trains like the B&M ones and then they tilt you down and the screen is there so your flying through Australia
  14. Craig’s comments in the interview where he says unless the engineering assessment shows the ride will last another 10 years or they won’t proceed, for me, is the nail in the coffin for the ride. That would put it at what, 41 years old in a decade. I wouldn’t go on it now, let alone in another 10 years
  15. Based on how long it's been without any theming.
  16. Don't feed the trolls Ash!
  17. With this new Universal connection, I wonder if there is potential for a Jurassic World area within Dreamworld. Could make fantastic use of this in all sorts of ways!
  18. TPG has just posted on her blog that she was informed today that Scooby theming will NOT be installed/updated in this maintenance period, it is just a standard annual maintenance cycle of the ride that is occurring. Ride theming will remain as is (i.e. non-existant) for now...
  19. There's more to theme parks than thrill rides! If they do what they say they will and they do it well, it could be fantastic.
This leaderboard is set to Brisbane/GMT+10:00
