Not even close. I spent the day with John Longhurst just recently and had a chance to interview him about this - feverishly working through the transcriptions as we speak so stay tuned.

Just thought i'd add a little snippet of what's to come, if you can't picture it yet I can almost guarantee it'll be like this: This is a construction picture of Flyover Canada from Syncra Construction , an almost identical project where an IMAX theatre of a similar size was converted into a 60+ seater i-ride. If you're curious as to how that happened, InPark Magazine interviewed Rick Rothschild (who worked on Soarin' & Flyover Canada) and had this to say: I did some research about both auditorium sizes prior to their respective conversions and updates, and there's a marginal difference of approx. 50 seats or 3m of screen height between the two, with the IMAX theatre in Canada being the slightly larger one. TLDR, i'd be surprised if they don't go for the 60+ seater version, especially when it's already been done.

That would have definitely been it! Found a couple more oldies from 99 - 01. Closer Look at the Shark Some peacocks with their chicks. ToT Skull Now memory is vague, but I remember around 2001 they added a bunch of what seemed like carnival rides? I had forgotten about it until I seen these, I think they were near tiger island.. Same place they would use to bring in the motorbike dome of death. June - 2001 had the Mummy walk through - First year of big brother! - Old Vintage Cars Station - Something Different - Thats all from 2001

Such a hit of nostalgia looking through these.. Few tears but awesome memories, looked through the photos up to 2000. Stingray - 95 Forgot the name - 95 Old fire engine near the steam train entrance - 95 When Tiger Island first opened in 1995, these guys were born in 1994. Samara one of the goldens, is the mother of Sultan, Sita, Rama and Taj. Old Candy shop - 96 Blue Lagoon - 96 Looking on at the newly completed Tower of Terror, standing on the old Paddle ship - Early 1997 Next to the old fire engine above - 97 Avalanche - 97 Steemwheel paddle wheeler outlaws - 97 Giant drop with operating chair lift - 98 Think dreamworld had redone the area near the current nick land that included a ride with dinosaurs? Memory is vague - 98 Thunder bolt - 98 98 Gravitron - 99 Enterprise - 99 Great memories

At the moment it doesn't look as wild as some other RMCs, but I think once it wears in a bit and picks up speed it's going to get a lot better.

The shack near TRR is just that, theming. I could explain why the Hollywood house got its name but I won’t. There is very little of the actual house left.

Thanks MC. Its blatantly obvious what their problems are.

Aside from giving much needed shelter from the rain/sun, the main st cover at movieworld really knocked down the visual appeal of the park a few notches.

After the CGI rendered version above, there's now a Twisted Timbers on-ride, albeit from a non-seat angle. Buttery smooth. The back end of this ride, with the off-bank turns, flicks and tight bends, is alluring, even if it's not the beast that Steel Vengeance is.

Jeez never new the chaos and scorpion rides went to DW. That brings back some memories.

I am making enquiries. We certainly believe we can assist. But it will be up to VRTP. Will keep you posted if we do.

Fun Fact, that Graviton has been traveling around Western Australia since it left Dreamworld with Mitro, West Coast Amusements until it was sold last year.

So suspect.
