If they can pull this off, WOW WOW WOW. This render actually gives me Disney/Universal vibes in their concept artworks. The detail in it is amazing and I truly hope they can pull this off because this will revolutionise theme parks in Australia and I honestly never thought it was going to be Dreamworld that did that. In my mind, Movie World (and maybe even Sea World) has always been the park to do that. In recent years MW hasn’t leant into that immersion and I hope with Wizard of Oz that changes. Sea World did a good job at it over ten years ago with Castaway Bay (when it opened) and Leviathans queue and station has also stepped things up a notch (it’s a shame that Atlantis as a whole didn’t). And to give Dreamworld some credit, when Dreamworks first opened, they did a good job with it. And I think Tiger Island is still the most well themed area of any Australian theme park, but based off what we’ve seen, if Dreamworld go all out with the story and detailing of the whole land that is Rivertown, this could be unlike anything we’ve seen. We already knew this from the lands plan, but it’s great to see (in a concept artwork) the two attractions interacting with each other. It will be such a joyful moment to be driving on of the cars and having the coaster travel past you. And having massive set pieces like this plane will be spectacular. The last concept artwork of the Jungle Rush entry was impressive, but looking at it again a few times, I definitely think it’s underselling what it will actually be (which could be a good thing). Hopefully they aren’t overselling with this concept artwork, and maybe it is if the budget begins to get blown, but I truly hope they go all out because this land will become the flagship attraction for Dreamworld, maybe even for the Gold Coast theme parks.

For people who want to have a closer look, at the drug smuggler's plane that has crashed in the jungle. //s

“We’re millionaires who got lucky once, but we also are really smart and make great decisions, except for when we don’t ’cause we have flaws as we’re human just like you. [River Rapids mention]. New company bought most of us, but we’re friends & it’s okay (apart from our cinemas, those suck lol. Also, if we don’t make money in the next 3-5 years, we’re kinda screwed. But that’s fiiiiiiiiine, cause we’re friends!). Anyway, $50m Ghost of New Atlantis Past, $100m Ghost of WoO Present, $??? Ghost of Hotels Future. Also, I have children, as a byproduct of being human, just like you.” Snippet about hotels:

It’s anything like recent renders vs reality, we’ll get a fibreglsss Cessna and a shrub next to it

That's the back of the former TOT building

Remove the train and install pedal cars on the track.😀
