  1. Yeah absolutely. I think a lot of the media they've been putting out lately (especially the flash BTS stuff) is probably a proving ground prior to Woz. I keep saying it - and i'm getting really excited to see what they put out for that. You know what, at least now I know why the box is empty which is better than the previous situation where you had to return to the restaurant, park your car, go inside, get the manager, and have them tell you it's your fault you didn't check their website for chicken shortages before ordering.

  2. Also nothing has happened with Doomsday. Edit: The video (and post caption) is great though and I fully support more of this. Its pretty much what we have been asking for, for a long time. Additionally, it shows some great progress of WoO and the build in that area.

  3. It's hard to tell where the photos are gonna be now but from looking over the video I think this is the layout? The first image being the current layout (yellow for queue, blue for lockers and red for exit) and the second image is the new layout (not sure about the exit and where the photo area is) Pretend the red line is the second photo exits onto the top path like the first image not the bottom pathway. That was an accident After more analysis I have found out where the photo check station is. (Orange) and made this updated version of the layout. This is the exact layout in the photos but I don't know what it means. (Blue for lockers, orange for photos and yellow for existing path that's still gonna be used) I am not sure how you will exit the load platform. Probably actually where you exit it now . So ignore where I have it located

  4. Watching a few videos from @Ogre shows nobody is past main street, anything above is a ghosttown. Hopefully something comes to replace it, the hypothetical replacement also utilising the showstage is a plus.

  6. Unfortunately a part of Superman failing could be expected; its an old model that has been discontinued and a coaster hasn't been built in 14 years. XCelerator had issues around its 20 year anniversary with its launch and was closed for 18 months and we know what happened with Top Thrill Dragster and the hydraulic system was removed. Regarding with Doomsday "we are currently exploring options" seems that the ride ever opening is uncertain. It is likely they won't say anything and remove it later once WOZ is done based on the parks track record. With Scooby, its likely work hasn't been done because they needed to close the ride urgently, and Village would have to wait for Mack to finish with their other coasters before coming to work on Scooby, and nothing happening would mean they are still busy. Good to see DCR opening early, although they could just be saying that so people aren't as angry, Most likely a flat or a seating area but I would love for these to come: 1. Dark Ride, showstage building extended out to Doomsday to fit in a bigger ride with more scenes 2. Mack XTreme Spinning Coaster, you could have the launch go through Doomsday and the Showstage out behind Scooby. For theme I have been thinking either generic filmmaking or Mad Max.

  7. Imagine going to KFC, paying for chicken and all you receive is an empty box and a Facebook video, telling you why the box is empty. 🤣

  8. I don't mind giving credit where it's due. Their optics have been terrible these last couple of weeks. this doesn't make up for it, but the transparency is refreshing after years of them just saying 'check the website'. They need to do this more. I'm sure given the details involved, this had to be scripted, shot, edited, and either at the start, the end, or both, it had to go through multiple approval levels in the C-suite and potentially run by Intamin, Mack and WB. Honestly I'm surprised there's nothing mentioned about Flash to 'offset' the 'damage' - especially since its been operating all week. Given all of that, getting it out sooner with this level of polish is probably very difficult. We've all seen recently what happens when you do a social media video with extremely low effort.

  9. I mean with the construction of the 3 other coasters and areas it’s understandable.

  10. Who would have thought? Would have been nicer sooner but props to them for doing it in the end. The video essentially confirms that no works have been carried out on Scooby yet, which is disappointing.

  14. It's that pesky 3pm pickup with a 5pm park closure that gets in the way though, am I right?
