TV alert: Theme parks on great outdoors.
also did you know the whole idea of the segment was to show the 3 new rides at the parks "TOT, JTA and the Mummy" so I think it's purpose was served.

TV alert: Theme parks on great outdoors.
come on guys lighten up. Well seeing it was aimed at general public Down Under Los Angeles is a more likely family desternation also have you been to DCA, Universal they beat any park down here. Not a replica each Tower has different ride programs including the new one being built at DisneySea. also did you know a friend of mine in anaheim help with the design on one of the floors.

Basic park for sure more on par with wonderland rather then the 2 up here DW,MW. But this is where I got my 1st coaster credit with the corkscrew which prepared me for the giants of Japan, and America.

New Ride Coming???
^thats cool dude. I see on other sites this news is breaking too, so must be other staff out there mention it. Anyway trust me this may be Australia's biggest theme park attraction to date beside the combo of TOT/GD. And if you dont live up here you will want to visit next september for sure. I just hope when this news reaches Dreamworld they can give us something big for xmas next year.

New Ride Coming???
posted by djrappa Well I'm not buying into any of this crap until it IS announced as I've heard rumours from far too many people on here that were absolute rubbish... I will say though that what they should be looking at is either a flyer (themed as I have said before) of a big kick arse Woodie...country really needs a good one of these, never have had one before :-) thats your choice but remember if I cant say then its pretty much a done deal because im not allow to say crap as i vaule my job too much P.S Joz knows its real as he works at the parks and he rang me last night. So just wait for the public announcement

Another Fire at Movie World
I didnt want to comment on this as I knew some guys working over there. But I need to clear some things up, for you guys. (1) yes there was a fire crew there for the shooting. (2) they were shooting a inferno scene and 2 american film crew had earlier in the week purchased loads of filming wax which is used for big burning scenes. What happen from what ive been told at work was there was a bookcase which was either placed wrong or fell the wrong way. which cause the chaos, and basically cause a donimo effect and the fire speard way too fast that the fire crew on set had no choice but to evacuate the studio. so its good that no one was hurt. and insurance is a great thing.

Fright Night
If you were turned away from scobby it was either a mechinal fault or you were either too large, too drunk or too pregnant. MW and SW do not turn guest away for any other reason on busy times when the lines are long we stay till everybody in line has ridden. The op will close the ride at 5pm (closing time) and everyone in the line will still get to ride.
