  1. Agreed, also you can't really poll these rides against each other because they are 3 different rides type. The poll doesn't say what poll is about. Is it the best family ride? Is it the best ride in Australia? Why are these 3 rides going against each other in the first place? Rampage against Vortex is more of a fair & interesting poll.
  2. The map doesn't confirm the restaurant is gone for good. It confirms the restaurant won't be opening before DW produces a new map. But maybe the restaurant is going and that is where, Jungle Rush is extending to.
  3. Dreamworld's fish. Brogent Tecnologies VR fish. Looks like the same fish to me.
  4. I can't think of any ride doing loading worse than SV. A couple of weeks ago my wife was on SV when the ride was stopped halfway through the experience because somebody pulled out a phone. My wife said, when they restarted the checking, people were asking "can we not just get off".😂
  5. @Vidgamer we posted at the same time.😂 The manufacture of SV, Brogent Tecnologies, have been dabbling with under water experiences.. The photos shows virtual goggles with a Brogent ride system, maybe this is happening.
  6. Unless whales live on land these days, it looks underwater. Might be a submarine adventure.
  7. You are right @Guest 239. DW could replace the baggage with a temporary aquarium.
  8. What does DW do with the Airport theming, running an underwater film?
  9. Do not forget the can of tuna that will be placed in the scent machine, to create a nice aroma.
  10. I was trying to improve my Mangrove Jack fishing technics last night by resorting to watching YouTube videos because this year's season of Jack fishing has shattered my confidence with endless donuts. After the first video, a suggestion popped up, that I should watch a video on an abandon six flags amusement parks. My ADHD quickly kicked in which made me completely forget why I was watching YouTube in the first place, which led me to a late night watching abandoned park videos. It got me thinking, how many other people have ventured into old theme parks? When I was young whipper snapper after Brisbane’s Expo88 theme park closed down, the site laid dormant for many years. The park’s rides were removed but many structures remained. The offices/storage areas which were under the theme park remained too. I don’t know why I was in South Brisbane with my mates because back in the day, South Brisbane wasn’t a safe place to be in but we were walking past the entrance and realised the roller door that coved the entrance was missing and you could freely trespass inside. Trespass might be a strong word because as we entered, police rode past on their bikes and said nothing to us. (to us, that was a green light) I think we spent a good few hours exploring the old park, it felt like we were back at the park when it was open but only we didn’t go on any rides. (because there was none😵🤦‍♀️) When I look back on the juvenile trespassing experience it was a great & strange experience at the same time. After exploring the main park area we decided to explore the offices that ran underneath the park. (For people who don’t know much about the park, Expo 88 Fun Park was an elevated theme park and under the theme park had storage and offices. See Parkz attached photo to see how the park was elevated above the street). We entered the start of the underneath area which we thought might have been an old office and we came across loads of items that the park left behind when it closed down. It was like Christmas for a theme park enthusiast, from hats to Expo 88 Fun Park logos printed on cups. After exploring the first room we moved into the next room filled with anticipation on what we might find next when my friend yelled. “Get out!” I have never run so fast in my life and I didn’t know what I was running from but from what I heard in his voice, I knew he wasn’t joking. We ran all the way out of the park and onto the sidewalk. Once he got his breath back, he informed us people were sleeping on the floor. I didn’t end up with one souvenir from that trip to Expo88 Fun Park but running through the theme park, back onto the sidewalk, I had never been more scared in a theme park. I guess the old girl, still had one thrill left in her. Expo 88 Theme Park overlooking street. Video that started my YoutTube marathon.
  11. I would make you eat those words.😂 I don't think this generation of kids would get too excited at looking at a winking kangaroo. Maybe if WnW had a big Ipad out the front.
  12. When Matilda was first at Cade's County, she would turn her head and wink at you as you drove down the highway. Kids would be hanging out the window of the cars, waiting to see the wink. I'm looking at you TPSN. 😂
  13. @REGIEdid you not already know you liked Levi's lighting package and theming without riding 500 coasters?
  14. I don't need you to explain to me, what other people are saying. If JHUNT2 has something to say about what JHUNT2 thinks, I'm happy to engage but if it's all "He's not saying" "He never said you did" I would rather talk to @Reggie74about what he thinks.
  15. Sorry, but I read the first sentence and decided not to read anymore. Have a good day.
  16. Going to theme park by yourself definitely has its perks and it's my preferred method.
  17. And I'm saying it doesn't take 500 coasters to know these things. It doesn't take 500 coasters to know if you like theming, lighting etc. You ride 100 coasters (probably way less) you will know most elements of roller coasters and you will know what you like or don't like. @Reggie74already knows what @Reggie74likes without riding 500 coasters.
  18. @REGIEyou don't need to ride 500 coasters to know what you like and don't like. I prefer trip reports over reviews because I like to be shown and not told what to like.
  19. I'm sure they are nice people but the only reaction video I want to see is, King Charles III riding Rivals backwards.
  20. Pictures.😵 /s It's in the fountain location. From this picture it looks like they have just put Batwing in the wrong location.
