New Kids Ride for Movie World
Speedy's Taxi's was only revamped a year ago... so I doubt it will be going. It's still one of the most popular rides in the WBK precinct. Not to mention the ride is actually running halfway reliably now... I'd suggest it could be possible that this could be replacing the Yosemite Sam Railroad as that ride has been closed until further notice...

Water Park at Pimpama/Ormeau?
There is an outdoor play area near the food court, but no water play structure.

Movie World's Fright Night 2012
Just a heads up with the mazes at the back of the park (Film Vault and Walking Dead) The lines were spilling out towards arkham last night... and still the wait time was only 30 minutes. DO NOT be taken back by the size of the lines as they are getting through a heap of people in those mazes. I went last night and managed to get on Green Lantern and did all 4 mazes (Walking dead twice) and saw all the shows as well. It was a great night and honestly one of the best fright night's I had been to.

Melbourne Day trip
If your wanting a good hotel to stay at for a decent price (148 a night if your a rydges member which is free..) QT Gold Coast is an amazing place, clean... vibrant and amazing service and beds to die for. Much better IMO than the Hilton... and a much better price tag

Green Lantern Coaster
If your missus wanted to ride as well (not sure if she's a thrill junkie or not like you) you could even utilize the parent swap along with the single rider queue to really maximize your time Also, having a system similar to Mick Doohan would prove to be an issue due to the automatic doors that block people seeing superman on the back of the train...

new ride at movie world?
I wouldn't expect to ever see Cartoon Network back at VRTP properties... they had it for a while at Sea World and they got rid of it... IMO the Kids WB area and the Western area should be the two areas they focus on after JL:AI 3D is done.

new ride at movie world?
Honestly... I think Movie World has enough roller coasters for now. The park has just brought 2 roller coasters in the last year (if you include the Arkham rehab as honestly it's made it so much better it's like it's new) And has just built a high capacity dark ride. What i'd like to see them build next is something in the kids area as they need something more. Although they are refurbishing the existing children's rides (Speedy's Taxi's and Yosemite Sam Railroad) I'd love to see something in the Tunes Ride building, but it would be quite expensive for them to gut the building and place something else in there i'd assume. So if they were to not place something in the kids area next, I'd love to see a new flat ride in the park. However it would need to be something that is high capacity (at least 24 riders a cycle) so something like a Top Spin as far as capacity goes. Then once they have built a new flat, and done something to the kids area we could consider another coaster or a water ride for the park.

Movie World Trip (it's been a while)
I think i've seen once in the xmas holidays a 10am show, 11am show, 12:30pm show, 1:50pm show and a 4:15pm show. I think (don't quote me on it) the most they do is 5 shows in a day, often 4 in peak (no 12:30pm show) and the 10am is only in xmas holidays as far as I am aware when the park was opening at 9:30am.

2011 TEA/AECOM theme park attendance report
Depends if Ardent wanted to release those figures for the survey, only parks that agreed to submit attendance details are included if i'm not mistaken.

New 4D Movie at Movieworld
The "Grilled Cheese" one is just creepy as hell... I mean seriously, it looks like Elmer Fudd is about to make out with the sandwich! I love "I'm a Martian" though =D

Ricks Cafe - getting an update?
Also, ricks did a all you can drink deal for I think it was 4.95 and you got a cup you could refill in the cafe all day. Not sure if it will be coming back when it reopens but I can't see why it wouldn't.

Inside Today:the Bat, the Bunny & The Bermuda Triangle
IMO Bermuda was one of Australia's best themed attractions, and was a ride that would never get old and could be enjoyed by families of all ages (Pre Jet Rescue Days) However, it was disgusting to see how it was left to rot so to speak in the months before closing...

Inside Today:the Bat, the Bunny & The Bermuda Triangle
Here's a layout that I whipped up on paint earlier tonight of Bermuda, it's not to scale or anything but it's pretty accurate.

The Off Topic Topic
The person driving that car was probably thinking "Well... this is awkward... I wonder if i'll get in trouble for that one!" But then again, compared to the last fail in that show at the park... this is nothing.

It's apparently in storage and reopening... like the rest of Downunderland But I *CAN* Verify that it was there at one point as I did see it myself.

Reef Diver
According to a post on Australian Amusement Fanatics a few years ago, the old Dreamworld enterprise was a Ferrari unit that ended up finding it's way to Downunderland where is is now probably either rusted away or in storage. Posts by Funderstruck
