Spotty

Do you mean the Beetlejuice character that used to be in the Gremlins ride, or the roving one? I remember they used to have Seymour from Little Shop of Horrors walking around Movie World, with a mechanical version of Audrey II.

It was only a 5 min wait with 2 trains being loaded. And OMG the rain hurts alot!

They do too... it was playing today at Stars (talk about appropriate for the weather) Also, Superman Escape was running full loads IN THE RAIN today... and It has for a while now.

I don't think they do anymore, During the parades and shows the music on Main Street matches that.

Ah yes, they do play the Indiana Jone's theme song too. I remember back when the only music they played was instrumental songs. Not the songs we hear now.

Die

MAIN STREET: Theres No business Like Show Business Men In Black Rocky Theme Boogie Wonderland Star Wars Theme Star Wars "Cantina Band" Hooray for Hollywood Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead James Bond Theme Pink Panther Chicago - Overture / And All That Jazz believe Me, working in Stars Cafe, that music gets so annoying that you NEVER want to Hear it again!

Hey... I havn't started working... YET I've only had orientation. And besides, I don't think i'm cooking... but i'm not 100% on it But because the way attendance has been booming at the parks in the last few years, maybe they are having extra toilets on site to prevent queuing. Because it will be one thing if peeps are complaining about long queues in peak season, but it would be even worse if they were complaining for half hour waits just to use the toilets! And to keep with the movie theming, they could even dress up the cleaners to look like Kenny!

At Movie World? Hmmm... Wasn't there on Wednesday when I had orientation. I have no idea what they are doing there.

It has been for a while now

Hmmm... well Gazza, maybe Richo is trying to tell us something with the Cyclone (woodie) images ending up in the Dreamworld gallery (we can only dream of getting a woodie) But I'm really looking forward to when Parkz is fully open

Ah okies... shame on Dreamworld

That is not the case though, there is a traveling Trabant in Australia that runs alot faster. It's a pity that Dreamworld doesn't run the ride the way it could. But I think when it was next to the Wipeout (where Cyclone's sign used to be, it ran faster than where it is located now)

Hmmm... but did it still run faster than what it does now? I think the old Enterprise (the replaced one) is currently in Canberra, as I remember seeing it behind Downunderland a few years back.

Where did you get this information from? Just curious thats all. However if the Mine Ride does re-open, I can say I will be VERY happy

If the Stingray ran like Chance Trabant's are MEANT to run, you will find that they are actually a very fast ride with rather high G Forces. Just look at this video here: That shows what the Stingray IS capable of if they beef it up. I mean... I know it's a kid's ride, but even then it's very slow for one of them. Anyone remember the "Roulette Wheel" that used to be where the Wipeout lives now? If anyone here has rode it could you tell us what the ride experience was like? I'm sure it's 10x Better than what it is now (as it's the same ride)

The half price annual pass offer has now finished.

The water will not be returning.

The average launch speed for the Tower of Terror is 156kph, It is running at 159kph right now from what I have been told. While 3km may not seem like much, it is enough to send it about 10m higher.

It didn't say that when I was there but oh well.

Theres a single rider line? There wasn't one there yesterday?

Original, the Tower of Terror is indeed going higher than it normally does. On Tuesday the "You reached ... KPH" sign was WORKING... but as of today it's not again I have heard several things from various people, but I'm not 100% as to how valid they are. But from what they have told me, they could be doing some minor upgrades to theming (lighting and smoke machines) and the 2nd rumor I have heard (and am leaning towards) is the installation of Air Conditioning / Fans throughout the queue line. Which could be why it's only closed for one day instead of several.

In regards to the Stingray maintenance, it should be re-opening soon, the ride is back in place minus the stingray part. I was there today.

Derwan, First sorry for the late reply, but in regards to the Wipeout's sequence being changed, it has indeed been modified slightly when it went down for maintenance about 2 months ago. The sequence itself hasn't changed much at all, just the arm speeds sped up / slowed down accordingly. I noticed it when riding it for the first time in a few months about 3 weeks ago, that during the middle section of the ride the flipping is alot more abrupt and intense. I have since asked a few of my contacts about it and there has indeed been some MINOR changes made to it to give it that little bit more of a kick.

A Zyklon Loop is basically a Galaxy with more headbashing and OTSR's So all I can say is OUCH
