    To be absolutely fair we haven't seen much in the way of evidence that they actually let them do any maintenance...

    That's, um... actually pretty cool. Dreamworld has made me barrack for them a bit.

    Makes me wonder if they will consider leasing a carnival flat for the space for now. Dreamworld is shooting the lights out up the road lately.

    I think this encapsulates the problems a lot of people (not specifically in theme parks and amusements) have with the risk industry; there's a trend toward "it's a risk because we have said it is and no further correspondence shall be entered into". There's far less willingness to discuss the quantum of the risk on its merits, and even less-so to do it in the context of what the mitigation may entail. Some say it's a pendulum and it may well be, but it's a rather slow one. It's why we can't have nice things.

    God, their voices... And the copy...

    tbh, at the quickest of glances that looked vaguely like a poop emoji.

    Yes, the mics are hard-panned which should have been fixed in post. Rookie stuff.

    I'd think in terms of aesthetic something like the Rainforest Cafe would be pretty workable.

    They were publicly admitting in NPS responses in September of last year that the Monorail was not coming back.

    Took a ride on Big Dipper a few days ago for the first time, and yes; the rattle was very noticeable. It did not coincide with track joints.

    It's helps that it's also substantially more substantial than storm.

    I'd just be a bit careful what grade of room you get there. Their oldest rooms are absolutely rank and are frequently the cause of walkouts. The newest rooms are furthest from the action, the mid-range rooms are fine.

    Neither, it's speculative BS.

    I'm not surprised you're into it. Common misconception in the marketing community. Marketing exists to serve the business (in this case by driving attendance), not just numbers for the sake of the marketers.

    Needs moar teaching.

    Yeah, but like, is that really the type of callback to history that Movie World is crying out for?
  17. webslave
    Then I'd say you honestly need to harden up. There's a whole wide world of actual scary out there.

    The only thing I can think of is that they are trying to represent "a day in the life" on set. And, I think it largely succeeds at that; it's boring, tedious, repetitive, and largely has you wishing nonspecific harm upon everyone involved by the end.

    Via email in a ticket response.

    I have it in writing from the park that it's not. So there's that I guess. You'd be surprised. Here's that technically complex process happening at Darling Harbour on a public thoroughfare in 2013 at midnight.

    I think the issue is Showtime. They are a bunch of revheads, and as such everything they do seems to revolve around that.

    I almost hate myself for that.

    @New display name C'mon buddy, the ops are like watching old people f**k. Cringeworthily slow, and you know by the time it's you on the loading platform you'll probably be 80 too.
  24. webslave
    No hate, just observation. Gut feel is they'd happily leave up an unlaminated A4 sheet for six months without batting an eyelid, so when they are willing to go the extra mile on a for-real sign then you know they are all-in on it taking while.
  25. webslave
    You know you're in for the long haul when they spend on a sign.
