I think the last removal was to build the Constrictor.

Arkham Asylum - VR coaster at Movie World
Well not only is the theme of it Shock Therapy, but the game the coasters based off did have quite a few exposed wires at times; not to mention the abundance of electric flooring...

Wet 'n' Wild Sydney New Ride 2016/17
So I went up for a ride over to the park today to see if the new ride had been built or if there was anything onsite for it, but alas there was nothing. Not even a shipping container or Skip (apart from the general waste one in the maintenance carpark). The only thing that seemed new was a bunch of dinosaurs placed around the lazy river. But seeing as i havn't been there since season 1, i don't know if they were there last season or not. But i do know they make loud roaring noises that don't get turned off. Here's photos anyway of the dinosaurs and some pallets next to the pump house near the Double BOWLSeye and The Curler's tower. Also my phones digital zoom is terrible and i didn't have my 200mm with me.

Doomsday Destroyer - 2016 Movie World construction
More so, as would i, but unless this is a younger half transformation KC, then i'd rather a better jawline atleast. Croc is supposed to be a hulking monstrosity, not 6ft and human looking. Hopefully the movie explains that he's only halfway into his career, and in the future we can see the Killer we all know.

Doomsday Destroyer - 2016 Movie World construction
Could those featured (Scarecrow, Bizarro, and Killer Croc) be hints at the future or? Cause i see Bizarro fitting a coaster like his opposite, Superman. Meanwhile Scarecrow and KC both have ideas and ideals that fit a Showstage. With one preying on nightmares and the other hiding out primarily in the sewers. I's see Scarecrow as a motion dark ride and KC as a log flume. Unfortunately we have both of those and space says no to one.

Star Tour All Access Pass - Behind the scenes at Movie World
My 2 questions are, are there any gremlins references on Scooby itself, and did Greg name drop us or indirectly reference Parkz (or TPR)? Also did anyone ask for specifics on the entire southern end of the park?

Arkham Asylum - VR coaster at Movie World
If it's synced well, you have more chance of not getting sick. Recommend going to your nearest Samsung store and having a look at the Gear VR display to try VR first. You too @Jobe. Also, unless you have vision like Velma Dinkley, then you wont need your glasses cause there's and adjustment dial. I take my Viewmaster everywhere with me (lives in my "work" bag) and of the people i've shown it too, i've converted everyone i've shown it too that thought it was just a gimmick. Downloading cardboard camera is a fantastic conversion tool to make people believe in VR. If i have not just a good shot lined up, but also want something i can show others to make it feel like they're there, i use that.

My guess is testing starts from 830 on the bigger things, so the hill climb would probably be the first thing you do? Then walk around inside the rides?

Arkham Asylum - VR coaster at Movie World
With the release of Arkham VR in October or so, this is perfectly timed. In terms of story, i think they'll keep it with the shock therapy tag. Also give them a chance to fix the speakers. The only feet dangling thing i can think of though, would be Wyns description or being attached to the bottom of the batwing or something. Otherwise there's the option that every motion simulator ride uses: being consistently thrown around from place to place to convey a story. In thinking with the last one, the story coming to mind would be, you're strapped into an electric chair, Joker pulls a lever (kronk) and you get hijacked by ivy or something, she drops you, you fall into a sewer and meet killer croc.etc. But having just watched a POV, the rides movements do better suit the batwing.

DC Rivals HyperCoaster construction discussion
Well if they want "World Class", the ride would need something very "phwar ayy" like rubbing a shiny stick in your face. In which case it needs to be something innovative, SE is World Class with its pre-show (despite not being a "World Class pre-show") right into a top hat. Scooby is WC with it's theming and innovative with the lift and backwards section. Wild West is relatively WC by being one of the worlds only flume rides with a coherent theme you can understand. Ideally if we're looking at a WC coaster with traditional layout, then it would need to be big. But if its some degree of compact, it should be something new to at least the GC. At the very least id like something along the lines of Firechaser Express with Mystery Mine being a stretch goal.

Finally getting my passport! Yay!!!!
With Sea Life they are all generally the same. But they do follow the rule of "same same but different". If you're willing to brave the heat, east/west side parks are nice, as is the Botanical Gardens. I also recommend popping into the lounge at the Shangri-La on Sentosa as the view is fantastic. The markets at Little India and China Town are great too.
