Dreamworld 5 year plan - a challenge
jjuttp replied to aussienetman's topic in Theme Park Discussion
I'm going to start with the live music comment. would you rather sit at home and listen to destroyer by KISS on cd or Youtube, or witness it live? Fake blood and all. And not to mention that 10 years ago live music was how bands got their start and found. Now Sony BMG (prime example) just take the 1st person who walks through their doors just to drop of the mail at reception, and thinks "Well they look good" "Sweet, ill go get them and we can autotune them and plug their radio plays until the riots start." Secondly, wouldn't knocking down the palace be kinda hypocritical to what we're saying about DW? Things like the 2 Luna Parks are the closest things to the 1920's we have without talking about whores with razor-blades. This is the one thing that they've kinda benefited on; NOT changing and just keeping that original carney feel to things. And theaters being abundant in melbourne? In QLD every 5k's along the GC Highway is a place to hold a koala but i wouldn't want AWE or currumbin to close now would we? How else will we inform gullible people of Drop Bears? And lastly; would you rather a large bag of M&M'S for $5 or 2 medium sized bags for $6? Same goes for rides. -
I don't think that it's going to be a new area at the aquarium, although we are fiddling with something.....I just can't remember what.... But with the whole Sea Life crap thats supposed to be happening in september, or at least thats what the map says anyway. Honestly they should of just left everything as it was, everybody knows them by the old names and not the new ones. Particularly cause they're not plugging them enough, if at all. Seriously in my animal studies class, with at least half of us going onto captive animals, if i said to anyone in my class that i work at WILD LIFE Sydney their direct reply is "Where the fuck is that?" but when i say Wildlife World they know exactly where/what it is. With some just needing me to say that its next to the aquarium because they were unsure of the name. Wii is shit. End of story.

The Today show was there for the opening for Transformers.

Any gamer over 12 will tell you that Nintendo have dug themselves the same hole that Dreamworld are currently in. They are STILL trying to be innovators in the gaming world- this is something thats been happening for countless years now right back to the Powerglove an Virtual Boy. Now try and find a decent game on a Nintendo console that doesn't involve Mario, Yoshi OR Luigi. I only know 1-Epic Mickey.

Dump MDMC. Build a small woodie. Dump MDMC. Tell people that Redline has something to do with the GC 500. Dump MDMC. Give the aminals some more popularity, as opposed to just the tigers. Dump MDMC. Return the fountains to normal. Dump MDMC. Actually give Shockwave some themeing and a story. Dump MDMC. Return Vortex Dump MDMC. Bring back characters. Dump MDMC. Utilize the island for something magical or some shit. Dump MDMC. And just make the place feel like a magical bush-style park again. Dump MDMC. and did i also mention that they should Dump MDMC? -
That was my other question.... And one side has the IMAX and the other has the Convention Centre
-
That areas been complete since like last march.... And what boardwalk? its ON king st wharf? No one goes towards the "Ent Cent" where SW was. Also where would anything new in Darling Harbour fit? theres literally no room.

They have been there for close to a year now, alot of them have been taken out (we have 3 out the back that look like they're grinding each other). WILDLIFE used to have them around but we got rid of them aswell, and to be honest i don't really see where they would of fit aswell because its already tiny enough in there, and school groups dont do any justice to it either..... I haven't had a look at Madam's either but i have seen some of the 78 (?) characters and they do look really well done, even up close.

Looks like "Pricilla Queen of The Island". In otherwords that T-Rex looks like a drag queen.

I like how she's gone and changed ALL of her posts now.........

Correction. Fire and explosions make EVERYTHING better.

What MW and DW would look like post-apocalypse?
jjuttp replied to sam11's topic in Theme Park Discussion
And the added fact that they actually like their own post too.... BOT, look up Six Flags New Orleans. A while back, there was a link posted here of a good set with a lot of HDR i think or that was a different set, either way the HDR set and that link both look really good. -

I'm lost, so ill try here.... To suit me AND THE CUSTOMERS? Logic. It doesn't take much to please me; I'm happy with teacups even. what annoys me is things like lack of theming, and poor placement (eg. shockwave). But you get some really snooty customers, like americans who think that everythings shit cause its not in america, and bloody huge. for example, take a look at Seaworld Orlandos manta 60% of youtube comments are slamming it cause its nothing like florida. But what really shits me is things like motocoaster, they ripped out a classic and put it into a part of the park that not-many people go to, and with most people at the park being locals they know that every 5k's along the GC highway is somewhere where you can hold a koala. thus no one goes there and think that they don't exist anymore. And for the record as much as all of us would like our own park, I'm currently working towards a wildlife park instead. And Liz.wis, Concrete is blue lagoon. I don't buy alcohol every weekend, because i don't see the point in getting pissed daily, nor the point of clubbing if thats what you;re referring to. i barely even drink that much, i haven't had a drink in probably over a month. I barely even buy Xbox games that much even, i just play-swap them with a guy at work. prior to the last game i bought 2 weeks ago (for $4 preowned as well) the last time i actually bought one was the 18th of december last year, and even then getting 2 games at the same time brand new hadn't been done in close to 3 years.I haven't bought new clothes in months as well, i only buy the cheap Jay Jays stuff. I don't even own a shitbox car , so how can i even have a fancy car? And taking a girl to dinner? Do realize how hard it is to get a girlfriend, let alone a friend outside of Scouts, while having aspirers? Very hard. Start living? Or i could assist in helping animals live, just for the enjoyment of some tourists. And no. I don't know him. For the record , there are no rides off the top of my head in Australia, that have a flying motion, while going round, that can give butterflies. Unless you mean that Churro that you ate 5 mins before riding.

Totalthrills, was the 1st incarnation of this website. TT est. 2002 Roller-coaster.com.au est. 2004? and Parks est. '07?
-
We did complain about MW, just not as much.... And yes, the Motocoaster.
-
To celebrate, you should give away another TT shirt.... Or a Parkz one or something.... just to commemorate.....
-
We are boycotting them, because of terrible decisions made with the last (?) CEO. eg. Moving the cars to a place noone knows exists, and replacing it with a terrible coaster. Shock wave, and its lack of theming. Concrete:the ride. Redline. AVPX Mineride Capt. Sturt And did i mention the terrible coaster?

1- Hi, each of us are good, thanks. 2-I recommend you fall in love with the park in 5 years , as opposed to now, as we and the park itself are currently trying to boycott DW. 3-Yes. We do know our stuff. 4-About 2 days.... 1 per park 5-Not sure, but i think that it would have something to do with the fact that , that park would be the park of your dreams or something? 6-Thunderbolt, Age, and i believe that there were some problems and the manufacturer closed down. 7-Yes it is, Read the "Dreamworlds New Pass" thread. 8-Kenny? Everyone loves kenny. for the record Kenny's a Koala - and Koala's are not bears. Welcome.

Also, when i went last year i noticed at the back end (Near the animals) where the islands "split in 2"; there was a treehouse like thing crossing over the water, just hidden by trees. Was this used for the show or?

The ideas there, but the money isn't. I mean the ads when they started off about Sam & Bluey starting the park were great, and so was the idea of surf culture but we've had the stage 3 expansion dwindling around for too long here and its looking at the same path as Duke Nukem Forever. the thumbing round the park is great, and some of the ride ideas are alright. But now thats just come to a halted stop.

You missed Wipeout's water and shark, and Wiz....Yeah the wizard that played GOOD MUSIC. But obviously you younger readers don't know what good music is, because people like Nicki Minaj are considered "Hits"....
