Isn't there already a thread about this? Sure I have typed info about this before...

Considering I don't watch the Today Show, but do watch Sunrise, and Eddie was at MW on the Christmas parade floats, in the HWSD set talking about Overdrive... I would say lolman is correct...

Thanks for that themeparkgc. I am going with maintenance being the main factor... Considering what they do already, and those ramps being further back (if that is where they would be placed) safety doesn't seem like it would be much of an issue. Would love to see them do a rehash of the show after Overdrive to include a little more stunt work... Why not have a guy in maintenance uniform do a high fall when the cars go up top for the finale? Have the motorcycle rider catch on fire when he rides through it... Take the best of both worlds, merge some of the longest running stunt show in the world, give it a nod and bring some of those features into their new show...

Excellent... Was heading down this Saturday already... Will be interesting to see something a little different. Weren't they originally planning to have large ramps for the cars in the arena when HWSD first started up? Sure I saw it in a tv commercial or promo pic somewhere...

I agree that they probably just used that as an out, but as someone who likes to use feedback as a chance to improve I would have preferred the real reason even if it was that I didn't fit the image they were after. Anyways that is the past and I have since moved on so... meh.

I did the script they gave and continued on with the scripting not remembering where it finished. They stopped me and stated that wasn't part of the script we were given and queried how I knew the rest word for word. I informed them I had been a long time attendee to the park and knew most of their scripts back to front. After asking me to do a few, including lethal weapon, parts of the movie magic sound stage (keeping in mind this was a 40 minute approx script for 4 different staff) and the great gremlin adventure which had closed approx 1 year prior, they ended the interview. The same head of HR did my interview both years. I wore suit pants and a button up long sleeve shirt the first year, jeans and a short sleeve button up shirt the following. I told them I had finished year 12 and did a lot of drama and music since high school the first year, left it out in the second. I called the first year as they had said they would know by a certain date so called the following day to be told they hadn't made the decision that they would know the next day. I called the following day and was informed that I was unsuccessful. When I asked why I was told I was overqualified for the position and that me calling them to enquire about the position had come accross as pushy and impatient.

I attended the first round interviews a few years back for Dreamworld. You fill in the paperwork and sit around. The issue then was that they went alphabetically by surname and they finished at a certain time. Too bad for anyone whose surname started with an M or later because we didn't get an interview and they didn't even take our paperwork to look over. MW did a group interview where they gave us a short script (5 mins per person) that we had to present to get through to the 1 on 1 interviews. Got called back and had to present the LTRR script for the first room. Word of warning... Do not let them become aware you know it back to front or any of the pre show scripts. They immediately ended my interview and told me I was too "overqualified" for the position. I returned the following year and played it dumb, forgot parts of the script and "had to use the script" as I was too nervous. It was the worst interview I have given and was sucessful. They will not contact you if you are not successful and while calling them to find out may seem like you are showing interest in the position. They take it as you are pushy and impatient. These words are straight from the mouth of the HR department head when I spoke to her.

I'm with you here AlexB. What do you expect for a storm season? The company I work for sees a huge increase in contact with the public when these sort of forecasts are predicted and then have to deal with angry people calling as a follow up if they didn't get the warning and act in time or did get the warning, acted and then nothing eventuated. You cannot have it both ways. Sadly many people are now looking at the number of "false" warnings and not taking action when the threat becomes real. A prediction is just that, not a certainty.

Got a release this morning that the "World Pass", which is valid through until Dec 2014 next month, will be for sale from today. "Please be advised that the old World Pass has been removed from sale and replaced by Unlimited entry until 24/12/2014."

Don't we did it... Badly computer generated fly over which starts with the operator clicking the video with a mouse pointer and then only one lot of spray and some bubbles... Was a waste of $10... Spent more time looking at how close the seats got the the sides than the screen.

Back in 2000 when the first Pokemon movie came out there was a tram that took you over to one of the sound stages where they had a walkthrough experience. It was called the Pokemon Island Adventure and it had animated Pokemon characters. Was only there for about 6 months though.

I know things can change but was there on the weekend and it was still closed... Also to any SW reps reading, if you are not going to show live footage of the mum and cub, at least don't have the time and date stamp on it... Was showing footage from 17/07 10pm on Saturday before lunch...

Given the fact there are 3 other boats in the area under the Storm Coaster I would say they are using salvaged boats. Also, after the main splash down, the small airtime hill looks like they are going to place a shiping container either side from the concrete they have placed. Dive under one, then race up between two others...

I think you are well entitled to ask those questions given you would be donating towards their salvation. I know I would much rather donate knowing they were going to be in a proper museum type exhibit set up as they would have been on track than sitting in some steel shed on concrete with little restoration completed. Personally I think, from the replies you have posted it sounds they are either a) clueless to answer as they have no current action plan past getting the trains looking to make a quick buck and using this as a chance to do that or c) threatened by the fact that there might be someone out there that has a better idea or grasp on the ideas that they should have come up with. (Probably all 3 to be honest.)

It has a seperate area that states activites not allowed including no food and drink, recent surgery, back and neck issues, under the influence of alcohol, pregnant. It also states in the same area as height less than 90, between 90 and 110 ride with adult, sit independently, and follow directions of staff. The heading for that area is physical requirements. So it does not fall as you are attempting to tell me. If you would like I will get a photo when I head down there on Wednesday so you can see what I am talking about.

I know that is what they mean but it is written exactly as I posted. So it states less than 90cm is good, anyone between 90 and 110 must be accompanied by an adult and everyone else, well too bad.

Not a rumour anymore. Was there today and the audio playing in the lower viewing area states they are building the enclosure so they can be on display and it is due to be completed in September. Also, was at MW this morning. According to the signage out the front of JL3D, physical requirements, height less than 90cm. So... Guests under 90cm are okay?

Does anyone know offhand what the certain medical conditions are that would exclude a person from JL3D? Got a small group outing happening just after the school holidays and needing a plan of attack for the group including rides they can and cannot do. JL3D is the only one I am unsure with a few of the attendees.

True but given the fact that all of their night events have WWF closed not much of a suprise.

So it seems MW is joining forces with the Pyjama foundation and having a PJ party themed night event ... "Experience the wonder of Warner Bros. Movie World by night including all your favourite rides* & attractions in the comfort of your PJ’s. By attending this amazing event, you’ll be helping to support children in foster care. There will be live entertainment, face painting, photo booths & prizes. Plus help us to break the world record for the biggest Pyjama Party of all time!" Would be nice to see them do this sort of thing more frequently in conjunction with other foundations to raise money as well as giving the public other nights to attend instead of just 2 periods during the year.

Finally got a ride where I could feel the rush of wind, brings that little extra to it. New pb: 112,185. On a quick side note, as walking through the DC store noticed the JL figures... Wonderwoman, Cyborg and Flash all $39.95... Aquaman $37.95...

Tried 4 times last Saturday to go on this with relatives who paid for the day. 30 minute waits each time which was great considering the inside switchbacks were full. Shame that after 10 - 15 minutes of waiting it broke down all 4 times and they emptied the switchbacks and got people to line up outside while they fixed the issue. It was my description of this ride that got them interested in going to MW since they are not big thrill seekers. A bit annoying to be let down in the end.

I think this ride is wonderfully themed as is the whole area. Dreamworld has certainly pulled out all the stops for this new area. Little confused with the idea of themeing the carriages as done considering they will be looping around. They don't seem like the sort of thing you would see flying around. Thinking a trip to DW is definately in order in the new year.

Had two guests (early 20's males) go to MW yesterday and I made sure I told them to go into the Hall of Justice building to get on the ride. Got feedback this morning that they loved it and due to the average weather spent a lot of their day re-riding and trying to beat their old scores. Also noticed Friday evening driving home from Brisbane that there is a banner that spans the Southbound lanes going past Garden City shopping centre advertising the ride as "All New Justice League Ride 3D". Does this mean the so called "technical period" is over?

If he entered the parking space at 'the speed he did', how did you have time to 'move closer to the car so as not to be hit' ? Wife called out as she saw him start to swing as if he would be pulling in to space. What type of car model do you have, and what type of pram? 2011 Kia Rio, ZuZu Genesis And what type of car was this guy driving? Telstar.
