Green Lantern Coaster
Myfun main page: Green Lantern Coaster is coming to Warner Bros. Movie World! Experience fun and thrills of a galactic proportion as you take on the steepest inverted drop in the southern hemisphere. Opening soon. Click on find out more and it takes you to the MW, Rides, Green Lantern page: Experience fun and thrills of a galactic proportion as you take on the steepest inverted drop in the world. Looks like they still don't know what is going on... I know a little off topic but quick query... Then, brave the ROAD RUNNER Rollercoaster - Australia's only family rollercoaster. Is this correct? What about the "Sky Rocket" at Dreamworld?

Just saw a tv ad for the coaster... Seems they removed the "steepest drop in the world" visual and voice over and have replaced it with "steepest drop in the southern hemisphere".

The themeing seems to be coming along and the whole area looks a fair bit better than it did a week ago. Hopefully there is a little more to come in the next 6 days before grand opening.

White Christmas 2011
Saw the tv ad this morning for the Summer Pass and have a few friends heading to MW on New Years Day. Add on the wife being pregnant and wanting to stay cool this summer I decided to look into this pass just for the couple of months to find: Summer Pass $89.99 Unlimited entry to the Big 3 Parks - Warner Bros. Movie World, Sea World and Wet'n'Wild Water World - until 29 February 2012. You must be a Queensland resident or resident of Northern NSW postcodes 2450 - 2490 to be eligible for this offer, you must present photographic proof of residency. Movie World's White Christmas is SOLD OUT. Should they perhaps be stating on their tv ad that White Christmas has sold out? Or is this another one of those "VIP will get free entry" when selling the passes but down the track "$10 charge for VIP pass holders?"

Actually sat down and watched the Green Lantern movie last night. While it is not the best superhero movie out there it did have its moments. It has left me a bit curious exactly what the on board audio is going to be though. Are we going to be flying through some form of non visual battle or will it simply be an excerpt from the soundtrack or movie? Is worth at least a ride to see how well this is tied in.

Aussie World seeking new $1 million ride! (& building a playground!)
Geewhiz people. You are all making me want to go to Aussie World more and more. At least with the pregnant wife I have someone to look after my bags.

NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! I remember seeing footage of this ride when my grandparents went many years ago and have always wanted to experience it myself.

Sorry, didn't mean they were spending it in 2 weeks. Just thinking, if every pay were 2 million. My bad should have been clearer.

Green Lantern Coaster
Could anyone give any idea of the sort of themeing budget some of their past rides have had? Just received word they have got a budget of 2 million for themeing alone. Wish I was given 2 million to spend in just over 2 weeks

Interesting though that people don't do this crap to everyone. Just those with whom they seldom agree. Great to see cars on the tracks and can't wait to see what sort of themeing they will get in there in the 16 days if they are still going for December 15.

Green Lantern Coaster
I have been informed they had some issues with the last piece of track not meeting up by about 7cm. They are still hoping to meet the December 15 opening though.

But a family of 5 including smaller children cannot all ride Scooby together can they? The smaller children don't meet the height restrictions on Scooby where they would have on Gremlins. How is this still a family ride if the whole family cannot go on it? It brings us back to the babysitting fiasco previously mentioned.

Yet to see as no interest but families with small children... I have no current interest however with the wife currently pregnant I am sure that once we have a young child this would be something that would become an interest to my family. Shows and themeing over rides. Meaning I prefer them over rides. Doesn't mean I have to like them all. How is it any different to the people in these forums that say the love coasters yet dislike MDMC? I did not say they need to just build more stuff I'm, sorry, I'M interested in, that would just be stupid. They need to look at how they do their polls because they are obviously missing a great chunk of the public opinion. I work in the hospitality industry where we provide accomodation for many thousands of tourists each year. The comments I make, as I have said before, are also the comments that have been made to me by these people that stay at our hotel and attend the parkz.

Except when 5/7 rides at MW are coasters. Remembering they are closing the other rides and attractions to put these things in. Yes I know space doesn't allow it but if they were complimenting the rides line up instead of replacing it making it 5/10 which would still include a selection of family rides as well.

To finish this off take a look at this time last year; - White Christmas a sold out smash!!! - Castaway Bay a real themeing spectacle that we hadn't seen in a long time featuring 3 attractions - Excellent addition, awesome themeing, spend most of my day at Seaworld there, especially since the pirate themed wedding we had 3 years ago. Definately the greatest addition in the parkz over the year. It is a family area where younger and older kids can do their own things as well as part of the family. - Penguin Encounter - While I like the idea and it is interesting to see them change the building from one exhibit to another, the top viewing area having only one entry/exit point is a serious design flaw. - 4 Looping waterslides, Aqua Loop - Which have a great operational record and most people I know complain they will not go on them again due to injuries received from the slides. - 3 pay per play attractions at W'n'W - Pay per play? Seriously? Is this like toll roads where they didn't actually have the money to cover the purchase so it will be paid off over time by people paying to use it? - A amped up Halloween Fright Nights with our first set of Franchised Mazes - Which are still being horribly oversold from comments of people I know that have been. - Illuminate - New 4D Movie Journey to the Centre of the Earth - As mentioned in another thread by someone else, a cut down version of a poor film to make a decent 4D experience. However I personally enjoy this experience. - New 3D Movie Happy Feet - Yet to see as I have no interest but sure families with young children would love it. - The lair, new exhibit at Dreamworld - Which saw White Lions while their exhibit elsewhere was being refurbished. What has been in there since other than the tigers? - The wedgie new water slide for WWW - TOT II - Have not been on this since it became TOTII. Yet while we were seeing all this unravel this years new Attractions and Events were being put together. You can't sit there and tell me that your atleast a little satisfied by what our parks are doing with what they possibly can. Quite your complaining!!! Added my comments along side yours to show I don't simply bitch and whinge about everything our parkz do. Yes they have made some fantastic additions over the years, I have never said they haven't. What I have been saying is along the lines of Themeparknut2011's comment. The recent influx of rollercoasters into our parkz is creating a coaster overload feel. I am and have always been a shows and themeing over rides person, always will be. While I am really looking forward to the themeing that will be put alongside GL, I am not excited about the coaster itself.

The pulsing LEDs on the front are pretty pointless unless they running this in the dark. That was my thought the second I saw them. Why did I not post it. Cos this is the response most times I express my opinions. Again, as always, I have to explain myself. Never said I hate the parkz. I like if not love them. Never been a fan of coasters. There is a difference. 70% is not everyone is it? Wasn't going to say it but everyone here dislikes my opinions anyways so might as well... I have always wished they updated the Movie Magic Sound Stage Tour instead of ripping it out to add another coaster. I hated when they took out a nice flat family ride (Gremlins) and added another coaster. I don't think that the location chosen for this new coaster is the best idea. I hate that Seaworld covered up the small bit of water that actually warranted the bridge being there to put in a coaster. I hate that Dreamworld moved the Model T Fords to the back of the park to put in a coaster. I hate that Wet n Wild, a park that is about waterslides and attractions put in a coaster. These are my opinions and are just as valid as anyone elses here. Don't like it? Stick it.

"Everyone loves a roller-coaster and this is a cool coaster,'' she said. They need to look at a larger group for their opinion polls then...
