  1. Based off that logic, they're re-doing the batman shop too, so it could be themed to him. What if everyone is wrong and it's themed to Ben and Jerry's? I mean that track colour just screams "ice cream", right?

  3. Could be gone for regular maintenance. Could be gone for repairs (bulk discount on bat products?) Could be gone in preparation for something else coming soon? Could be gone to be re-ulititised as coaster theming?
  4. Right, so everyone needs a day ticket, therefore everyone gets a VIP pass, therefore "10% off everything" just means standard price.
  5. How does a 2 year VIP pass only get you access to the park for one day?
  6. Also known as "anyone with half a brain". Evidently this does not seem to include VRTP marketing teams.
  7. Can someone get a photo holding up today's newspaper and another clock/watch in the photo, then complete and sign a stat dec to confirm all is true and accurate. That's the only way we can truly end #clockgate2017
  8. That's not how a democracy works?!?! I'd make a joke about demanding a refund for a service I don't actually pay for or have any control over, but then I realised I did pay for a membership so the joke just doesn't work now. So instead I'll just complain it took you longer than 24 hours to follow up on it.
  9. It would make for some pretty shitty reviews. .... I'll see myself out.
  10. The fence is gone from in front of it!
  11. Lol. Visually it looks great. When I go back, which will happen, but I keep delaying it with other holidays instead, I might ride it if it's still open around 2020/2021.
  12. https://www.humblebundle.com/store/promo/frontier-developments-spring-sale/ Planet Coaster is currently 25% off through humble bundle. ($33.74 USD / ~$45.70 AUD) On Steam it's currently $44.99 USD (~$60.94 AUD) Other locations which you may consider are coming in around $41 AUD, but they're kind of sketchy. We'll call them "grey market". So if you're after the game, I'd suggest HB being the way to go and keep things all above board.
  13. I don't know what the "best" coaster in the world was, but since @pushbutton never replied, I'll take it as favourite coaster. For me, of the rides I've ridden, hands down, surprise, surprise, it's Tatsu. Second would come in as Ghostrider at Knott's. To be honest, I'm not even sure why, I just remembered that I loved the ride.
  14. So are you asking about what we think is the "best" coaster in the world, or what our "favourite" coaster is?
  15. And compared to the shit they give away now, you can appreciate how welcome those Phantom comics were haha.
  16. You're right. You seemed to be suggesting building now and then not building anything for 15-20 years.
  17. Have you done any kind of business studies at all? And what about in 3-5 years when all those rides are "old" and people are over them? Or are you just expecting the public to go "oh, well 15 years ago they added all that new stuff, so we probably don't need anything new for a another good 5 years or so."
  18. Mainly because I'd really like to discuss something other than Ol' Pinky, it's never to early to discuss arguably the best night event of the year. With that said, lets talk maze and precinct IP. What we know so far: Fright Nights will return for 2017 (duh) There will be 4 mazes 2 mazes will be returning From Dusk Til Dawn Conjuring 2 There will be 2 new mazes One major maze One slightly lesser major maze Precincts will be back Panic rooms will return Ultimate Terror Tour will return Maze/UTT Locations: Purpose built shed #1 Purpose built shed #2 Likely: Dodgems (Aligns with scheduled maintenance) Likely: Show stage UTT - Likely: Scooby Doo queue (Scheduled maint 28/08 - 18/09) - would be enough time to close off half the queue and build a set like last time. Precincts IP: Mannequin (Reel Horror Film Festival 2016 winner) ? ? ? Precincts Locations: Fountain area towards Superman Escape Gotham stage Main street near the big screen/plaza Alley between AA and Scooby Maze IP: Conjuring 2 From Dusk Till Dawn ? ? ---------------------------------------------- Now, as far as mazes goes, following on from previous years, Movie World would be looking for an "Iconic" horror brand for at least one of the major mazes. Something that everyone's heard of and knows. In line with that reasoning, I asked a few people off-forum what the first movie/franchise was that came to mind when they heard "iconic horror movie". The results were: Psycho Halloween Friday the 13th Nightmare on Elm st Saw Chucky Evil dead Texas Chainsaw Massacre Exorcist Alien Scream The Shining Birds Freddy vs Jason Blair Witch Project I've crossed out the ones that have been done, or close enough to being done before. That said, there's some pretty good ideas among them. The other thing to consider when thinking about a maze theme is that Movie World love reusing their seemingly large selection of tree props. Which is fair enough, may as well make use of what they have to keep budget for other things. With that in mind, one of the mazes is going to need a nice outdoors style area.
  19. Misleading click-bait thread title is misleading and click-baity
