  1. ^I constantly notice the spider webs in WWF queue. They really should clean them up. It makes me think I'm at Dreamworld - but then I notice the water is clean
  2. The current song is Scooby Doo Where Are You by MxPx
  3. I would like to see a complete revamp of "Scooby's Party Room". How about a new song like this one and lighting effects. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTBwpp50r9E
  4. So they are replacing a spinning ride with a spinning ride. Last year they replaced laser tag with laser tag. I'm just waiting till they replace Mine Ride with Mine Ride, and Cyclone with Cyclone 2. At least Village replace old attractions with something completely different.
  5. That 1 green laser that worked great in the morning wasn't working as well when I rode it later. I guess Scoobys not partying anymore?
  6. I don't want to see Tijuana Taxies go! It is the last original ride. It's good to see kids still enjoying it today. I rode it (very badly) once as a kid. On a later visit in the 90's I actually drove very well (with a broken arm ! I don't think "Mini Kids Driving School" is a great idea though. Besides Tijuana Taxies there also are kids dodgems. Tweety's Carousel was fenced off but I think it is just for maintenance. The Road Runner Rollercoaster viewing area was roped off. I'm sure this will be the entry to the new attraction like it was for LTRR.
  7. The world's most expensive sausage rolls and pies @ Movie World Also what a rip off for 1 day entry nowdays. For $10 more online you get a years entry! Also 3 days $99.99?
  8. A door was left open at the side of the old LTRR and I saw what looked like a car track getting built. A lot of work is going on at the moment but it looks like "Mini Kids Driving School" is going ahead Sorry about the picture not showing anything but that's what I saw.
  9. Something is getting built at Wet n Wild. I saw a digger as I went past. Superman Escape is getting a fresh paint job...
  10. Was on it today. Only 1 green laser and the music was quieter than normal. It was very smoky at the exit in the morning. I wish they would restore it back how it used to be.
  11. They should bring the Rapid Ride back to how it used to be. This is a video I put together showing the theming in 1987... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v836YGBAxp0 There also used to be some dinosaurs in the tunnel. I recall a large T-Rex.
  12. Every school holiday the parks hire seasonally. They usually advertise on Seek. I had seasonal work at both Dreamworld and Movieworld in Food and Beverage for 3 weeks each. Food & Bev hire the most staff. Both times I worked at the parks new rides opened (Claw and Superman Escape).
  13. Also they would need lighting on the theming or you won't see anything. But I'm sure all theme parks don't operate water rides at night. Dreamworld don't.
  14. Movie Worlds night events are so overcrowded it would take a long time to get everyone out. Lets hope a raging fire doesn't start...
  15. I don't think they are able to operate water rides at night. Dreamworld never open the Rapid Ride or Log Ride at night. One reason may be because the sun is not out you won't dry off and may get sick.
  16. The Mushroom Ride(aka Log Ride) is so very old and poorly themed could also use some love. As well as the Drive Around A Tin Shed Ride (Vintage Cars) with no theme at all. At least whatever ever the Big 9th thrill ride is it will be better than Reef Diver. Unlike Movie Worlds and Sea Worlds latest ride replacements being worse that the predecessors (Storm Coaster < Bermuda Triangle, Batman Adventure > Justice League)
  17. It probably will be another enterprise type ride just more faster. They did replace laser tag with laser tag last year...
  18. I'm sure the Big 9th thrill ride will be an incredible disappointment. Dreamworld should really try to clean up the park. What is with that river now it's so gross! They should just name it "Shrek's Swamp"
  19. Dreamworld need to build a new coaster first then give Cyclone a much needed makeover. (Otherwise there will not be any proper coasters open at Dreamworld). I think a new well themed queue building is needed since now days the emergency exit is used. Something simular to the way Tower of Terror is (without the turbines!). Also new train and name. A complete re-theme.
  20. They could do with the fire in winter. Otherwise riders will freeze!
  21. As I said before an all day any locker system is what Movie World and Sea World need. They are going to keep on building new rides requiring locker hire since they are making so much money this way. I wouldn't mind paying up to $20 for an any locker system. The fact is you only are hiring 1 locker at a time in a location you're at. They can add locker areas near Wild West Falls (since some people don't want to get there bags wet and your not allowed to leave them on the platform) and Scooby Doo (it's a lot easier riding without your bag between your legs). Even better would be make it not charge before you hire but charge you when you end hire the amount you used and pay it with Paywave to get your stuff. They could charge something like $1 per hour. That way you only pay for what you use.
  22. ^They look a lot better than the ones at Movieworld at the moment. The red and blue lockers will look great at Superman. "Note, coin and credit card payment methods". If all you need is a quick tap of your credit/debit card you don't need to carry coins. Like we all say Movieworld (and Sea World) need to create an all day any locker system. I'm happy to pay $10 - $15 for the convenience. Movie World is so poorly laid out with all day lockers in the middle of the park and the one ride that requires locker hire at the front (with a convenient gift shop at exit - dispite the fact that your not allowed ANY loose items). By the way do you really need a locker for Superman Escape? There is a lot of space at the top of the lockers, you can always throw your bag up there for free. But not very secure.
  23. The current locker hire process is very slow. Expecially when the touch screen is unresponsive. I love the wristband system at the waterparks. Fast and easy locker hire.
