Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster refurb
@pushbutton oh I agree with you, but when I went on the ride a week before it closed, the chains in the castle queue area weren’t even fixed in place, and if you slightly knocked it, they fell out

Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster refurb
Went through some past photos, and comparing the new vs old paint job, it now looks so much better and much more fitting with the castle Holefully they plan to pressure clean the extended queue floor and path areas around it, because they really need it. And hopefully they also replaced/fix all of the queue railings, especially inside. Because a lot of them just fall over when slightly touched

The extended queue area is now also getting some work done, and it might just be the lighting, but it seems the queue building has had a repaint too (Photo TPSN)

Singapore trip - planning tips?
As said, I also wouldn’t recommend staying on Sentosa, because the tram isn’t on the MRT line, so it’s an additional ticket purchase

The night show that @AlexB mentions is the Crane Dance show I said about. Highly recommend

Singapore trip - planning tips?
I went to Singapore last year for 4 nights and managed to do everything you did and a bit more. I went at the beginning of June, and only had a couple moments of rain. But prepare yourself it is very hot, all year round. Based off google, the months with least amount of rain days are Feb, March and June. 2. I would suggest 6 to 7 days, to be able to do everything you have listed. And just plan to do the major attractions on a weekday. The day trip to Legoland Malaysia is possible too. 3 and 6. The best, cheapest and easiest way to get around is to use their public transport. The MRT network is awesome (trains and buses), and you can get to all attractions using it. You can get a 3 day tourist pass for $20, and that’s unlimited transport. You can get it at the airport and some of the larger stations. So you buy it, and then after 3 days just buy another 2-3 day pass. Apple and Google Maps has the public transport for Singapore built into them, so you can easily figure out how to get everywhere using them. For attraction websites, just google what you want. For anything on Sentosa Island, just google that name and all the info for Universal, aquariums, etc are on there. Note that transport to Sentosa is a seperate ticket though, but you can just walk to the island 4. You’ll be able to get all 3 of those zoos done in one day, but yes definitely a long day. And universal will just be one day too. You probably won’t need fast passes either. But if you were wanting to see the parade, it’s only on certain days. 5. Everything you listed you’ll love. Be sure to check the Gardens by the Bay out at both day and night. And when you go to Sentosa, there is a Crane Dance show on the water at 8pm every night, highly recommend that 6. I would recommend looking at the ibis hotels. I’ve been twice and stayed with them both times. They have 3 hotels, one is right next to the train station, but costs more, the next is a few hundred metres walk to the station, and the 3rd is about a 1km walk, but is the cheapest and has a pool.

In the email for FN they state ‘House or Kain’, but the website doesn’t have any more information about it just yet

I also liked it, but actually thought the scene after the FN logo was a bit funny, which isn’t really what you want

Usually they do something like this to inspect for rust and the structural integrity of the track

Over the past week, all the paint work on the track of the Surfrider at WnW has been removed, and now it’s just a plain white track.

Theme Park Maintenance 2018
In regards to the fencing around the MW carpark. I am going to assume it’s for Rivals maintenfe, because it’s not fenced alongside the road, and it is literally just in line with the rides footprint. The type of machinery that’s onsite to, id say it’s for inspecting the track of rivals

Seems there might be a technical issue, or members will be emailed a code. It will be best to contact the park directly and see what’s happening

Fright Nights 2018
I did some googling on ‘House of Kain’ I couldn’t find anything about it, so I am assuming that it’s MWs own maze concept. Unless anyone recognised the name?

I thought he was the COO for VRTP and the GM for SW Resort, not the park

Movie World November 2017 Improvements
I think the roof was a great idea, just poorly executed. The columns weren't placed well down Main Street, and should've been installed behind the facades. That would've kept the magic there, and still serve its purpose

Surely 'flying theatre' is the best way to describe it, and in reports/publishings about it they should mention it is similar to what Disney have.
