its in the best place i think. because it is a longish ride it probably would look out of place anywhere else in ocean parade. it is hidden away enough so that it doesn't look out of place, but can still be seen when not right next to it.

I'll do my opinion then: Thrill Rides: Pandamonium - You have to have a very strong stomach for it. It is good how they have the moderate version of the ride. I don't think its anything special though.BuzzSaw - It may be short and not hold many people, but I think it's an enjoyable ride, not one I would go on over and over again.The Tower of Terror 2 - One of my favourites at the park. A ride I would go on a couple of times if the queue wasn't long (it usually is though).The Cyclone - Needs an upgrade. The track isn't bad, but Its just very uncomfortable and for people who are 6ft (like myself), there isn't much room for your legs.The Giant Drop - Another favourite. Obvious really.Wipeout - Been on it once and didn't feel to good after so I can't provide my opinion really. Except I felt like I was always going to fly out of my seat.The Claw - Spin and Spew. Good capacity though.Motocoaster - Shouldn't be in this list. Uncomfortable. Kids to like it, but i don't see many want to ride it again. Family rides: Shockwave - It may not be very comfortable but its an enjoyable family ride. Spin and Spew after a few rides.Rocky Hollow Log Ride - Old and needs upgrading or something. It has pointless thumbing (dinosaur/rhino (i don't know) and mushrooms). The part where you get on the boat needs a shade sale or something. AND ALL THAT CHEWING GUM ON ONE OF THE WOODEN BUILDING. JUST CLEAN IT. It doesn't take much. (Honestly the ride could just be ripped out and a new log ride could be put in its place. But they probably wont do that. good way to cool down though.Thunder River Rapids Ride - Popular and can get quite wet, which is good. I wish they would get ride of the photo part at the start of the ride. Just put two camera (one on each side) half way around the ride. Only tourists want to wait and get there photo taken. They should also upgrade the theming in the cave.Reef Diver - What the original forum was about. I think its another spew and spin ride. It's old and should be replaced. They have got the room from the old octopus ride as well.Avis Vintage Cars - In its old location it was better and more popular. The new location just needs some theming. Tunnel, bridge, river to cross over, etc. Kids Rides: Wiggles World: I think its still popular and a great area for younger kids. Well themed. I think maybe another ride would be good.Dreamworks: All the areas are very well themed and contain a range of rides for a range of ages. Other:Evilution - I haven't been since it opened so I can't comment on it.Flowride - Good funRedline - What I've heard its not worth doing. It needs an upgrade and should be moved to near mdmc. It has no point of being in the ocean parade.

They could create the lake into a ride, similar to the Jaws one in Universal Studios. Obviously not Jaws, but something that fits Dreamworld. It's just an idea, probably won't happen.

I agree. What I would like to see at WWW is a lazy river, but it should an extra route there are small rapids, just for extra fun. I would like to see another tower with 2 or 3 slides on it. They need something new that isn't at Wet n Wild Gold Coast. Maybe ones that are seen at WNW Sydney. Such as the Half Pipe (I know it is similar to the Kamikaze, but it has more too it) and the typhoon.

Even though the Buzz Saw is low capacity I think it is an enjoyable ride. I'm not a fan of the Claw because it always makes me feel sick, so I don't ride it, but it is a very popular ride and one most people enjoy. But the rest I agree with you.

Well what would you say their last decent NEW ride was?

It would cost a lot, but like we have said they could just fill it in until the start of wiggles world. Most of the rides and attractions are placed and themed around a specific area, except mdmc. Why have one ride with a theme which doesn't relate to anything else. I think the Motorsport area would be a good idea. U doubt that they would do it though. I don't think Dreamworld will bring back the paddle boat, but they need to put something in the water so it stays cleaner.

That would be alright. They could call the area 'Motorsport Extreme'. (Just an idea) then they could move the v8 simulator and add another ride (I don't know what though).

I don't think they would be out another coaster there. Or an indoor ride because of the lands shape. That's just what I think. I don't know what they could put on the island. They won't fill in the lake because it costs to much and it fits in with the wildlife area.

Maybe the area could be themed around motor sports. So mdmc doesn't look out or place. Then the V8 Supercars simulator could also be moved into a appropriately themed area.

If they were going to create a new area I don't hunk they would fill in the lake. I think thy should build a bridge to the island and add more animal exhibits. Just an idea.

If dreamworld were to replace this ride then I'm sure they will just rip it all out. I can't think of what they would put there though. I would be quite happy if they just put another mine ride though, providing it provides a different experience.

That would be just stupid. I mean like you would still have to book like for the SkyClimb at Sea World, but its free.

I know it says that but it's summer. The season when everything is meant to open. They are just making excuses. It said that most of 2013. It isn't popular then. Maybe if they didn't charge people for it (I think it was $5 or $10). I know it isn't much, but it may be more popular if there wasn't a cost. And now that the constrictor is there, i think they would need to create another path to the zipline.

On the wet n wild website it says the Zipline is closed. I know this ride has been open, but not for very long. Why is it always closed. Is it just because it isn't popular or is it because of the constrictor now?

There is no reason why they shouldn't get it. I just personally don't think they will. I could be wrong though.

Sorry, even I'm confusing my self. They aren't the same.

I know they aren't the same, I'm just saying that i don't Dreamworld would get a skyscreamer because the park already features a tower ride (giant drop). Why have two rides that both provide the same. That's just the way I'm seeing things.

I was referring to the giant drop gazza

I really hope this is true then. If there is going to be a coaster I hope it features something the Gold Coast hasn't seen before.

I don't think dreamworld would get a skyscreamer because they have already got a tower ride and the sword swing in the dreamworks area.

Maybe they are making some minor changes to the ride. Eg: Repaint, new seating.

I don't mind if they get rid of reef diver as it is quite old now. I don't know what they would put here, but they need to otherwise there aren't many rides in ocean parade.

I know this doesn't relate to this show, but I didn't see any point in starting a new forum for this. Movie World is now playing 'Journey 2 the Mysterious Island in 4D"
