It would be nice to see something happen to China Town, instead of it just sitting there with a wall in front of it. They could build a new food stall/shop where the old queue was for LW. Maybe they could change china town into an alley way in gotham city (just an idea) just so it fits into the area and allow easier access to the ride, and SE.

I think we can say that Wild isn't happening anymore. I would say that me might hear some news about a new attraction/ride to be built on this land next year.

^I agree. Lately DW have mainly added flat rides. Their new ride will be a flat ride as well because of the space. I think they need to build something big in the Gold Rush Country. Has anyone been in the past couple of days and noticed any major work happening on the new ride and slide?

Here is the video of the NRL Footy Show riding the GD and BuzzSaw: http://www.jump-in.com.au/show/nrlfootyshow/videos/3656833473001/

I would agree and I didn't think Hillbilly Slasher 2 was overly scary either. What have the themes been in the past? I know last years was a Circus. In people's opinion what have been the best mazes of the years? (I had from friends that the Arkham Asylum and Freddy Kruger Mazes were really good.)

That really is a spin-n-spew ride and I hope it isn't that

Tonight on the NRL footy show they ride the GD and on the footage you can see a bar attached, as said by downunder196. My guess is that the cameras will be installed and tested during their maintenance in a couple of weeks. EDIT: They just played the footage and they had a camera attached to that bar. Camera was a a good angel and you could see the expressions on their faces. If they do the same for the public it will be good and worth the money.

I messaged Dreamworld about the idea of installing video cameras onto the Giant Drop and they said this: "We are close to doing exactly that! Great minds must think alike." Thats good news. I think it will be a great addition to the ride, I will be buying one when they are installed. Each side of the GD will be close for a week in August, so I would say they will be installed then.

This one:

I don't think a ride of this size would fit into the space reclaimed and I don't think this is the best way to show animals. But that's just me.

If you look at photos/videos of when the Paddle Boat and waterfall was running the river was pretty clean, not covered in moss And I think they have still got the towers where the camera's were sat; and they have still got the photo centre for it, it is just not longer used. If a camera could be installed on the ride, I think it would be a great addition.

Just out of interest, would it be possible to add cameras to the Giant Drop as done on the Batwing Spaceshot?

I think he is trying to say that the park looked a little runner down and needs a makeover in some areas. I think a few minor things DW need to now include: - Repaint The Claw - Clean River - Replace a few signs in MDMC I am sure there is plenty of other things I haven't included, but these are just a few minor things I have noticed. There are the obvious things that a few of us keep on saying like replace Eureka Mine Ride and give cyclone/log ride a makeover, but these are major changes that can't be done in a couple of weeks. Any other minor things that people think they need to do?

I thought last years Fright Night was great (it was the first time I had been). The Evil Dead and Walking Dead Mazes were great. The stunt/circus show was pretty good as well. The range of characters in main street was also great. I don't think they will reduce the price, but I would expect we will see the same number of nights as we ended up seeing last year. I'm sure the theme and mazes will change, but I do hope they have a Walking Dead Maze again.

I have seen him on Wipeout, Shockwave, BuzzSaw, Shrek-o-round and Gingy Flyers He was great on Wipeout and Shockwave. He really uses the microphones to his advantage and makes the ride more enjoyable.

Yes I have, every time I go I look out to see what ride he is operating. He always gets into all the rides, with his different voices and makes everyones day enjoyable.

I totally agree. It is great to see them repainting/changing signs to give them a fresh look. With the re-theming of Wipeout, and potentially another popular ride, maybe Dreamworld have had a change of thought and are starting to bring life back into the park.

Isn't an Air Race 8.2 basically the same as Pandaemonium (or are you being sarcastic?).

To the people who went last night, was AA open? EDIT: Just had a look at MW maintenance and the opening date of AA is yet to be confirmed.

I do hope that Dreamworld don't get a Powersurge. I see that as a ride that are at carnivals. It is at the Ekka and Gold Coast Show every year. I don't see it as a ride which should be in a theme park. I'm really hoping for something different, something that hasn't been seen on the Gold Coast before.

I'm sure there would be an adrenaline rush when riding it. I find POVs of rides don't always do them justice. Yes the video may not make it look great, but I'm sure if I went on it I would want to ride it again. Just my opinion though.

If that was the case, why don't they just remove them?

In this photo of yours, what are these pipe type things coming out of the wave? Are they for water to spray out?

They might do another coat of paint on the counter weights once it is all in place.

downunder196 is right. When I go to buy tickets I can pick these dates.
