DC Rivals HyperCoaster Announcement
Maybe they just don't know the final costs exactly yet. I imagine that everything would well and truly be locked in place, but unexpected expenses may pop up, so they may not comment on its price until it opens. I'd say they will push hard to get it ready for Fright Nights, with a soft opening last September. This would look really cool running at night, especially if the train features lights

DC Rivals HyperCoaster Announcement
Love they despite us waiting for quite a long time for all this, they just announced everything at once, spent time to do up a video showing it all off. At first I wasnt a massive fan of the name itself, but the theme/story of it I really do like, and a worthy theme for the attraction. As said, it really is a battle between joker and batman, with mentions of other characters throughout the queue/pre-lift hill. In regards to the name, it isn't exactly something that people could say as iconic, like how superman, green lantern, etc is. But if you say 'rival' to me at this stage it doesn't instantly make me think of the coaster. But I do think it suits the theme they are going for. The stats are great, and the speed this will get to will br insane through those twists and turns. And I really like how why've highlighted key moments, such as the non-inverting loop (something the GP may not be familiar too) and calling it a hypercoaster in its offical name. Very glad they delt with the colour debate. And we now know why there are four queue lanes, forward, backwards, fast track, single rider. The backwards would be insane, and definitely would only be for the real brave ones. I will try backwards out, but probably not until a few rides going forward. I don't think they need to have a full train backwards or even more seats, because some people prefer to ride normally from the back, and it may slow queue times down, especially if one of more popular than the other. The joker head at the top of the lift hill is a very cool touch, and if the mouth moves, that would be awesome. And really glad they are putting a foot bridge in. I assume you will walk between the posts which didn't have the fence installed, will be a perfect place for some photos of the coaster. Overall, very very excited for this, very glad it's been announced, and from the hype everyone and most news pages on FB have posted about it, the GP are also very excited too. MWs FB post alone has gotten 1.1 million views so far.

Star Tour All Access Pass - Behind the scenes at Movie World
The question is whether there would be enough room for people to all stand at the top safely, my guess from the stair pieces we've seen so far is there won't be, therefore they never could. That's what makes the AA lift climb possible is because of the large platform at the top for people to safely all stand

When I was there last week, some steel framing (which looked like a part of a crane) was arriving, and is now being stored on the road behind the shelters. Don't know if it is for a crane or not, just thought I'd add this.

Checked out the area today, looks very nice and open. Couple of people were being served when I was there and the food looked very nice. This is also now the exit from DW, and they've blocked the LEGO Store entrance from the park with one of the figures. But can be entered from inside the Parkway- Tiger Island Refurbishment - Dreamworld 2016

These containers have Mack crates in them, crane is moving more supports onto site. Couple smaller supports behind fence installed for lift hill- Trip advice - Gold Coast in October
Couple of things. Firstly, October 24-28 is Tuesday to Saturday. Secondly, it shouldn't be too busy around that time. And thirdly, if you can, why not come a little earlier or later so you can enjoy Fright Nights.- New Night Parade for Movie World.

Here are some of the TV Ads for these campaigns BuzzSaw TOT2 Claw Doomsday Storm Green lantern Superman Escape- Movie World Hypercoaster - colour, theme and announcement speculation
I think TOT2 was a pretty good campaign too- Dreamworld Night Events Return
I've found the trick is to position the wings opposite ways before you even start, and then once you get released you already have a swing. Then once you've swung as far as possible, you change the wings over, until the swing is complete, and then you just repeat until you're spinning. Then you just hold the wings in place. A lot of people change the wings position to quickly and that's why they can't get it to spin. I really think they should play a video or have some images in the queue to show people how to do it properly, if they do want to spin- Theme Park Maintenance Schedules 2017
When Superman first opened I remember there were queues over 2 hours long, so will be interesting to see how long they are for this ride, especially if it opens in the September holidays- New Night Parade for Movie World.

Superman Escape opened just before the Superman Returns movie was released and those two things are incomparable. The movie wasn't that good, while the ride is fantastic. SDSC is a great ride and is based off the film, which wasn't that great. So whether the theme is WW or not, if the movie is or isn't good, it won't effect peoples perspective on how good a ride is.- Doomsday Destroyer - reviews and feedback
