I don't think you understand the basic purpose of pool fencing. Good thing the designers do.

You're cooked

I honestly thought more regular park goers would have been all over it. Logged in here to see the last update was some time ago so figured a text update was better than nothing 🤷‍♂️

Went today and was surprised to see how far construction had come. It is assembled with the chairs in place.

It would be if you were living in there...

Would you let your child climb onto the roof of a car at Movie World? If you did and your child fell would you blame the park? It's 100% bad parenting and crazy that people are trying to make excuses for it.

I was at the park today and the new train is doing the rounds with massive bags of water to simulate guests. Can't wait to ride!

There's been no mention since September last year. I would think that it was settled for a sum of money and kept quiet. As ridiculous and crazy as the claim is, legally Movie World would have been responsible. It's a crazy world we live in. Thankfully most members of the public just move on with life after something like this occurs without taking legal action...

Do you think they did this to prevent this from happening again?

It doesn't need to, but if Green Lantern and Superman Escape match their known colours than one would assume the trend would continue.

Obviously the right colour scheme for a Wonder Woman coaster would be Red. As this colour is already in use by Superman Escape it couldn't be used. If this is a Wonder Woman coaster, I would expect an announcement very soon to tie into the films release in cinemas currently. If we hear nothing, I would think we can rule Wonder Woman out...

A time lapse of the construction would be excellent, I doubt anyone thought that far ahead though...

I thought the commercial was great and seems to reflect 90% of the consensus on this forum. The front page article does no better for the parks then the usual media beat up every time a ride breaks down. Dreamworld is going back to their roots and essentially the ad is showing a 'Dream World' of sorts. Richard Wilson has taken the commercial far too literally and I get the impression he wouldn't be too fun at parties. Maybe we should show clips of people lining up for rides or simply staring at animals through glass in order to convey realism. I'm sure that would sent the public to Dreamworld in droves.

Wouldn't the Gold Coast's tallest attraction be Skypoint?

You're correct. After all, that's what makes them so thrilling. If they weren't scary and dangerous, they wouldn't be wasting their time or money. It's the thrill of being close to 'danger' but not really. So when something unexpected does occur, it breaks the 'illusion' of safety to them - where in fact it's not the case, the ride was and is designed around safety.
