Well I did neglect the queue line and not superimpose it.

Good point, the vehicles do dock in the penguin area.

Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin would probably beg to differ, although technically there are no live penguins during the actual ride part. Plus it's not that great anyway.

Here's something I just whipped up.* *lies

Fairfax with a more balanced approach - http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/queensland/dreamworld-recovery-low-attendance-reflects-staged-return-to-full-operations-says-ceo-20170104-gtlzpm.html

Presumably the Rapids accident would have opened up an opportunity for Dreamworks to pull their license if they had really wanted to.

Couldn't check at least the previous page?

As in their toes? Otherwise your feet don't touch the slide.

First time I've heard Dreamworld being a competitor to Universal Singapore.

Why would Universal want the Dreamworks license in Australia?

@themagician, meet @MickeyD.

Naive question. If they're waiting for a part, why would they be doing testing?

VRTP are on a roll.

You can look forward to the theming update but also be disappointed with their decision to reopen the ride in its current state.

What if they added some Gremlins and a Beetlejuice...

Not even close to the same thing. The precinct does not enhance the ride experience.

Got no issue with them replacing the theming. But if they're going to make wholesale changes, keep the ride closed during it. Or at the very least, warn guests first.

Wow. That's dreadful. Is the audio still playing @joz?

Was rough compared to the ones in the States that I've been on (eg. Manta). And that's pretty much every coaster in HK/SG...

Fairly concentrated list, ignoring the locals - Big Grizzly Mountain Runaway Mine Cars Battlestar Galactica: Cylon Battlestar Galactica: Human Space Mountain Revenge of the Mummy The Dragon Hair Raiser (rough as guts for a B&M...) RC Racer Mine Train Arctic Blast

MW - I'm yet to ride DD because it's never operating, but the area is themed well. Good to see amenities have been refurbished. Update to WWF was a bit underwhelming. But all made up for by the Star Tour being a big highlight. SW - went backwards. Nice roof though. DW - annus horribilis.

It was getting on in weeks.

Hope & a prayer or nudge nudge wink wink?

Other thought - the spacing of these events just got worse. Hopefully they come up with something new around autumn/winter.

Isn't this destroying the value of the memberships then? Oh wait, $20 entry. Hmm...
