Is "technical delay" a new downtime excuse?

Can we please bring back the fountain?

If Big Brother does this right, this is essentially just IRL Twitch. Edit: Some quick Twitch stats thanks to Google AI (so... very possibly wrong) 2.5 million people tune into the Twitch at any given moment Japan and Australia have a combined userbase of 4.1 million Twitch users, making up 1.6% of the platform In Australia, Twitch users are predominantly in the 18-34 age group, with 75% being male So if those details are anywhere near accurate, there is a big gap in the female "twitch" market. BB doesn't need to get an influencer onboard with the cast, but they likely will need them onboard talking about the show

Honestly, Movieworld might have wanted that. When you search Green Lantern Movieworld online you still get restuls for the major incident, and people being "stuck" might have pushed that off the first page of google results.

Pretty solid promo. "peoples day" is on the 13th for those in Brisbane and Ekka tickets need to be for the 14th or 15th. Ekka runs 9th > 17th

New character photo appearance confirmed

Honestly we need a drunk discussion thread anyway

.... what?

I personally go to my lawyers for Theme park discussion.

WB worked with Miramax which was founded by Harvey Weinstein, so theres monsters if you look.

They also had Harry Potter stuff. Turns out Movieworld swings both ways

At the end of Big Brother, when the house was opened up, it was the busiest attraction in the entire park. Being a walkthrough it was a massive people eater also. Big Brother did huge things for the park, along with the national advertisement. If Big Brother can re-capture the national attention, its something massively special. If its a flop like the recent previous years then .... thats the risk really.

As established earlier, it 10000% can not be Big Brother. Its impossible now. As of the recent video the only possibility now is Massive Brother.

potentially could be hidden in with King Claw stuff? Or Its literally just promo for King Claw? I dunno

DW wouldn't pay for it. the production company would build it.

Dude, you live in a world of extremes and absolutes. There is grey areas inbetween. You can be happy its not as shit, while still wanting more.

They also could just build a house out somewhere, and use the sound stage for Evictions and or if they bring back Friday Night Games.

Not sure it needs more lighting effects, but agree with you otherwise. Maybe a fire effect/fake fire effect

Dreamworld posted a short video of JR going from the turntable, forwards through the track and back to the turntable with Front, Rear and face cam of 2 riders. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DKVj-1jsOfq/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Pretty standard nothing much here, but it does have a not so subtle dig at their neighbours in the comment/description.

Pretty sure thats original themeing since Day 1

Probably your standard falling off, sticking arms out into the moving ride, tripping, slipping off the raised platform ect ect

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-05-21/movie-world-cleared-carousel-child-descalping-injury/105317156 Mr Holt said the carousel was immediately shut down after the incident and underwent a "hardcore engineering solution" before it was re-opened several months later. "Once the risk was reasonably foreseeable, Village Roadshow Theme Parks made it impossible for it to occur," he said. 'Haven't wanted to go back' Movie World attraction attendant Ruby Piakura, who was operating the carousel on the day of the incident, told the court she had worked on the ride for more than six months at the time. Ms Piakura said she had never seen a rider stand on a character before that day and had hit the emergency stop as soon as she realised something was wrong. Mr Randall says Queensland's theme park safety regulations are the most stringent in Australia. (ABC News: Steve Keen) Asked if she had seen a rider stand on a character since, she told the court that, while she continued to work at Movie World, she no longer operated the carousel. "I haven't wanted to go back to working on that ride," she said. 'Extremely surprised' Theme park ride safety consultant David Randall wrote the report that recommended plastic brushes be installed on the carousel. He told the court he had made the recommendation as an opportunity for improvement on the ride, not as a requirement for it to operate. He said plastic brushes were a tactile deterrent rather than a physical barrier, meaning even if they were installed on the ride, the boy's head could still have gone through them and into the machinery above. Movie World on the Gold Coast officially opened in June 1991. (ABC Archives) "I recommended the plastic brush be installed so that if a child reaches up into that area, they touch the brushes and pull their hand away," he said. Mr Randall said that, even with decades of experience in safety management, he did not identify a person standing on a carousel character as a foreseeable risk. "I was extremely surprised after the event, which is unusual for me, as I'd never considered that as an issue," he told the court. Movie World's Looney Tunes characters are popular with young visitors. (ABC Gold Coast: Dominic Cansdale) On the third day of the trial, Ms O'Connor told Ms O'Neill the prosecution had no further evidence to offer, and asked to withdraw from the case. "I think that is a responsible decision, given the evidence we have heard," Ms O'Neill said before she dismissed the charge against Village Roadshow Theme Parks. The theme park operator will now make an application for WHSQ to pay its legal costs in the case.
