  1. VR also own the distribution rights to Mad Max. Match made in heaven.
  2. Yeah but Sammy J is currenty touring his whole new show about The Phantom. Medium sized Australian Musical comedians is enough to base a ride off The Phantom hype right?
  3. This is honestly great. Normally your horrible spelling, grammar and sentence structure piss me off to no end but, wow. You have honestly reached new levels today making me think your whole account is just one massive troll.
  4. I thought all launch coasters had these sensors along the whole launch? Unless thats newer ones maybe, I just see a lot of sensors along launch parts of tracks.
  5. Max speed highly depends on drop angle and drop size. Because max height is 62m doesn't mean it will drop that 62.
  6. Then provided WPHS have approved the cross over procedure and training for the operator is sufficient then the fault lies with the operator and MW is in the clear. Legally anyway.
  7. General public may not know what a hypercoaster is but its definitely a term MW should use to market it by (if it is). Would you want to go on this Rollercoaster or would you want to go on this brand new Hypercoaster. One of those just sounds a lot more exciting than the other...
  8. Man you're spot on in it being all for marketing it differently. I honestly don't know much about the history of it all (apart from that 1 doco I saw on youtube) but I wouldn't be surprised if Arrow fronted the costs to increase the ride to over 200 to coin the term hyper, and create sales demand for this new "style" of ride. But I stand by them calling Hyper at 200 because it was a convenient number near to what they were building and rounded off nicely.
  9. I disagree. If they were based anywhere else they would have called their new "really tall, airtime hill and speed coaster" a hyper and set the limit at that new coasters height. In this case it happened to be 200ft. If the new coaster turned out was going to be 250ft they probs would have gone with that.
  10. yeah exactly, go diagonally across it! lets cover this tower in tracks from all sides!
  11. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but since Movieworld is now owned by Village Roadshow, not Time Warner, it would be much harder / expensive for the rights to just any 'WB' movie? As such they will use a licence they already have or purchase one which their parent company is already linked to? Someone on here mentioned Mad Max which would be perfect as Fury Road is produced by VR and Distributed by WB and a sequel is in the works.
  12. Marvel character but isn't owned by Disney. Owned by Fox currently. Also, still not going to happen. Although hes my favourite.
  13. I can't remember for GL but are we expecting all pieces to arrive at once? or over the course of the week?
  14. I think its more to do with the way you face. Superman your facing forwards and have a seat and headrest to support.
  15. Not so much keeping Tabs on but saw this recently. The park showing 2 bids from Vekoma and Intamin and getting fans / guests to "choose" (not sure if its actually choosing or saying which they would prefer). http://www.coaster101.com/2016/10/02/choose-energylandias-2018-mega-coaster-vekoma-intamin/ I find it funny how open parks are overseas about new attractions / future plans. I would love to see Dreamworld take this sort of approach with their next coaster.
  16. will probably get some form of fencing around it blocking it from normal viewing angles.
  17. I totally misread your post. Didn't realise the 2nd half was a quote. Your first sentence about it being a hoot totally makes sense now. I am also now hungry.
  18. Its a very basic layout. I wouldn't get overly excited by it, as that is just the boundary of works rather than a rough track. Fire exit/emergency exit / disabled access if there is stairs?
  19. But I wouldn't expect a huge amount of work this week with all the rain/storms predicted.
