If I'm being honest, I'd still rather DW lower budget and "cringer" style of marketing over VRTP's more sterile and corporate style of marketing because I believe it better appeals to the general audience being marketed to when compared to VR's marketing that's very safe and overproduced and has obviously gone through too many branches of PR and management.

Only compliment I’ll give is that the new projection mapping for the arch on event nights doesn’t look too bad.

I’d be surprised if the sky coaster was touched anytime soon with Village already trying to keep costs down as much as possible.

I also wonder if those BOH facilities to the left of the Exhibition Centre could also be moved away from that space to where Dreamworld's non theme park developments will be built leaving DW the ability to use that plot of land along with kickback cove and some of Gold Coasters plot for a new ride or two.

Never heard the 95 preshow tracks until now. Probably one of the best tracks I have heard from an Australian park, gives me Legend of Zelda vibes.

Anyone willing to cough up $10,000 can now buy the Thunder Lake Stunt Show ski ramp off of FB Marketplace.

With how often SE is going down for extended maintenance every year it’s definitely the next ride to go for new investment at MW. I suggest getting as many rides as possible now before it’s too late.

When I last went on JR a few days after it reopened, the entire main queue starting from the split point past the snake was blocked off and everyone was funnelled through the express line. Netting all the indoor theming there must of been why it was blocked off in the first place.

My woodie dreams are more of an unrealistic wish to be able to ride a woodie that doesn't give me a mini migraine when I get off it more than anything else.

An Airtime machine like a woodie or something akin to a hyper or giga would be really nice to have and they would have a good amount of land back there to do one at a similar length or longer then ST at least. I would also love some interaction between the rides within the land ala a coaster going around a water ride. It can look great and would do well in adding kinetics to the land.

As a Water Ride fanatic, I’d kill for any kind of water ride at dreamworld. I understand the connotation reasons why they’d wouldn’t want to but I think now their reputation as positive as it is again, it wouldn’t be impossible to introduce something not made in house with someone like Mack or WhiteWaterWest that wouldn’t cause a huge amount controversy while having great theming.

Quite a bit early to start a thread on this but thought it’d be good for speculation now. Dreamworld Announced a brand new land to come after LMM with no other specifics beyond that. I don’t expect this land until at least 2029-2031 but it’s fairly obvious it’ll take over Rocky Hollow and potentially Blue Lagoon if that land is not being used by DW’s other new developments. Personally I’d love to see a more out there theme for this land whether fantasy or science fiction to provide something different to the other lands across the park that are more grounded and realistic and really lean into the idea of something fictional where a lot of creative theming can be done.

Just because you and people you know don't care about the effect of AI doesn't mean that a lot of others don't. Considering the top liked comments on DW Instagram post on the announcement are disappointment at the use of AI, it would seem a good majority do actually care about them using AI and how that reflects on them as a business.

Nice to hear of the new land up next. Expecting that one to be taking over Rocky Hollow and hopefully Blue Lagoon which would amount to a good amount of space for some killer rides, shops and food locations.

If there was a forthcoming show surely they’d just say something along the lines of “Thunder Lake Stunt Show is closing August 31st to make way for an exciting new show coming soon!” Pretty concerning they only vaguely mention ski lakes future.

I have similar doubts considering obvious budget cuts that have been happening with events like the DC superheroes event but also there’s been slight improvements within the park with more statues and theming pieces. This makes me curious if the corporate shakeups due to the embezzlement situation within village has given way to a change in priorities in regard’s to theming compared to the last decade or so.

Movie World has confirmed part of the most recent maintenance was to upgrade the theming’s operating system and that additional theming will come online in the next few months but nothing specific as of now.

Ocean Parade and Rocky Hollow are the really the largest problems with Dreamworld as of now so I hope they can get around to them and try make it less of a hodgepodge and dead end after Lost Mine Mayhem.

Excavation works now happening on the other side of the train line closest to Main Street, curious what was under there relating to Motocoaster that had to be dig up? (Credit to Theme Park Ogre)

I do think it's really scummy to silence people over information that's already available on a public website anyone could access and find the info. A legally obtained leak like this would only help marketing at the end of day with the increased word of mouth that comes from any bit of info that proves new additions are coming sooner or later.

I definitely see Village just not giving two shits about the area and chucking a cheap ride there and calling it a day but a man can dream.

If they were to go to town demolishing the whole area tomorrow I’d I want to see one of two things done to DC Villains. One thing I’d want to see them do is tie it back into the western area as it was for decades and put absolutely anything remotely decent in the showstage that at least makes some use out of such an under utilised building that should of been taken proper advantage of for a ride or a new western show as soon as Maverick closed. The other idea i would love is for them to tie it into Scooby considering its right next to the ride and the first thing you see exiting the shop. I don’t particularly if it would be Spooky Island or Coolsville but I would love to see a stunt show with Mystery Inc solving a mystery and unmasking a villain inside the showstage as well. There’s a few ride ideas they could probably barely fit in where doomsday squatted but putting a permanent use to the show stage is one of the main things I want to see from MW in the next decade and putting a show or small dark or flat ride in there would be ideal personally.

This is their solution to that (Credit to TPO)

Surprisingly some new theming has been put in place on WWF with new text adorning the structure on top of the mountain. (Credit to lukey_boy_90)

It's really nice to see all the changes and upgrades that's happened across the park since December (Added seating and theming, audio fixes, jet washing etc.) I really hope this means someone is now in charge who actually cares about the place. The road runner stuff is pretty bad though and I do hope they get around to it next maintenance period or sooner.
