Thanks for sharing! Super excited. Nice hearing the trains properly for the first time, too. Sounds like a Gravity Group coaster all right π Edit: Here's another pic of the legs from π£πΎπππππΊππππ π£πΊπ½ π π£πΊπππππΎπ

New Kids Ride at Movie World - April 2023
I wonder if the old Marvin ride site will be used at all for the new ride. Maybe part of the queue?

Exciting stuff! The concept art for TNT's entrance looks great. Never been before but the park is definitely on my radar now for future trips.

Here's a pic dump from Wednesday Dummies were in but saw no testing Lots of greenery waiting to be planted Slight theming clash with Nick land Like how the Trident wall is looking! The statues are pretty big Half of a even BIGGER statue (later) the crane is up The BIG Statue half is getting moved Looks like he's being installed by Trident Lots of Trees have been planted by Levy No sign of testing on either ride but I don't think it will too long now...

Dreamworld's new IP applications 2022
(can't edit my other post) Had a looky and found what I was referring to: "The kids love the wildlife area, Slater tells Young, but, she says, the rides for young children are looking a bit tired. βWeβll have some news on that soon,β says Yong. βWe just signed a new deal with The Wiggles and you can imagine weβre going to do a lot with that.β Yong is close-lipped about the rides to be announced before Christmas, apart from saying theyβll be family focused, themed and βhighly immersiveβ. βI visualise Grandma or Grandpa riding with a young grandchild and having a very good experience, as opposed to big, scary thrill rides. Thatβs part of what we do, but the next few things are very much about family and intergenerational experience.β Source: https://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/they-were-very-dark-days-inside-story-dreamworld-boss-reveals-how-close-theme-park-came-to-closure/news-story/64593ab8fd18fefee06bf2a0c88f7878 Interesting...

Maybe Dreamworks land as a whole is becoming Kenny and Belinda's? If it's a "dreamland" you can easily keep the jungle/fantasy/chinese theming for it. Also, didn't they say a couple months ago that Wiggles World was getting a refresh? Retheme ABC to a new, larger Wiggles World for the toddlers and have Dreamland be for the kids.

I wouldn't put it past them opening Trident and Leviathan at different dates. The plan was always three stages for New Atlantis after all (before the delays). The date itself is interesting though. Guessing it's not the release window but instead a period of staff previews / technical rehearsals.

Just like Village's spiel for Batman Legacy: "Largest official Warner Bros. Batman exhibition in the Southern Hemisphere!"

Scooby's is great for sure, but it's gone down in points for me since they repainted (?) the castle and went with the 2D ride sign. It looks so much better in that picture!

So does Levy take the prize for the best ride entrance in Australia?

Happy Halloween 2022
Went to the event last night and yeah, the smell in the walkthrough was almost unbearable. Heard a few other people unhappy with it too. Kid behind us went: "Mummy, I can't breath!" They really need to get that sorted. Apart from that, had a good time!

Old Theme Park Pics
I might be misremembering but I'm pretty sure the sparks were taken out right after the fire. Same time they changed the ending scene right before the last drop (the older scene with the exploding barrel was so much better). Interesting! I'll have to pay attention to that next time I ride
