Man would be such a shame if they had to remove MDMC to fit a Fury 325 clone 🥹😂

Id be happy with a B&M anything tbh….I agree something with one or two decent airtime hills, although I wouldn’t complain if they put an invert in there! Id even take a clone!

Or they could just blow the entire budget on southern hemispheres first giga 😝

A simple solution is limit the Tail Whip hours to close at 4.30…. done

What about an interactive Bluey dark ride like Toy story midway mania at Disneys California Adventure. I appreciate JL was a bit of a flop but when its done properly these types of rides are freaking amazing. But in essence, i concur, any bluey themed dark ride would be a smash hit. Another thought, what about a high speed slot car dark ride like Journey to the centre of the earth in Japan? Of course this ride would not be a bluey ride because 90% of the target audience wouldn’t be able to ride it. But I did think they could make it themed around the Eureka mine ride, giving a nod to Dreamworlds heritage and hitting that nostalgia button

If Dreamworld want to try and compete with MW they simply need to take some risks and that might mean really delivering on some significant and unique attractions, at least one needs to be a major thrill ride and at least one needs to be a Quality immersive family ride experience. Lets say an RMC raptor (which is some sort of southern hemisphere record breaker) and a Bluey themed dark river ride. That would be my realistic wish list. If I was no holds barred dreaming, I would ask for the Southern Hemispheres first Giga lol, but I cant see DW having the space or the budget for one. Also need to consider that one or more of these ‘significant attractions’ could be WWW additions, I really hope not but thats got some serious work to do to catch up with WnW

Its about time! The real estate it frees up is not huge, but hopefully room enough for some sort of new attraction. Would love to see some sort of immersive dark ride experience.

‘one of the largest wooden coasters in the world’ 😂 😂 😂

I am all for Adelaide getting a decent theme park but I think we will see snow in Darwin before we see a Disneyland in Adelaide.

Exactly what Movieworld needs, if the finished product is anything close to the artist impression they will hit a home run with this!

My one pass expires after 03-September, I knew it was too good to be true Getting beyond a joke now, cant use the covid excuse forever. A little transparency from the park would be nice for a change too.

Aussie World have included per ride prices on the website

MW lose Arkham Asylum, Dreamworld gain a B&M invert? One can dream lol

Im happy with Al La Carte style dining at Ricks Café but man that is a pretty uninspiring menu. Not really enough real food there to entice me to waste an hour of my day in the dining experience.

I am going to call BS. Here is the same bloke claiming he used to drive the Monorails. I think it would be very interesting if ‘guest services’ staff were the ones driving. I also find it hard to believe that SW would tolerate spilling the beans on such sensitive info on social media as a legitimate employee. It’s not hard to believe that SW might be giving up the ghost on the monorail system but I wouldn’t trust this info personally. I know its a decision that would not be made lightly so I will wait for a more credible source before I accept it.

Its about creating diverse attractions for all people. You like open air rides, others like dark rides for the immersive experience they bring. Literally every other ride in the park takes advantage of landscape but personally when I ride a ride I am not riding it to ‘look at the view’ I am riding it for the experience of the ride itself. Seen as every other ride is open air I am sure one dark ride to cater for people who have a dark ride preference isn't going to kill you. I should also point out that I suggested a dark ride because I was keeping the space in mind, they already have an indoor structure that could be utilised and the area is not all that large, you are probably not going to squeeze in another coaster and the park already has an abundance of flat rides. But honestly, anything would be better than looking at a rusting away flume track

I agree, I think they actually needed to do a post like this, there was a fair amount of backlash about WWF being closed again and I think the public needed a little more than just ‘scheduled maintenance’ to feel like MW had a good reason to stick to the schedule.

Not at my age 😂

I agree about the first part, there is already plenty of current and upcoming attractions that take advantage of this. But the immersive experience of indoor attractions is still great, I personally love walking into the penguins, or the jellyfish, or the underwater viewing of shark bay, its like walking into another world. Its about diversity and creating immersive experiences. An underwater adventure dark ride would be a smash hit imo.

I would love to see an interactive Bluey dark ride kind of like Toy Mania at Disney, but with less issues than JL. It would be a smash.

My moneys on new trains, the Monorail is pretty much the last remaining ‘heritage’ attraction left at Seaworld it would be a damn shame if it was decommissioned. On the topic of heritage attractions, has there been any whisper of future plans for Vikings Revenge yet? It just grinds my gears every time I visit the park, just sitting there using up all that wasted space. I heard a rumour that SW plan to get Intamin in to refurbish it, but I am not holding my breath. Personally it would be great to see the space used for a new precinct or a dark ride.

This is all that they have said, my guess is it will be similar to Luna Park prices which is $11.50 per ride per adult, hopefully they tier the prices and this is the upper end. It will definitely be better value to buy an unlimited pass but its good for those parents and grandparents that might only want to ride one ride.

This is interesting, I wonder if this promotion is a trial to see if the unlimited rides model is actually profitable for Aussie World, or if they are better off with a Luna Park type model

Possibly but obviously they cant state this as the reason because guests wouldn’t accept that

I honestly don’t know what the delay has been, the ride is good to go it has already been tested with staff members. My guess is they have had some delay due to insurance issues and now they are waiting for another peak period to make the most of the opening so my guess is next school holidays
