  1. Its all a moot point anyway. Even if they DID have a license to use Harry Potter for a ride, the demands JK Rowling has for detail would price any such attraction way beyond what Movie World could afford.
  2. The kinetic energy and amazing efficiency that is that station never ceases to amaze me.
  3. What was being discussed was a visual representation of the phrase 'shit show'
  4. Well this post by @Fultre is about as ridiculous as they come. Nobody has BROUGHT DOWN the animation. All anyone has done is said it's great but not accurate to the finished coaster design. AND WHAT EXACTLY IS WRONG WITH THAT? There seems to be some strange thing here that nobody can say ANYTHING negative about anything/one without some group of crusaders coming out with pitch forks. Reality check, not everything in he big bad world is positive and 'you're wonderful' all the time. And not everything said negative is a personal attack. As as for this being the nastiest community around, I think you need to get out/read more.
  5. If for nothing else Tatsu gets the nod for the insanity that is the Pretzel Loop which has to be hands down the most intense element on any coaster ever.
  6. I don't think that's broken. It looks like it's been dug out to me. I'm guessing the tie down rod was damaged. If you look closely you'll see that it has had an extension nut placed on it within this cut out section. This is not unheard of in (coaster) construction.
  7. Congratulations. You just spent more than the park used to make in a whole year.
  8. That's not an actor. That's the same person that was on camera in the previous video
  9. Yeah to be honest. That's up there with the morons that would have a problem with suicide squad because of dreamworld for me. Not callinb you a moron, but the connection is moronic.
  10. I for one would actually be over the moon if the mega thrill ride was called My Little Pony. But I appreciate my love for irony differs from most people.
  11. Because Slick it's not VRTP. If it was you'd get the usual sort of mindless praise we've come to expect.
  12. Pretty sure the two aforementioned coasters are about the two extremes of coaster lol. One is the best thing ever built, the second is so much better now it's a pile of scrap lol
  13. Yes when you actually bother to take the time to read the articles you will see this was cause by the girl being silly and standing and changing seats mid ride.
  14. I don't think there's any chance of a re paint because forget the theme. This colour scheme is one of the best looking coasters I've ever seen.
  15. I would say Wolf Creek. It took detail and sets to a whole new level.
  16. New control, new drives, new motors all kinda go hand in hand. The tech has all come a long way since 97
  17. We did mid late June and 100% needed the pass so beware mileage may vary. And yes check X is actually open and the wait isn't actually like only 15mins because that's sometimes a thing.
  18. Yeah I recommend the cash for the platinum flash pass for magic mountain. Check wait time on X as well and if it's high grab the hardly advertised singe ride X upgrade. A coaster everyone must experience at least once.
  19. Think my head just exploded with your in depth engineering math there!
  20. Because it's almost impossible to get the concrete perfectly level and also the support might not be 'perfect' so the base might not sit perfectly level anyway. The nuts 'under' the support can be adjusted to level the support correctly. Once it's all said and done the space in the middle will be grouted so the support does effectively 'connect' with the concerted. Does that make sense?
  21. Can I just put what everyone must surely be thinking out there... What the hell are you talking about?
  22. I think that's pretty obvious
  23. There is a mix of two songs (about 10 mins) that plays on loop for he first few hours of the day. Then after that the fountain takes on the same music as Main Street.
  24. Yeah that's a weird way to say that. If the case I would say that it's a privately commissioned piece and not available for public release.
