Dreamworld's Festival of Happiness
Well, it's that fantastic immersive theming style that we have always loved about Movie World, but seems to have dropped off more in recent years. Although, has possibly made a return thanks to Justice League

It's like Dreamworld has taken over Movie World's standard of theming. Very impressive

Sea World Storm Coaster construction 2013
Ahh okay, that explains it. I find it really interesting that the footers have gone in already. Perhaps it will be ready sooner than many of us thought?

^ Thanks matt! That looks promising... lots of footers and a channel(?)

Expansions start at Jamberoo Action Park
Agreed. I've gotta say - these additions are making me think it's almost worth a trek back out there. Haven't been there for years. I'm really pleased NSW is finally getting some decent (or any) waterparks

Thanks heaps for the photo liz.wiz. I would LOVE to be able to see inside the show building - similar to the pics MW put up on their fb page of Justice League construction. The actual building looks like it's going to need a bit of work around the front and side with damage to the roof etc. Also, I'm assuming they are going to build a new big facade to cover the building - it's way too ugly to leave it exposed

On a side note I've got to say I find that really strange. I understand that everyone has their own opinion but movie world has added green lantern and justice league (both decent rides), wet n wild has added constrictor (a great waterslide) and sea world is building seal harbour and the water coaster. If I lived up that way the decision to buy a VIP pass would be easy I forgot about Arkham asylum too!

Flying Panda Dragon?

Ha! Very creative! And well done on getting the actual footprint of the ride correct

I'm just so excited about this ride choice and so very pleased to hear that they may be retaining the show building. Where would we be if it weren't for Village in this country? They truly do make the absolute best ride choices

Wet 'n' Wild Sydney Construction
Wow! Looks like they've made some improvements since the 'flyover'. This is what I was hoping for - that the flyover would not represent the absolute final design. Maybe there's hope for better master blasters too. Just had another thought... it's possible the flyover was created before the model and not after. Here's hoping the model is the latest revision to the plans!

That's the issue. If I was Movie World's marketing manager I would have been going ALL out promoting this thing as a great family ride/experience. After the recent addition of Green Lantern, people were crying out for something all the family can go on. Movie World delivered this. But you'd hardly know it based on the marketing. You'd think it was a failed 'thrill' ride (if you knew it was there at all!!)

New Dreamworld Attraction
I agree with everything you just said. Well put
-
New Dreamworld Attraction
That would be a terrible outcome for Movie World - especially considering Justice League cost around $9million whereas this Zamperla ride is likely to be significantly less

Expansions start at Jamberoo Action Park
This Tornado is going to have some serious length! Looks fantastic. Good on them for adding slides with decent ride time that aren't over in 5 seconds. Are you listening Wet 'n' Wild Sydney?

I love it when you upload some random pic of a crappy kids coaster Gazza. There are some really bad ones out there apparently
-

They certainly don't need another spinning flat ride. So why are they adding one? Because it's cheap 'n slutty... oops, I mean easy
-
New Dreamworld Attraction
I agree. I'm sure the capital spend on this alone would be small enough to NOT classify it as one of their 'big' rides. But this is not surprising as DW are trying to compete with the massive capex Village are spending, but they are doing it in their own cheap way. Naturally they will try and get away with making things sound better than they are

I find it interesting that A] Dreamworld is adding a new big 8 thrill ride in what is supposedly a kids/family area and B] Adding a new thrill ride outside of their normal 3-5 year time frame ie. Buzzsaw was what, only a year ago? Pressure from Village much?
-
New Dreamworld Attraction
True that! DW likes them because they are generally the cheapest and easiest option. They certainly don't need MORE flats but they are clearly not willing to build new coasters or rides with any length. It seems the Aussie public is still impressed by flats unfortunately - judging by the reception the Claw received. If anything, it's MW that could do with a couple more flats, not DW
-
New Dreamworld Attraction
Another flat for DW. No surprises there
