[jjuttp]

Anything Adam West or have the skipped the best Batman film?

[themagician]

No Adam West, just the 1989 movie onwards

I believe this is closing after the up and coming school holidays...

[Vidgamer]

Finally, it has run for years...

[Rivals]

i’ve heard it will be used in some capacity during Fright Nights, so if that’s true i won’t be shocked if it does close sometime soon.

Probably just for extended dusting.

Nothing. I don’t think we’ll see it return as an exhibit anymore and it will return to being used for fright nights and maybe a future daily stage show

I have also heard awhile ago that this is the last for the WB Studio Showcase concept.

It’s the end of the showcase concept 

[Tim Dasco]

So this means once school holidays are over nothing will be open past Gotham.

Showcase gone, Doomsday closed, Scooby Closed, Dodgems Closed and Wild West Down.

#1 rule I have with Village to avoid disappointment and frustration: never believe what they state/say on their socials/website/marketing material. As the saying goes "action speaks louder than words".

I'd love to see a show moved back into there and HSD2 replaced with a new ride.

[Brad2912]

Despite my dislike for the show itself, the arena should and likely will always have its place. People need somewhere to chill for a bit, get out of the sun/weather etc, and it’s a crowd crowd soaker on peak days. 

any show reintroductions to the show stage should be additional to the outdoor arena

trouble is the arena faces west, and most afternoon shows tend to cop a lot of sun in the stands unless you sit high (where there's no ventilation). Combined with burning rubber and exhaust fumes and it makes it fairly unpleasant. As for the weather, if its raining, you may or may not get wet, but anyone who's seen HWSD: Rain edition knows its more exciting to watch paint dry.

It's nicer on Main Street if you're looking to chill or get out of the weather. Astro turf is more comfortable than the metal benches too.

I do agree though, the show arena needs to keep a show in there - though it desperately needs reworking and not just recycling the same set with a city\country story that doesn't fit. Showstage likewise needs to return a show.

Looks like the DCeased maze (if it returns) will be moved into the Showstage as First Aid is now using the Intencity building

 

[DaptoFunlandGuy]

That's a lot of land space for first aid, i doubt they need all of it.

Though I guess its still up in the air what they do with showstage so who knows?

[Baconjack]

Where was first aid before?

It was the last shop before you entered Kids WB (across from the kids store) and the one that connected to the hut. I am guessing this happened:

MW expected to build the arcade and demolished the Looney Gardens, but they must of did measurements and there was not enough space to fit it in, so they needed to relocate the First Aid for it to fit. But DCeased was likely already being built, so they had to wait for Fright Nights to finish before starting work. 

They waited until after Christmas and Dirty Harrys refurb was done, then started work on the Intencity building. First Aid would need to be open while construction is done: so they had to wait to close it until the new first aid area opened, and now that it is, they can begin construction on the arcade.

So, if I’m getting this correct from what you’ve posted in both threads, they’re moving the First Aid building into the old arcade building (thus reducing the space available in said building), so that they can then incorporate the old First Aid building into an arcade building?

 

What kind of backwards thinking is going on here?

Yes, quite confusing. Why do they have to spend money switching it around and extending buildings out when they can just use the space like it was before and save costs?
