Dirty Harry's Bar - 2024 Maintenance

[TBoy]

Dirty Harry's is closed for the next month, with Rick's remaining open. Most times in off-peak it is the opposite with Rick's closed/Dirty Harry's open. Another thing is there is construction walls around Dirty Harry's, which implies that the closure could be bigger than the average off-peak closure. Photos here (thanks to TSPN)

they have to keep the green wrap handy for when Doomsday and GL go down....

it seems like the green wrap may have been thrown out, Batwing and Superman don’t have it around them either. with the Flash construction fence now out the front as well it all definitely looks unique right now.

I always hated the green wrap (but in this case, that would be better than how it’s presented right now). But why can’t they just use a black mesh to cover the fence. Makes it look less obvious and be a much better aesthetic.

I'm glad the green is gone, but honestly have they learned nothing? stop throwing up plain boring hoarding (black mesh is just as bad, IMO). You know you're shutting something down, either have a custom wrap for it (if its an attraction that requires it annually to keep the theme) or get some nice 'generic' themed stuff like WB characters in a scene (see the old WB Kids hut) with characters saying (or holding a sign saying) "pardon our mess while we.... etc etc" 

Generic ones are also handy for times when things go down unplanned, and they should always have 20-30 metres of this generic style for unexpected or generic attractions and outlets.

Movie World would benefit from:

• A western town themed wrap to block WWF when needed. They've already got the forced perspective matte painting to copy from as a sample. This attraction and its entire land is blocked off whenever the ride is under maintenance so would get used regularly (and would have the added bonus of themed walkways towards fright night sheds, or even around the Santa install)
• A DC themed wrap to block Rivals, or Justice League, or Batwing, or Green Lantern, or any combination of these
• A WB character wrap for Kids attractions AND \ OR generic in park maintenance like food outlets or main street stores.
• An Oz wrap... for when the time comes (and if they're smart they could work with PICO while they're on the project to ensure it is thematically consistent with the rest of the artwork)

Sea World can do it decently, so Movie World really have no excuse

It’s a shame they don’t spend those extra few minutes hanging them up properly though so it doesn’t look half assed

It's funny how half a dozen cable ties could make so much difference.
