Movieworld's New Website

[alex_1]

What are your opinions? I personally love the new layout, but the ride descriptions ect sound like they were written by a 6 year old.

I think its very b grade. They really seem to be trying to make things like wwf seem like extreme thrill rides lol

Why was the thumbnail for scooby a horse race?

[Spencer]

The new site would be excellent if it had an archive for the past attractions. Without that it's rubbish, remember when they used to have the cool little logo's for each ride, past and present? Visiting the old website was more fun than actually going to the park.

Haha noticed that straight away, and the description for the "Whats up Rock?" Show is the description for the Scooby Doo Coaster. Obviously its just been put up and still needs quite a few "kinks" ironed out.

[alex_1]

Has anyone also noticed the video for scooby doo is less than a second long? Also the description for roadrunner - If running down the road is your idea of having fun, you’ll just love the Roadrunner Rollercoaster. Yes I absolutely love running down roads, I do it every day. Also, hollywood stunt drive is now an extreme thrill attraction.

The road runner theme song lyrics were "just running down the roads his idea of having fun", I think it's a clever reference.

Indeed Joz is correct with the reference, just listen to the queue music. But what is wrong with running down the road... This: Versus this:

Hey we can all play that game... vs But it was just a reference to the cartoon, nothing to worry about? I like the new website . Easy to navigate, but it really shows the current lack of attractions. Would be better if they split the Looney Tunes zone into seperate rides.

Ah ok, I didn't really get the reference. I thought it was like saying "Do you like taking a subway ride during an earthquake and being flown out by superman?" for superman.

LOL!! The descriptions aren't too bad. This one for Scooby seems perfectly adequate: 'ZOINKS! Just like Scooby, you’ll be part terrier, part TERRIFIED with the scariest and spookiest rollercoaster ever created! What will you do when the ghouls and gargoyles jump out to get you? The coaster cars are just like in the Scooby-Doo movie, complete with laser lighting and sound effects, state of the art animatronics and some mystery to keep you guessing until the very end. Rooby Rooby roo!!' I am not a huge fan on the new site, but I do kinda like the background images for some of the rides. Helps to build up each rides theme Edited February 24, 2012 by GoGoBoy

I think a few people would have something to say about this... Edited February 25, 2012 by MacPark

Probably considered state of the art for what Australian companies can produce on their budget

[alex_1]

You're taking a nice ride through the Metropolis rollercoaster subway. Then bang! Rumble! Earthquake! Before you know it LOOK UP IN THE SKY, IT'S SUPERMAN!- propelling your carriage skyward at 100km per hour! Go from zero to 100km an hour in only two seconds on Warner Bros. Movie World’s powerful rollercoaster, Superman Escape! Just reading that makes me cringe.

[Spencer]

Let's have a contest to see who can write a better description. Alex... You don't have to. I'll be the only judge.

I don't mind the new site. I feel it has sort of caught them up to Dreamworld's redesign from 2010 with the integration of social media plugins and altering background images. The only problem is this is the third or fourth different design currently used on the MyFun website. I would have preferred them to hold off on the release of the new Movie World website until the other park's websites were redesigned.
