Aand, once again, that's another media beatup. Can't you just stop it, News Limited?

I know, media are having a field day with it all! 

wish they'd all piss off back to k-mart and leave the parks alone

And I can guarantee, if (and hopefully never) a larger theme park has to close because of continued needless negative press, the media will be right there going: 'a sad day for theme parks and families' and 'loss of tourism dollars and jobs puts a strain on Gold Coast tourism' as if they weren't a contributing factor to eroding these theme parks' image in the public eye.

Media is taking so many wickets from Movie World. They need to get a 6.

that's what i was referring to LOL

WWF was having some issues this morning, ride may be closed for the whole day

Can confirm - it wasn't on the closed rides list at gates open (only Arkham), but staff were turning people back just past the timeshare people. When we went back a little later, they had moved back to the ride entrance, and  were advising people it would be closed for the day. 

I did see a west operator head back to the office next to rick's - not sure if they were heading home, or just reassigned. 

By the time we left the park (before 12pm) the front gates had updated to state west was closed, but arkham would now be open.... too late FML.

When I got to the park at around 10:30 they had put signs up at entrance saying WWF was closed
