Roller coasters and theme takes centre stage at Movie World

One roller coaster under construction, another suddenly closed while a third undergoes apparent "thematic enhancements". Elsewhere around the park, Doomsday Destroyer reopens and things are looking sharp with Chinese New Year in full swing and some little-known themed sections.

" The concrete needs to cure before support columns can be attached, hence such a large gap between when they're poured and when we'll see the roller coaster take shape. "

If this was true imaging how long a building would take to go up.

Great update guys.

Those signs at the turnstiles saying what rides are closed have been there for quite a while now, thinking probably even a couple of years.

And WOW never noticed those footers in the footprint of GL, and that angled footer, don't think I've ever seen that before. And good to see they are getting the fence all completed, so they can remove those construction fences.

Noted and fixed!

@themagician All the footings shown have been around for a while now.

Yeah I assumed they were, have just never noticed them before came as a surprise.

With regard to using Rick's courtyard, i'd like to see it used as an *gasp* actual marketplace that it is themed after - think a souk, or similar.

I'm sure there's enough vendors out there at places like carrara markets that would relish the opportunity to be involved. Obviously there needs to be a level of quality, but imagine going in there for unique items to personalise and buy to take back home and remember your holiday?

I'm thinking things like those 'name' brooches made out of wire, with beads and such. I'm thinking perhaps a 'drink vendor' (even if it's served out of the existing bar) that serves UNIQUE drinks to the theme. Imagine turkish coffee? or even just ice blended tropical drinks and fruit smoothies or something.

If mainstreet can host an 'airbrushed hat' stall (ugh) surely we could see the courtyard utilised a little better 'in theme'....

I'm thinking they should open the little bar they have there and make it a nice little quiet chill out area for those so inclined. 

Could probably do a really small snack menu there which is just items stollen off the buffet??

Im all for more sit down eating areas and it's nice when you have some hidden gems in the park. The whole area looks great.
