The largest roller coaster ever built in Australia will crown Movie World the Southern Hemisphere's thrill capital

Featured Replies

Thanks for this article - it raises a point I have given a lot of thought to myself recently. We all know that despite the quality of Movie World's offering, Dreamworld has generally taken the mantle of the thrill park; even just the 'ride' park (ie. the park that wins simply because it has the most rides). For most of the general public, DW has always been a favourite for its perceived larger offering and its emphasis on thrills. It has always been viewed as the full-day park. Movie World has never quite been able to reverse this perception, despite a very valiant and concerted effort in recent years. But I agree with the article that this new coaster changes everything. This thing is going to dominate the skyline like no other ride in Australia. The GP will see it as the type of ride you'd normally only find at major international parks (and they'd be right). I think it's going to be a big enough draw in its own right for people to choose to visit the park with the sole purpose of riding this coaster, even when it's no longer new, with the rest of MW's attractions being an added bonus.
