I think on Saturdays they service the fire sensors in the front of the cars.

Hi everyone! This is another update to the construction. Testing has begun for Boomerang! They're using these water jug dummy's as passengers. They made this undercover area where the ride operator shall be.T The top of Loopy Lighthouse has been removed. With the seats put in. SS 01 has been put with the rest of Silly Sub. It works basically as a mini Body Rock. Sledgehammer has had it's seats put in. Same with the Gyro Swing. Big Dippers support beams are now being delivered to begin construction on the ride. The top part of Cloud 9 is being put in. And more demountables are being put in. You can see these buildings as apart of the concept art. Next update will be whenever I get there!

And here is all the footage of Boomerang testing today from many different angles, All the rest is just a summary of what i saw today! Also if the video is a little pixelated there is a 4K version processing right now

Big Dipper support beams have started to arrive and boomerang was testing today, I have it on video but I will upload it later tonight!

Decorations have started to appear for this years event

I think sometime on sites like this everyone seems to focus on rides first and foremost myself included, In saying that when I visit with the kids we barely do the rides we spend most of the time watching shows and meeting characters. Mw always seems to have something going on somewhere in the park at any given times and the kids love it over Sw or Dw. Another bigger wait to see better parade is awesome news, sure it’s not a new coaster but the addition of maybe 10 extra characters to see during the day, And let’s not forget they also announced a new slide tower and slides for wnw, everyone was stoked with www when they announced their fully 6, here we have a new show for mw and new slides for wnw I for one am excited, I hope they pull it off in a great way and I’m sure there will be surprises not shown just yet. And when this gets out of the media and they need a pick me up I’m sure we will hear about what’s going in to replace Arkham asylum

I can confirm that dc rivals is back up and running today

That was a very short maintenance period. If it's true, I look forward to riding rivals soon.

Here is a video rendering of the new attractions at the park! Looks like a pretty good addition for mine!!

I think a lot of you who post on this page feel that VRTP owe you something. This "Hooray for Hollywood" is not to please you its to bring back 90's nostalgic to the park, it's hey day. The parade actually coincides with the event and will be the largest parade Movie World have commissioned since the early 2000's. Plus there is heaps more announcements about Hooray to come in the following weeks. Remember you never get it right the first time...who knows how more epic this will become over the years. I'm glad Austin is back. The impersonator today on the news/promo's is probably one of the best the park has had.

Not sure if this group shot has been posted elsewhere but was shared on LinkedIn by Michael Croaker

If its standard 2 person rafts, why do you need a conveyor? I can't think of any other water parks that use them.

Re-posting and tweaking this post from another thread because I stand by this idea and I reckon it's boss. Mad Max themed land. Vekoma Mad-house where the WB Exhibit is now. Entrance to the east facing current Arkham station OR an ETF dark ride system that uses the Mavericks/WB Exhibit building as a station/dark-ride section that then swings out into a Mad Max themed courtyard. Vekoma flyer that makes use of the space from Superman Escape's helixes right up to the current maze buildings. Mad Max themed bar and events space that doubles as an exit pathway, observation platform (think light-house type outpost themed to Mad Max) and merch space for the ride itself. Mack Twist 'n' Splash or Drunken Barrels (or hell, any half decent flat ride that would do well on a hot summer day) to tie the space in between current Arkham courtyard and the interconnect from the Mad Max area to WWF. This combo of attractions would make great use of the land, avoids overlap with existing attractions in Australia and has clearly defined marketable advantages (country's first flying coaster, total novelty factor etc.) Advantages of a Mad Max themed land: There's a new Mad Max movie. The theme is pretty iconic and timeless at this point. It's basically an abandoned, rustic theme, so it's not crazy expensive to do well It's Aussie AF and appeals to the same demo that Hollywood Stunt Driver does The transitions between other precincts themed lands is a piece of cake - it's an easy transition to WWF, and the transitions between Superman and Main Street are basically more of what used to be there with the China Town Alley-way. If you put an RMC Hybrid between West and Mad Max it'd fit theming wise for both and blur the transition between the lands. You're welcome Village. 🍻 Second update: have added inspo pictures because why not. How sick would it be walking into the former Arkham Asylum precinct styled into a dry Sydney Harbour, complete with broken harbour bridge, faux skyline facades, beautiful chandalier interiors with old Victorian-style glasshouses melded into the sand rockery and a ton of cool outposts and makeshift vehicles thrown into the mix.

sounds like it might be early prep for demolition.
