  2. If you're an anti vaxxer, you're already the sort of moron that already wouldn't go to DW because it's too dangerous. This time of year is always quiet. WnW is pumping though, and White Christmas events have been well attended. I don't think the anti vax crowd is having much of an impact TBH. The real proof either way will be after boxing day.

  3. Not a huge amount to report, test seat outside the ride. Boarding gates much like a coaster, water is currently clear. Ride didn’t feel any different with the new boats, although some reports have stated they were moving to no loose items onboard this is not the case. Some of the effects are still as they were prior to closure. New spash trough prior to the water tower appears to have been built but was not functional.

  8. I actually quite like it. I think it keeps the style of the entrance and the font reminds me of Luna Park Melbourne's Big Dipper logo. It's a lot better than the logos for, say, Bug.

  9. Still if it didn’t happen then why say it did? Does thrill seeker have a vendetta against movieworld or something?? @Thrill Seekerstop making up stories about bad things happening at movieworld dude

  11. I was there on Sunday, the park overall was pretty quiet. Some areas were busier than others, but at 12 when I entered the park Steel Taipan only had a couple cycles wait

  12. Rode today a few times - 2 in the front, back, middle and then spinning. I was very underwhelmed. I give it a 5/10. Both of the forwards launches 🤮 so uneventful and boring, though the backwards launch felt a little exciting. The airtime hill was waaaaay more tame than I expected, considering rivals has a similar element that slaps hard ASF I was shocked i barely “left” my seat. Pacing was decent, forces were gentle and tame though I was seeing stars after my first ride which was odd for me (also my friends saw stars too) Next to rivals, obviously rivals wins. I’ve ridden hundreds of coasters Al over - and this is fantastic thrill for first time roller coaster riders, so dreamworld has definitely hit the nail on its head. For thrill seekers like myself it’s boring.

  13. Agreed @Gazza. The GC bar gives me sushi restaurant in a food court vibes. Also the spot for live music in the top image is *chefs kiss* I know they have a bunch of function spaces on the bottom level. It'd be great to retrofit that into another bar/eating space that's opened a little later than the golf. You could send home like 70% of your staff but still get revenue from the bar being open that way.

  14. My speculation is that in the 90s it was a dumb ratchet mechanism, and now its hydraulic harnesses and electronic monitoring, so more to break.

  15. Rumour is, Village is currently going through a staff shortage. With White Christmas & mandated vaccines to keep your job maybe the staff are burning out. Carnivale being pushed back to the end of Jan says to me the rumour could be true and Village don't have the staff to run an event and deal with the Christmas crowds at once. Maybe the seats being out has nothing to do with getting the parts and has more to do with they don't have enough staff to fit the parts. (just thoughts)
