  1. I know Intamin have been working on there own version of vekoma booster bike. so looks like we will be getting a world first.
  2. !st thanks guys for the kind comments. Are you talking about Bill and Ted or Cut! lagoon show? The basic storyline of the show is Lex Luthor, with the help of his Krypton iPod, plans to use Universal’s new cinespheres "you know those big balls floating on the lagoon" to blow up Universal and create his own theme park–Luthorversal. with his own rides
  3. Hi guys I finally got round to doing all my Halloween Horror Nights updates, sorry for the delay on these its just being so hetic down here at Warner Bros. with work and stuff. Anyway Enjoy (1) Universal's Halloween Horror Nights Photo Update (2) CUT! lagoon show Photo Update (3) Bill and Ted show Photo Update Ian:)
  4. Im just happy to know people read my captions
  5. well here it is guys my next park in long list of updates due, enjoy the photos http://ozcoaster.net/content/view/39/1/ Ian:)
  6. (1) DCA is still Disney dont even go there with stupid comprassions like that seeing Grizzly River, Monster Inc, Muppets, Tower of Terror, Fliks Fun Fair all have awesome theming. And after Paradise Peir gets its big update which is a huge sum of money the whole place will look awesome and BTW nothing theming wise will be added to maliboomer in the upgrade Because it doesnt need it, its a tower ride not a dark ride. (1)Im actually a big support of Walt Disney and have been for over 20years now, Problem is everybody here who complains about theming needs to realise until the park can get around the 20,000 mark daily we simply cant put lots of money into each ride Disney rides normally cost 5 times the amount of any normal park chain out there. So you can have one ride every 5 years or 1 ride or attraction every year. you do the math. To be honest I didnt think Dr Dooms theming was that great compared to other rides at IOA, and as I was told last November 05 the Space Shot launch will be outside so we can see peoples faces on launch. Im glad you are coming to ride it, but please do not accuse me of telling you what to think, because I cant remember telling you what to think. I work my butt off on my website and I know Rich does over here and sometimes i feel like chucking the whole site in because its not worth it when you keeping getting people who just worry about little details, or the abuse throw at you plus we have social lifes outside of this too. So just understand when I give you or anyone on here a opinon Im just saying what i think the most logical answer is, as someone who has worked in the industry worldwide and been a fan since he was the 7 (im nearly 30 ) So summing up Batwing didnt get over the top theming as we dont have the money attandance wise to be wasting it on a small attraction because the park will put alot of money into there next big project at the back of the park next year THE END
  7. Im sorry guys but you all need to stress less about theming on simple rides like drop towers Just look at Maliboomer at DCA the theming is no where like Splash Mountain and thats Disney so Batwing fine with its current theming when you compare it to Scooby Doo ect. Also IMO the Batboat and Batmobile are very cool as they were sent from Warner Bros. after the movies were made in the 90s. The only thing I would have changed is a stage below the batboat and batmobile so they could be elevated more. So guys be happy that there is a new ride on the Coast and stop comparing it to non drop rides.
  8. Show Stage is going to go through some big changes in 2007, There is a new looney tunes stage in the Looney tunes village and also the Daffy's shop near the exit of Police Acamedy is now a video games area replace the one in the western area so special transformations can happen at the show stage. But more on the show stage when the time is right
  9. Im a fan of long rides like Splash Mountain, but will say Batwing was a blast I love how it counts down the Launch over the parks speakers, makes you even more nervous at take off time. The bouncing was great and being above the Superman Top Hat looked awesome. BTW for the Media launch Batman Absailed down the tower very cool. Anyway ride is now open to public so get out there and ride. *****watch 10 news for onride footage tonight*****
  10. I will be there as the park photography not ozcoaster rep.
  11. I will be at the media launch in the morning before the parks open to public. So your date is DEC 20th no typo
  12. Wet N WIld will always be the Better Park to the General public (1) Size of Park as of late WNW has been hitting 10,000 each weekend WWW can only hold 4000 people you do the math. (2) The name Wet N Wild is worldwide like Disneyland is for Disney and a name alone can make a big difference when groups or family are deciding. (3) The 3 park Superpass not every tourist can afford to go to every park so they buy the 3 park superpass which gives you a day at MW, SW and WNW plus a extra bonus day at any park of there choice. Now in my opinon my next waterpark visit will be WWW but im a theme park freak the general public are not.
  13. The Price includes a nice big photo taking by yours truly me so its about $10 for the movie
  14. To answer your question. I didnt like Seaworld I only went for the killer whales the rest is better at the one down here IMO IOA is the best park in the world besides Tokyo Disneysea. here are my IOA photos so you can see what i mean part 1 http://ozcoaster.net/content/view/32/27/ part 2 http://ozcoaster.net/content/view/35/1/ also how many days are you at WDW?
  15. Its nothing too do with competition Krispy Creme Donuts wanted a park to promote them before they open there 1st queensland stores here on the Gold Coast. Also did you know last week end WNW had a record attendance day of over 10,000 thats crazy.
  16. Hi guys here is part 2 to my IOA photo update http://ozcoaster.net/content/view/35/1/ Also Part 1 can be viewed here http://ozcoaster.net/content/view/32/1/ Thanks Ian
  17. Ive said for over a year now (well 6 months publicly) that it would be outside because we wanted to see people faces of fear as they launch, its more fun this way when you are waiting in queue or watching for the nice cool viewing area.
  18. Ive done a big update from dirt to lots of vertical http://ozcoaster.net/content/view/34/1/
  19. This park was so awesome I needed to do 2 updates so part 2 will be later this week. Here is Part 1 Enjoy Ian:) http://ozcoaster.net/content/view/32/27/
  20. BTW who would love to see a killer whale show down here at our Sea World I would love it.?
  21. Thanks Rich I really enjoyed the animal shots just a shame the park wasnt up to Disney and Universal standards
  22. Talking about Disney, There is huge plans I cant talk too much about but can say a little for now. Look for DCA to have a big redelevopment coming up and im talking big bucks and not just a new ride. Trust me soon alot more people will venture back to DCA
  23. This week is perfect due to schoolies, MW has had there emptyess week this week because normal hoilday families stay away durning schoolies
  24. Hi guys just done a 46 photo update on this Aussie view of Sea World Orlando Enjoy http://ozcoaster.net/content/view/31/1/ Ian:)
