  1. I think @joz summed up my thoughts entirely. I really like the new area, especially how well it seems to improve the "flow" as you walk through the area. The facades and interiors look great, and it is definitely a bigger project than I first assumed. But I must say, the facades do seem awfully "blocky", and not a huge amount of attention to detail on the exterior facades. Also, while the interiors of the burger bar and coffee shop look GREAT, it still seems a bit "dated" and I'm not sure why (I honestly can't put my finger on it). Either way, it's a HUGE improvement and I don't think any further works over what it has now would really be seen as beneficial in the eyes of the GP.
  2. I mentioned some time ago how I'd love to go through a maze with no lights... so if they took my idea... !
  3. Anyone want to take a stab at noting all the locations of the markers?

  5. Thanks Brad for posting this. You worried me at first, saying that Village Roadshow net profit is down 64 percent... then I realised that it's for the entire group, not just the theme park division. GC theme park results seemed quite strong, making up for the short falls of the other parks. Also, this document is for FY16-17, which ends June 30 next year. The new coaster was rumoured to be opening late next year. Also, it's interesting that the GC theme parks "paid" for the new sound stage. Obviously some funny accounting going on there!
  6. Still, a few thousand bucks and you've got yourself a pretty awesome advertisement to sell annual passes etc. Probably should have put it on a bit earlier, but better late than never....
  7. So it seems due to some issues with offering an "all you can ride" pass at the GC show this year, the main(?) rides company has bailed and is hosting their own show the exact same weekend as the GC show. Seems like a dick move to me.
  8. Think people believe what they want to believe! Also, many people forget about April Fools
  9. Wow, that's news to me! PC looks really amazing. RCTW seems to be in a bit of an awkward position. They're releasing a game as shit as theirs (if the reviews are anything to go by) at the same time that people are LOVING PC... and PC isn't even in its final form yet! It seems that alpha 3 will be a pretty much "finished" game... from the actual inclusions POV. A lot of things will be adjusted and added, but the park management is looking good and that's really the only (big) thing missing at this point.
  10. I would assume on rides were there's a 'relaxed' loose items policy, recording using your phone/video cameras is OK. I could be very wrong, though...
  11. Well ACE is the place that would be LEAST likely to rate it #1. Unless there's a traveling coaster section? But even then... "Rated best ride at show" - think I heard that too, lol.
  12. So I went to the EKKA last night and the prerecorded audio out front he spinning wild mouse coaster kept saying: "rated best roller coaster by Roller Coaster Magazine" - or something along those lines. Was tempted to ask the ride operators what the hell they're talking about, but knew they wouldn't know/care. lol
  13. Yes, me and my group of 3 will be doing the tour on the 8th
  14. Why would MW take the stunt show out of commission for almost 2 months? There are plenty of other great locations, including makeshift marquees if need be.
  15. I thought the chain link fence looked nicer. Hopefully they paint the fence green.
  16. I just hope they don't re-use the deli-icious signs for the windows...
  17. Don't think anyone is suggesting otherwise (except for @reanimated35 after you posted).
  18. Perhaps a bit of fake turf off to the side as you enter on that side? I wouldn't mind a bit of greenery and hope that they do add some bigger trees around the place (where they can actually fit them in). Would hide the SDSC building well.
  19. Perhaps. I just feel like I am the wrong height for them, so they actually feel really restrictive. But in terms of the old restraints, if they are loose, I guess it does give you that floating/free feeling.
  20. Shhhhh, don't mention the stuff written on the windows! I wanted to have that as an exclusive rumour for a while!
  21. ^ Looks great, just a bit bummed out that they didn't use the new B&M vest restraints.
  22. With all due respect, I think you should just do whatever you want to do. And do it for longer than a few months because it'll take a heck of a lot longer to get people interested, trust me.
  23. Yup, a new facade has gone up in that void area. That was an access road, or is right next to the access road used for construction.
