  2. I don't think Ghost Hunters will be comparable to the new Justice League Ride. 3D Shooter - Australian First Justice League Shooter - World First I personally think that its going to be amazeballs! I really hope that it is a combination of screens and real live props, but I'm thinking it's probably going to be more like midway mania. I don't know why people are worried about space. If they keep the queue outside when you really look at the amount of space that's available. Library, walkway, indoor sorting rails, batcave and finally the simulator building that size is quite big... It will easily fit an amazing attraction.

  3. Quite a few people here have been asking for a buzz light year style shoot em up for quite some time now. I'm glad Movieworld are heading in that direction. Good reride potential, an engaging storyline. It's what the park needs. Ps. I have no insider knowledge. I don't know anyone who works a the parks outside of my business relationship with them, and they don't tell me shit unless it's at a media event. I could sit here and say I picked this attraction as soon as Batride closed but gloating isn't my style....

  4. Hmmm... It doesn't sound like it had to many stops so wasn't really an effective people mover... Upkeep and extra staffing probably led to its closure. The train has probably sat unloved since its closure so it's possible u won't see it return. (I did swear that big bro would never return to Dreamworld so I have been wrong in the past lol )

  5. Wyn, there are some employees who fight tooth and nail for their company and will subject anyone who posts a negative thing about the park to an inquisition. I enjoy reading unbiased opinions and just don't pay any attention to the others. I personally had leg pain after the ride but still don't understand how someone could have a headache. I suppose I would swear black and blue about the leg pain as much as others swear black and blue about the head pain. I think I forget sometimes we are not saving the debt crisis or world hunger here. We are talking about theme parks. A lot of passionate people post here. #firstworldproblems

  6. God I must be in a terrible mood tonight but they look like every other freaking animatronic I've ever seen. It's not my first choice for a attraction and still don't think it's a good fit for Seaworld but I'm interested to see the amount of theming they put in. Hope it's more than a few pot plants and "dinosaur" sound effects

  7. Teaser for Universal Studios Singapore new attraction

    Apparently Sesame Street is coming to Singapore. Oscar the Grouch trash can, "sunny days" is from the theme song, and the video shows the New York land in the park. Just read a rumor of an Elmo themed dark ride also in the New York land.
