I am going tomorrow night, so what are people's thoughts on it this year?

Scooby-Doo doesn't need a replacement. It's still a great ride, that I love everytime I ride it. Yes some of the animatronics don't work as well, he queue could do with a clean and fix up, but overall it's still good.

^Pretty much

Gold Coast theme parks posted this on FB, We can announce that the NEW Dolphin Show at Sea World will be called 'Affinity'. The show will focus on the connection between humans and dolphins. It will show the beauty of Dolphins, their interaction with humans in the wild and will feature trainers on paddleboards, as Dolphins swim around, and jump over them. Stay tuned for a starting date.

I'm not entirely sure, probably. But it may also refer to the cafe, shop and surroundings. They might install a new entrance. Flooring might be changed, cafe could be upgraded. I don't think it has to be anything major, just a refurbishment.

According to the Thrillz Facebook page, Tiger Island will be receiving an upgrade in 2015.

They wouldn't do that. A few years ago the outside Jet Streams at WnW had to be modified due to safety reasons, and the speed that people were reaching. Like Jet streams I would say that the TV is just being modified to make the slide safer or so people travel down the slide quicker.

You can already apply for next years season. Just go to the channel 9 website.

I was just curious

Question: Would it be possible for the claw to be modified so that it would rotate a full 360, or would the change cost a lot?

Yes it is In my opinion, I think we are going to see some major works happening for the Creatures of the Deep attraction after the Summer holidays. I think that like Dinosaur Island, it will use the lighthouse area and that building. On the theme park place's latest park update, they stated that they believe that now the top section of the bridge (next to jet rescue) has been removed, it could be the entrance to Wild. To me this makes sense, if it is still happening. And if it isn't, it could still make a good entrance.

When I went to Screameworld a couple of weeks, there queues were a reasonable length. The longest I waited for was 30 minutes (ToT) and the shortest was 5 minutes (Wipeout). I enjoyed the event, and despite it not being as good as Movie Worlds big events, but Screamworld is trying to be one of those events. For what it is, it is good, queues are reasonable and the night is worth the price.

Wipeout was down for scheduled maintenance according their website.

Went to Screamworld tonight, so I finally got to do Tail Spin. It's a great addition. It doesn't matter whether you are spinning like crazy, or taking it easy it is fun. I went on it 3 times and managed to get a couple of spins on the 2nd to rides. I managed to figure out the way to do it, but the wind stopped me from spinning a lot more. Even when in the queue line you aren't bored, because you are watching and want the riders to spin. People were cheering and clapping when people managed to get them to spin a lot. I did find that the wings were surprisingly heavier than I thought. Overall it's a great ride and really well themed. Overall ocean parade was really well done, but I agree that the area behind tail spin, might have been forgotten about. But it isn't really an area that is used a lot, so I can understand why. I also got to ride wipeout for the first time. Really good ride, and the spray water canons were a great addition. A couple of times you felt like you were over the top of the viewing deck. Tonight was the first time I've been to Screamworld and I did think it was really good. Good that's quite a lot of the rides were open and not just the thrill rides. Worth the money, will be going again.

I find what the Dreamworld Unlimited World Pass offers is much better. You get discounts tickets for friends (10% and then 50% during your birthday month), discount on food, drinks, in the shops, Big Brother Tickets, ride photos and on the flowrider. Passes are $90 for children and $110 for adults. Which lasts until Christmas Eve next year. Right now the VIP passes are $100 each and you don't get the discounts. So I don't think they should increase the prices. I think maybe the VIP Gold Pass should include these type of benefits.

^Thanks for that. It looks amazing lit up like that.

^I think "Inner City Rush" is the film they are making during the show.

That's great to hear that Cyclone is running smoother and doesn't stop 10 times coming into the station. Now they just need to upgrade the queue line.

Why don't you just go to the general enquires office on main street and ask them

I haven't been to WC before, but was just wondering what the ride queues are like. Because the event is only 3 hours I'd imagine if people were to do rides you would only be able to do a couple and then watch the main parade at the end of the night. What else is there to do at it?

^It's still on their website
