  1. I never thought about it that way. I don't think SeaWorld should try to get the Orca's to breed anymore. One day these creatures will unfortunately die and when they do SeaWorld should not bother trying to get more whales. I know they have invested a lot of money into the arena and homes for these whales, but they need to realise lately they have had to invest a lot of money into it all. They should then turn the arena into something else.
  2. Does anyone have any pictures of Wipeout and Sea Viper at this stage?
  3. I just googled the make and model of my one and I found easy step by step websites that show how to do it. I'm sure you will be able to find it easily.
  4. SeaWorld are now trying to fight back after the film: http://seaworld.com/truth/?m=1 I've watched the film and it is an eye opener. They should just release them into the wild, but an area where they don't have to face all the creatures and elements of the wild , just like they said in the film. SeaWorld can fight back all they want, but heir fins should not be bent over like thry. Yes they may look after them, but they don't live in a large enough area. It may be big, but it's not the ocean. Killer whales aren't meant to perform, they are ment to be fraction animals that swim in the ocean. It's like if human had to live on a spa bath for years and years. It would be horrible.
  5. According to the Oxford Dictionary: theme park: an amusement park with a unifying setting or idea. amusement park: a large outdoor area with fairground rides, shows, and other entertainments. I think Dreamworld is a theme park. Just because it doesn't have the best theming, doesn't mean it isn't a theme park. You aren't going to get rides like the Giant Drop, Tower Of Terror or Cyclone at an amusement park. Anyway, I don't know any amusement parks that charge $85 for adults and covers 210 acres.
  6. Does anyone have a news on what is happening. Are Movie World starting work on it?
  7. A rollercoaster for the Wild West area has been discussed before and it was said that it couldn't be done (depending on where it was) due to the noise restrictions at that end of the park. It does look like a good ride that could fit well in the area if the theming was done right. I was thinking more of a ride like the 7 Dwarves mine ride that is just about to open. The old styled mine carts would fit well into the theming of this area of the park.
  8. Or they could have something like what they have at Cars Land. Obviously on much smaller and cheaper scale, but have cars drive through a looney tunes themed area. Then at the end they get a bit of speed on them and they go down the length of the building. For this to happen the cars would have to be much smaller and so would the track (That's just obvious though).
  9. You say that they spend heaps of money on maintenance for skyway, but I am sure they spend more on Sea Viper.
  10. You aren't imagining that, but I do believe it used to be in the Main Street Parade. I could also be wrong, but thats what I thought. I think they got rid of it once they put the roof over main street.
  11. That would be a pretty cool idea. I'm sure it will do very well in Australia as it has got great reviews and is doing well in the box office in other countries. I don't have much reasoning, but I don't think Movie World would add this attraction.
  12. Work has begun on upgrading the overpass at this exit on the motorway. I have some friends who's parents are in the business. I don't know how long it will take or what it will look like but it is happening now. Also I went pass the site for the shopping centre and they are already putting concrete barriers on the edge of the site.
  13. That pic does show where I meant, cos I thought the water was a waste, but I didn't realise that was how they moved the boats off the ride if they are broken, etc.
  14. Oh I didn't realise that was what it was for. In that case they could have the effect close to the edge of the water maybe.
  15. For Movie World to add effects to WWF to Big Thunder Mountain Railroad's level isn't going to happen. And even if they did, they wouldn't always happen. I think they could add lighting effect to make it seem like TNT was about to go off, without using fire. Even if MW added a few crates of TNT at the top of the lift hill, that could make it even better. Something else I would like to see would be if they added something extra at the start of the ride. Even if it was just a splash effect or something simple like that.
  16. I'm just going to assume from that comment that there were health and safety issues and they are fixing the issue.
  17. When I went to movie world a couple it years ago we were asked if we wanted to go around again when on Wild West falls.
  18. Reports have just come in and they apparently were only stuck there for 30 minutes, but the boats were stuck till after closing. That's what I've heard.
  19. I think it's sarcasm for why the bakery closed at Dreamworld and sea world
  20. Movie World does have plenty of variety: Village Bean Gotham City Ricks Cafe Arthurs Bakery Ben & Jerry's Concession Stands Dirty Harry Bar Newspaper Stand Outback BBQ Santa Fe Sundaes Sweet Treats Wild West Roadhouse
  21. I don't think we will see much work happen for the next couple of months now. Also, has all evidence of Dinosaur Island left the park now?
