The walls are down for Superman, they are hoping it opens today but they’re currently having issues with the launch. Batwing is about to reopen, people are in the queue they were having technical issues this morning Rivals still operating at reduced capacity, but all seats (including backwards) appear to be working. Currently there is about 5 minutes between trains dispatching Wild West walls is still slow, with quite a significant between each boat. This boat was unavailable but was still being dispatched Unfortunately, the entire Doomsday area is out of action. The only effect working is the water feature. Even simple things as trimming the vines around poison ivy is being ignored On a very small positive note, the sign for Arkham has finally been removed

So other than some rice refurbishments and removing two rides in 2010 and another a couple years ago and adding another simple driving ride. The area hasn’t really changed in 10 years. This area definitely needs some attention. From a presentation perspective, the area is looking much better than ABC Kids World at DW which arguably is even more desperate for a refurbishment and new attractions

I have confirmed with the park it is only $5 to enter the park between 5 and 8pm.

The parents room could also be located left of the entrance where the huts still stand (‘hidden’ behind a wall with some artwork on it). To the right of the entrance to the area, everything can stay and I don’t mind if Tweety and the train stay, but the rest should be demolished. There is so much under-utilised space there that has so much potential.

Some of the slides haven't operated since the incident a couple years ago. Slides 2 and 3 are still closed (according to the website) and slide 1 was closed at one point too.

From April 14, the non-vaccinated will be allowed back into theme parks

Movie World is looking for performers for this years Hooray for Hollywood event. Great to see the event return.

And while not a shed, the Jet Rescue and Green Lantern stations aren’t much better

The interactive map has been updated to feature the food truck locations https://www.dreamworld.com.au/park-information/park-map/online-map/#/

It wouldn’t surprise me if the Will Smith slap was part of the delay for Leviathan opening

What if it was real?

It seems to be an April fools joke, but they got the wrong day

The manufacturers website

geez that is so sad to see when you look at what that area once was. The removal of all those trees has not helped, but just the simplicity of having some grass, simple gardens and timber fencing makes such a difference.

Well according to the website it takes 40 riders. Which means 1200/40 is 30 cycles. Which means there is a cycle every 2 minutes. Which would be a max 1 minute cycle and then 1 minute to unload and reload. Which seems impossible.

I quite liked the rustic timber fence that was there, replacing that would’ve been nice.

Westfield indeed get too greedy and the owners of night quarter did not see it as worthwhile. Markets on that land next to DW could be pretty cool, but a lot of work would need to be done, especially to make the entrance fit in to the DW aesthetic so it didn’t look out of place when it wasn’t operating. So while it might be a cool idea, I don’t think it would work and if DW wouldn’t to continue with it more regularly, they could easily do it on random weekends throughout the year and maybe back it a park after dark thing

Scooby is still an enjoyable ride, it’s just disappointing when we know what it once was. They just need to spend some serious money again on it

Setup has begun

The station is looking great. They have replaced the fencing along the path towards Corroboree, but unfortunately it’s just a wire fence

The gardens have really started to grow and fill the area. I haven’t checked in a while, so not sure how long it’s been like this, but additional signage has been installed and the wait time is shown. Unfortunately they have laminated signs stuck to the wall in the photos areas The fence out the front of the park is complete

It has reopened https://fb.watch/bZ-7TS2Lf6/

According to the manufacturers website, the theoretical hourly capacity for vortex is 1200 riders

MDMC reopening has been delayed by a month, now opening on April 26.

Very much looks like it has reopened, but might just be technical rehearsals, hence why it’s still on the website
