If I were to set aside, say, two days, would you say Epcot and MK are the must-dos?
If you've gone so far to go to Orlando my recommendation would be to at least try to get to all the parks even if only for a little while. If you plan it well you can do a majority of the attractions and night time spectaculars across WDW over three days.
Disney and Universal just do things differently and it's something worth experiencing at least once.- 1

And SW have wasted no expense with the Bunnings rough-sawn rails.
If it was anymore complicated then its opening would be delayed for a year.

The guest feedback wins again with Australia replacing yet another attraction with shaded seating.

Not sure when it was changed but the website has been updated to simply say 'Coming Soon' instead of 'April, 2024'.
Village projects are cursed.

Anybody able to convince me the floor over the water is great yet?
No.
But I'm hoping the fountains look nice. -

Does Dreamflyer count as shaded seating?
It's a giant rotating parasol with seats suspended from it. It's not just shaded seating; it's THE shaded seating.

Friends only limit your coaster count potential.

Why even lol if you’re going to turn the lights on surely it’s not that difficult to jump on a computer and change the setting to make it light blue or something.
To gather opinions. Whilst we know what is best for every theme park everywhere, unfortunately they'll likely gather additional feedback from the filthy general public to make an informed decision about the sequence.

And the fact it’s a major point that is being pushed within the marketing of the ride is hilarious too.
That's what I love. It's something that is so bizarre to market that is also just flat out wrong.

I wouldn't mind it as much either, but that crown would still go to Luna Park Melbourne's Speedy Beetle is inside Scenic Railroad. I reckon at this point just go all in and call it the World's First Roller Coaster.

I'm not an engineer and could be talking out my ass but hear me out. Flash is at the center of a sea of hollow tubular steel that would vibrate with some significant force when Superman goes around the track. Now factor in that Flash is essentially one giant tuning fork. If those vibrations propagated over to the similarly hollow steel structure of Flash via resonance could it cause some problems outside of the original manufacturing standards?

Maybe they mean a coaster within a coaster?
It's pretty clearly says ride-within-a-ride.

I'm hearing from a friend inside the park today that Flash has been partially disassembled. Unsure why.

Thank you. I probably was a bit grumpy Friday, after my flights home, so I'm sorry for my part in it.
Totally fair. You came back from Tokyo. I'd be grumpy too haha.

I appreciate the additional insight @New display name. I'm not trying to undermine your opinion. This project is incremental, and therefore so is the discussion It's my bad that I mistook you for nitpicking.
I don't have an issue with anybody disliking anything. Dislike to your hearts content. It's just nitpicking that bothers me, but I personally shouldn't have jumped the gun. -

A vast majority of your comments recently have been taking Dreamworld to the gallows for the most minor of problems whilst completely ignoring the project as a whole. It makes you look desperate for something to complain about.

That makes sense, cheers for including that! It's difficult to know whether the pool was meant to be viewed or just a trough to take the fountains but you're right, it does seem strange for them not to be mentioned at all.

It's very clear, it was DW's intent for you to see the water.
I'm not saying you're wrong here but I can't see it? Where is there meant to be water in that image?

I don't believe there has ever been an expectation that people would be flying over a pond or water? The original concepts just show bare ground.

Dear god, the copy on that page is so badly written and below their usual standard. They also used the term 'precinct' instead of land, sadly following VRTP's lead
You're not wrong. Reads more like something you'd find in a quarterly financial report than something for the public. People want to know about features and additions, not ethereal marketing puffery.

Movie World is still owned by Village Roadshow but the company no longer trades publicly and were bought out by BGH capital. There was very little shake up in management during this transition.

New management is killing the park.
The park's management is largely the same as it's been for the past decade. The only real difference is that they need to please their parent company instead of shareholders.

They have pumped a lot of money into that attraction in recent years with lengthy refurbishments and the boat 'upgrades'. Despite this, they have actually lost overall capacity which is the opposite of what you want to happen. They have little financial incentive to maintain the effects considering all of this.
-
The splash pad is a win. They've replaced a thoroughfare with an all-ages attraction that introduces what I believe is Australia's first interactive animatronic. This will be a genuine memory maker for a lot of families that isn't hidden behind an upcharge or paywall.

Hollywood Stunt Driver 2 - still going after 10 years

That's a great idea. Something similar to 'Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular' but with WB IPs? It could make for a really engaging and dynamic show.
Some smaller live experiences around the park would really help for capacity as well. The horror make up show at Universal Studios Orlando is a great example of a smaller scale show that can eat crowds and only needs a few performers.
