  1. From Dreamworlds Facebook page ”The Queensland Government today announced it will inject $2.7million dollars into Dreamworld, helping expand the Corroboree area with a world-class research facility. The Dreamworld Future Lab will be the first of its kind in Queensland and will help support Dreamworld’s conservation drive. See it begin to take shape soon.”
  2. Dreamworld have said in response to comments on previous posts “they would love to have Big Brother back” Channel 10 have also been doing a lot of test and piloting this year... who knows? Celebrity Big Brother? I’m personally a huge fan of BBAU so, although doubtful I would love to see a return!
  3. Not sure if this has been mentioned but Dreamworlds opening hours are 9-6 until the 13th of January.
  4. You need to remember Dreamworld also attracts a lot of international guests that would find this type of thing interesting. If i were at a local park in let’s say Japan i would love to learn more about their culture history through show and dance. Still good to see dreamworld are adding/changing shows
  5. From a customer service perspective I couldn’t agree more. Since the first time I went to MW and DW to the most recent, I feel like their staff are on complete different sides of the chart. at dreamworld, staff are always friendly and polite, love a conversation and clearly like or atleast act like they like their job. Asking me how my day has been, what my favourite ride was, where im from, even coming up to me and my friends and asking to take photos of us on our phones. Whereas each time at movie world it just seems like a robotic feeling, no acknowledgment, conversations, some of the times even no smiles from their staff. The only way I get the same type of conversation or acknowledgement is by doing one of their electronic surveys whilst waiting in line. (personal opinion and experiences)
  6. I hope they stay consistent with their prices and don’t change them to frequently from here on out. I am all for a little price boost as I think the parks are worthy of it, especially with the inclusions and extra events included. I was going to comment on how expensive they were, but that was until I realised you can still purchase 7 and 14 day tickets (for holidays, Otherwise $200pp for a family of 4 would be ridiculous!) In reality you’re only going to be buying the annual pass if you plan on visiting each park multiple times across the year and most likely attend the included events, in which case the money is worth it. Warm welcome to the One Pass
  7. It’s how the article referred to it, hence why it’s in quotations update: I’ve changed the title
  8. There is a reason for this to have happened, it’s not like it’s a common occurrence. The reason for the post if more for the media already reacting to it negatively without a response from Dreamworld themselves.
  9. A video had emerged on Instagram of a tiger being hit across the head. Radio media such as Nova is already using it for News, https://www.nova919.com.au/news/confronting-video-emerged-handlers-abusing-tiger-dreamworld Video, https://instagram.com/p/BbPGuYSFXpn/
  10. Dreamworld must know the upcoming month is going to be shitty for park visitors, they are offering 30 days for $30 again and season passes at kid prices again. Unfortunate for someone like me, who literally just spent $90 on a season pass for my holiday next week.....
  11. We've basically all established what makes this map so bad, but after looking at the map and comparing it to maps from dreamworld, Disneyland, cedar point etc, I've found three common things that makes this map so shitty. The first being the shadows. Most other park maps do not have shadows, or if they do they are very subtle and almost invisible. I have no idea why the tones and shadows used are so dark, nor the reason the shadows are facing so strongly to the south of the park (correct me if i'm wrong) it's like 6am if the sunrise was in the north. The second being the content shown. Is the carpark a new world class attraction now? WHY do they need to show their carpark, sheds, restricted areas and trees! It takes up half the map. Almost no other park maps in the world show their carparks, let alone that much of it. And the last is the scale. As pointed out previously. Generally all other park maps do not use a 1:1 scale. I love how the Cedar Point maps use scale and show height. The rides are kept really small except for generally the first drop, making it easy to notice but giving more room to show accurate resemblance to their paths and walk way. The bare minimum they should do is turn the shadows down and rotate the park to the positioning it use to be in to remove some of the carpark, sheds and backlots.
  12. As interesting as it is to see Dreamworld try new things like this every now and again, I really wish they put some more thought into the lyrics rather than letting us know its a 'thrill' all day and all night (even though the park is only open until 5pm?) followed by several 'ohs...' Unless this song wasn't actually recorded for dreamworld particularly?
  13. Reminds me of the old comedy/dramatic teasers Dreamworld use to do for TOT
  14. I thought the exact same thing! Even though the picture obviously doesn’t look like a shark it doesn’t really help when it doesn’t look like a tiger either
  15. Glucose (in milks) and fructose (in juices and fruits) sugars act differently in the body to sucrose sugars (in soft drinks) I think juices (maybe something like boost juice) is a good idea, wouldn’t immediately be more popular than the coke range of products but atleast it’s more option. If you have just a McDonald’s chances everyone’s going to get McDonalds If you have McDonalds, KFC, Subway, Hungry Jacks, Zambrero and a fish and chip place people have options right in their face to choose from, rather than the one choice
  16. Village Roadshows new video talks about the medias false news about its ride stoppages
  17. It would be so cool to be themed to Bizarro because its Superman's Villain and Superman is probably the best known ride at MW, I feel like it would fit well of the recent theme of 'villains being better.' However, it would feel kind of weird walking from Supervillains Unleashed, to Main Street, through part of the DC superhero are, back to another Supervillain ride? It could always be Superwoman? Although she is often red and blue she can be referenced with pink sometimes? Also upon a google search I discovered a character called Huntress and another one called Starfire, which although would make no sense, is still an option for the colour scheme? Personally, as much as I hate to say it, my money is on Suicide Squad...
  18. I noticed the trailer for Wonder Woman was released today, if the coaster was to be themed to this, now would be the best time to announce it while the hype of the movie is fresh (no pun intended)
  19. I don't really care if they renovate or build a new waterpark but they should definitely make use of the space they have. The water park hosts quite a large area with so much potential if removed but also so much potential with a Reno or a new waterpark. I personally, would really like to see some new rides (don't really care what they are.) I understand SeaWorld is targeted at animals so I can't really say "why don't they have many rides." But to grow rate and generate more even numbers of age groups I think investing in one or two rides in a 5 year plan should be crucial
  20. Although something over 300 feet tall would be cool and give an immediate visual perspective of the park IMO after the first drop is when you can start to enjoy yourself. AA is a great roller coaster - it's not all about the height. GL is a great roller coaster - not about the height. As much as I would like to see a 300 foot high coaster I'm relatively happy with whatever they build, aslong as it is both visually pleasing (which movie world always delivers) and physically enjoyable to ride.
  21. My hearts are with friends, family and dreamworld staff going through all of this at the moment
  22. With IAAPA just under a month away maybe MACK will announce something that will clear up speculation? Not necessarily "hey we're building this at Movie World on the Gold Coast" but maybe announce something that could help us put a few puzzle pieces together?
