Prequel

Do you think they will ever move the movie studio to somewhere else in order to give Movie World extra land? Just a thought. Like i'm talking in the future, but with Village trying to sell the park, that might not work out.

Ocean Parade is already packed with rides, lets give other parts of the park attention. Also, Ocean Parade seems to already be filled on space, be tough to fit in a proper water attraction.

Maybe he should take a indefinite break, not trying to be mean. But he is going to be exposed to stuff like this, since he is dealing with people who are a bit older and you are expected to act kind of like an adult here. I joined these forums when i was quite young, i was 13. Looking back at my older messages, i was not ready to contribute to a community like this. Being younger and having a level of learning disabilities is only a recipe of disaster.

Lets be honest with ourselves, why would we want it? As i said, they are the things of the 90s and are incredibly outdated. There are so much better coaster types that we could add that would be much more thrilling attractions that would not only grab the attention of the public but also people from oversees. Also, this is modern-day Dreamworld, theming isn't the most important thing anymore. If we were to get a boomerang it would be a handy down and just placed somewhere with zero care. Vekoma wants to move away from the image, they do not even make that arrow-stolen track anymore for their newer coasters. I never thought i would have to defend my position on not wanting a Vekoma boomerang. It would honestly be a joke, and make our up and coming industry look like one too.

A boomerang of that kind in my opinion is a step back for the overall industry, they are outdated and speak cheap 90s investments. A modern Vekoma family boomerang might be a good idea, but that isn't the most crowd drawing attraction.

Just wanted to say, i really appreciate people who do this. For people who seriously want to make Wikipedia as accurate as possible, it would take quite a bit of your own time just doing it. So thank you.

Welcome to Six Flags Canberra!

Does Vekoma even make that style of boomerang anymore? Last i remember they were working hard to get as far away from that brand image as possible. Something like the Lech Coaster or even @Jobe's idea would work well.

"Theme Park Worldwide on Youtube!" Also, just wanted to take this opportunity to express that how much does it suck that this will forever be the legacy of the ride. The ride back when i went always had the longest queue in the park, and i had a lot of fun on it. It is a bit of a scary feeling that the ride that i have been on countless times ended with the deaths of four unfortunate people.

I actually really miss the name Cyclone, its still the name i call the ride i suppose.

I originally popped the question in a different chat, but it probably does deserve its own thread. Will we ever see a new rapids ride here in Australia? If so, when?

I don't know if this is the place to discuss this, i really didn't want to start up a whole new thread. But do you think Australia will ever see a new rapids ride? If so, when will it be?

May 25th, i was really enjoying having no juniors around. No kids standing outside my roll class selling KFC hot and spicy for a dollar a pop, whilst also implementing a 'you owe me' policy for the kids with no money.

Dreamworld would have to be careful with the marketing side and what they pick as a water replacement, but yeah, a water attraction is absolutely the way to go. I think we can cross out a rapids right away, would be an absolute field day for the press.

Let me translate to the non-generation z's, he is referring to a meme for a horror game 'Five Nights at Freddy's' that was so successful that it had a particular long line of sequels and spin-offs. I'm not sure on the meme he is referring to, i just know the game was popular a couple of years back. I expect payment by the end of the month.

I think a Gerstlauer Infinity coaster would work really well in Arkham Asylum's space, the ride does not need that much space which is something Movie World might struggle with. Also, on the lines of IPs. It honestly doesn't matter what it is when it is done right. Wild West Falls is very loosely based on the movie, which i don't know many people who have actually seen that movie yet it is one of the most popular attractions at the park. I know the wild west as a whole is a very known concept and easy to market, but the point still stands.

I've started playing Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 recently, mainly OpenRCT2. I was just wondering if anyone recently has played it. I saw it for nothing on Steam, so i decided to purchase. I was born the year after the game was released, so obviously i don't particularly have nostalgia for it. Never the less i am enjoying myself.

I remember seeing the tracks for the ride during my holiday in 2014 when we visited Scenic World, it's finally good to hear the story behind the abandoned tracks.

I went on Arkham once, never again. It was so painful.

I hope they leave some sort of statue or plaque behind for the Tower of Terror II (and the first one i suppose), sad seeing it go.

Still doesn't change the fact that they have a lot of money to spend.

You need a reminder that Disney is one of if not the largest company in the world. As said previously, almost all of what you want them to do, they are already doing. The people behind these parks are experts in their field, they know more than you in tourism and theme park management, what ever you think of, they have already thought of.

You seem to have taken quite the time to write this all out, however i think you have forgotten that Movie-World and Dreamworld already collect data on guest experience, also the people who work their aren't just given the job after an afternoon working at Hungry Jacks, they already have a lot of experience in the field of Tourism. The vast majority of the things you listed, they already do. Obviously you seem to be a bit disappointed over the changes made to the Scooby-Doo ride and the presentation at the beginning of Sky-Voyager, but no need to question their ability to run the park.

All these ideas sound good and all, but closing the park down for anything more than 3 months, spending hundreds of millions of dollars on completely changing the park, and then changing the name sounds like a fantasy. Yes the Dreamworld name has some dirt on it since the unfortunate event, but it also holds nostalgic value. The only thing i think Dreamworld needs is some proper investment and care. What i'd do with Dreamworld is work with what you have. So unfortunately MDMC will be staying. Also bring back something on the lines with Dreamworld Insiders, it'd probably have to be a new cast, but it will be a lot of fun. Trying to keep rides a float for a long period of time is the first thing i would do, and then build a RMC Hydrid, to gain some more guests. I also really loved the idea of nostalgic advertising, it would be really neat.

I don't have the slightest clue on Ardent's and Dreamworld's financial status. But removing and replacing rides is very expensive, so it'd be a slow process. I think just need a big attraction for the thrill seekers, there is no reason to go to Dreamworld these days, the rides aren't bad but they've been there for so long they don't interest the public. But i like the idea of the nostalgic marketing, it would be a good move.
