    I'm curious as to how old you were when Wonderland closed TWENTY YEARS AGO next month, so that I can fully judge your views on this point...?

    Yea fair enough hahah, I was 9 when they closed.

    ultimately this is where your comparison makes no sense to me because for all their flaws Movie World IS building stuff as opposed to nothing. So they are doing the bare minimum to keep people coming back.

    Valid points. I didn't know that Wonderland Sydney's last major ride/attraction was the "Aussie Wildlife Park," which opened in 1996. (according to what I have researched, feel to let me know if I'm wrong). 

    My views have been changed. 

  2. Yea this is disappointing and embarrassing. This is poor management by VRTP. Lols Movie World at the moment is reminding me of early 2000's Wonderland Sydney. 

    I had the unlimited membership from 2016 to 2023, prior to that I had the yearly pass for several years. It will be long time until I will be back at VRTP and I don't know if WOO and Scooby is enough for me to spend my money at VRTP.

  3. Or for an alternative if you are ever in NSW, Jamberoo has 2 trap door slides. Jamberoo is a much better park overall in my opinion. 

    These some are my reasons:

    - majority of rides have a height requirement of 100cm, (120cm for funnel Webb, perfect storm and stinger) perfect with families of younger children. 

    - Better variety of slides and attractions including non water attractions (mini golf, chair lift, BOBSLEDS) 

    - Lots of picnic area and BBQ's for guest. 

    If anyone does go to Jamberoo there is a great burger shop 15mins away in Albion Park called Sneaky Burger. 

  4. I'm from Sydney, was set to go this year for the first time. That was until VRTP doubled their membership price and I decided to cancel it. Had the membership from the very start. Carnivale has never appealed to me. 

    I would never pay full price to go to Carnivale but would consider half price discount if family and friends were going. 

    If I did go, my main reasons would be riding leviathan, jet rescue and the aqua light show.

    "Shed: The ride"

    HAHAHAHAHA what a name. Yea it was kinda cool. My favourite part would be all the excited guest who didn't know the ride had been gutted. Lols theit reactions afterwards were great. Especially when it was someone who had been on the ride many times to then talk it up to their friends and afterwards left completely disappointed and confused.

    Ahh just like this site and VRTP then?

    My personal opinion is the parkz wesite is fair with the once off occasional nose browning towards VRTP. The forums however seem balanced between DW & VRTP. 

    If you look at Parkz last 10 theme park news articles, five are press releases from VRTP and one is an article for VRTP. One is a press release for DW and one is an article for Dreamworld. One press release for Aussie World and one article for Gumbuya. 

    It is worth noting only one of the the parkz news articles is from last year. Mabye the news articles are no longer a priority or they no longer receive press releases or most likely they are not needed anymore. With regular and consistent updates which are mostly accurate from the likes of @Ogre and @themagician as well as others, are parkz news articles even needed anymore.

  7. I was at Luna Park on Sunday and there has been lots of work being done to Wild Mouse. Heaps of the track has come down and is being stored at the front of the wild mouse store. Most of the inside of Hungary horse is blocked of with some track pieces in the back corner.
