King Claw - Larger Replacement Intamin Gyro Swing for Dreamworld
Ash replied to Tricoart's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Crane is on site this morning, main pendulum has been removed. -
Wizard of Oz - Movie World Arkham Asylum Replacement
Ash replied to Park Addict 93's topic in Theme Park Discussion
This had nothing to do with Pico Play which I know you aren’t insisting. This was entirely down to budget -
After listening to the whole podcast and the previous Rivertown one where they mention Wizard of Oz precinct. I think both the Peco manager and all the park enthusiast agree with what happened at Movieworld. It’s hardly ever mentioned in both podcast despite being asked.

What ride should replace Doomsday Destroyer?
Ash replied to Prequel's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Mad max dark ride, expand the whole old DC area into a western/Mad Max them. Move all DC statues to the DC area. Remove Justice league and put in a couple of flats themed to DC. -
Wizard of Oz - Movie World Arkham Asylum Replacement
Ash replied to Park Addict 93's topic in Theme Park Discussion
My bottom line is, Rivertown looks like a finished land. Despite them adding more which is good but they should have been added before hand. The land is amazing, I do believe they focused in the end run on Jane’s restaurant. Oz looks bare, and as The Magician said, the socials from both parks are the opposite. Dreamworld are constantly posting videos etc, closures, updates. When was the last time we heard about an update on Scooby Doo, or the Dooms day removal? -
It’s a mouth figure with water coming out. Levi tagged the instagram video of it. I was there Monday and can confirm it was working as with the crystals that day

Went of Superman a couple of days ago in a few years. It has gotten quite rough to say the least. Dispatch times with 2 trains was roughly 5 minutes. Still a great experience with the launch.

Wizard of Oz - Movie World Arkham Asylum Replacement
Ash replied to Park Addict 93's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Maloneys videos are good, and he is on point with this. As everyone has stated, something fell short in regards to the theming etc, they didn’t let the theming company has full access/budget to do this place justice. Didnt realise Arkham theming was still visible in the area which is crazy. The panic was real when Dreamworld announced a soft opening. -
Best food- Jane’s restaurant Best guest experience- Dreamworld Best park operations- without a doubt Dreamworld Best coaster- DC Rivals Best family coaster - Jungle Rush Beat Flat ride - murissippi motors Best themed area- Rivertown Best show- don’t have one Best kids area- Dreamworld Best new attraction- Rivertown Best theme park- Dreamworld. Despite lacking a water ride, and a coaster to match or better rivals, Draamworld is hands down the better park.

King Claw - Larger Replacement Intamin Gyro Swing for Dreamworld
Ash replied to Tricoart's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Went today, temporary fencing all up, all que lines have been taken down, a lot of the “claw” post were removed, already quite a bit has been done. Great to see. Jungle Rush was back to 2 trains, operations were smooth. -
Hahaha just a walk through area is all they ever needed no ride necessary
-
And it’s gone Jaggs Journey just posted this photo

I mean they have already added stuff inside as someone else stated, new crystals that move, the snake is now lit up, I still think more is needed and hopefully coming, maybe a fog affect of the switch track exits? Especially during the day would help with the atmosphere

Surely MovieWorld get some sort of compensation for a terrible ride. Scrap that whole area and make it western theme

Dreamworld Annual Passes - 2024 Price Increase
Ash replied to themagician's topic in Theme Park Discussion
To be honest I use Afterpay all the time, solely for the purpose of them storing nu digital receipts. I know a lot of places now are using a digital receipt system like jbhifi etc. but yes it’s quite handy for that -
Dreamworld Annual Passes - 2024 Price Increase
Ash replied to themagician's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Because out of all the parks, Dreamworld to me has invested more the last few years than any other parks imo. As I’ve stated before the overall quality of the park is amazing, the staff are amazing, the park is huge so your not feeling like your on a Japanese subway train like you do at Movieworld. -
Dreamworld Annual Passes - 2024 Price Increase
Ash replied to themagician's topic in Theme Park Discussion
I think a price increase is warranted -
Are we back to normal? No spam? But yes that’s the only downfall is the storage whilst loading/unloading

Both my 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son were most scared in the temple switchtrack because it was dark and loud. The rest they loved. I think if they added some spotlights like red or green etc to brighten it up it should work. inside the que line they loved all the colours and set pieces.

The slide tower concept needs to change imo, we need something like the old terror canyon weaving through the landscape. I know it’s limited as to what you can do, but even the new kaboom tower is average. Don’t they still have that decent plot of land near the Kamikaze? That’s prime realestate for a good themed slide

Must of run into problems. Will be interesting too see if it opens for the September school holidays. Surely this would be the only attraction they are pumping money into

Probably why Movieworld new precinct barricaded all there ques behind prison black fencing. But he’s sad to see.

Wizard of Oz - Movie World Arkham Asylum Replacement
Ash replied to Park Addict 93's topic in Theme Park Discussion
I mean to be honest the whole area is very generic, considering we have Atlantis at SeaWorld. Yes the emerald city facade is nice but it’s very slapped together. Massive bland green walls, open areas with a few cosmetics. They did say world class, we are far from that. -
I don’t think it’s the Motorcoaster being popular. When I was there a few days ago, the load times are horrible and to no fault of the staff, as we all know it’s the restraint systems. Plus only running one train doesn’t help.
