That's it.  I have had enough with all these new rides.   All I want is a new seating area.

Best I can do is a show stage with upward seating that you can occasionally walk though

[Arkham asylum replacement theming??]

For immediate release to the public: Movie World will have a new ride, it will have a colour and you can ride that ride. Coming Soon™

At least the theming will be better than The Rock.

You're right, we get a line of rock

I wanted to give you a positive reaction but since Parkz now decided how positive I can be in a day, you will be getting nothing. 

Surely it's gotta be easier now that you don't even have to decide how positive you can be?

The queue is the snake.

The train is the snake.

The station is the snake 

It's the snake, It's the snake.  If you can't deliver a good theme, at least make it the snake and give me something to look at.(😁)

Theming is the snake 

 

Yeah, I have no idea either 

[Steel Taipan Construction - Dreamworld Mack launched roller coaster]

Look, we’d all love a path that looks like a metal snake has slithered across it and left steel scales behind but I think a patterned concrete path was mentioned as it’s more likely when you consider the level of themeing we usually see at the GC parks 

[Steel Taipan Construction - Dreamworld Mack launched roller coaster]

Why would the snake themed ride having a snake skin themed path not make sense thematically? 

[Dreamworld’s BuzzSaw is Retiring]

Maybe they learned from Wipeout to not pour all of their money into keeping a ride operating when it shouldn't be anymore. At this point, any money they spend on it would not result in any form of return on investment. 

[Dreamworld’s BuzzSaw is Retiring]

At least they are trying to claw back some funds from it instead of just selling it for its weight in scrap steel.

Chuck down a paper template. Chuck down coloured pigment. Pull up the paper template. You've got a snake skin path

I'm sure all the parks do this type of thing.

All big businesses do this type of thing. It's how the rich stay rich and whatnot

By 2032 VRTP might have finally made that big announcement that's coming "soon"!

And they still wont have removed Arkham to make room for it

Isn't that just their current setup? 

[Intamin Rapids Accident At Adventureland, Iowa]

Probably the lack of inflation mixed with the raft taking on water. That'll help a raft flip if it hits a rapid while scraping along the bottom of the trough

Just pull a Eureka and pretend it doesn't exist for 10 years... Oh wait, they already did that with Buzzsaw

Often fasteners are specifically excluded from the contract and the buyer must source ones of the correct spec. (Or the manufacturer might include them as an optional extra cost)

The manufacturer is inspecting the ride anyway so there shouldn't be issues of the wrong ones being used.

 

Fun Fact: When you buy a water slide they don't come with supports.

Okay kids, check out our newest ride, the flat slide! It's 5cm of water that you walk through. 

[Dreamworld’s BuzzSaw is Retiring]

Good to know it's going down for maintenance afterwards. Maybe they can get it back up and running for this time next year so they can announce it retiring again

If you go hunting for photos of Boomerang during construction you will see it had the same ground based support work. They have since covered that up. One can assume the same will occur for BD 3.0

But they might choose not to however, it is up to them. For instance wild mouse does not have much of its ground based support work covered up.

It's still pretty interesting to see coaster supports bolted to a metal frame instead of being embedded in the ground. It also keeps the "travelling carnival" feel of Luna Park too so it would fit well.

Holy shit, they are moving the claw to the main street toilets

Even 18 months in, most people's general hygiene out in public is pretty pathetic. If that's what we're relying on, we're doomed.

Well, I guess a few unwashed people outweigh vaccinations and masks. Everyone, have a shower or you'll get COVID
