  1. Was probably my favourite flat at Wonderland - in a close way finish with Wizards Fury It would be fine as an attraction to fill a gap in their offerings - but i wouldnt be taking up valuable showstage realestate with it - it's would be just fine outside. when you only have 2-3 rides operating in your park suitable for anyone over the age of 5 - they are all major.
  2. Nobody wants to see that ride again on the GC. It’s a travelling fair ride essentially. We need an immersive dark ride, not a carnival ride in a room
  3. We can only hope.. And then tear down the whole area, and re-purpose the sound stage. I understand Batman Legacy will be heading off at some point this year, and with it the end of the WB Showcase concept.
  4. ⚡ Prepare to twist, spin and speed along The Flash: Speed Force! ⚡ No Super Hero attraction is complete without captivating theming, with the creative team at Warner Bros. Movie World working diligently to immerse guests in the world of The Flash. ⚡ With lightning-inspired aesthetics, the theming works will continue until late March, setting the stage for an unforgettable adventure into the Speed Force, coming soon to #movieworldaus
  5. The entire area is in disarray, when it could be one of the best themed lands/worlds in our parks.

  7. because the land was far more valuable than the park that sat on it.
  8. It has a lot of cross over with the Dreamworld Markets in terms of food offerings so it may be seen as superfluous. I'm sure there will be something running for the April/Easter holidays however, so i'm sure an announcement wont be too far away
  9. Powering the park with pixie dust is just as likely. I don’t think this is going to generate media attention or a crazy amount of discussion because it’s just not going to happen so it’s not even worth debating the plausibility or ethics of it. It’s beyond pipe dream, pie in the sky stuff.
  10. Gees… now you’ve gone and done it, you’ve reset the activity timeframe so we’ll have to wait even longer now!
  11. Yep, hell even Travis Barker and that Kardashian would have been a better target as they’ve been all over the place with their kids
  12. Not that their social media team is known for accuracy however…
  13. Are they not just screens telling you where you are? as the one at central station says “boarding at central station” and the one at wildlife says “boarding at Wildlife Station”?
  14. I reckon Clark would be better off walking around his theme park and seeing what it looks like himself.... as i doubt he's stepped foot in the place recently based on this. I reckon a star seeing what a shambles the place is in would do more harm than good... embarrassing... Theme giant Village Roadshow tells Taylor Swift if you loved us in 2015, you’ll be stoked on 2024 A Gold Coast’s theme park giant is joining Queensland’s push to attract Taylor Swift for her downtime week by reminding her of the great time she had on the rides nearly 10 years ago. Swift, who has a week off from shows after tonight’s fourth and final Sydney concert before her tour continues in Singapore, had a ball at MovieWorld in 2015. She did multiple rides with actor friend Blake Lively as well as enjoying getting up close and personal with marsupials at Paradise Country. Village Roadshow CEO Clark Kirby said plenty had changed at the parks to give Swift new thrills in the nearly 10 years since she last visited: “We would love to extend an invite for Taylor and Blake to visit our parks and create some more amazing memories with their family and friends. “Our theme parks are the ideal place for some downtime following an intense performing schedule where they can enjoy our world-class rides, attractions, shows and characters,” he said. “Since their last visit in 2015, we have a host of amazing new attractions at Warner Bros. Movie World including the DC Rivals HyperCoaster - the tallest, longest and fastest HyperCoaster in the Southern Hemisphere - which would provide the perfect adrenaline hit. “Over at Paradise Country, we have also welcomed some inquisitive new animals including meerkats and marmosets and they would love to meet Taylor and share some of their conservation efforts.” Mr Kirby’s Village Roadshow invite comes as Queensland clamours to attract Swift and NFL star partner Travis Kelce. Tourism and Events Queensland on the weekend unveiled an audacious bid to convince Swift to have her downtime in the Sunshine State by signalling it would rename stunning Vlasoff Cay on the Great Barrier Reef – unofficially at least – as Tay Cay in a tribute to the music icon. TEQ has offered to put together a ‘Tay Cay’ package with helicopter transfers, a champagne picnic and opportunity to snorkel amongst the stunning coral and marine life. The invite also includes a luxury stay on a nearly exclusive private resort island, with a public ad campaign showcasing what’s on offer in the tourism hotspot until Tuesday. Meanwhile, Mr Kirby said like the rest of Australia his household – including three daughters – had been caught up in the Taylor Swift juggernaut, taking in one of her Melbourne shows. “Hopefully on her next tour she will be here on the Gold Coast performing checking out the new Wizard of Oz precinct at Warner Bros. Warner Bros. Movie World was “Hollywood on the Gold Coast”, he said. “So it makes perfect sense we resonate with superstars. Given our close location to Village Roadshow Studios, we are ideally positioned to welcome some of the biggest stars. But the beauty of Movie World is that every guest who walks through the gates is transported to an environment where they can experience the life of an A-Lister.” https://www.goldcoastbulletin.com.au/news/gold-coast/theme-giant-village-roadshow-tells-taylor-swift-if-you-loved-us-in-2015-youll-be-stoked-on-2024/news-story/cc87c022c600b4adb9e7b55bbb922a45
  15. I reckon it’s code for “off peak shut down to save $$$”
  16. I’m not talking about ride lineup, that’s not the magic magic is atmosphere, interaction, experience it’s all lacking. from dead zones, to ride ops who look and act like they wish they were not there, to lack of upkeep, to closed shops and food outlets. to take one thing in isolation from yesterday - the 3pm parade. It was over and done with in 7 minutes. - no floats stopped, no characters got off floats to interact, half the floats were not there with the characters just walking (no scooby van, no joker, no Supergirl, no justice league), literally just went down turned around and went out the back Where the f**k is the magic in that? I remember 6 or so years back everyone decanting from the floats, dancing, taking photos. I remember Bugs lifting my toddler son up and dancing with him and the joy in my son’s eyes. Nothing now. Gone.
  17. 2 hours here and i’m calling it - movieworld is now the worst theme park in the country, by a decent margin hopefully Oz and and a reopening Scooby make a difference but there is no magic left here
  18. Not a single thing working in Villains area except the killer croc water feature which is on constant run. whats more disappointing for me as a Batman fan is seeing the lack of care and upkeep on the Batman legacy walk thru. genuine movie props scratched up by idiots, but I get you can’t fully control that, but you can use a duster once in a while on the cowls… horrendous
  19. I don’t know but this place needs “something” thought we’d pop in this afternoon, my first daytime visit in about 12 months. Dead, less people and far less atmosphere than dreamworld. once you pass Gotham burgers, it’s a dead zone to Wild West with not a single thing open except the carnival games which no one was using. Walked past maybe 10 people. Wild West queue 10-15mins despite the open attraction list being small. 2 years ago on a 30 degree summer weekend you’d be waiting 90mins plus
  20. Not sure if its been posted but it’s obvious why Vintage cars isn't up and running
  21. I won’t. I’ve just managed to master shitting rainbows, but the flying thing is proving a challenge…
