What ride should replace Doomsday Destroyer?
Brad2912 replied to Prequel's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Spotted- Doomsday and Lex Luther have moved to greener pastures and are now just outside Kansas watching you while you ride Twister. The immersion is immense. maybe they’re going to chuck them in a maze for FNs… -

Who said there were less people in it? Dreamworlds “sold out” capacity could very well be larger than Seaworld or Movieworlds -

To be fair, it was a pass holder only event so the GP couldn’t buy tickets… Movieworld gets very little of my money. I buy a one-pass each year, sure, but I never buy meals at Movieworld as I see no benefit to spending an entire day there with their operations so I’ll take my son early for a couple of rides on opening, or late for a couple on closing. With the exception of the white Christmas buffet, MW hasn’t got a cent from me outside of the initial upfront on the annual pass in about 3 years. I’ll do full days at SW and WnW however, and that’s more so for the reason I purchase an annual pass -

Movieworld needs to be open longer due to their horrendous operation and cycle times… that extra 1.5 hours of trading time means guests can fit in 1 extra ride…. -
What ride should replace Doomsday Destroyer?
Brad2912 replied to Prequel's topic in Theme Park Discussion
There are photos showing the wires all roughly cut to the arms prior to dismantling. When have we seen a ride being refurbed entirely removed from site, all ride signage removed, and a large proportion of surrounding theming removed? Coupled with its horrible downtime, maintenance issues and cycling, i think it’s a safe bet to say DD is not returning -
Rebel Coaster Incident Investigation Concluded
Brad2912 replied to Naazon's topic in Theme Park Discussion
The line is determined by the platform the item is being shared on, and what the owners/moderators deem suitable/acceptable. Given the video was relevant to the topic, I have no issue with it being posted, however I would have prefaced it a warning and description rather than just “here’s a video of the incident”, however its actual sharing - I think is fine - and I imagine the people making the decisions on this forum agree or it wouldn’t still be there- 40 replies

It was down between about 12:30 and 1pm when we tried to ride it. Not sure when it went down, or when it re-opened as we left the area -
JR at night is such a great experience. Eyes light up on all the bats they have added through the indoor section. Water feature illuminated. Looks like the big jewel over the entrance will light up (not yet). Also some work being done externally that’s being covered currently

Brad2912 replied to Prequel's topic in Theme Park Discussion
We all want to see a new dark ride at MW, but the reality is if you jump forward a decade, we’ll still be wanting one. The best to hope for would be a renewal/retheme of JL. -
Only went to the 8:30pm (final) show and there was plenty all throughout the final song
-
Despite the website stating to the contrary, the Aquacolour shows did have fireworks - i’d actually say more than previous years…

Brad2912 replied to Park Addict 93's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Probably because JR looks finished. Even if they hadn’t of added what they have since opening day, and continue to add, it was still a well themed immersive attraction. What they are adding now just elevates it further. WoZ isn’t immersive once you step outside that internal queue area. And let’s be frank, it never will be. VTP isn’t going to put millions retrospectively into adding theming to the ride envelopes and surrounds. The most we can ever hope for is some shade sails. -

Great video, with all very valid and real concerns/explanations -
Dismantling started on doomsday destroyer
Brad2912 replied to Lmapaus's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Literal zero chance -
If that’s is the case, I am 100% supportive of that decision but they should be transparent about it. No one is going to complain if they gave that reasoning. instead they gave this, which just comes across as code for “we want to save money”
-
Only just realised that fireworks have also been removed from the Carnivale Aquacolour Show this year. VTP driving more nails into their evening events…

DW really keep kicking goals with guest service and satisfaction. No one would have expected them to put on another night for free just because the weather was lousy. Kudos to Greg and the team there, absolutely setting the standard
-
Think this is a no brainer for some extra revenue for DW, and exposure to Rivertown for people visiting the markets to hopefully encourage them to buy a pass
-
Leviathan was supposed to have waterfalls too - seems a common inclusion in artist impressions/mock ups. whilst I would be impressed by their inclusion if they come to fruition, I’m not expecting them
