lil' monster

I'm going tomorrow with my friend (16) and my 9 year old nephew. He's never being to a theme park and I just have a feeling he's going to be dragging me on every ride in the park except i've refused to go on the freefall ones-my friend's doing those instead (that is until she sees the height)

H2O zone is the part that has the 6 new slides going in isn't it?

When are the first new thrill slides set to open?

This is probably going to sound like a dumb question and probably isn't really worth opening a thread for but here we go anyway. Does anyone know why the claw doesn't go 306 degrees?

Reptar Coaster, then Eureka Mine Ride. I'm not very interesting!

I have only ever being to Melbourne once and i love it. If a disney land was built in VIC, i would definitely travel there to visit it. However, this would partially be because i have relatives in VIC who i could also see at the same time. I think climate wise, the VIC summers would be better than the QLD summers, but the QLD winters would be better than the VIC winters. I really don't see how climate effects the position of a theme park that much. I wouldn't say i'm not going to Disneyland because it's too cold. I wouldn't really care. But maybe that's just me. If i could put Disneyland anywhere in Australia, i would choose the Gold Coast but this is mainly due to the fact that i live 2 hours away. I also think the Gold Coast is a good location because it already has existing Theme Parks that people visit. If i was an international traveller, i would much rather go to one location to visit 4 theme parks than have to go to 2 seperate locations and having to spend more money on airfares.

SK2, for those of us on this site, such as myself, who have not heard about DW's new thrill ride, would you like to tell us what the rumours are that will make lethal weapon look like the reptar coaster if these rumours are true. (I don't know if that made sense but i think you'll get my drift.)

Are they opening all 7 slides during the xmas holidays or only some of them?

I don't know if anyone out there would agree with me, But after watching the video clip for the crazy frog ringtone a few times, i think the part were he's zooming through the underground tunnels or whatever, being chased by the bad dude, would make a really cool ride. What do you think?

I have also seen a lot of advertisements along the Caboolture train line. They've all said something like Superman: Escape, more powerful than a locomotive.

I would also have to agree with joz. The speed coaster que is miles long and then you get to the top, go over a couple of bumps, go up a hill and then come back down again backwards. Definitely not the best ride. I can't wait for the new rides to open. It's going to be soooo cool. DO you know when they will all be open?

I would definitely have to say the whirlpool. So, so boring.

Does anyone know what snow world's like? Is it any good or is it for kiddies?

Thanks joz. That clears up my question. Is no limits better than RCT3?

I know this is going to sound dumb but what is No Limits? Another computer game?

Just wondering if anyone knows if there's any indoor theme parks in Australia.

Thinking about buying RCT3 and soaked and just wondered if they're worth the money or not. I already own RCT2.

Being a Queenslander i would obviously love to see it built in QLD (if it ever happens that is) but it is understandable as to why Sydney would like a theme park. Even though their poplution is bigger than ours(QLD)they have no theme parks. We have 4 major theme parks (DW, MV, WNW, SW) plus other minor attractions. No matter what state it gets built in (if it ever happens that is) it will still be great to have on in Oz.

I haven't been on Lethal Weapon so of the rides i've been on I would have to say Scooby-Doo Spooky Coaster or Wild Wild West. Batman's not bad either.

I don't think Dreamworld could pull off anything spectacular because apart from people running round in scary suits and scary props, it wouldn't be much different from Screamworld. Maybe Movie World could pull off something good.

Just wondering what everyone's favourite ride at Dreamworld is. I'll start. I'm a bit of a scaredy-cat when it somes to roller-coasters so don't go on Cyclone. I really enjoyed the Runaway Reptar Coaster and the Mine Ride.

The Italian Job ride looks like one seriously awesome ride. It would be really cool if MW got something similar.

It would be great for a theme park to host a halloween themed event don't you think?

I love wnw and can't wait for the new attractions. It's about time they got some new slides. Is the double screamer being moved to another park or has it been demolished?
