Linus1995 14 Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 Just out of general curiosity, what land does Movieworld/Wet'n'Wild actually own? I've always wanted to know how far back from the highway they own land. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MickeyD 938 Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 55 hectares rings a bell.. that's the park, studios and land space across and including wnw Quote Link to post Share on other sites
themeparkgc 38 Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 ^^ Are you thinking of a giant Halloween maze through the abandoned studio for this week's challenge? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Linus1995 14 Posted November 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 themeparkgc are you serious!! if we had the same idea then wow... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
themeparkgc 38 Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 All I'll say is I've been looking a satellite imagery tonight... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gazza 2,254 Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 The land owned by Village is literally the grey area on this map: http://maps.google.com.au/maps?f=q&sou...033023&z=16 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Linus1995 14 Posted November 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 cheers gazza! lots of space for rollercoasters Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bmull19 37 Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 NEVER knew Movie World had that much land?! (well Warner Village). That's a lot more than Dreamworld (well Ardent) own now! :| But I think there's still a lot more 'free' land left for Dreamworld & Whitewater World as a lot of Warner's is taken up by the paddocks for Outback spectacular, isn't it? And yes, I'm using this land for my idea too, but I don't think I actually have the same idea.... Or maybe I do? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
themeparkgc 38 Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 a lot of Warner's is taken up by the paddocks for Outback spectacular, isn't it? If you switch to satellite view on the map above you can see the little clearing for Paradise Country on the bottom left. You can see that the paddocks for AOS don't take up more than the size of WNW and there is still two to three times the size of WNW spare land in the forest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rappa 2,548 Posted November 8, 2010 Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 (edited) Problem being that you see all of that vacant land at the bottom of the area but it's useless for park expansion just because it's so far away. Movieworld is literaly surround on all sides by something, creek, studios, admin, car park, so it doesn't really have anywhere to go without the studios giving up space and thats not likely to ever happen. And just FYI the studios are anything but abandoned at the moment. The entire complex is full to the brim with a number of productions. Whilst they may be empty at times, you can't count on this, as was seen with Saw Maze this year, it was evicted from the studios as a production came in.

Linus1995 14 Posted November 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 Righto djrappa, thanks for letting us know about the studios. I'll find somewhere else in that case for it to be a more plausible idea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
