It baffles me that the station is located adjacent to both Katanga Canyon and Mutiny Bay, and yet they seem to have decided on a Gloomy Woods theme? Where is the logic in that Merlin??
This could literally have been marketed as a perfect pirate themed family coaster, rather than another failed attempt at marketing a horror themed family coaster. And when it fails to interest a huge crowd of people like the Smiler did, that'll be modern wooden coasters written off for the UK!
They haven't learned that the Smiler sold well not because of the gimmick, but because of the huge mess of track it has. It LOOKS good, and therefore sold well. It wasn't any of the BS marketing they did. It sold purely on looks. It's big, has a lot of track, it's twisty, it goes upside down a lot. Thats what the GP think makes a 'good ride'. They don't give a carp about gimmicks. Unless it's something that you can make a viral video out of, the GP just don't give a ****.
