Yessss Apocalypse. I’ve given up getting WCR in November but I’d have been pissed if it meant Apoc was shut as well.

The EIGHT MINUTE DISPATCHES on the kiddie! EIGHT. MINUTES. A dispatch took. eight. minutes. That was the peak issue for that park. Honestly it was worse than China. My favourite part of the day was that girl faceplanting during the midday running of the bulls. That’ll teach her.

Two weeks shipping from Malaysia would be like, record time, it’s about a month. But I very much doubt they even intend to open this before the Summer, Flamingo don’t do early openings for new rides

Yeah I wish they’d build an Intamin! Maybe even a Woodie? Could call it Balder!

The hotel and water park are happening, but don’t hold your breath for a hyper. The park told us this weekend they’ve got no plans for a coaster for at least five years, and that plot of land is right next to some houses so realistically can’t have anything loud (this is why Balder has the...

Yh thanks we all read the post three above yours. Not the best year, but SFGADv’s looks amazing and I still respect the mentality of everyone gets something.

93. Valkyria, Liseberg It was really pretty excellent, and good to complete the European set again!

Because money is required to buy things. As a business you put the money in the things that stand to make you the best return. For Drayton, that's not thrills. Thomas Land... isn't its own theme park? So I'm not sure why it needs to be able to stand on its own? It fits in as part of the...

I do love how people are like ‘you can’t survive being a younger family park who’s gonna go!’ - when one of the most financially successful parks in the country is... Legoland? It making good business sense and being whet YOU want is two different things, and there’s obviously plenty of people...

Kinda related - is this construction why Apocalypse is closed at the moment? I’ll be pissed if I go in November and this still isn’t done and that’s shut because of it too ha.

I honestly don’t get the surprise? Disney we’re actively campaigning for people NOT to go, and then people don’t go and everyone’s like omg it’s a failure! There was a 3% drop in visitors - ok that sounds bad, but there was a 10% increase in spend per head (read the article a few days so may be...

Oh yeah I do forget how when Oz’Iris was built everyone compared it to Batman...

OK, so why not compare it to one of the tonnes of other rides that have been built like that since Maverick? Why not compare it to the actually comparable ride, Soaring With Dragon. The Maverick comparison is stupid and comes from a need to link everything back to Cedar Point even when it’s...

Soaring with Dragon has an absolutely ****ing gigantic dive loop mate dunno how much more ‘proper’ you want it. Also I’ll slap the next person that says it’s like Maverick because it has launches and a 95 degree drop. It’s nothing like Maverick in any way, totally different style of ride.

Going through them alone can be vile - I remember I went through on at Djurs a few years ago by myself and it was pitch black and just absolutely terrifying. Great though. They’ve definitely gone too far at times - but I’m thinking more of the ‘extreme’ stuff rather than actual mazes. I’m...

Nowadays people just make up their counts so you just do you boo. I count portable rides but my rule is if I can’t prove two of the same model are different (usually by owner but sometimes you can just know) then I will only count one of each model.

By original do you mean Flying Fjord Dragon? Because yeah, that one is fab, so when I went on JT I was super excited - until it jackhammered it down the drop. Those rides need a lot of maintenance or they get trash fast, so I’m going to say that the hot, humid climate where that one is...

This is a country where they’ll still run one train on rides with a two hour queue on a holiday weekend. Trust me, they have no intention of ever running two trains on this. It’s sad, I did think Disney might give at least some of the chains a kick up the arse but, nah

Yeah Icon is 100% the best coaster, but that’s really not hard to achieve!

Jungle Trailblazer in Zhuzhou is probably the worst modern woodie I’ve done, dunno why they put those trash trains on it. Like everyone else has said, Smiler. Thunderbolt is trash too. I hate the ****ing Sky Rocket IIs as well.
