    USJ | Flying Dinosaur | B&M Flying Coaster

    Well that's the most perturbed looking dinosaur I've ever seen. Looks thrilled and not that scary.... Could of at least had it's beak open?

    "Now Showing"

    "Now Showing" Went to the cinema and watched Deadpool this morning. I heard a lot about it and my expectations were raised. But its a fun movie, not amazing, but good fun! It has some brilliant 4th wall breaks, best one alluding to a lack of other xmen in the film. There are lots of laughs but...

    "Now Showing"

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JINqHA7xywE I can't quite make up my mind on what to think of this trailer? However the ghosts look way over polished, needs to be more subtle....

    VR-Coaster virus hits Six Flags

    Re: VR-Coaster virus hits SixFlags According to a quick Google search the Samsung VR headsets cost $400 each. You'll probably need spares in case some break so maybe around 50-70 headsets so you're already at over $20k just for the headsets! Imagine all the IT networking, support and adaption...

    X- VR Headsets

    With VR headsets slowly becoming the 'next big thing' on roller coasters would X at Thorpe Park benefit from this technology? As it could make theme of 'machines taking over' theme work to it's favour with the VR headsets? Unless that theme is changed, i.e. Galatica with Air. (unsure if this...

    YAY Merlin!

    What will make it more a kick in the teeth is that the tickets cost £52 (but likely pay some discounted rate online etc) it will lead to a lot of unsatisfied people. But we'll only know half way through the season or after seasons close what the effect will be, especially with the Smiler re-opening.

    Roller Coaster TV Programs and Other Related Videos

    That was a really good documentary, I did see it floating around Twitter/Instagram the other day between Screamscape and another account. But as the poster above said the Vekoma/B&M/Intamin spite was quite obvious in places, probably just a USA v Europe situation. But Arrow definitely left a...

    Cedar Point | Valravn | B&M Dive Machine

    That dive loop looks amazing. Being on the outer seats should make that so fun

    3 hour long queues in the heat and you've paid €40 for the privilege.

    I'm guessing you've not seen Life of Brian?

    UK Referendum on EU Membership for 23 June Announced

    Someone actually made a EU In argument with the "What have the Romans ever done for us? scene from Life of Brian https://giant.gfycat.com/SilkyBoringHor ... fminer.gif Won't show for some reason. Link will have to suffice.

    Favourite Disney Song

    Such a dark song (best villain song after In the Dark of the Night). I always enjoy the villain songs as they have to be well written to set the scene, Be Prepared in the Lion King is a good one.

    Go Ape for Chessington WoA, summer 2016

    For a year which will be critical for Merlin after the Smiler incident this is a bit of a kick in the teeth! Especially for a family friendly park! Families call the entry to my work which is £1 cheaper than that! Rip off for what it is.

    Universal IOA | Incredible Hulk | B&M Retrack

    Maybe it'll change to being floorless trains? But that would not need the track strengthening alone, maybe it's 'bigger' to cope with its near year round usage?

    Walibi Holland | Lost Gravity | Mack Rides mega coaster

    That one car issue of being zippy and slow on the inversions and hills will really play to this rides strengths. Exciting stuff.

    Alton Towers' Galactica VR coaster/Rollercoaster Restaurant

    Re: Alton Towers submits planning permission I just don't get the re-theme, as it's not as if Battlestar Galatica is massive in this country? In the US maybe, and I would've thought the re-theme would be less, subtle? Like having the 'tunnel' or 'portal' placed on the actual tunnels under the...

    Is there a spider perching at the top?! Looks so odd, like it's not even symmetrical?
