Efteling is my favourite park, but looking at this make me feel sad. This will alter what is a lovely entrance plaza to be dominated by a new large building. It feels a shame.

The difficulty for me is that the parks are not as I last experienced them in 2014! Universal has had an active downgrade with Twister, Beetlejuice, Disaster and Terminator 2 all gone to be replaced with awful attractions. Hollywood studios would have been a contender, but it has been...

I would be incensed if the vaccinated had to deal with restrictions because of the unvaccinated. Plain and simple. For most, not getting vaccinated is a choice. Freedom to make a choice is different to freedom from the consequences of that choice. Why should the rest of us suffer?

I'm sure there are things I'd rather have (wooden coaster) but honestly I think it looks fab.

It is worth pointing out that to date Saw the Ride and Walking Dead are the only major UK Merlin coasters with an IP currently attached. The others do not: Swarm Nemesis Inferno Stealth Colossus Nemesis The Smiler Wicker Man Th13teen Oblivion Spinball Galactica Vampire Dragon's Fury Rattelsnake

I thought I was right that the B&M hyper rumours were unfounded nonsense.

Hardly a go-to example of dead IPs though given there may be a sequel series.

How is that a dead IP, it was released only months ago?

Volare. I have insider knowledge that it's a Volare.

Hey guys, this is something I've recently completed. Themed to the hit series Squid Game, this is a dark ride / coaster which takes riders through the 6 deadly games.

It feels like a bit of a self-feeding monster. It sounds like a hyper is a strong rumour, but I think that's because enough people are saying it and discussing it, but it's unclear exactly where it started. The more people say it, the stronger it becomes, but it doesn't mean the starting point...

I am still struggling to work out on what basis everyone has concluded it's a hyper coaster, or even anything specific at all, as aren't all these rumours just "he said shee said" heresay?

Is there a chance the track could bend?

I'm sure if I lived near it I'd feel different, but I live in Bournemouth on the South Coast, so it's a long way to go to a park. Whilst in the same country, it takes me less time and less money to reach Efteling and Phantasialand (albeit not during Covid). My big fear is that I'll go there and...

Many, at least in pre-Covid times: - Efteling - my favourite park. Pre-Covid I would go there once a year. I find it to be worth the effort to get there. Great rides and great atmosphere. - Phantasialand - some phenomenal rides and great levels of immersion. - Alton Towers - Massive faff to get...

Probably my most controversial one is Blackpool Pleasure Beach. It's 6-7 hours drive or train for me to get there. I want to go on the historic rides there, but have yet to muster up the time or money to get there. To make the most of it would cost £100s and I'd have to book off time from work...

Hard: Alton Towers: As noted above, surprisingly difficult for such a big park. It's hard enough driving, but public transport is something else! Europa Park: For such a big park the transport links are quite poor really. Ringsheim is a pokey station to have to use. Getting there is an...

1. Stealth - it goes fast...and I like that. Simple pleasures. 2. Nemesis Inferno - a smooth and intense ride which has grown on me. 3. The Swarm - close behind Inferno, it's a great ride, but it lacks the chaos of Inferno. 4. The Walking Dead - I enjoy this a lot actually. It's fun and quite...

My tolerance for G forces has decreased for certain. I still love the rides, but I do find that there are many rides I have to be careful with and pick my times to ride carefully: - Nemesis - Nemesis Inferno - The Swarm (have felt sick after doing this twice in a row...which I regret) - Saw -...

What an absolutely shocking turn of events...
