I couldn't help myself...

Hilarious.

Knob head.

Now that's a chin.

 

[Sandman]

It's a chin off!

Knob head.

And back to you!

The awkward moment comparing people's chins is more interesting than this entire project.

Well hold on now...

If it's being suggested that this is only a small version of the final statue, that means there's an even bigger, more majestic chin yet to come. That's certainly pretty interesting to me.

Now I can't help but think the train will drive into the open chin of a giant Wickerman...
Or will it be up the nose and through the ears?

Theme park opening date for next year has been confirmed as 17 March.
I wonder if it's safe to assume the ride will be ready or if we'll get a repeat performance of Smiler etc.

GCI are pretty reliable with their ride constructs though right? Seeing as this is just a run of the mill ride, there should be no reason they can’t have it open.

 

[Swat]

The entire structure is basically up and just needs to be tracked. Going into the off season it’s mainly the electronics that need to be installed so there should mean it is finished early and they have more time to fully theme and test it.

Pretty sure I saw this as an intro video to a death metal band years ago....

 

[Will]

I'd like to think the hooded figures are an homage to the classic Nemesis promo from all those years ago, certainly what it reminded me of.

The rest looks like a trailer for a really **** horror film.

Nice shot of the woodlice though.

It seems creepy without being freaky.
I think it's fine. British usage of the word "fine".

 

[Lofty]

I actually like the new video.

 

[SilverArrow]

Anyone else not bothered about watching all the videos and lead up to it? I just want to know if it will actually be good or not and I know they won't tell me that haha.

Will be hard to get testing videos I think unfortunately.

Not bothered this time around. I was much more excited about the Smiler but I was five years younger then
