  1. I got a Nikon D90, complete Seinfeld collection, 3 more seasons of 'Married with Children', a CD, a pen and $100. Not too bad I guess... EDIT: I left out the best part: Chocolate!
  2. CoasterTube -- TPR TV just doesn't sound right. Why don't you combine the two? TPR Tube
  3. I saw normal unleaded for 86c per letre today.
  4. Thanks. Great video! Quick question: whose that little fellow in the video? He looks a bit like Robb. I'd say it's his son, but I haven't seen him in any recent videos/photos. I haven't been a TPR member for very long so can anyone tell me who he is? - Ash
  5. Well, I think it would be super cool because you'd be being pushed back into your seat while dropping. You'd also feel weird because no other tower drops like that and you would be hanging out 1-2 metres from the track. Also, due to the fact 4 extra supports would be connected to the tower itself, hopefully it could go higher than the current drop rides.
  6. Drop Tower Design: This design allows the cars to move forward while dropping. Forward moving forces, while dropping, will add to the thrill aspect of this ride. Also, imagine hanging 1-2 metres of the track.
  7. Super cool videos! How do the coasters over there stack up compared to their US counterparts?
  8. Ok, get this... Last week I was in the line for Batwing and someone was smoking! That's right, smoking, in a packed line. I was just about to say something to him but he was with a big group of 'large' guys and I'm not dumb...
  9. On Thursday the 30th October, I attended Movie World's annual Halloween Family Fun Night. To no surprise, the place was packed... and to think of those poor soles who were visiting Friday night. The first ride I went on was Batwing, and oh boy, I can tell you that it had to have been some of the slowest operation of that ride I have ever encountered. Nonetheless, the airtime made up for the snail-pace operation. Then onto the not-so-Scary Maze... Now I can tell you that the name wasn't the only thing lame about this attraction, if you could call it that. It literally was just temporary fencing with some fancy lighting and fog added. No live actors to be seen, but I just figured that they may have fallen asleep like I was about to do. After that awful attraction, I needed something scary, real scary. The first time I went through the Fright Zone it seemed like there were no actors and the layout was boring... but I knew that couldn't be possible, so I did it again, and can I tell you that I'm glad I did! Here's a tip, if you see a group of teenage girls enter, follow them, because it is soooooo funny to hear them scream like little kids. Then back onto Main Street were I saw all those scary live actors and some grown men acting like, well, crazy people. The same people who I saw smoking in the Batwing line earlier! The Zombie Laser Skirmish was a real letdown, $5 for ten minutes... but hey, I'm sure there's many Luna Park fans who'd be happy to visit Movie World and fork out more money. On my way back up to Superman I encounter a little 'extra' attraction not mentioned on the park map. It was pretty much just Police Academy's old props made to look like they were in a war zone with some blood and guts added. Did I mentioned there was that random spider back to 'scare' (cough) guests? Onto Superman, where the operation was slow as well, although this one was due to one train operation – don't ask me why this is the case. Overall, a good night out for the general public or coaster nerds alike, and a sure-fire way for Movie World to grab some extra cash for that B&M coaster we're all wishing for.
  10. Who here has paid their deposit for next year's trips? I have paid for the West Coast, how about you?
  11. Yeah heeps of times! But it's always been court ordered.
  12. I think I went over my internet quota just viewing this thread BTW, thanks for the cool update!
  13. It looks like a RCT park in the top picture and an airport in the rest.
  14. Superman Escape at WBMW. Airtime galore http://movieworld.myfun.com.au/Attractions/Rides/SUPERMAN-Escape.htm
  15. Wow, Six Flags' prices are now $0.4 US, down 10.23%. Scary!
  16. Crazy. Maybe he should try that on a Spaceshot.
  17. The Wipeout at Dreamworld, Australia.
  18. One train operation! That's my main hate! I also hate it when parks don't open up early to let ticket lines go down faster.
  19. Wow, That's good! I'll have to buy the song off iTunes
  20. Here's the latest update.
  21. I'm excited too! I can't wait. What would be better? West Coast or the 2 smaller US trips in one?
