Phantasialand Discussion Thread

Agreed! -
One can only dream. First off Welcome to the site! I think the biggest problem is the people who not not the die-hard harry Potter fans or theme park enthusiasts, and Elissa summed it up perfectly with her mom, is the way it's being advertised makes it seem like it's a whole new park being built instead of another Island (regardless of it's actual size). While I doubt it'll lead to miles of angry guests complaining, I do feel a lot of those "not in the know" will be slightly disappointed by it's size. I like the you also equate Disney with baby rides only LOL!

^ and ^^ Keep in mind that is a completely different set then the one guests will go through when it finally opens so don't even count on it looking like that aside from the screens. This is just a mock up, I'm sure for fine tuning the film while the real attraction is being built, one of the advantages of having "empty" sound stages around, get double the amount of work done in half the time. Thanks for posting this, it looks like a lot of fun, even though I *KNOW* they'll use this as yet another opportunity to squirt people with water!

^They say they're filming a documentary about entry level jobs (or seasonal jobs as the last episode did) to explain the cameras and sudden appearance of this person on the job for a day. I don't think it's scripted, but I do think they knew the right people to choose (everyone has a freakin' sob story!) And may take a few takes of the CEOs to get them to say something camera worthy.

I don't normally come into this thread, but I had to share this video. It's a shot for shot remake of "After Today" the opening number from A Goofy Movie and it's awesome.

Can someone explain to this American what watershed means? I assume due the addition of the actual girl in the post watershed video it has to due with the time of day/ night it can be shown? I really like the commercials and it gives enough way without completely giving everything away lol. -
Alton Towers Discussion Thread
RCFreak replied to Ed's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I think for non-enthusiasts (and a lot of enthusiasts like myself), it's far more scary to have that little "omg" moment before the big drop to let you know something normal is not going on. Tower of Terror at DCA does the same thing and it definitely puts you in an entirely different mind set then just a drop by itself would. It makes your mind over think things, like if it can do that what else will happen. Seems to me it might be able to get reprogrammed down the line as Tower of Terror in Florida has to keep it "fresh" down the line and a whole new thing to market depending on if they can change the effects inside as well if they wanted to. -

Universal Studios Singapore Discussion Thread
RCFreak replied to Adriel's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^I don't know if I'd say it looks better as it's basically the same ride as the other Jurassic Park rides, but I will agree that the ending is pretty lackluster. -

^I'm about 99% sure that's their Vekoma Motorbike coaster Booster Bike. -
Toverland Discussion Thread
RCFreak replied to turbolaaf's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
This can only be a good thing for Toverland as it really was a great little park. I'd be excited to see if they did go all out theme wise for the rest of the outside park because after the quality of theming around Troy, their Booster Bike seemed pretty out of place to me.
