FirstDropJay Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I really loved King Kong 360 and was extremely excited to have a similar ride closer to home. This looks indeed extremely well designed. Can't wait to ride it myself! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efteley130 Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 I've been to Movie Park yesterday and the Lost Temple was in pre-opening, so I could ride it! I've ridden it twice, both with the speedy pass. It's very well done, especially for the relatively low budget of 5 million euro's! The queue and pre-shows are amazing, the ride itself is unfortunately not that good (imo), because of the poor 3-D quality. The movement of the vehicles are great! What's also a anticlimax is the ending. You're in the middle of dinosaurs and the next moment you're back. What happened to dr. Carther? In the queue and pre-shows you're traveling down to 700 metres below the surface, and when you exit you're back in less than 10 steps! Nevertheless it's a great addition for Movie Park!

RCT3Bross Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Movie park Germany has some interesting plans, They applied for a 45 meter high (147,6 feet) coaster for 2017. This is the second time they announced they planned to make a coaster this big but the last time Parques Reunidos stopped the plan. This time however they seem to finally let it happen. The park has already stated they don't plan on letting anything out right now. This coaster should be build next to the entrance of the park. Source. I have to say I'm happy about this news. Movie park Germany is a really nice park but sometimes I require a little push to go there. Well this is just the right push for me to go in 2017 again. I really hope they pull it off this time.

Gutterflower Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Seems like the new coaster will be a Mack coaster of some kind. Mack seem to be having quite a good few years. There is also this picture found here http://www.funspirit.de/neue-achterbahn-projekt-2017/ Looks pretty interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDG Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 (edited) Quick Photoshop... Looks like it might have one of those back-and-forth launches like that new Intamin in China. Edited December 10, 2015 by BDG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KBrylczyk Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 ^ It won't help unless they change the trains. The cars shimmy diagonally. It's unbelievable how bad it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedimaster1227 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 ^Wasn't part of the reason Bandit was so rough because the trains destroyed the track over time? I thought that the Premier trains on Son of Beast did the same thing to the ride, so it wouldn't surprise me if that was the root of the problem here.

And it had Intamin-trains in its first season. Not the ones you can find on rides like Colossos and El Toro today, but an older design, PTC-like.

K1ngdaKa88 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I think there are only 2 future possibilities for this coaster! - burning it down - or someone needs to call RMC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 ^ I like fire, so let's burn it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedimaster1227 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 (edited) ^^^It is surprising that the Intamin trains were replaced so quickly... Sad to see a neat layout fall to pieces but I'm happy to see them re-tracking the ride to make it better.

RCT3Bross Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Wow they're further then I expected them to be. Saw a crane picture on a German forum a few days ago but expected that was for land clearing still (sounds so silly now, you need bulldozers for land clearing not a crane ). This promises some nice updates on German forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StealthFan Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Bandit's real problem is that it hasn't been replaced with something good. I think we need to get some woodpeckers, beavers and crazy axe wielding maniacs to destroy the rides in a violent wood chopping fury! Then replace it with something good like new toilets. Also how did I miss this new ride? It looks pretty awesome to me. Mack have been producing some really solid rides recently so I'm sure this will be exactly the same.

BDG Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Looks like there will be a "tunnel" through the old Movie Magic hall, similar to Superman's tunnel in Australia... © Robb Alvey photo: hansapark1 @ Coasterfriends Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
