I was looking on the MACK rides website and saw that the one of the wild mouse cars looked just like the ones in the haunted castle ride in the scooby-doo movie. did MACK copy Scooby-Doo or did MACK just let them use some for the movie?

 

Mack & Warner Bros. Movie World (Australia) made a combination of a dark ride and wild mouse coaster, themed to the ride in the movie.

 

Hence, the identical design of the cars.

This ride is a show case for a company called "Laservision", it's uses mirrors, different coloured lasers to achive some amazing effects.

 

There is also a backward 1st drop of some 20ft before hitting a turntable and doing the rest of the ride forwards.

 

I wish X: No Way Out at TP was like this.

I have a couple of bits of footage but yeah, it is way too dark to really capture properly - that's the appeal though - for half the ride, you're in a really dark room with lasers going everywhere - very psychadelic.

 

I do this ride every time I go to the park.

 

Would prefer our own Haunted Mansion over this still but hey, it's a very nice combination of dark ride and wild mouse.

I'm not sure that is the right place to ask but is anybody has a video of this ride, I'm quite curious of what is inside.

 

I have a POV, the ride op allowed me to film it when i asked him.

 

I will post it to the video forum when i get a chance.

I personally loved the ride, the dark ride part was a LOT of fun, and then there's the wild mouse/ Rave going on. Good stuff, in one family freindly ride. (can we get a clone in the states now?)

deano - I hope you can post the POV soon, I can't wait to check out the cool lasers and effects.

 

Here is a Link to the company who did the effects for this coaster, It's amazing, your all "cream" yourself:

Cool link, the lasers are probaly the best bit of the ride, as well as the music, it's really loud and creates the best atmosphere ive come across on a dark coaster, well almost the best (Rockin Rollercoaster, space mountain).

 

Im workin on the POV, will definately be posted this weekend.

The video has been uploaded now, (to the video forum).

 

It doesnt really capture how much fun the ride really is, but it will definately give you an idea of what it's about.

Naw, Scooby Doo is way better then the Haunted Mansion!

 

^ i guess the Haunted Mansion's kind of a bit crap in many ways coz

they're totally not lookin' scary but just bit creepy lol..... disney's

magic mighta let it be creepy fun not for lettin' guests be frightenin'

like 'real haunted mansion'.

I saw the video, and it's not nearly as fun as the actual ride (which completly took me by surprise during the dark ride portion) but yeah, you can see most of it.

 

 

I still want a clone state side.
