robbeal Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Hahaha, scrap shit of boots, classic! Its in English, in France too, how weird. Walibi Lorraine looks like quite nice little park from those photos, maybe one to consider for the future.
Hattuchili Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Hmm, it looks like, Walibi Lorraine looks not as bad as I thought! However, nice pictures. Only one day for the great Disney pictures... Yeah! --Sören

Wishmaster Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 An other great update. But Casey Jr. is not a Mack, it's a Vekoma.
Damien666 Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 Once again, nice trip report. (Furries!! We are everywhere HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! ) Okay, I have a few questions for you Robb. After hearing the old soundtrack, I liked it. It sounded like some kind of a soundtrack that would belong in a adventure ride! So my questions are... What's the new soundtrack like? (Techno or something like that?) Are the effects better then the first one? Would you prefer it if it still had the original soundtrack? What Rnrc do you prefer? MGM's or Paris. What was the Old Mill ride? Random California Space Mountain question: Is the new version better? As in effects and music.
dandaman Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 "Yo Ho....I mean, Yo Elissa, wanna go on Pirates?" Another great addition to the update, guys!
ChrisZer0 Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 Great update once again guys...wish I had the dinero to go on one of these coaster jaunts with you all
robbalvey Posted September 2, 2005 Author Posted September 2, 2005 (edited) But Casey Jr. is not a Mack, it's a Vekoma. *sigh* details, details, details.....complain...complain...complain.... --Robb "I didn't need three different people tell me I made a mistake...a PM or something would have been just fine!"

robbalvey Posted September 2, 2005 Author Posted September 2, 2005 Okay, I have a few questions for you Robb.After hearing the old soundtrack, I liked it. It sounded like some kind of a soundtrack that would belong in a adventure ride! So my questions are... What's the new soundtrack like? (Techno or something like that?) Yes, it's more techno or rock, less "timeless." Are the effects better then the first one? There are one or two cool effects like the red swirley tunnel thing, but honestly, it seemed like there was "less stuff" in the mountain than there was before. Would you prefer it if it still had the original soundtrack? Yes What Rnrc do you prefer? MGM's or Paris. I prefer Paris. What was the Old Mill ride? It was just a themed Ferris Wheel, but it was cool being able to get a view from that vantage point of the park. Random California Space Mountain question: Is the new version better? As in effects and music. Dunno, I haven't bothered to go back to Disneyland since January! --Robb
COOOOLkid Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 Is it just me or the original soundtrack for SM sounds John William-ish from 80s?
robbalvey Posted September 2, 2005 Author Posted September 2, 2005 ^ It's not just you, it totally does! And that's another reason why I liked it! --Robb
Hattuchili Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 Hey Robb, this one of the best updates ever. I really liked the pictures. It was very funny from time to time, and the old pictures of Space Mountain are great. I really miss Disneyland Resort Paris. I hope there is a chance to go there next year. --Sören

Alvey Hey, I just wanted to let you know. How could I know a few other people already had send you a PM? And it wasn't meant as a complaint, I just thought you didn't know Vekoma made powered coasters. I used to think it was a Mack myself.
plugoff2000 Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 Great update !! I was at Disneyland Paris Today, with à little thought for you guys. --manu.
Nrthwnd Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 I miss Visionarium, because it was unique and brilliantly filmed and had a real plot to it. Now....Buzz Lightyear? Ok. I want to get back to Indy Coaster, now that's its' running forwards again. Backwards was too intense and somewhat hurting. And seeing the loop ahead of you, is more fun, hmm? The Mansion is The One That Works, even if you don't understand French. Same goes for the Pirates/Caribbean. And landscaping, landscaping. Last visit back in October, I spent one actual full day NOT riding anything and just enjoying the park itself. I know that's not possible for some tourers, but it does make a difference 'cause even DLP has it's intense moments, and lineups and things-that-can-go-wrong dept. Arcades were great for cooler days, and the Liberty Arcade actually was a part of a long (mostly) covered walkway that got you all the way to the back of Fantasyland w/o having to trek the same route as the crowds. Veeerrrry sneaky. (o: Great photoshoot Robb - I miss DLP and can't wait to get back there ASAP. And I think this time, tho, I will add in Parc Axterix for a day trip.
Stitch Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 I wish WDW's castle at Magic Kingdom had a Dragon under it

And it wasn't meant as a complaint, I just thought you didn't know Vekoma made powered coasters. I used to think it was a Mack myself. No, no, it's not a big deal, it's just that like three other people posted the EXACT same thing you did after you did. I deleted all the other posts, because, well it was just pointless! Yours was fine because it was first, but it just seemed like everyone was all let's play the "I too know Robb is wrong game!" --Robb "Everyone makes mistakes here and there...." Alvey
Ed Posted September 3, 2005 Posted September 3, 2005 Did you have to "audition" for the Moteurs show Elissa? I remember watching it in Paris thinking.. Thank god i'm not screaming "Help me mommy" infront of thousands of people..
COOOOLkid Posted September 3, 2005 Posted September 3, 2005 --Robb "Everyone makes mistakes here and there...." Alvey yup, especially since you think of comments for every single photos that goes in an update... I'm sure Robb's taking a lot of his time coming up with his funny/trivial comments, so kudos to him for making TPR more fun place to be!!!
ChrisZer0 Posted September 3, 2005 Posted September 3, 2005 Tip of the cap to ya robb. Im here pretty much every day to see what you have up your perverbial sleeve. Ever consider leaving the hustle and bustle of the game business for one as a writer?
