    Hehe yeah don't worry, I love Disney, it's just hard going back for the third time and still seeing that big blue box that Guardians is lurking in. Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk

    CANCELLED - Unfinnished Business | FINLAND |24th - 26th Jul 2020

    We might be able to come but would probably just meet you guys at the parks as 9am on Saturday is a bit too tricky for us to get to unless we can get some extra time off work and go down the night before. Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk

    CANCELLED - Basic Beginnings | ALTON TOWERS | 22nd Mar 2020

    My wife and I will hopefully get there, just looking at hotels etc because it's quite a drive for us (from Norwich). Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk

    I wonder if Disney execs are looking at this then looking at their schedules where they take three or four years to build coasters like Tron or Guardians. I'm still planning my trip to get on Hyperion and it looks like there'll be two more trip-worthy creds by the time I get there. Sent from...

    CF-Lives 2020 | All Dates Announced!

    We (my wife and me) will hopefully be able to do FInland and Poland, but I'm very tempted by the East Coast US ones, will have to look at flight prices etc.

    Small News From The Theme Park Industry

    It was better than I expected on the CF live, if the trains are good it'll be an alright coaster. I wonder how much new trains cost, compared to getting a new flat ride or something. Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk

    Your biggest positive surprise?

    Apocalypse was a crazy surprise for me. It doesn't look like much and I hadn't heard much about it, but it's just relentless all the way around and has some surprisingly good theming for a Six Flags ride. Went on it again this year and was surprised all over again, it's easily one of my...

    Christmas in Orlando

    Oh yeah Disney was busy, but only about as busy as August other than Christmas Eve. I think New Years is worse. Sea World and Universal weren't too bad at all though Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk

    Christmas in Orlando

    Not going to do a full report as we were there for 7 days. But thought I'd share some of the interesting bits about being in Orlando over Christmas. 1. Rise of the Resistance was insane, easily my favourite dark ride now and I think it sets a new bar for how dark rides will be judged. We got to...

    SFMM | West Coast Racers | Premier Quad Launch Möbius Sky Rocket

    I feel like I've been really lucky with Twisted Colossus, we've only been twice, October 2016 and then 2019 but both times they were really pushing the trains out to get duels and out of 6 rides or so I think we had at least one duel on 4 of them. Doesn't WCR have two stations so they can just...

    People are 'working' on the project, they can get a healthy salary as long as there's investment then fold the company when it collapses and not lose out personally. They might even have some kind of insurance for that happening. Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk

    If it opens the Coaster force Live is going to be so surreal. Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk

    Or it could be because it's all based on the prequel films that are decades old and none of it is minifig scale so doesn't even lineup with the huge Lego star wars ranges that are coming out every year and are wildly successful. Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk

    Europa Park | Rulantica Extensions | Waterpark | 2023

    I find most water parks are like this and I've never known why. Even in the big Florida water parks (the only ones I've done) the slides are very samey and have very little theming, but the lazy rivers look incredible. Are there some regulations that make all slides look so similar? Sent from...

    Yeah I remember a piece being replaced, I thought I'd read it was at risk of fracturing so they replaced it. Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk

    Your Credit Approach at a New Park

    I'm a definite B. We tend to do any cress that we're worried about missing (due to reliability or weather) first, then we try to go from the worst ride to the best and don't make too much of a distinction between coasters and flats and dark rides, we'll go on anything we like the look of or...

    I'm guessing the screen will look better in person, they always tend to look rubbish in photos, especially when there's not much ambient light. Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk
