    New Nickelodeon Land for Blackpool

    That's cool, I though Magic Mountain would turn into the Dora ride because it sounded like it would fit a dark ride most, but I didn't realise it was to become a water ride that is outside? That's very cool, I thought they might cut corners and just add different animatronics, so very pleased...

    Merlin to run Blackpool Tower after £40m deal!

    I like! I bet the dungeon will be free for pass holders, can't see why not. Makes complete sense getting rid of the aquarium as well since there's a SeaLife down the street. Now they can do dungeon/tower/sealife tickets and whatnot. I just hope the drop tower is better than the one in London...

    Valhalla effects

    Will the throughput be increased though? I mean, it's a constant conveyor belt, the boats can't move through the station any quicker. The only thing that will happen is they will take some boats off so they don't clog up, but they haven't ran all of them the past few times I've been anyway. I...

    New Nickelodeon Land for Blackpool

    ^They charged extra for it though didn't they? In true Blackpool fashion. So that's probably why it failed. I second the view that this is their 'Thomas Land'. ALl the brands and characters will bring so many people back to Blackpool I reckon. It almost seems like this is exactly what they...

    New Nickelodeon Land for Blackpool

    ^Yeah it's not on the map. I'm not sure if they'll keep it or rid of it. My sense would say to put a 4d cinema in there but even if it's knocked down it will create a lot of space. Fantastic idea this. I think it's the largest investment the park has had since Valhalla? Really is something...

    uk best drop ride

    Apocolypse without a doubt. Second would be the Hyper Blaster but this year Pleasure Island have destroyed it, hence now it's pathetic. Such a shame. So Detonator takes its' spot. The drop tower at the London Dungeons was the most dissapointing. That thing could've been soo much better...

    Legoland Florida Website

    I'm dissapointed to be honest. I really thought they'd try to make this a different Legoland park so the British wouldn't think it's just like Windsor but they don't seem to have done that at all. Mind you, there is a much wider audience to attract than just the British isn't there? The...

    Thorpe's New MTDP

    Exactly my thought. I'd be interested to see the old Thorpe Park plans that included a second Detonator tower and other stuff so we can see how much stuff went ahead and how much didn't. That would probably put into perspective how much these changes will actually alter the park. I'm still...

    Space Invaders 2 Sold Off to Brean Leisure Park

    The queue was horrid! After the first room which was pretty good those tedious hallways going upwards felt like forever. I'm happy with the news. Blackpool didn't seem bothered as it wasn't the only ride that has closed, and it's not a bad roller coaster so I think Brean is a good place for...

    Major Changes for Disney's California Adventure

    Wow, I wasn't expecting that. Disliked the beginning from Under the Sea and the end but the middle was incredible. Using Fantasia 2000 that much made me very impressed and the Muffassa scene was incredible. I wasn't expecting to like it this much but there we go! I did not like the fact...

    Have You Ever Been Evacuated?!

    ONCE! I've had such frustration never getting an evac but we got evacuted off Jurrasic Park at IOA Christmas just gone. It was pretty cool, we got to see Potter construction which was great. We stopped just before the climb hill though, some got stuck at the top. Still, twas pretty cool!

    walt disney world to add new resort

    ^Exactly mate, it's all cheap and cheerful. The first time we went we stayed at the Quality Inn down International Drive and that's pretty much all this is just Disney-fied. With Florida getting dearer to get to and stay at I think it's a pretty good idea to introduce another value resort, but I...

    Alton Towers - Th13teen conquered!

    Sounds like you had a good time! It didn't take long for us to realise that the Th13teen single rider queue is without a doubt the best way to get it done a couple of times before everybody else realise it exists. Quick note about Nemesis, you said you walked through Haunted Hallow to get to...

    Fantasy Island (UK) - Photo Trip Report

    Love it! Odd news about the Fantasy Mouse as well. I've been meaning to get here since wristbands have been introduced, I'm trying to make the Live because that'll be an excuse to go. It's just not good enough to go back to when there's nothing new, let alone when they're getting rid of...

    New "Groundbreaking" Attraction for Legoland W

    Wow, what a find! I think that's the most subtle mention of a new attraction Merlin have ever done! Unless the plan was for one of us to find it then the speculation do everything for them! Fantastic groundbreaking attraction never seen before at a Legoland park? Let the speculation commence...

    What Would You Improve About rcdb.com? [Please Reply]

    Thanks mate, I really appreciate it. Wouldn't be hard to include that feature within the query, from this perspective anyway. Any other suggestions? :)

    What Would You Improve About rcdb.com? [Please Reply]

    This is for a project I am conducting to finish off my final year of my degree. Myself and my group have to create or modify a web site and then present why we have done what we've done. We have decided to take rcdb.com and create a 'mock-up' of a modifed version of the site. However, it has...

    John Wardley back on the season pass podcast :)

    Great response! Thank's very much Nick and I really appreciate you reading and commenting on my views. I have to admit, when I started listening to the podcast I had no idea how many amazing guest stars were going to be on the podcast in recent time. I think it's incredible how you get hold of...

    John Wardley back on the season pass podcast :)

    It might be ERT #4? 07/04/2010 I have it down as. I know that's the Dickens' World one. I think it's the same episode?
