No one cares guys....

Out of all the non-enthusiasts i've chatted to about this ride they don't care about the look of it, they know the Saw is involved and the fact is has a vertical and beyond vertical drop, now thats enough for them ;)

Only the pedantic like us ever notice these little things :p

I think we should have a rule to post only links to pics of the inside, so as not to spoil the surprise.

This. The whole point of the ride about to open is keeping the inside a surprise. It's what makes it more scary. :)
So if you do find any spoilers. Make sure you tell people and only link to the images or post so it doesn't spoil it for those wanting things to stay a surprise. :)

So I don't have to go through 188 pages, does anyone actually have secret pics of the inside of the ride? (Link me if yes!! I love spoilers :twisted: )

WHERE?!?!? ME WANT!!
 
I'm sure it will be the same as the other shops at Thorpe, selling cheap to make, expensive to buy, tacky rubbish with SAW and Thorpe printed on it.

That'll be why Disney is so popular then? :wink:

Yes but thats not particuarly good comparison, your talking about a corporation that has a target market of families. This is targetted to thrill seekers.
Disney want the place to look magical and dream like which they do create rather well.
Saw on the other hand is meant to scare you ****less, so its big, dominating and has the Saw horror theme on it to do the job, the General Public will lap it up.

There’s also an update from today on the same site:

I like the Saw Store, especially the little cameo touches on the doors that read such things as “BV DRP ANGLE: 100d”. Nice attention to detail.

The shelter underneath the Immelman will probably blend in more once the area is finished; I’m guessing there’s more fencing waiting to be installed.
 
^^^ Those pictures of the station are really old and they are just artist's impressions anyway. They aren't real. :wink:

Without the little details their will be very little for the public to "lap up" It is not only the pedantic of us who see themeing. If the general public only wanted to be zoomed around with no point then no Theme Parks would exist. It is all the little details which gives a ride the wow factor. I always feel people on coaster/theme park forums have a warped view of the general public. They do notice all the details and thats why themed rides exist otherwise it just wouldn't be fincially viable.
 
Are they going to theme the "head chopper" effect more or just leave it like that? Looks tacky and plain at the moment.
