  1. Entirely depends on whether I do Munich & Austria this year... Besides, I'm aiming to pretty much finish up the England creds this year, so that'll add up
  2. I'm in Italy right now this second... Katun is calling me...
  3. Benin replied to Sheepie's topic in UK Attractions
    I miss that voice... "WOOOOAAAAHHHH, you shouldn't have come this way"
  4. Fastrack users will be using the exit if (like on most off-peak days) there's no staff member on merge... Thorpe have been doing that for years, as have Chessie...

    It's Fury though, they don't let 4 adults share a car like Spinball... That's the Chessie logic...
  6. Dat Disney standard <3
  7. But it mentions Easter but there isn't a specific Easter event... I'm with pluk, cut and paste in terms of what can be seen as special events...
  8. Someone hasn't been on a trackless ride system with that statement... The amount of stuff one can do with trackless is pretty limitless... Cant have cars interacting with one another with a normal tracked system...

  10. Can't any of the independents being able to afford a massive scale dark ride either, unfortunately... The building is 13m odd isn't it? That'll give us a ride that can reach just under 40ft if so...
  11. Benin replied to pluk's topic in The Past
    What IS weird is that we have yet another attraction that requires millions of staff to run it... Why are the parks/Merlin into this concept? Especially given the general reaction to the likes of Saw Alive and Sub Terra... Wish one of the parks would just build a FunHouse attraction (as in the attraction type, not the 90s kids TV show)... That would probably suit the IP of I'm a Celeb if they were so desperate to get that one... I look at the video and think that as an attraction, Chessie would ADORE something like this...
  12. Mostly blackout dates... And increases in discounts on food/merch... Dream pass gives you a free mocktail at some restaurants...
  13. That's put me off renewing mine then... Have they changed the entry prices on the gate? That's the best comparison...
  14. You're not a proper IMAScore fan unless you buy one of their shirts...
  15. Be interesting to compare the ride itself with Krake... There's a few details in this that have come out of nowhere... The 'decontamination' spray on the brake run is a good example of this...
  16. Benin replied to pluk's topic in The Past
    You must adore certain branches of McDonalds
  17. Benin replied to pognoi's topic in Nonsense
    At least use the right castle...
  18. Can you take me on your trip Mark?
  19. Opens on 19th June now, tickets are available for booking at about £15 a person...
  20. It's that time of year where Europa toot their own horn and have a video showing off ALL the new additions for the season! 'Small' investment year... Also, here's the new look Seastorm: A true thing of beauty...
  21. What's with the hate for Doctor Who? Also, screen based rides can work amazingly, as Mark has already pointed out, Ratatouille is a fantastic example of this, purely because of the quality put into said screen work... Of course, we could end up with Wonder Mountain Guardian, which is the opposite end of that spectrum in general screen based dark ride quality...
  22. Not sure if better than Octonauts' queue...
  23. Merlin have built one dark ride in their history in Sub Terra at the big parks (Ghost at Legolands can be considered if you're desperate to boost numbers)... And it's an IP (using the original Nemesis backstory, so follows the definition, even if it's an internal one)... Dr Who would be better than Hunger Games...
  24. Next to the toilet block at the main entrance, dunno about the second entrance... As for Towers' opening times, I've always wondered how much of that is down to the locals not particularly being enthralled with the idea of thousands of cars trudging through Alton village at dinner time...
