Indeed, so detailed, right down to only employing black people in the Africa area

Nope, boat and drop design were part of the issues (namely weight of the boats causing either no splash or complete flooding)...

Aside from Colossus, Hex, Vampire, Efteling, Disney, Universal, and many others...

Desert Race is better than Rita though... Plus, it had to be white, regulations and stuff apparently... Weird mind... Still looking forward to riding it mind, especially once it's worn in a bit...

Should've just done a horror train tbh... Anything would have been better than Blair Witch that's for certain...

As a note, Tomb Blaster's animatronics are meant to move, dunno where that idea came from... River Caves is alright, good old fashioned bit of tat, bit dull as a ride overall (a trend with this style of dark ride mind), but inoffensive... Easier to maintain because it's cheap as chips really...

Rides do open late sometimes... Scorpion Express opened 5 minutes late last week, and Vampire has always been a bit iffy at times...

That was probably one of the worst looking rides I've seen... Thorpe can do better...

Yep, how terrible of Towers to give life to an area that was always dead empty whilst bringing in a solid enough IP that won't age after a year...

Any pics of Pirana and the inside of Dutchman? What about the fairytale forest of forever?

Generic advertising is generic...

The day G-Force gets a second train is the day Merlin builds a wooden coaster...

How strange... Was a video blog thing like they'd done a few times... Silly Europa... Should work now though...

Video!

Another video, our old friend Bastian finally rides it... Seems like the speed flucuates between the front and backwards facing cameras... So dunno how it'll ride... Probably like the others... But the layout is alright, I'm mostly looking forward to that airtime hill more than anything...

Bring your sunglasses...

Love how the bottom part is ripped straight off a Sea-Life poster <3

It's weird how off-peak days at Thorpe tend to not happen much anymore... Not helped by the lack of more than 1 train tending to be used on the majority of rides during this time of course...

What about Easter Sunday though? The ACTUAL day of Easter... A weird decision should that be the case...

Someone compared to Six Flags, which is actually ridiculous value, since you can visit all their parks for sommat stupid like $70... Considering Thorpe were crap at selling APs, it's no surprise they've literally gone the whole hog and made it insanely cheap for their own park one... Though I'm not 100% sure why Londoners would go for such a pass over the MAP one personally...

Or they could do a Joris and have it so guests of 1.1m can ride it in certain rows... Actually, all the parks should do that... Cos mass market coaster is mass market...

Well yeah, park closes at 5pm...

Brainiac is still a thing? Sounds good though... I wont be going cos of assorted other reasons (I.e. Already in France and football is more important), but sounds like they'll do well...

That the issue where it drips from the ride car onto people's legs on the lift hill? I've put that down as a design flaw on B&M's part as it seems to occur on ALL of their Inverts...
