  1. Poor excuse of being dark rided out... Revenge of the Mummy is fantastic and worthy of everyone's top 10...In regards to Terminator 2, oh god the CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESE... Just wow... It's something that can only work in America since us Brits are so serious but it's bloody hilarious...Shame people seem to be ignoring the Studios... It's a good park really and deserves more than half a day there, you didn't even do any of the shows (Beetlejuice, Horror Make-Up) plus Shrek 4-D or Disaster...

    Robb Alvey take credit from someone else and act like an arrogant person?Well I never!

    ^To be fair, he is probably talking about next years attraction, basing that on what was being said before opening this year with the failed Shrek area and cinema...Though if anyone's saying that it'll be better than LC12... Well, I must be blind...
  4. It does a lot, but at the same time, not a lot at all...Weird ride... I feel that it's TOO long and rather outstays itself... The pacing is weird for such a long coaster and just... Overall weirdness...It's probs great but... Really not something that I can see blowing me away...

    To compare Oblivion with Rumba is ridiculous in itself...Rumba is/was never as bad as what has happened to Oblivion... Simple as... It had very little theming already and indeed actually suited the Calypso Quay area, Fanta suits Oblivion as much as a sword suits my chest...
  6. Yeah, but some of our parks are no better than hovels...Nowhere is perfect, but the UK parks are very much miles behind Europe and the US in many ways...
  7. Benin replied to Cringle's topic in The Forums
    They should add a few more mods to the team who are on here basically all day cos they have nothing better to do... In seriousness, yay for Sheepie!

    Stolen off TTF...What weird placement in the end... It's underneath the infamous drop and turn over Translyvania, and why did that section need another visual point?
  11. Benin replied to Ricky's topic in Stuff
    I mean on Xbox 360, as my laptop can't run it, and the PS3 has no games... :DAlso,

    NIKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKO MY CUZIN!!!!
  13. Benin replied to Ricky's topic in Stuff
    This...That facial technology is amazing, and the game has really gripped me in the storyline... Excellent stuff...
  14. Each train has it's own unique soundtrack for both the launch sequence and ride...It's a lot more apparent of this at Paris to be fair, as each train has a specific light show for the pre-launch...
  15. Considering the franchise has already reached horse flogging levels, I kinda doubt it will be the same in 5 years time...I mean, it would be Saw 12! Urgh...
  16. Look at the topic subtitle to find out...
  17. Benin replied to Ash's topic in General Discussion
    Some rides ARE complex, no-one can deny that, but parks need to ensure that all rides are running at full capacity every day the park is open...Thorpe failed to do this on a constant basis...And ride staff are the LAST people to know what the actual problem is... All platformers know is that it's broken...
  18. Benin replied to Phill's topic in Nonsense
    Spoilered for swearing
  19. That's why I said it WAS expensive...
  20. I don't even know if the question means cards or cars... Seeing CARS would make more sense as the transfer track is down the bottom of the pyramid... But if it's cards, maybe someone dropped a few Merlin Top Trumps down there...
  21. Benin replied to Dan9's topic in UK Attractions
    Nice to see that it wasn't just left in the Rig Site as it was since the park's opening...Shame it's only come in after the 21st birthday though...

    Not saying you don't HAVE to have a serious relationship... Just don't get down about it... Cos it's better off waiting and be with someone who you want to be with and they want to be with you, then rush in and have no form of emotion or point to it...
  23. Ben 10 is the best coaster at Drayton...Excellent addition and actually a pretty decent (if exceptionally random) ride...
  24. Benin replied to Theme Park bloke's topic in The Real World
    ^Horrid people get horrid people to 'date'...And these are usually one night stands and have very little to no emotion or further stuff...Honestly, it's nothing to worry about... Life isn't all about relationships... Especially before hitting 20...
  25. ^And part of Thirteen's marketing campaign of the training camp in order to be the first one to ride it AND the general "THIS IS YOUR FAVOURITE RIDES IN ONE!!" didn't appeal to enthusiasts?Parks NEED to use the social media and this is working relatively well so far... Parks need to build up rep with fansites as well so that they get more things said about them by the enthusiast community, especially when you have a pre-existing image like Thorpe's...In short, stop being a downer and let people enjoy it...
