  1. Ben 10 had it's media day yesterday, and here's a POV of it.. It does look fun... Not OMFG amazing, but considering target audience and what not, it could well be a solid addition to Drayton's rather quirky line-up...The queue theming looks interesting as well, though I'm not a fan of the 'unfinished' look of the buildings... But meh...
  2. ^LOVE IT!!!Reminds me of when there was a scout group in 07 with Nero milkshakes... Brilliant...

    Original what? Colour me confused Holly dear...
  4. Someone on this page is looking FAR too deeply into random connections...An E-cookie to the one who can work out who...

    Only just got this album, and this one has grown on me... Good old Kerrang playing this...
  6. This sounds like my kind of advertising... Nowhere near the silly cheap PR bollocks Towers brought out... I hope they keep this up to be fair, much more enthusiastic and interesting way of bringing hype, rather than just ULTIMATE this and ULTIMATE that...

    Lady GaGa refused Weird Al Yankovic permission to use his parody on his new album...Considering how big a badge of honour a Weird Al parody generally is, and how he actually doesn't need to ask permission for it as parodies are covered by a different law, it's kinda silly, and she hence loses points (not that I listen to her as it ain't my scene)...
  8. There's your problem right there Mr Conformist...
  9. THE CAKE IS A LIE!EDIT - Actualllllly, that would be probably better placed in the serious ride topic
  10. There are more forces on the back row of any ride... Very noticeable due to the fact that you're generally being dragged along rather than pulling...
  11. It's more for angry ranting...For example, I'm angry at Nicky's flight home being cancelled cos I'm already feeling a bit down and having to wait another day to speak to her again... It's frustrating as hell...
  12. Fuji-Q's Eurofighter is nearly finished...
  13. Tbh, it needs to actually be simple enough to explain to those who don't particularly follow politics...This is where it fails...

    Old, poorly photoshopped fake...Must try harder...
  15. That depends... Cos one of my major issues with those two is that they were TOO big... Comparing their pullouts to Oblivion's (Which is one of the major G-Force sections of the ride), they are rather pathetic :lol:I'm still eagerly awaiting this in May... Simply because it is a new European B&M...
  16. ^Unsuprising though, considering they will have the drain the pool in order to correctly access it to put all the structural components of the theming together...Still a real disappointment though... I'm looking forward to comparing it myself with SheiKra and Griffon regardless as those are bloody forceless and have very little in my eyes going for them...
  17. Is the correct answer...Funny how a small park can build a similar ride and put theming on it... (Though the lift hill tunnel is VILE)
  18. Again I find myself following an European park building a brand new B&M, so let's have a topic about the park and ride...I visited the park for the first time last year, and throughly enjoyed the rides and atmosphere, with the classy Tonnerre de Zeus being backed up by Goudrix (not as bad as people say) in the current big coaster stakes, and some excellent theming and rides dotted around the park...See my TR in the link below for some pics...http://forum.maniahub.com/topic/7404-paris-parc-asterix-et-piscines/And next year, a B&M Inverted will arrive...http://www.potionmagix.fr/forumix/nouvelle-zone-attraction-2012-parc-asterix-t1271-430.html#p33432Hopefully this new one will keep the same level of theming as the rest of the park and really help imprint the park onto the local map...
  19. You like it jolty though
  20. Ricky's point still (kinda) counts...Even though Oblivion has always had orange trim... Just it looks exceptionally bright now since it's the only bits in the area that have been painted in years...
  21. This is just slightly more complex than Saw...Just slightly...
  22. Ahh, it's at Six Flags New England nowadays...But S&S have stopped production of them apparently... Which if true, can't help the two existing ones much now can it?
  23. What with Oblivion's new Fanta rape of sponsorship, me and Mark9 have decided it's time to think about what other ways some of the UK's greatest rides can be transformed to become a brand new cash cow...First up... Nemesis - Sponsored by Wickes!Choose my new bathroom tiles AND ride the UK's best rollercoaster? Yes please!Please go on...
  24. ^Generally it's more telling how parks think of rides by NOT building them...Isn't Slammer like, the only Sky Swat in the world these days?Similar can be said of the Huss Jump2...
