  1. They opened a ride 30 minutes before park closing?I've never really seen the point in doing this as it will cause more problems between staff and guests than keeping it closed all day...

    Isn't going to Florida enough?

    No other Dive Machine has managed to recreate the tension Oblivion has... That slow turn actually makes such a massive difference and is rather ignored as to how well it actually adds to the experience...I love Oblivion... Certainly my 3rd favourite UK coaster...

    Talking tombstones!They are quiet (and Vampire itself is noisy), but a neat little addition to the queue line... Hopefully more can happen...Abdab's are looking worse for wear... Maybe get them refreshed and stick some voices on them as well...Station PA needs to be turned the hell down... I don't like being deafened in the Vampire station by anything but the theme...That is all...
  5. I was watching Buccy get loaded earlier today... It took 10 minutes at least to batch in, put bars down and check them all...In a major theme park, that is an absolutely PATHETIC time frame... I know it's cos of the Huss rules, but NO ride should take that long to load... Especially when Blade doesn't have that issue...
  6. Whilst Chessie has been beautiful recently, can someone tell me why Fury's top walls have been stripped, as well as one of Tomb's extension walls? It looks crap...

    Interesting new addition to the Tomb Blaster queue in the shape of a hand-made marble maze game at the top of the stairs...Neat little addition imo... I'll put some pics up later...

    Ahem... You useless persons of a silly nature...Oh yeah...WE ARE STAYING UP!

    The internet allows us all to say things we normally wouldn't...Fortunately, I'm still about as cynical and sarcastic offline as I am online :)Haters gonna hate...
  11. Just like at London Eye, I never got my real name on my badge
  12. Benin replied to Phill's topic in Nonsense
  13. Yep, enter the park as normal then barge pass all the other guests to the staff members and BAM... ERT...
  14. But... That's not hard :)Interesting angle though... I don't think there's THAT many rides which have a story focusing on alien devestation... Of course, atm I imagine it'll all be diversions and what-not to keep us all guessing...Good times...
  15. Benin replied to AltonThorpe's topic in UK Attractions
    Sigh...There's nothing else to say really... Subtle sponsorship I can live with, but this is about as subtle as a brick...

    We are entering the Age of the 9s...

    Does no-one else have Oblivion bear?
  18. 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...

    ^LOVE IT!!!Reminds me of when there was a scout group in 07 with Nero milkshakes... Brilliant...
  20. Benin replied to Phill's topic in Stuff
    Original what? Colour me confused Holly dear...
  21. Someone on this page is looking FAR too deeply into random connections...An E-cookie to the one who can work out who...
  22. Benin replied to Phill's topic in Stuff
    Only just got this album, and this one has grown on me... Good old Kerrang playing this...
  23. 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)...
