    Intamin could make a ride that literally melts off your genitals and it would be a top 10 coaster on TPR...
  2. Benin replied to EC!'s topic in UK Attractions
    When's the POV from? Perhaps they've done a Wodan and changed the wheels, only the other way round to nerf the ride...
  3. You can tell Thorpe's social media is run by an enthusiast because they know exactly what buttons to press to get people going crazy over absolutely nothing at all... Hey remember when Thorpe posted a picture of a RMC? They're DEFINITELY getting one now!
  4. Space would be an issue there methinks (dark ride wise), though depends what they could do if they spited the DreamFlight rip-off...
  5. Benin replied to EC!'s topic in UK Attractions
    It's the 1.2m restrictions, same as Spinball and Thirteen... Think the comparison to Thirteen is valid, the pre show is very dark and very loud; prime problems for those who aren't that big on the scared factor (I can imagine I wouldn't have been a fan at the 1.2m age)... Weird contradictory Merlin choices...
  6. Fixed that for you...
  7. City parks are the easiest and cheapest, Madrid is a good shout here (plus Parque Warner isn't that hard to get to via public transport either)... Efteling is a good one via public transport too (either Amsterdam or Rotterdam airports), and Asterix is just as doable (coaches from Lourve in central Paris or CDG airport)... Verona airport is a good central base for the northern Italian parks as well, though not sure on the public transport side of things there...
  8. Even if it doesn't open this year, at least one can stare at this beautiful station building...
  9. All cycles innit, couple of years ago all we had was Florida this and that... Later this year it'll be Cedar Point... Then next year somewhere else...
  10. Weird decision, any idea of an incident on it over the past year? Or perhaps changes to Swedish H&S? Depends how tight they are on you if they ruin the ride that much... Disappointing regardless...
  11. Benin replied to JoshC.'s topic in UK Attractions
    Wait until you see the massive fences everywhere...... The station looks nice, the tri-coloured shop/arcade does not... The tiger rock itself looks nice, that dragon does not... A typical Merlin project then...
  12. You should mention that trip to Cedar Point more... I do worry that this thing will suffer from Intamin syndrome... Great first drop but then everything else is all mehhhh...
  13. All that profit has been wiped out by Icon though... So it's success is necessary...
  14. Benin replied to yeah's topic in The Real World
    He'd be better off at yours then. Ain't no way we need another central defender right now (providing all are fit, three first teamers, a rotation and a backup)... Though apparently the Polish lad hasn't shown much as of yet...
  15. Is it under-rated though? I'd probably say not, just not so many people visited Efteling goon wise so perhaps not had a wider hit of people waxing lyrical over it... Plus it's not perfect, given that the touch screens are kinda pointless and the distinct lack of progressing storyline kinda makes a little bit fall flat (same could be said of Dreamflight though really, but as that doesn't present itself to have a storyline, it does get away with it)...
  16. #betterthannothing
  17. £2.40 makes me cry... It's probably still a nicer place than Hemsby...
  18. Benin replied to yeah's topic in The Real World
    No idea who that is and not seen any rumours, no point planning until we know the league for next season though...
  19. #betterthanTaron
  20. Chiapas is better than Ripsaw Falls, predominantly because of the distinct lack of drenching and also the backwards rave room... Taron as an overall package is fantastic, as a ride I'd rather ride Helix...
  21. Python doesn't have VR, they're trialling an equivalent of Reserve n Ride on it... I do believe they're clones though...
  22. And to think, there was an utter pile of turd stood there not long ago...
  23. Planning the trip is more fun than actually going. #truthbomb
  24. Perhaps, the wording is awful though and it's a stupid thing for any social media account to say to a prospective guest... Should've just said something about "if you need to change the date on your advance ticket please contact such and such"...
