It's never gonna be running 5 ever again, we'll be lucky if it ever runs 4 on most days...

To be fair, it does look great as an overall product; lessons seemingly learnt from previous projects going utterly tits up is a positive... Saying it's as good as Megaphobia is however, not particularly so... But think everyone knew that the layout in of itself was going to be bang average and a waste of potential...- Wicker Man

Wonder how many Japanese Spider crabs contributed to that total...- The Walking Dead: The Ride - Speculation and 'Construction'
Knightmare is more fun to ride than half the stuff at Thorpe too...- Wicker Man
We're still waiting for that surely? Also that's not the ride entrance for Wodan, since the queue starts in a random wooden shack... All for Merlin bashing, but let's do that when they actually deserve it...- The Walking Dead: The Ride - Speculation and 'Construction'
Jordan works for Thorpe anyway, you see her name crop up a lot in the Trip Advisor responses... Think she's been learning PR off that Morwenna lass who used to work at Towers (remember THOSE stunts?)- Phantasialand
I literally don't recall any issues with phone signal on the park, guess everyone else just has crap providers...- The Walking Dead: The Ride - Speculation and 'Construction'
Gotta love that barbed wire fence aesthetic...- Port Aventura
Irony being that Shambhala is probably the best operated ride in the park (to be fair to them, Shambhala isn't operated that badly platforming wise, it's the Fastrack balance)...- Energylandia
Still a better contractor than TG Cruise.- Blackpool Pleasure Beach
Yeah the Arthur baggage system is poor (made more hilarious that single rider queue completely skips it)... I'd rather do locker faff outside the queueline like Universal et al then a confined indoor space...- Port Aventura
Best way to describe PA is all skirt and no knickers... Which is a shame because when I visited with Mark those years ago I had a very good time there... @Mega-Lite you'll have to at least ride Baco in the back row outside seat once... Just the once...- Europa Park
3 rethemes in one year is impressive... Poor Seal Maybe you can get them to send it to you Mark?- Something Stupid: Thorpe Half Marathon 2018
When you doing the Disney runs?- Blackpool Pleasure Beach
Pleasure Beach has good days and bad days... I believe I was also visiting the same day as Mark once and that day was full of dreadful people (and not just the goons)...- Great Ride Documentaries
- Disneyland Paris
Like Ratatouille? Which is going to Epcot... Star Wars is about the only definite clone from the States, Frozen Land looks like what was meant to be going into DisneySea (and has gone quiet since announced), and Marvel is potentially a weird mix, we're definitely not getting Guardians of the Tower of Breakout, or likely to get the Guardians cred going into Epcot; so beyond the Iron Man RnRC retheme and the stunt show replacement I don't know what we might get that'd you'll find in America... Someone has mooted the Ant Man shooting ride coming into Hong Kong but without any solid concrete announcements we don't actually know if there will be much cloning going on...- Disneyland Paris
DLP has the best Magic Kingdom #truthbombs- Blackpool Pleasure Beach
It'll be equally amusing and upsetting when the GP are completely non-plussed about this...- Disneyland Paris
HOLD ON TO YOUR HATS AND GLASSES! The Studios will no longer be the red-headed stepchild of DLP, it will gain 3 new themed areas (Marvel, Star Wars and Frozen) over the course of the next few years (I'm guessing)... http://www.ed92.org/en/news-disney-announces-transformative-multi-year-expansion-for-disneyland-paris/- The Small Parks Thread

No Rocky Express? Joke of a place...- Wicker Man
