Cornflakes

Personally I think a Doctor Who themed dark ride would suit the park down to the ground, it's family friendly but not childish and with Merlins ties to the BBC, it seems very likely to me. Also, Peter Capaldi. More Theme Parks need Peter Capaldi.

Can we not use the word Chav please, it's Classist.

Is a right crawler.

Wants Snow Leopards to rule the Earth, which is ridiculous and impossible, as Snow Leopards haven't got opposable thumbs or a firm grasp of Social & Fiscal Politics, both of which are necessary if you want to rule the Earth.

nahhh

I'd rather not look like an RCCGB member, so no.

I really hope the new ambient soundtrack never comes to fruition, the silence makes Blair Witch.

Towards the end of the night it got much better, actors really got into it.

I'm fine with using strobes at the end, but having them all the way through the maze really detracts from it, one thing Asylum lacked was scene variation, studio has this, but it's kind of hard to notice when you're constantly being blinded by strobes. Turn them off, replace it with some atmospheric still lighting a day they'll be on to a winner. The problem with stories is that Thorpe seems to think that a little exposition at the start makes a story. It doesn't.

Just got back from AP preview, so I figured it's a good time to share my thoughts. My Bloody Valentine is still crap. Saw Alive is Saw Alive. (It's crap) Cabin in the Woods has taken a nosedive, far too well lit in many sections of the maze, showing off the cheap theming. Not good. Studio 13 was a pleasant surprise. Had two runs through it, one as it opened and one near the end of the night, first run through was not good, felt very rushed and Asylum like, just strobes and screaming. Second run through was so much better, although story is pretty much non existent (as it is with every Thorpe maze) the actors did a great job at playing their characters, the strobes were still annoying though, the maze would benefit greatly if they were just replaced with some more atmospheric still lighting. Blair Witch Project was the best maze of the night, rather than throwing a bunch of scares at you in quick succession and to little effect, Blair Witch utilises long periods of silence to build tension for the next big scare, the lack of music and the maze taking place in pretty much total darkness really contributes to it, however as with every other maze, it would be nice to see the actors given more complex scripts to better showcase the story, rather than just having them scream at you. The groups on Blair Witch are also far too large, cutting the groups down to around 3 or 4 people would really add to the tension and creeping sense of dread created by the maze. Definite improvement on last years event, however as usual, storytelling is absent from every maze. Shame.

Theme Parks are crap.

It's time for... TPM'S FAVOURITE DICTATOR! Who is the worst of the worst? Is it... ADOLF HITLER Leader of Nazi Germany, thought to be one of the most evil men to of ever lived. JOSEPH STALIN Pretended to be Communist in order to impose an Authoritarian Dictatorship on the people of Russia. KIM JONG UN He's an enthusiast, just like you. ROBERT MUGABE Election rigging, torture loving BASTARD. Overseer of massive inflation and rapidly depleting health conditions in Zimbabwe. SADDAM HUSSEIN Oversaw a war with Iran and the invasion of Kuwait, possessed weapons of mass destruction and tried to commit genocide of the Kurds. LEONID BREZHNEV Continued Stalin's oppressive, totalitarian regime in Russia. (The sole reason I put him in the poll was so I could use this picture) MUAMMAR AL-GADDAFI A proper James Bond style villain - known for his odd dress sense, his entirely female defence force - Oh and the fact that he turned Libya into a one party state and expelled all Italians from Libya. Is your favourite Dictator not on the list? Choose the other option in the poll. **VOTING ENDS ON NOVEMBER 1ST** It's time to find out who is... TPM'S FAVOURITE DICTATOR!

Would improve the maze a lot tbh.

It's a shame that such a good concept is wasted on a scare zone just because of the ever shrinking entertainments budget at Towers.

It's kind of a shame that the IP mazes will be here to stay for some time, the original concepts that Thorpe have for this year are far more interesting than any of the horror movie things.

What a load of arse.

Won't be doing this, going on preview day so I don't see much reason to pay for a second visit when I don't enjoy the event all that much. The awful train service on Sundays also makes this a no for me. See you all at Christmas I guess

Kinnaird scheint sehr verdächtig für mich, seit ich wähle für Menschen, die sich später als wurden Mafia begonnen , er hatte es aus für mich , scheint er wie die meisten offensichtlich für mich , aber wenn jemand etwas konkrete Hinweise zu bekommen , um zu beweisen mich nicht falsch, ich werde glücklich meine Stimme ändern. ##vote Kinnaird

Had an Android phone for the last couple years, switching to iPhone in January. Android is a great platform, but iPhone's now finally do everything I want them to do, Apple have the advantage on the software front, iOS has been refined and perfected into an OS that is easy to use and doesn't sacrifice stability for features, it's also worth noting that Apple's app selection is far superior. The Apple Watch looks really interesting as well, I'm looking forward to seeing how it's received.

If R&R was being used on mazes instead of a regular queuing system I'd be very happy, one of the great things about Scarefest is the fact that you don't have to wait to long because you have an allotted time.

Wii U. Theme Parks or Amusement Parks?

Oh für Roland willen , zum letzten Mal - ich bin nicht MAFIA ! Wenn ich in der Mafia war , warum sollte ich unternehmen große Anstrengungen , um die Stadt , dass Coasterdude war Mafia zu überzeugen? Scheint ein bisschen dumm zu töten, einer Ihrer Begleiter , nicht wahr? Ich sehe Coasterdude die Schonung als Eintritt der Niederlage. Bitte denken Sie vor der Abstimmung haben sich zwei Menschen, die J.S217 des Seins Mafia accussed von der Mafia umgebracht worden - , die viel sagt, wenn Sie mich fragen. Ich denke, wir sollten versuchen, J.S217 gelyncht werden , wenn ich falsch liege , gehen Sie vor und lynchen mich , aber ich schwöre , dass ich nicht der Mafia ! Alles, was ich tun möchte, ist nach Hause gehen zu Europa-Park ! TRANSLATION, for the lazy; If I was in the mafia, why would I take great pains to convince the town that Coasterdude was mafia? Seems a bit stupid to kill off one of your companions does it not? I see Coasterdude's sparing as an admittance of defeat. Please think before voting, Two people who accussed J.S217 of being mafia have been killed by the mafia - that says a lot if you ask me. I think we should try to get J.S217 lynched, if I'm wrong, go ahead and lynch me, but I swear that I'm not mafia! All I want to do is go home to Europa Park! ##vote J.S217
