The Daily star really brought some sex appeal to the ride.

The Blue Barnacle (Previously Black Buccaneer)

Will we change the name of the thread though? Personally I think it should be renamed Nemesis Inferno after one of the UK's best roller-coasters. -
I add Brexit to this race, as that itself could be seen as a rollercoaster.

Surprised nobody's talking about what was put on their instagram earlier this week and then swiftly taken down.. Seemed to be a teaser for whats to come.

Congratulations to TPM member @MattyMoo who has now won 69 days, whatever that means.

I see him as personally just being brainwashed by MR Brown into predicting these things, although he does seem to have a good knack for it without any construction updates. But as he says its all speculation.

Imagine getting to the park at 2am to know that you will be riding at some point during the day. 17 hours later he go on the ride,, clearly getting there at 2am has no benefit and just makes you a tired fool.

Stuff that "Triggers You as"/"Makes You Cringe at" an Enthusiast

You also have to play into effect guest security has become a major factor over the past 10 years. -
Merlin Parks aren't just able to invest money at will, without a business case, which is what they did in the early 2000's era. Currently Merlin's interests are in Asia as that's where the emerging markets are. If the British consumer, spent more money in the parks, and stopped complaining about the excellent value of the MAP looking for the cheapest options to the point of Merlin practically giving tickets away, share the fun, trade, promos etc, then perhaps they would invest more into the UK markets but currently Lego is the asset with the greatest return, hence why it will be getting a new land next year. On the second to Disney comment, it's the truth however you have to look at the business as a whole for example the Midway clusters and Legoland parks generating millions in weekly revenue.

The Disney community #DisTwitter -
Keeps up to the 3 year old concept art seen above but we have a trailer. Seems as if the band / app will play a central role within the park. I see it as an upgrade to those interactive quest experiences you can do at Disney. Assuming the app will have upsells, merch etc this park will just be printing money.

We un-immerse you from an immersive experience..

This gem of a video was missed last season.....
-
Excellent video from the op cabin of Hangover, nice to have this in English for a change.
-
Also have to remember the merch sales it now entitles the shop to hold and that's where the publishers make their money.
-
If anything its going in the other direction, thorpe have advertised for lifeguards, so your beach is going nowhere besides its part of the history of thorpe park. Apologies if that doesn't fit your enthusiast agenda.
-
Why does everything Merlin do have to appeal to specific just you. The beach is a key driver of families to the park during the summer.
-
What a load of rubbish, there's a shuttle bus running every 10mins lol more of which could be put on depending on event demand. Staines station is also 35 mins out of London.
-
Wait till you try it before judging, this project has been kept relatively secretive who knows what could be built. Besides, the ghost trains at WW are short but you still pay £6 for them.....
-
This system just seems stupid, imagine rocking u to the park at 8am, paying full entry fee and still not being able to join the queue for this ride....
-
thanks for the clarification.
-
Could someone please send me the Merlin and Thorpe park manual for health and safety on detonator. This needs clarification. I was mortified the other day when I went on hangover and there was no seat-belt.
-
Legoland has a good list of rides open in half term. MAP holdrs will still complain a day out will cost £5pp
-
I believe Wastelands is getting an expansion to make it a muti-floored maze.
