  1. I recently came up with the crazy idea for a Morph themed dark ride, actually!
  2. Well when I went, most people seemed to think the disabled/fastrack queue was the main entrance, causing that section to get REALLY crowded!
  3. ...and smoke effects for the drop to give the effect of the explosion
  4. I've just realised something - Shouldn't Rovio be included in the 'sponsors' section on the park map?
  5. I'm pretty sure Chessington's have a longer ride time though...

    Not that I know of

    Just to clarify Slammer was (sort of) getting going today during testing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=xAyTncqExIg ...Wow! That thing really is on it's last legs!

    Original one sounded sooo much better!
  9. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=qbpwncmzQp8 ...and now - MY PERSONAL REVIEW Personally, I thought Angry Birds Land was actually pretty good. It breathed not just a new look into the area, but also a new FEEL as well! Angry Birds 4D I thought was amazing and very well put together, especially with the effects combined. King Pig's Wild Hog Dodgems were EXTREMELY enjoyable, and it was a nice touch to hear the Angry Birds GO! soundtrack playing within the ride. This was once one of my weak points, but Detonator was still as good as ever, but to be fair, the old theme tune seems to fit in with the theme...maybe...not so sure, but who knows if Rovio are currently developing a NEW theme tune for it and the old Detonator theme is just temporary while this happens. Talking of which, the soundtrack to the area itself was quite decent, as it combines various remixes of the theme tunes of some of the AB games with the ambience of a battle between the birds and the pigs in the background (which goes with the vinyls on the walls nicely). Overall, I'd rate Angry Birds Land 5/10, as yes it's just what Thorpe need to bring back the families, but despite my compliments above, it still lacks theming and (as ALL of you know) it cuts Stealth off from the rest of Amity Cove.

    I meant the version ORIGINALLY played in the station, unless that's what you mean
  11. Those of you going to Thorpe in the coming days (me included), prepare for one HELL of a complete cacophony! (Angry Birds theme tune: Detonator audio)
  12. Do Thorpe actually know ANYTHING about theming atm?
  13. Still remember those days of what John Wardley calls "the dark patch". Didn't he say that when it was announced that Merlin took over, you could hear the CHEERS of everyone in the company!
  14. ...and is that Angry Birds related?
  15. FINALLY! A SHREK 4D TYPE EXPERIENCE IN THE UK AT LAST!
  16. Texas Chainsaw? When The Asylum had a chainsaw-wielding maniac at the end? HELL YES!
  17. Kerfuffle replied to Dan9's topic in UK Attractions
    If anyone's been to Chessie lately, has the station soundtrack for Vamps been sorted out yet? Still miss that heavy bass line!
  18. I'll never forget my first time on Nemesis Inferno! Mainly my reaction, going through the loop for the first time: "OK, we're now off the lift hill! WHEEEEEEEEEEEE! OMG here comes the first inversion... ...WAIT - WHERE DID THE TRACK GO??? Oh what a peculiar feeling!"
  19. I'll DEFINITELY be having a walk around next time I go to Towers once exams () have finished
  20. Negatives, Negatives, Negatives! Well, at least we know where electricBill's 'FORP GOES WRONG' comes from now!
  21. Welcome to Alton Towers - the ONLY theme park in the UK that seems to get everything right!
  22. Well, to be fair, it's better than a pointless pirate theme with an empty, lifeless 4D cinema building! This is ALL a matter of opinion, but I think it looks great for a family-friendly area themed around one of the most popular and most purchased games on the App Store/Google Play etc. As I said, this is just my opinion, so NO ONE, especially you Cornflakes, get mad at me for liking on something you don't like the look of! I AM a proud Angry Birds/Bad Piggies player after all!
  23. "What happens when CoasterDude doesn't get his Angry Bird Award? He gets VERY...ANGRYYYYYYY!!!"
  24. Still don't know why it HAS to be an Angry Birds Space bomb-bird though. Could that be the main theme? http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r566/CoasterDude97/Other/10262025_10154093122925624_6300829736812959455_n_zps3c63d0cb.jpg
  25. Hmmm, no arm-holes? What if they trip over something?
