They're going to use that demon costume they used for promo last year I bet. I remember speaking to someone possibly at press about the costume and they talked about how it would have been nice but there just wasn't a way to utilise it.
[spoilers] I can think of them using it in the tunnel scene. Behind everyone is an access door that throughout the press night had a girl actor with face a little messed up running towards the crowd during the "Get out" bit. I could see it coming through them doors. [/spoilers]

I didn't find that ending scene that emotional. I've seen it hundreds of times in other drama for example. I think my main issue is its being sold as a musical but those elements don't go beyond a great opening number for me. It may be sacrilege to say, I found Moana far more engaging as a story, as a musical and an emotional piece of film.
Yeah have to admit that it's not as much as a musical as it wanted to be.
You see that final scene got me, I loved it as it reminded me of Scrubs

Hex and Driving School are back out of the ones closed last year, however Toadstool is closed (but listed under refurbishment) and Ice Age is also off the list...
Terry and Charlie remain closed, though Terry remains on the list...
It's weird how some they say are unavailable and some they take off the website, very interesting consistency..

Isn't Drew Bronner just a pseudonym/anagram for Derren Brown?
Damn straight!

It's more than okay.. it's
nothingspecial though. It's more a rom-com in Musical clothing. The moment he returned with a special meal being cooked, I knew the big argument scene was coming.Corrected
That's the whole point of it... It is a rom-com in Musical clothing, of course it is. The beauty of it is the musical numbers and the scenes reminiscent of theatrical musicals gone by, from the weird Observatory scene to everyone getting out of there car to dance and then immediately get back in the car and carry on with usual human emotions such as road rage!
How can you not feel emotional at the final scene where Emma's character is thinking what could have happened without the fighting and how happy there lives could have been if they hadn't both been so obsessed in achieving there dreams!

Just got myself some queue line signage from a recently deceased dark ride in Cleethorpes, That ride being Tommy Tinkaboo's Sweet Adventure:
The 4th one is actually from the ride itself (rather than queue line) and one of the original (I believe) Rex Studios sign after it's revamp in 2002.

Ridiculous.
Not good enough.
Who do they think they are, Alton Towers?!
Obviously I know you comment was in jest but...
To be fair to them there are some serious structural issues going on with that ride and seems they realised it's more than what they initially expected. As well as the money aspect of it, it's kind of an unexpected issue that's popped up and clearly more than there maintenance budget. It wouldn't have been an issue they would have taken lightly. Germans love efficiency!.

2. These are already a thing; different headsets get different characters with slight variations. It might not have got up to 12 but the differences are so slight as to not really matter. The overall experience remains the same.
Three characters all saying the same lines and 2 (I think) ghosts who say pretty much the same thing and move pretty much the same. Get's pretty boring... They could have been imaginative in the way they vary the telling of the story whilst still matching up to the in train effects.
Does my eye look okay to you?

Could it maybe not have anything to do with the film and just be called Wickerman , with a giant wickerman to go with a fabricated towers story similar to hex? That wouldn't be that bad
Beat me to it, was about to say the same thing!

Apart from the normal Merlin parks I'm hoping to do Oakwood, Flamingo Land, Lightwater Valley and Blackpool. And of course Paultons for the kids. I did look into a European road trip, but currently it is outside my price range
Depends how much your price range is, currently planning a 4 person, 10 day trip to 8 parks with 7 nights in a Haven style caravan and 2 nights in the Matamba hotel at Phantasialand for £385pp.
Parks:
- Plopsaland
- Wailbi Belgium
- Walibi Holland
- Efteling
- Toverland
- Slagharen
- Movie Park Germany
- Phantasialand

I can assure you, nothing has been done to the surrounding area of LL for the entire 2016 season, After going on BTS of Platform 15 on the 29th October, there was literally no change, apart from a bear in the trough.
You can just see his rump there!
That's not to say nothing has been done since, but it's highly likely nothing has...

But I thought Thorpe wanted to bring more families to the park?
And treating Twitter responses as the official line? Never a good idea with the distinct lack of communication between departments...
You would however expect those dealing with the public to know the facts...

New Game Alert!
Rules are simple, Person above you will post a theme park / attraction picture from a month (From Jan - Dec, in that order).
Include a description of the moment leading up to that photo (why you were there etc.) or a memory that happened on that day.
You post a picture from the next month, once we get to December we loop back round to January.
Not particularly any end goal but a fun way to celebrate theme parks and attractions during this chilly cold season.
Rules:
- Must post a picture from the next month
- Can only Re-post after three other users have been
- Have fun!
So I'll kick it off with: (This will also be the pattern to follow)
January:
Memory:
Visited Shrek's Adventure for the first time as I went down to London to watch The Hateful Eight in 70mm UltraPanovision screening and had some time to kill!
Next Month: February

I've done all but Edinburgh in the UK (May be getting that cred before new year), Although never did Tooley Street. Never done any Abroad but may get the Amsterdam one under my belt next year
Here's the order I would put them in:
1) York Dungeons
2) Castle Dungeons
3) London Dungeons
4) Blackpool Dungeons
As you can tell I prefer the more Classic Dungeons, that don't have rides as I feel they detract from the atmosphere.
York Dungeons is great since it's forced refurb, Love the final witch burning scene.
Castle Dungeons has a great atmosphere, in an actual Castle, very small spaces and provides a beautiful 360 experience unlike some of the other ones that have a black roof but feels a bit old due to not being able to change it up due to lack of space.
London Dungeons feels great and love the boat ride, bit meh with the drop tower.
Blackpool dungeons feels a bit meh with the drop tower witch hanging, just doesn't feel that immersive.

Done!

Isn't 5D basically just 4D but with a physically moving transit system?
So still meaningless marketing dribble in one sense, but I guess you could argue 5D is a legitimate thing...
Well Tayto Park have a 5D Cinema and that's basically in a shed!

Banned for dissing Inferno.
She may not be the best invert out there but she's still a great coaster.
Banned for being on a Thorpe Park Fansite and admitting Inferno isn't the best invert out there (we know it's not but you will get the Thorpe Police on us)
