Coarr this'll be yet another decent and good ride for flamingoland, which I'll try my best to go visit and ride next season (knowing how much of a pain in the arse flamingoland is to get to!).Good on them really, and will be following this construction as it goes along, lets hope its gives the park a well deserved boost in attendance.

Universal and disney rides support and advertise their own films, you nitwit, so yes it is sponsorship, considering the entire park isn't like that film companies thing. Disney is one huge advertisement. Universal is one huge advertisement.

Different words, same thing. I'm sure cussons collaberated with bubbles, tidal and flume. I'm sure fanta collaberated with thorpe park for fright nights again this year.At the end of the day, it promotes the brand, it gains it publicity which brings people out to go and watch the films, and therefore spending money. And whats better than having the ride NAMED after the brand, rather than having it related like.. AIR with minature heroes or such stuff. It's sponsorship.

I believe I said thorpe has reached a new low. Thorpe. Not chessington. Chessington entered their own low in 06.

Does thorpe have a dark ride based on shower gel?

Thorpe has reached an all-new low. Well done.

Any chance I can change to the previous skin, just so I can print screen my stuffs.. its different I tell ya!

Not the font in the posts, they're moohassive now. The text which says like The Mania Hub Forums > Extra Bits > Site News and Announcements > Thorpe Park Mania > Feedback is different and smaller, much smaller. Annoying crap. It was the same on the preview you sent me.

Rly? The fonts suddenly seem all tiny and squishy compared to the previous skin.Edit: Maybe its a smaller size? And the quick edit box doesn't work for me

FYI, I still dont like the font.

Ooh I had a sneek preview. Didn't like the font though, its too georgiefied .

Think I prefer the older style for photos on vampire. Not warmed to the new template things that picsolve use.

84,000 I believe. Was well chuffed.

Oi, the JBL speakers are newer than the bose speakers at chessie!

It was their awards evening video. Chessington did the exact same thing a few years ago, also on youtube somewhere.

Show me a ride with or without totally utterly gory gruesome theming which requires it to have an age restriction? Stop being so annoyingly moronic all of you.

Thorpe go effing mental about it due to previous incidents. Chessington quite frankly doesn't care much as long as its secure, I've seen many a person even been given their camera on the rides if they went to put it on the side

Did you read the wonderful new notices around the rides stating to wave your YourDay wristband in the station so the black things pick them up. Otherwise it wont record you

He's worked 4/6 times I've visited this year. One time the skull head was removed, other time he was completely borked. He seems like a very complicated parrot!

There's a new gate? Not noticed that.. I even opened said gate on friday morning so hmm! But yus, vampire is working.

Shame, I've quite enjoyed corkscrew.. its never ever been painful for me. It's quite nice to ride, nice and retro. Will miss it!

I wonder why..

Erm.. vampire was on three trains from the last week of july, so the same time as last year. It got longer queues because the park was busier (over 10k most days, instead of the 8k we got last year)

Woo! Something new to add to my collection. Cheers!

Nothing has been announced rideswise.
