October 7, 201410 yr comment_193998 I would like either a wooden coaster or a good and only good dark ride. I honestly really don't want a 'Inferno Sub Terror' I think Sub Terror at Alton is awful not at all scary and also has a bad PPH. The thing I want the most if a good classic wooden rollercoaster to add to Canada Creek.
October 7, 201410 yr Author comment_194002 there's some of us being sarcastic about having an inferno sub-terra... but I actually think I'd cry if thorpe decided to get one. but... I'm not even joking... please... top spin!
October 7, 201410 yr comment_194009 Thorpe really don't need any more water rides... ... and the world doesn't need any more AquaTrax.
October 7, 201410 yr comment_194013 ... and the world doesn't need any more AquaTrax. Clearly does... Every park needs an AquaTrax!
October 8, 201410 yr comment_194221 The area sure has changed a lot in the space of 4 weeks... http://www.themeparkguide.biz/news/miss-hippos-fungle-safari-deconstruction
October 8, 201410 yr comment_194250 If they do get a top spin I hope it will ride nothing like Ramesis at Chessington as that is a absolute killer on my shoulders... its hurts like he'll.
October 9, 201410 yr comment_194260 If I wanted to go on a topspin, I'd just go to Chessington. Topspins are a bit....generic and ordinary.
October 9, 201410 yr comment_194270 God it's not even closed season and everyone's seemingly obsessed with Top Spins again... *hibernates*
October 9, 201410 yr comment_194279 Duelling Top Spins with 2nd Detty Tower in the middle. From a reliable sauce.
October 9, 201410 yr comment_194284 How big is that space? they could move the fish over to there so its got all of the family rides together, which would then allow a new ride between the swarm and tidal wave.
October 9, 201410 yr comment_194285 How big is that space? they could move the fish over to there so its got all of the family rides together, which would then allow a new ride between the swarm and tidal wave. Why not just put a new ride in the Fungle spot?
October 9, 201410 yr Author comment_194286 How big is that space? they could move the fish over to there so its got all of the family rides together, which would then allow a new ride between the swarm and tidal wave. It's a good idea, but I just can't see them moving fish as it's too much effort for them, unless it's genuinely going to be advertsied as a new experience/attraction like scorpion express at chessington. EDIT: but then they could just update it where it is if necessary as it's hardly taking up any useable space.
October 9, 201410 yr comment_194287 The scorpion express did show that people will turn up for a retheme, having all of the family rides in one place could be useful as it would be better for familys and open up the space the fish is currently in. Remove depth charge and the beach and then they have a massive area for multiple large investments. A large family coaster could go where the fish and the beach currently is which leaves the large coaster spots open for future investments, encourages more familys and still attracts people next year with little money spent.

Move Depth Charge or get rid of it I'm asking cause I love Deppie
October 9, 201410 yr Author comment_194293 I can't see the beach being changed yet... Potential things / spaces Flying fish (scorpion express treatment) Hippo safari area new ride... I can see both of those realistically being new for next year... Then hopefully a new coaster for 2016, as any later would be a complete pain! Canada creek, and the back of the park as well the island are potentially locations for a new coaster... Plus with samurai or slammer maybe packing in suddenly, there's more available space... and with the arena area potentially large enough for a dark ride which is realistically the only place one could go. so really no need to touch The beach at the moment as its still popular with families, until the full hotel is built and shipping containers are gone, as the beach area and area where the shipping containers leaves a large area for new lands/rides.
October 9, 201410 yr comment_194297 Explains its early closure and the hole digging. The fish seems an easy ride to move as well.
October 9, 201410 yr comment_194298 Maybe Thorpe'll take my suggestion and move Fish to the old Fungle site!
October 9, 201410 yr comment_194299 So next year we're getting Fish moved for a second time with a retheme... This is top tier theme parking right here... Also, was Scorpion Express really a success? Given that Chessie's figures don't tend to fluciate wildly, and a lot of visitors probably didn't turn up last year because the park was dreadful and pointless...
October 9, 201410 yr comment_194301 It wouldn't surprise me if we did just get the fish moved. Its not exactly in a good place or with good theming.
