yeah Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Where can I download the Call to Adventure or Towers Street music? I want either one as my ringtone Sent from my SM-G361F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yeah Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 All music on park seemed to have been turned up x3 today, apart from in the Vampire station where it was very quiet. Audio was very confusing on Vamp today - pre rec announcements on dispatch and exit for one train - only on exit for one with staff screaming over the PA again (with no enthusiasm may I add) and then only dispatch announcments for us. Also, the boarding announcments and dispatch seemed to alternate, and both go off sometimes. Old McDonald's Farmyard music playing in Land of the Dragons.

What? Having English spoken in an accent in keeping with the area the ride is themed to isn't remotely racist. So are we saying the 'seet back and hold tight, thees is a bumpy ride' in a Mexican accent is racist on the Mexican themed rattlesnake? Should everything only be in the Queens English, banishing accents? Mental. I don't think you understand racism.

StevenVig Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 It was probably replaced to make sure the announcement is clear. Let's face it, the old announcement wasn't that clear and its probably more important to have an announcement that can be easily understood on falls, unlike Rattlesnake where there are restraints.

Benin Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 On the other hand, the old "Keep your booty in the boaty ok?", probably did slide towards the dodgy racism card side of things... Only in the sense of people who get easily offended over stereotypes like that though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian-S Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Booty isn't the remotest bit racist, if you think it is then well, you are part of the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benin Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Err, I didn't say the word was... The way in which that line was delivered when it played, was very Mickey Rooney in Breakfast at Tiffanys though... And I heard that line a lot when on Peeking Heights...

Whatever Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 I Can imagine that Your Average Tumblr SJWtm would find it racist, but to be honest, that isn't racism. It's literally someone speaking in an oriental accent. With this kind of thinking, you could say that many rides are 'racist'. I think the current announcement is a very monotone British man saying 'Wise dragon say, you must keep your arms and legs inside the boat at all times' and It just seems very out of place.

"pRease keep arms and Regs" I dont think the Mexicana announcements are racism, and I dont think that all announcements should be queens English. However, substituting the "L"s for "R"s is stereotyping, and is actually pretty racist towards people from Asia. Its like saying all English people are posh and drink tea, or that all American people are fat and eat McDonalds all the time. Its really not true, and although most Asian people will have grown to accept it (I have seen a YouTube video called "How to do an Asian accent !!" where an Asian person (who had a very American-sounding accent might I add) spoke in a stereotypical accent), it may be very offensive to some. Most of the times I've come across people talking like that was to take the p*** out of people from the Orient. I'm no over-the-top Tumblr "Everthing is discrimination" kind of person, but that in my eyes is very stereotypical/racist. And yes, I understand racism. The kind of people who don't is those who shout "RACISM!!1!!!!!1!!" if someone states another's colour (while describing them). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TraX Posted May 12, 2016 Report Share Posted May 12, 2016 A lot of people might think it's over the top, but unfortunately the GP will complain about this type of thing. Chessington have been known to have roaming actors and even that got pulled due to 'racism' complaints. this is also the same park that is scared to put up a themed warning sign, rather than the official 'workplace' H&S signage.

Kerfuffle Posted May 12, 2016 Report Share Posted May 12, 2016 Well as far as I'm aware, the current Rattlesnake announcement has a Mexican accent - just not as amusing (or indeed stereotypical) as the old one. Fires of Fury 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stereotyping and racism are two completely different things, what you describe is indeed stereotyping, but it's not in the remotest bit racist. Racism is when someone believes someone else is inferior to them based solely on the color of their skin (or their religious beliefs) and singles them out or tries to restrict their fredom because of it, I.e. white only male toilets are racist, male toilets are not.

Ian-S Posted May 13, 2016 Report Share Posted May 13, 2016 Haha indeed, in another forum I'm a member of there's a thread about that too and the general tounge in cheek opinion (from a woman) was if women want true equality then they need to start emptying the bins, sweep the roads and standing up to go to the toilet... It didn't go down well with her fellow women but the men had as good laugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, I understand racism. Rather proving you don't while saying you do does not mean you do. Whatever, this is off topic now. Back on topic... What's the best music at Chessington then? Clearly the answer is Bubbleworks, anyone going to try and disagree?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgan.B Posted May 13, 2016 Report Share Posted May 13, 2016 Bubbleworks has such a catchy tune, but nothing beats Vampire. However I do love the new Dragon's Fury music... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
