JoshC. Posted November 16 Report Share Posted November 16 The rethemed Angry Birds Land has been announced as Big Easy Boulevard... We'll keep discussion of that in here now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyRocket Posted November 16 Report Share Posted November 16 2 out of 3 isn’t bad!! Very pleased with this. A good compromise for integrating it back in with the 1950s American theme of Amity but with a new twist. Trooper Looper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyMoo Posted November 16 Report Share Posted November 16 Love it, it's a real Hoot Hoot of a theme. Genuinely though, looks good, hope the concept art comes to fruition. Makes sense with the surrounding area too. jessica2, Trooper Looper, Inferno and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinlarr89 Posted November 16 Report Share Posted November 16 Great choice in my opinion. Nice and vibrant, and will tie it in well with amity next door. Looks fantastic Trooper Looper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exodus Matt Posted November 16 Report Share Posted November 16 If this ends up like the concept art, it will be quite the improvement. Angry birds was a cheap (cheap) area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jessica2 Posted November 17 Report Share Posted November 17 agreed I am pleased with this! It never made sense for me to have a random bitty unrelated land breaking up amity, bigger lands/themes have more impact. Trooper Looper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cal Posted November 17 Report Share Posted November 17 Looks like a good replacement - better than I expected to be honest and fits in with the surrounding area well. For anyone wondering, as expected Detonators original soundtrack won't be returning, it'll be a new one 😢 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The concept art looks fine. Depends on if they actually use some depth in the painting of the buildings or just paint them in one flat colour and call it a day like Towers tend to.

alexander Posted November 18 Report Share Posted November 18 Credit where credit is due, I think this a great pick. Merges well with the existing lands and shows a bit of effort put in. Good job Thorpe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ML27 Posted November 18 Report Share Posted November 18 It’s a bit of a weird one for me and I can tell for a few people. This is better than my expectations, I love that detonator will finally get a decent theme and the cinema is so versatile so no matter what it is used for and when. It will just be “Thorpes cinema”, even for conferences ect… The detail and look is better than what I expected, just maybe a little less empty but guest flow and events have been considered, so it’s pretty good. Thing is, I know we knew this but it is a repaint and repair of existing buildings. These buildings are some of the original buildings and have been used over and over again. It would have been nice to see some dramatic changes to the area to change it up a bit. It may have been nice to create different uses for the shop and the peckish food outlets. Just add something new. however, it’s nice to see Thorpe go down a themed route which is smart, fits in and won’t stick out. It’s not focused on new rides and bringing people into the park. It’s a project about putting pride into the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshC. Posted November 19 Author Report Share Posted November 19 I like the idea. It's smart and slick, and will remain as a hub for the Mardi Gras event which will no doubt continue in the future. Hopefully we see some 3D facades rather than just simple paint jobs. Or just some extra details. One of the issues I felt with Angry Birds Land is everything largely felt flat and basic, with some of the detailing lost from the previous area (canon shot marks on the buildings, etc).

1729 Posted November 24 Report Share Posted November 24 Its good to see a redo of this area even if its the situation of making thematic adjustments to what's already there. Just a Shame it couldn't be like when Angry Birds Land appeared they added a small flat, since the dodgems was a great addition and something similar is a good addition to the park, a small flat that everyone likes. Though its a question of what and where Hopefully the 3d Show will be good, though the graphic suggests its currently unknown or perhaps multiple shows. Or the lake freezes over and Pirates 4D comes back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
