Jamie_Hk Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 why should they be allowed to get married on SAW when it isn't even open yet?Although it is a shame the couple didn't give any reviews on the ride in the article.I heard the couple on Capital the other day and Capital was giving them the chance to pick where they'd like to get married, so they chose Saw: The Ride. Would've been good to see a video Quote
esp3001 Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 Perhaps they didn't actually ride it. Maybe it was simply a publisity stunt. Although I doubt it... But then again I've only seen a little picture, is there any others? Quote
James Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 It was a publicity stunt, and they didn't actually ride it. Quote
Jamie_Hk Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 Hmm really, that's a bit pointless lol. Quote
Barnes Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 Its official, they did not ride Saw. Quote
Sidders Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 From what I saw when I passed, trains were going up the lift hill every 20-30 seconds. I'm preety sure it will be very similar throughout Thrill Chill.But SAW isn't open for Thrill Chill. Quote
Jamie_Hk Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 HAHA, so Thorpe can actually go to lengths like that to advertise their rides? Well in The Sun, it didn't even mention the rides name so that didn't work too well. But SAW isn't open for Thrill Chill.For testing, it probably will be. Quote
JoshC. Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 But SAW isn't open for Thrill Chill.What I meant to say is I think they'll probably be testing it at a similar rate throughout the rest of Thrill Chill. Sorry I wasn't clear.I think the name wans't mentioned in The Sun's article because:The name was on the car.It will mean there'll be less complaints. Quote
Jamie_Hk Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 True...well still, this means that the 'first to ride' comp will still stay true to it's name. Quote
TimR Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 I wonder when disciples of saw will be announced because they are leaving it a bit late now arent they? Quote
James Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 Not really, still a month to go. Quote
Jamie_Hk Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 They'll be announced soon I imagine. There isn't that long left, but yeah, it'll probs be announced within the first week of March. Quote
Dan9 Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 Saw actually makes a rather nice sound when a car goes over its lift hill. Anyway for those Saw photo enthusiasts... Quote
Phyciodes Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 Yeah some nice pics there. Was nice to see that squeaking sound appeared to have stopped! Its looking very smooth as well Quote
alexandercameron Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 Great photos TP Dan! Just what we have been waiting for I'm a little surprised, I assumed more work had been done to the surrounding area ie paving and the bridge, which looks far from finished!I can see why it doesn't open until a months time Anyway thank you! Been waiting all day for these bad boys!Keep them coming people Quote
dj olly c Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 I have to say the landscaping looks far from finished, I'm going to tomorrow so I'll see for myself but on the hole the themeing looks brillant ,1 thing though the head-chopper could of been a bit lower and any news on the windmill? Quote
Phyciodes Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 Any lower and it could be a great hazard! The head chopper will be effective in the sense that people will be looking down at it from above and from that angle it'll look like you're gonna hit it. Quote
Chris Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 http://img.thesun.co.uk/multimedia/archive...682_733076a.jpgso people did ride it ? :| Quote
Jamie_Hk Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 Exactly...like you say, any lower and it'd literally be a head chopper :(Thanks for those pictures btw, it's great to see some with the cars in motion. I'll try and get as many as I can on monday maybe there'll be a few more changes. Quote
James Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 http://img.thesun.co.uk/multimedia/archive...682_733076a.jpgso people did ride it ? :|Nobody has been round the circuit on it, they're simply sitting on the car looking like idiots with their arms up coz the cars do like 2mph at the point of the ride (the bottom of the lift hill). Quote
StevenVig Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 They did ride it. They must have paid thorpe or summin. Quote
Jamie_Hk Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 How did you find out, not that I'm disbelieving you. Quote
TP Dan Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 How did you find out, not that I'm disbelieving you.I believe Thorpe Staff confirmed it today. Quote
Sidders Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 We should just drop it, it's not as if we're going to be pleased if they did ride.Which they didn't Quote
