    Silly or embarrassing things you’ve done at theme parks

    This is definatley the thread for you Holland I believe I've had the honour of having my name shouted from the top of Shambhala.

    Hex [2024 Refurb]: General Discussion

    Probably not the right thread for this, but I will say and I know @Thameslink Rail will agree, banquets in the towers, maybe during the Christmas season, would work so well.

    Lightwater Valley

    I'm not so sure, they seemed to have managed the transition much better, and I believe that Brighton Pier group said it was making a profit or at least breaking even. It's a shame they've gone down this route however it does seem to be working for them, which is the long run is better than the...

    Fun Spot Atlanta opening an RMC in 2022

    It looks like a good coaster and all but I can't help really disliking the entire branding, the name for starters is dreadful. That video was shocking, the ride itself on the other hand clearly will be great.

    London Entertainment Resort: All Discussion

    Well well well, what a surprise..... This project is well and truly dead, as it has been since about 2013.

    Drayton Manor Park

    I think this is unlikely, but certainly possible. I think they would've gone for it had Paultons not already got one. I think Drayton might want to go for something with an easily marketable feature. Perhaps something like a family launch coaster.

    Future of the Congo River Rapids

    Well it's certainly great to see the waterfalls make a return, there's clearly some intention but improve the guest experience at the park, which hasn't been there for some time. But is this the major refurbishment the rapids are in need of? No, but I do think there's the potential that, instead...

    Another vote for Thirteen, there must be some many great stories of taking first time riders on it.

    The Retrosquad: General Discussion

    See this is why I never thought the retro-squad should have come back for a second year. It's just going to become something they'll do long term because they can get away with it in nearly a COVID free year.

    Oblivion: General Discussion

    Oblivion definitely shouldn't have vest restraints, it's fine how it is. If anything lapbar's would be nice but realistically keeping the standard B&M over the shoulders is perfectly fine.

    SeaWorld Orlando: General Discussion

    It does look flimsy in a way but knowing B&M it will probably still be built like a tank.

    Enterprise Site

    Towers really could've done with enterprise this season for capacity reasons. As much as I didn't expect them to open it again it would've been nice to know what ride line up to expect and therefore what's going in it's spot.

    ChatGPT and AI

    Chatgpt is an amazing tool with some great features, I've used it to assist with a variety of things as well as making it write funny stories and things like that. Having it implemented with bing will quickly make bing incredibly powerful.

    [20XX] Puy du Fou UK

    I think the main problem thus place might have marketing wise is the press calling it a theme park. So when people actually look into it and find they don't have rides I'm not sure people will bother. Its not that I don't think the British public wouldn't enjoy it or that it wouldn't appeal...

    [20XX] Puy du Fou UK

    But Warwick castle has an actual historical castle to draw people in too. I think there's an appetite for it in a way I just don't see how they are going to market it.

    [20XX] Puy du Fou UK

    I can't really see this working in the UK if I'm honest. I think geneerally the British public are going to expect rides from something like this, so just having shows I don't think will keep the attention span. But it's an interesting prospect and if they can make it work then it will certainly...

    Nemesis: Sub-Terra

    I've not been very active recently, would anybody be kind enough to tell me what's going on with sub-terra? Is it still possible for a return?

    The BBC did an eggcellent job but I'm afraid they didn't quite crack it.
