[2024] Nemesis Reborn: Construction and Speculation

[Blackhole_Sun]

Lots of activity around here today. The Nemesis creature is making roaring noises like it was on the last day of last season. Also some snippets of the sound track playing like we had in the video released last night.

Had a go at a logo and how I would like it to look, would love it if they could incorporate the old with the new in some way but can't see it happening.

Pretty sure whatever the logo ends up being the Reborn part (which I think will last a season) will be written as:

REI30RN

That’s so good! May have to set that as my desktop background

I don't know why I didn't do that originally lol. I've quickly edited it and added it to the post above.

This looks like a bad personal number plate!

Apparently red lights and white search lights are being fitted around the site. Very interesting.

Those veins go quite well with the red lights.

Are we sure that the vloggers haven't just taken a saw to the perimeter in order to get more varied shots? It's been a long season for them and no doubt they're getting itchy.

All out for Nemesis this year and next

Turns out we've been wrong about the holes in the fence all day, it wasn't the Nemesis monster after all.

Spoiler

The red veins on the track really do seem to "pop" and look quite prominent in that light. Looking good.
Also the search lights do feed into my theory on what Galactica's re-theme/story might be for next year.
My theory is Galactica is going to be some sort of aerial surveillance of the Nemesis creature, but you are spotted by the monster or phalanx while at the top of the lift-hill, and the rest of the ride is evasive manoeuvres to get back to the base.

Wonder if the nemesis fence will become more torn throughout the weekend

Ie the original military theme pre 9/11

Ie the original military theme pre 9/11

has there ever been real confirmation of this or is it just a very persistent rumour?

 

[DiogoJ42]

I was under the impression that the only reason for the “military themed Air” theory, was that the demo model used off the shelf toy soldiers for scale?
I could be wrong here.

This was my recollection also. I don't remember there being any other references to a military theme. People saw those little soldiers and the idea of a military theme spun out from there. However once the rides original sponsor was announced (Cadbury's Miniature Heroes) there were further theories that those little soliders could have been some link to that.

Looking back at the cancelled concept art and the branding used for the ride even before 9/11 whilst it was under construction, nothing points towards military. This was the poster up at the construction site in April 2001 which uses the 'Air' style branding that the ride opened with. Further suggesting it is unlikely that they were planning on a theme that needed to be changed post 9/11.
