    Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

    My thoughts on the possibility of the white units on the rocks. I have three possibilities. 1. They are GPS units. If the ride vehicles partly use GPS along with hidden wires for control, these units could be getting a reference positions. Instead of relying on a global map to navigate it...

    Race Through NY Starring Jimmy Fallon

    Quite a few actually. Hollywood is closer and it still get the larger number but a large number of Australians make the trek to Orlando. Most of the time on the US east coast Australians get confused with the British, as our accents are not as distinct as the stereotypical accent we are given...

    He is actually one of the more known US talk show personalities in Australia. The Tonight Show airs here on public television, and is about the size of Letterman here.

    The Hat Coming Down

    Does anyone know or have any idea about what they will do with the spot that the hat occupied? It would be too big of a space to just leave blank. Some flower beds and some seating maybe.

    2014 World Cup

    The lowest ranked team by a long shot put into the group of death. Also doesn't help that the squad is almost completely filled with young and inexperienced players. The whole country is just glad they are there as they are ranked 62nd and there are only 32 teams in the cup. Our team was just...

    Wizarding World - Diagon Alley Discussion - Part 2

    Quick question, how visible is the dragon from around the park? Attractions magazine posted a video of the wing being moved into place, and the dragon seems to stick out like a sore thumb, but in the description of the video it says that its well hidden. This is the video I am referring to...

    Roller Coaster Tycoon 4

    I have little to no confidence in Atari as a company. The way they treat fans is just disrespectful, and they don't care about anything apart from money which they have made clear time and time again. I was apart of the Atari forums for years and the company showed no respect there at all. A...

    Jurassic World VelociCoaster Construction Thread (Opening June 10)

    The Hollywood version has the ability to adjust how wet the riders get, to make better use of the ride in winter months. I was there a few years ago in January and I didn't get a drop on me (apart from being spat on by the dilos) in 10 rides over the two days (the park was empty so everything...

    Jurassic World VelociCoaster Construction Thread (Opening June 10)

    The USH version has the t-rex at the drop and a t-rex coming down from a hole in the ceiling towards the top of the lift hill.

    Jurassic World VelociCoaster Construction Thread (Opening June 10)

    There are no raptors on the Hollywood version before the lift hill either. It because they don't stick around their old holding pen. They need to explore they are animals after all.

    Music at Universal Studios

    Since when as Holiday been in Beetlejuice? I have even looked at videos on youtube of the show around 2011 and the final song way You Shook Me All Night Long. Or is it just a song that plays in the background not in the show. As if its in the show I need to see it. Also you can add Green Day's...

    Star Wars Themed Land Speculation

    I think Skip is refering to the fact that, the scope of the project required to turn WDW around is far too large, that it would take a huge amount of time and resources that no single management can do. So therefore would require several good management teams in a row to get the whole resort...

    Star Wars Themed Land Speculation

    Which is funny, as you would of thought they would of learnt about these issues from having the same ride system years ago. Its the one thing in carsland that has puzzled me since they announced it as they hated it when they first did it but they went ahead and did it again.

    Site Responsiveness

    The forums should now be usable. This is just my guess of how things went down. This warning came up yesterday so the forums were taken down in order to trying and resolve it. Then as a result of the forum had to be taken back to the 25th. In order to delete the issue which was causing the...

    The Old KidZone Thread

    I will give that too you as I should have been more specific. Boomerang is a pay tv station. Pay tv is not very common here at all. In fact less then 1/3 (years ago with a rapidly declining market share) with a large chunk of them being hotels. Then boomerang is only chosen when you select the...

    Pandora: The World of Avatar Announcement, Construction, & Preview Discussion

    They could do it by making the ground into a large magnet then making the mountains a magnet with the same pole, causing the too to repel each the mountain float. However they would then have a major issue with guests with metallic objects becoming stuck under these mountain and chaos would...
