Right, this maybe a controversial coaster nerd statement, as pretty much everyone I've told has responded with things like "Don't worry, opinions can be wrong" and "Whats wrong with you?" But, I want to just put it out there for the world to here, because I just have to say it. I...

Were you in back row with Taylor B?

Not in this pic, but me and Taylor both did back row.

Finally rode Wickerman for the first time today and let me just say WOW I LOVED IT, I did it back row and middle row and they were both fantastic experiences, a world class coaster and my first wooden coaster! I think I still prefer Nemesis in terms of layout, but overall, this is my fav ride in the...

I was at the park today with a few theme park fans when this got announced, one of them got on the phone and talked to someone who apparently works in higher management. According to them it's going where Charlie is and will have its layout changed, with the elevator being the first thing you enter,...

I'm kinda betting that the 2 drop sections will be slightly different from each other, with them having different audio effects, still quite an interesting development happening! Also I had no idea they were planning something else for Jurassic Park, I wonder if it maybe a Flying Dinosaur clone or s...

Apparently there is a strong rumor going around that Thorpe's next coaster will be a B&M Mini Dive, which I kinda hope not! Hyper or RMC!!!

I've had a few thoughts, but I do think the next SW will be aimed at teens/adults, with SWX (SW10) another thrill/family. Reason being, SW5 Air (high thrill), SW6 Th13teen (family thrill), SW7 Smiler (high thrill), SW8 Wicky (family thrill), so if the towers are going by this model (which I think is...

I went for an interview at the Magic HQ at AT a few months ago and around the corridors they had various posters one the walls showing concept art for Hex and Air, there were also models including one of Splash Landings dotted around. Maybe they could move these into a new building so everyone can s...

Rise of the Tomb Raider (PS4) - 8/10 Very solid and thrilling game, a little challenging in a few places but overall a great follow up to the 2013 game. Ratchet and Clank (PS4) - 9/10 A jam packed fun fest with great humour, characters and overall fun gameplay. Plus its currently free if you are on ...

From what I'm told by friends from the park, Mission Ferrari is having a few tweaking issues that they need to iron out (apparently they have been having rollback problems). The original opening was this summer, but its apparently being delayed to at least October. Shame, but hopefully it'll be grea...

Don't suppose anyone knows how busy AT and Blackpool PB are on weekdays towards the end of June?

Ambitious plans for a 20th Century Fox World theme park in Dubai are on hold due to concerns about oversupply, according to Mohammed Khammas, CEO of Al Ahli Group. It was due to be completed by 2020, but work has yet to begin. “We've realised that there’s now a serious supply of theme parks in Dubai...

Is a Saudi Arabia Disneyland going to happen? Disney CEO Bob Iger has admitted to discussing the possibility of building yet another Disney Resort, this time in Saudi Arabia. Saudi is changing currently with a new vision, Vision 2030 is a plan to reduce Saudi Arabia’s dependence on oil, diversify it...

I guess this Project 0 maybe the next big development in the park, the Thorpe Twitter account is teasing random 0s in a few tweets:

Same here Justin, Suffolk represent! I've also never been up to Blackpool, the place is just too far away. Sure, the same with Alton, but Blackpool is another hour and a bit. If I do head up there it would have to be for a long weekend trip hitting up other places. I've also heard from people that B...

I did a short solo trip a few weeks ago, most of my visits to a theme park are solo, it's nice as you can go at your own pace, however after a few hours, it does hit you and you feel a bit lonely. Sometimes you make conversation with random people in the queue, but other than that its mostly a day w...

As the Warner Bros Park is finishing its construction, Seaworld Abu Dhabi is expected to break ground later in the year.

The Yas Island group is currently under restructure and my friend who was working on the parks design has unfortunately left the project, so no more inside info I'm afraid!

Park will open on July 25th! Here are some ride descriptions and pics: https://travellerczech.files.wordpress.com/2018/04/1-warner-bros-world-theme-park-abu-dhabiimg_9265.jpg?w=836&h=836&crop=1&zoom=2 Entrance http://www.timeoutdubai.com/thumb/md-8/content/82897/2018_3_Warner_Bros_base.j...

What are the chances of it being one of the new concept Intamin inverted/sit down duelling coasters: http://www.amusementinsider.com/2017/11/connected-track-spotted-for-dueling.html They had to stop duelling the dragons, this would make a great replacement. 0% chance, the support style is the sit d...
