A bit of an unexpected twist, the over shoulder restraints will be removed leaving just a lap bar.

Double post, worth it. Here is the dramatic flythrough. May I suggest getting to 2:12 and pausing for a bit then coming back 🍸 From the Blog: "It’s a rooftop bar and restaurant. We’re going to lean into that Mediterranean approach with sliders, salads, lamb and chicken gyros, tapas...

The Grand Helios hotel has had it's reveal video, finally, today. No dates but the usual CGI concept art moving through places that's been so great throughout this campaign. The inside looks great, most importantly the roof top bar is as fabulous as I'd hoped. The dome on top is thankfully...

Brace yourself for the incoming smog

The Emirates has its share of dark rides with underutilised tech and poorly executed theme - how did I miss that one? Would have been the cherry on top of a grumble pie. Laser focused is right though.

Right!?! Plus rides change over time, weather or circumstances on the day. And there's such a wide variety with some so completely different to others. I just don't know how people do it. Yet I can still see some rankings that just are baffling to me (like have we ridden the same thing) and...

An elevator lift for a whole train is cool, has that been done before for more than a car or 2? Beyond what Powder Keg does. I guess they can pair them up to use each other as counter weights. Ideally in full view of riders to go with the overall mood and motion of the door factory. But also I...

Hong Kong and Shanghai are far enough away to not be affected by Universals possibly eternal deal in Orlando for Spidey (& some others). Loads of these announcements are interesting. Would have liked more info on exactly where in the parks and what the ride type is as it's gonna be speculation...

This looks great. Big fan of the Fire Serpent Roll with its crazy motion, popping out and behind the mountain which will look great from the entrance plaza 🔥

According to my Six Flags annual pass from 2018 it's Over Georgia. Only spent 3/4 of a day there ever as the rain closed everything early (including the indoor rides, one of which is themed to flooding). For a brief moment I had an actual B&M hyper at home. It was a special time I miss greatly...

They spin me right 'round baby right 'round.

That apparently isn't what happened. British Ministry ideas were being planned for the original park then moved to Epic once it became a thing. It does allow for a much grander ride this way. Without hearing that insight it doesn't appear that way from the outside at all. Perhaps other Beast...

Some (ie my joggers) of the official merch printing falls apart in just one wash so dry clean it only.

Any version of these rides are great, possibly my favourite flat ride type. But I much prefer coasters, dark, water and even transport rides. Flats are the first to skip when there's lots to do. Will now look out for lap bar only ones.

For the sake of debates and my spreadsheet on what's a cred, please no. Otherwise I'd be somewhat interested although already happy with how it is right now.

Maybe the excuse for the 360 raptor roll name is it includes the turn into the station. That makes it a longer element overall and still completing the full 360 degrees. Not the best reasoning but none of the names feel any more absurd than some other 'unique' marketing tags we get. Looks like a...

Aqua Trax that doesn't look slow?

Its the 1920's for the streets and after the main films plot for the ride. No need to worry about time or space in Paris Potter though because magic and time tuners. If two London settings can be in different parks then sure why not. The flying dragon is larger and testing higher than I...

Steel Curtain woulda make the ideal Technic themed coaster with the frame work and classic colour scheme. What other reason could they possibly need to give the go ahead?

They have now also updated the original video with all those views to have the correct Star Racers name spoken. The expected final land has been revealed. Universal mentioned collaborating with the filmmakers & no unwelcomed cameos 🏳️‍⚧️ Again we were provided with minimal info on the main...
