I knew the day would come when Europa would Exceed Disney when it came to innovation, instead of Vaguely copying - that day seems to have come sooner!
IF they pull this off - EPCOT will be 'FUMMIN' as they say!
To be fair I personally think my home parks are trash (pretty much the whole off the UK) - so I wouldn't want to inflict that on my fav coasters.... I'd much rather just move nearer to a better park lol.
so I'm going to base it off my FAVORITE park which is Europa - and I'd implant Untamed...
It was defiantly daytime shots - and the water was definitely dyed - And wasn't that old - I seem to remember it being a new-ish feature (late 90s to mid 00's).
It could have been from a temporary event or launch.
My vote goes to Mr Toads Wild ride at Disneyland, charming and effective - still goes to prove that a ride which still consists largely of 2D Plywood cut-outs (artfully painted by WDI of course) can still delight, the 'train coming towards you in tunnel' effect is an old but goody - and of...
This is a really random question - but 15-20 years ago when I was starting to get into parks - I remember seeing an image of a park which had a water feature/fountain where it had multiple spouts/cascades of different colours - each a separate dyed water to form a rainbow effect (prob each with...
The kiddy boat & car rides at Europa like the Elf boat, creepy 'puppet boat' & Di Vinci pedal monorail - rides you might miss at any other park - but it's all part of the Europa 'experience' to do them all each time I go!
LACTOSE - I'm lactose intolerant but allow myself a break at theme...
Perhaps it'a time to change the title of this thread or separate them - as it keeps appearing that another accident has happened or that it was recent etc, and therefore a little misleading in terms of news and relevant discussion.
great topic
One that I'm surprised no-one has mentioned (that I've noticed) is the transformation of Captain Jack from Skeleton to flesh-and-blood (animatronic) pirate on Shanghais POTC.
Other votes go to:-
The 'Mist room' in the Flying dutchmen at Efteling
The Bubbling Portholes on...
Would I be right in thinking Thorpe is unique in Europe being a dedicated 'thrill park' aimed at teens & 20's?
Most European parks aim at a family market but with Thrill rides (because the 'family' contain thrill seekers of course) - I can't think of another purely white knuckle park (or...
So shower thought...... So Rookburg and F.L.Y have been soft open a month or so now.... when will official open be? for the start of next season?
One thing I do hope with an official opening is they finally release some Merch - anything!! a pen or T-shirt will do!
I know it was posted earlier on in the discussion but can we please just return to this concept art and the theme! - especially now that Rookburg/FLY has opened -we'll soon be swamped in steampunk goodness here in Europe (which isn't a bad thing in my books)...
I image there are quite a number of people here planning to visit Germany in the next couple of months for F.L.Y etc
So how does everyone interpret the news today of another possible UK lockdown imminently/soon? - happen at Half term? - Will it be a complete lockdown like March/April? - or...
What EU quarantine do you speak of ? and do you have sorce/links? - not being rude, just some of us have Germany trips all booked in next few weeks - so important to be informed of any issues!
I have a soft spot for my First - which was Ghosterforce 2016 - It's still hard to believe it's ONLY been 4 years since i started going on CF trips - feels like I've been going on them decades!
On this particular trip I hit 2 lifetime Bucketlist parks - Phantasialand and Efteling........ so...
OMG are you actually meant to do that? If I came across that Id think it was malfunctioning and that person was in trouble! thats so 'never in America' I can't believe it's actually in America haha!
I get alot more out of a park with great theming but less quality coasters (but still fun) than a park with amazing coasters and no theming!
As a dark ride fan -they get be through the gates just as much as any coaster, and if there is none - I look to theming on coasters or park environment...
