@SoCal360 If only these two were still open... would've been great competitors if they were looked after.

@GypsRoccus Mate, that's amazing! There are definitely people out there who would be more than capable of ripping the audio out (and hopefully in a lossless format).

[Louis Wright @louiswright101]

@GypsRoccus Indeed it is! Great leitmotif!

Aha, had a feeling it was done by John Franklin! He's a great composer! He did loads of stuff for Golding Leisure, including Apirama at Meli Park. He was actually part of the New Seekers band before he moved to making music for Theme Parks.

@GypsRoccus Oh thank god 🤣

Thought it was a creative choice of theirs. Happy to hear it'll be rectified (soon hopefully).

[Louis Wright @louiswright101]

@GypsRoccus It sounds different compared to the one on Spotify. Sounds like they toned it's pitch and speed down a bit.

With the recent announcement of Euro Mir at @europa_park closing this season, to brighten everyone's mood up a bit, below is a recreation of the Rides Logo.

Now, the logo has been online for years, but in low quality. So I decided to open Adobe Illustrator and change that!

@craig_toy By far the original!

Better theme, memorable soundtrack, no in your face story telling or 'lore'. Eerie atmosphere too!

And smoother as well IMO.

The only real improvement Reborn has over the original is the stations interior. Everything else is a downgrade personally.

[Louis Wright @louiswright101]

@TowersTimes Would love to see them repainted back to their original 80s look with the yellow track and dark green supports.

[Louis Wright @louiswright101]

@THORPEPARK Does it still play the original music?

Cataloguing Film Collections

Film is Fabulous! are pleased to announce that three film collections, which belong to former industry professionals, or their estates, will be catalogued in the new year.

@olibarnacle Ah, that's a shame. If you or who has it ever want to restore it though, try baking it, its a process many Reel users do with old tapes before digitisation. I hear that does temporarily restore the higher frequencies (if they're missing or degraded) albeit for a week or 2.

[Louis Wright @louiswright101]

@WDWoutloud 1) Pirate Adventure (Drayton Manor)

2) The Haunted House (Alton Towers)

3) Los Piratas (Bellewaerde)

@ThemeParkWW JAWS

[Louis Wright @louiswright101]

@ThemeParkWW Absolutely the original! Black is just a very tacky and unimaginative colour. I just can't see the appeal behind it. The track and creature looked batter when it actually looked more organic, like an actual lovecraftian creature.

[Louis Wright @louiswright101]

@DarkRideArts Here's what I mean. There's a great documentary of The Original Haunted House, in which guns were added later, but mostly remained the same aside from a few props, audio changes, and a scene replaced. It looked phenomenal!

No lore, just a basic premise

[Louis Wright @louiswright101]

@DarkRideArts No, even worse... announcements in the area saying safety spells about the creatures and how the organisation is taking care of things... and a random TV in the queue of a scientist explaining unnecessary lore.

It could be worse though, it could be Curse at Alton Manor.
