I miss mad Mike. Haven't seen him for ages. Believe it or not, one of his best mates is the resident clown at dreamworld who is himself, a brilliant artist it turns out. Mike showed me his roof picture one day. It's a perfect copy of the roof of the sistene chapel but the only change was clown faces everywhere on everyone. Mike is a very special person. Laughter is always better than the alternative.

In the German version you could see one of the main characters, which was ALF (instead of Beetlejuice) already in the pre show on Screen on an Production of the Show while he’s being attacked by the Gremlins. I think that’s a far better idea than letting the character just appear when you enter the ride vehicles. They should have let Beetlejuice show up beforehand in the pre show so it makes more sense to the audience.

Interesting, I wonder why they chose Alf as I didn’t think he was part of Gremlins?

Hi, thanks for watching! Interesting pickup… I’m fairly sure that point in the video showed either another (prop ride car)or bunch of passengers who were either tied up with movie reel film as they had been captured by the gremlins. I could be wrong though, it was a long time ago. 😂 Yes this ride was from a time at movie world that we all fondly remember, a time when they spent a great deal of effort and expense on theming and the actors put in so much more effort to make the experience very special.

Ah good old Rodney from Tasmania! 😆 Every time I hear that name for the rest of my life, I still hear it in my head in the mocking voice Captain Harris does to him, "Rod-neeey". 🤣 I also used to watch this show every time we visited when I was a kid in the late 90's, I once even got selected as the child audience member to stand on the road and blow the whistle. 😄 Anyway, of all the times I saw the show, 99.9% of the time his name was Rodney from Tasmania, and the police captain always said to him: "I bet you've never seen so many people in the one place, that you aren't related too." 😂🤣 Guess they changed that last line by 2008. 😅 There also used to be a spot at 17:33 after Rodney's first fall, when he and his girlfriend enter the Blue Oyster Bar, where Rodney would fire a pistol out the window above at the robbers, only to have the female officer Lepinksy slam the window closed on him, and take his arm off. 😆 It would then be somehow magically reattached when he stumbles out later for the explosive tool shed spot. 😂🤣 Anyway such a shame this is gone now, it really inspired my love and appreciation of stunt work, comedy, and pro wrestling, back when I was 10 in 1999.😅 When I last visited in 2018 though, it had been replaced with a boring, bland stunt show with the cars spinning around, a ramp jump or two, and zero storyline or audience interaction. 😢 P.S: The heat from that fireball at the end from the exploding chopper, on a hot Queensland summer day, was absolutely insane. 🔥🥵 P.P.S: It's a shame this video doesn't include the crowd usher in police uniform who would direct you to your seat before the show. His antics with Asian tourists would probably be considered racist and inappropriate these days, but as a kid I absolutely adored it! ❤️😆 He would always find an Asian tourist family, offer to take a photo for them with their expensive late 90's camera, then switch the camera with a prop, and pretend to drop it on the concrete, on the track, or find some other humorous way to completly destroy it. 😂🤣 The poor tourists would always panic and freak out, till he pulled out their real camera and returned it to them to laughs and hugs from the tourists. It was usually the last gag he did before the female officer came out to address the audience and start the show. 😆 P.P.P.S: I heard they auctioned off these old Los Angeles style police cruisers a few years back. I definitely couldn't afford it, but I would have loved to purchase one of them. They don't make cars like that anymore. 😢

As far as I am aware, this particular theme park only use animals which were either raised within the park or rescued from the wild and were not able to be released. I don’t think they go and capture wild animals to put in their shows or prevent rehabilitation should that be a viable option. So living within the park makes the best of a difficult situation. They do seem to care for their needs and don’t force them to do shows if they are not up to it on the day.
