Deze week wordt Maurice vervangen door Michiel Veenstra van Disney-podcast D-Tales. Bobbejaanland heeft een wereldprimeur te pakken. Fury, de achtbaan met drie lanceringen die deze zomer moet openen, krijgt een verkiezingselement. Op de beugel zit een paneeltje waarin bezoekers kunnen kiezen of de rit vooruit of achteruit moet worden afgelegd. Wat vinden de heren van deze innovatie? Universal heeft een foto naar buiten gebracht van de animatronic van Hagrid die straks te zien is in zijn achtbaan in Universal’s Islands of Adventure, Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure. Thomas en Michiel speculeren er op los. En ze komen er achter wat het verschil is tussen een ‘animatronic’ en een ‘animated figure’. Er zijn blauwdrukken uitgelekt van de nieuwe Spider-Man-attractie die Disneyland Paris gaat openen. Mogen we hier wel over praten? En zo ja, wat vinden we ervan? Universal gaat een stuntshow opvoeren rond de Bourne-filmreeks, zeggen Amerikaanse bloggers op basis van geruchten. Zijn de Bourne films nog wel geschikt voor in een pretpark? Verder in deze aflevering: de pannenkoek met frikandel speciaal, de Lion King in het Circustheater en Dragon Challenge in Universal Orlando.

Jeff, Carrie and Mike review this week's news in the amusement industry. Obligatory excuses about why we haven't had a show in a month and a half. As quarterly results come in for amusement park companies, the results just keep getting better and better. So how is it that the economy is allegedly so terrible? How did Six Flags realize a 44% boost in profit? The national tone toward the economy is so negative. From the tea bag to the occupy movement, no one actually seems interested in innovating or doing anything. Carrie talks about perspective: This ain't the Great Depression. Where did hamburgers come from? Mike is a Disney Kool-Aid® drinking freak. Jeff describes his drive back across the country. And his new drill. That thing can screw. PETA sues SeaWorld for slavery. The whales are apparently making keychains 20 hours a day for sale in the gift shop. Legoland Florida opened, and Jeff wants to go next year. Mike will skip it because his kids are princess freaks. Jeff finally understands why Disney has so many parades. His 20-month-old loved the Halloween parade at Cedar Point. Does anyone know the total number of boat rides inside the gates of Disney World's four parks? The cast is disappointed about the no-duel rule of Dragon Challenge at Universal's Islands of Adventure. Despite the gruesome accident, we hate that it can't just be chalked up to "bad things happen." Carrie gives a shout out to the staff of Dorney Park for the VIP tour service. Several parks out east have their seasons cut short because of the crazy Nor'easter storm that dumped snow on them. You can get the latest headlines on CoasterBuzz from the Twitter.
