My older siblings always talked about how great this ride was when it first opened, it was pitch black, foggy as hell, music was loud, lasers were bright as well, it was cold and the ride was fast, animatronics were brand new...it sounded like a great time
As someone who has a special place in their heart for the original ride, this isn't much of an upgrade but rather a disappointing refurbishment... The projections are so cheap...
yeah its bad and rip to some of aussies only animantronics in rides but.. at least we still have the ride and its still got the thrilling turns and earrape turnaround!
If they get rid of the screens, remove the Scrappy Doo part and bring back the old elevator voice line and put Scooby animatronics back throughout the ride it will be great again.
My it's changed a bit. I was obsessed with Scooby Doo when I was little. I went on this with my family when I was 7, it was a dream come true! The parts I loved were the animatronics of scooby, from what I recall, there was also a flying ghost that roared when the ride picked up speed. That scared me but I loved it. That was back in 2009. Most recently in 2016 we made the trip back, and it still hadn't changed even then. While it looks really cool now and this ride will hold a special place in my heart. It's really nothing compared to my first experience 💙
Do you know what it's looks good I love it so much it's looks like new ride using universal studios hollywood new ride 100th birthday party anniversary celebration party years 35th anniversary celebration party years
The new lighting is cool, but the new introduction/prelude? What were they thinking? Scooby-Doo has always been an extremely popular ride at Movie World - what was the point of changing it?
the first time i went on this was when i was 8 i cried after and i went to movie land a couple weeks ago (11 now) and i never went on scooby doo because i was to scared but now i saw this I WANNA GO ON IT MY SISTER TOLD ME I WAS GONNA REGRET NOT GOING ON IT SHE WAS RIGHT!
I wish the lady wasn’t screaming because I’m at it right now waiting in line, and I just finished being on super man so I wish she didn’t scream so I could be prepared
The likely reason they got rid of the animatronics was to reduce maintenance issues (namely, reducing cost), the coaster is pretty old these days -nearly 20 years old- and they’re probably reducing the cost so they can run it just a bit longer before replacing it. Unfortunately if a coaster doesn’t define the park they won’t fight to keep it, Superman Escape is likely safe for a long while -assuming maintenance doesn’t get out of control- because it’s pretty much come to define the park at its best.
They closed it down and gutted the inside castle walls around the track area because it didn't meet fire standards for the inspections that took place after the dreamworld raft accident. The new walls were also delayed.
i went on it at the beginning of 2018 and it was absolutely bull shit, they should've closed it can't believe you went a year later and it was the same.
I love the light show/rollercoaster room. I would love to go to Australia someday, and experience this. I just gotta avoid the deadly spiders and creatures in Australia as I make way to Movie World.
Stoked to see this existed! Then watched and... yeah screens suck bring back animatronics. This is also the same animation quality from a film thats 20 years old.
Okay. What would make it great for people on both sides. Keep the fast pace strobe lights room, get rid of the screens with the crappy cgi monsters, and keep in all the animatronics. That would make it perfect again.
lucky I got to ride the ride before the big change, the OG ride will always be a stand out and besides scrappy Doo is here for like 2 seconds and he dies so..wtf..
The purple and green lights kinda ruined it. The last time I went on it you could actually see the track pretty well but in a certain way that you couldn't see the flour making it look like an infinite hole.
I actually went on that ride once and i was with my family, when the ride started, i thought i was gonna be sick on the ride (but i didnt) and the roaring from the monsters hurt my eardrums :') and then we went up to the part where we went up and tilting sorta, my parents were making sounds like "woooahh haha" and i didnt mind until the backwards part when we went backwards it felt like gravity pushed me down, and what was worst that we went left and right and my parents were laughing while i was dead silent while i was covering my eyes from the blinding light until the ride was over and i said to my family "im not going on that ride again for a long time"
Animatronics > Projections...who's with us?
I hope the revert the changes. These screens will age quickly.
@@therealsploge They aged before they premiered.
OathOfTheThirteenth no idea how they were put in. Look like cheap Luna Park props.
@@OathOfTheThirteenth Amen!
Well I do agree that projections shouldn’t be used too much, not all projections in theme park attractions are bad you know
My older siblings always talked about how great this ride was when it first opened, it was pitch black, foggy as hell, music was loud, lasers were bright as well, it was cold and the ride was fast, animatronics were brand new...it sounded like a great time
I went in the mid 2000s as a young teen. It was so damn good, I used to get off and lineup again immediately after 😂
This ride and Bermuda Triangle at Sea World were bomb.
The smoke and lasers and theming were way better back then
Sometimes there was no smoke, so you couldn't see the laser beams. They must have run out. It was way better with the smoke.
As someone who has a special place in their heart for the original ride, this isn't much of an upgrade but rather a disappointing refurbishment... The projections are so cheap...
I was so sad when I found out they replaced the original one. Which was 5 minutes ago. I loved it.
U can’t even say anything you can’t see it in the vid it’s a great upgrade in my opinion
Danae Vickers This new one has cheap ass screens of characters that look retarded. #oldonewasbetter
Danae Vickers this looks terrible. Even in person.
absolutely horrible not realistic one bit!
How is the CGI worse than the original 2002 movie.
exactly! the original ride was better
It’s still pretty cool.
They definitely fucked it
yeah its bad and rip to some of aussies only animantronics in rides but.. at least we still have the ride and its still got the thrilling turns and earrape turnaround!
lol and it’s so dark to hide the fact
If they get rid of the screens, remove the Scrappy Doo part and bring back the old elevator voice line and put Scooby animatronics back throughout the ride it will be great again.
well.. that line they added was for a reason you know. mainly the "scrappy" part
Went on this a few months ago they did
Thats alot of stuff
-cries in just wants the old stuff back-
The main reason why I liked the original is because they had a laser show on in the main room instead of crappy spotlights
Anyone else seen this in the big lez show?
No but Im interested
Yes lad
Big lesbian? 😱😬
Whatayoutalkinabeat
Yup when I went w my older brother we were quoting it while on the ride XD
My it's changed a bit. I was obsessed with Scooby Doo when I was little. I went on this with my family when I was 7, it was a dream come true!

The new lighting is cool, but the new introduction/prelude? What were they thinking? Scooby-Doo has always been an extremely popular ride at Movie World - what was the point of changing it?
fire hazard
I feel like when I went on this it wasn’t as dark and I only went on this 1 week before this was filmed
I grew up watching Scooby-Doo and now even as an adult I enjoy watching an episode every so often.
i’ve always loved this ride so much since i was young. something about it. the new generation is sooo cool
0:14 My nose when I'm trying to sleep
Seeing the outside posters newly refurbished and not faded to all hell is such a surreal experience
Theres no way they just changed it, me waiting for 2 years to get back on this amazing ride and they changed it bruh.
I feel u last time i went there was in 2016 and I could not go coz it was close and I was so excited
SAME OMFF
This ride looks a lot like the Mummy Ride at universal in Hollywood except ours has a family even balance of animatronics to projections.
Aw man, they got rid of that doorway at the end that looks like a portal with the green light shining through fog
It was much better, because you couldn’t see the final drop coming. I loved riding with first-timers to see their reaction. 😂
Who else really wanted to see the kitchen room from the movie. This actually looks really fun
I still could remember I brought my grandmother on it🤣.Beautiful memories.
Did this ride today and omg the drop backwards was terrifying 😭
LMAO💀
i went on it 2 yrs ago and i was so scared i don't even remember the drop 😭😭
I went on this and I got LIED TO BY ONE OF THE WORKERS- I said “is this ride fast and scary”?” The dude said NO LOL-
I don't think it's fast or scary, I went on it when I was 4 and it was fine.
I think this one surprises a few people
@@cbears4400 Some of us just can't handle it. I know it would have scared me. I'm not one even for small coasters.
Same
I got lied to as well! I fainted and my mum thought i was going to have an heart attack.
They killed my favourite ride with cheap animations 😭
NOOOOOOO WHY WOULD THEY CHANGE IT THIS IS SO UPSETTING BRING BACK THE OLD RIDE :((((
some of the stuff in the queue and in the attractions will have been used in the film. I once saw a tour on the internet that they also said that
no joke i waited three hours for that ride
i waited 10 mins lol
Look how they massacred my boy
Has the actual track changed? When I went on it years ago I covered my face the entire time 😂
I don’t think the track changed
It was only the visuals that changed. Not the track
This is literally my favourite ride at movie world!! Every time I always gotta go on it at least twice
0:44 voice crack
1:43 random dog noise
2:04 aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
this is a lot better then it was in 2016 when i went on it
They "refurbished" it
they got rid of the lift:( i love everything ab this ride but the part where u go down backwards is scaryy
the first time i went on this was when i was 8 i cried after and i went to movie land a couple weeks ago (11 now) and i never went on scooby doo because i was to scared but now i saw this I WANNA GO ON IT MY SISTER TOLD ME I WAS GONNA REGRET NOT GOING ON IT SHE WAS RIGHT!
1:59 Oh god! Scrappy, what did they do to you?! That’s just… NO! JFC I can’t even!
usually i wait like 1 hour to get on the ride
I wish the lady wasn’t screaming because I’m at it right now waiting in line, and I just finished being on super man so
I wish she didn’t scream so I could be prepared
I whent on this ride my first time yesterday it scared the hell out of me I fell like I was going to fly off those sharp turns
Wow just a lot of extra effort and they turn an ordinary (basically) wild mouse into hell of an experience.
I cried on this ride 🥶
is the big spider in the disco room still there, its only worth going to movie land if it means i can see the big spider
That girl laughing made me laugh really hatd😂
Are you going to illusion at dreamworld? If so come and say hi, i have a couple of questions to ask.
Destination Dad n Daughter Certainly will be. If we spot you guys we’ll come say hi.
It changed a lot
1:23 I do love you at the first sight
1:53 *scrappy's back!* *it's been so long buddy!*
Even tho the cgi is bad it’s hands down one of my favourite rides. But also the sharp turns always give me serve anxiety like bruh.
Nah man those turns are sooo violent. I got bruises after that.
The likely reason they got rid of the animatronics was to reduce maintenance issues (namely, reducing cost), the coaster is pretty old these days -nearly 20 years old- and they’re probably reducing the cost so they can run it just a bit longer before replacing it.

True but this is the parks equal most popular ride. It’s theming is also pretty unique. Would hate to see it replaced with a bland roller coaster.
that explains why in 2019 there was nothing to see there, it was a ride with nothing to look at
They closed it down and gutted the inside castle walls around the track area because it didn't meet fire standards for the inspections that took place after the dreamworld raft accident. The new walls were also delayed.
i went on it at the beginning of 2018 and it was absolutely bull shit, they should've closed it can't believe you went a year later and it was the same.
I cant go on Scooby doo cause movie world is closed because of corona
I went on it before it’s reboot but I don’t remember it cause I was very little
the sets are better then the CGI its now just worse i miss the old one
I remember going on this when I was kid I went on it like 4-5 times it was so fun.
Change it back wtf.
Ashlee - 404 I know i hate it older version was better
I think the new version is better
Skye Carle good for you
@@skyecarle1672 I don't doubt you would. 🤦🏻♀️
@FridayGood small things amuse small minds i guess
I’m going to the gold coast tomorrow and I can’t wait to go to MW again!!
this ride is soooo so so fun and underrated but long wait lol
how do you film it? i thought u cant take cammeras on
I almost wish the photo gets taken right as you do the backwards drop instead of the swinging axes, would definitely make for a better photo 😂
I love the light show/rollercoaster room.
I would love to go to Australia someday, and experience this.
I just gotta avoid the deadly spiders and creatures in Australia as I make way to Movie World.
I live in AU’s and I’ve never seen a snake and 4 spiders, so it’s extremely rare to see one
@@brookeblack7820 not its not-
It’s crazy how Australia is stereotyped like this. If you travel through cities it’s like any other country
@@bookwormchic1528 Exactly like it's literally so safe and the people are way safer too 🤣
My whole life I’ve only seen like 1-3 snakes in au
I went there today and the line-up we had to wait in was 1 hour and 30 min
Hmm looks like it would be kinda fun ....I WOULD TRY IT !!
I wil read Ben on there and I got scared man I was under my jacket
its changed alot! last time i was there was like in 2014 or something
My brother cried after riding this
I've always wanted to go on this but I'm such a scaredy-cat
Been on the ride before 1 hour line, went a second time 3 years later 5 hour line
I went their yesterday’s it’s amazinggggggg
Can we get a SeaWorld update please
@Will Macca, I just saw a Sea World update on Destination Dad n Daughter. Might be worth a look.
Stoked to see this existed! Then watched and... yeah screens suck bring back animatronics. This is also the same animation quality from a film thats 20 years old.
I was 8 when the first time I went in this ride, I was extremely horrified lol
Haven't been on this one because I hate roller coasters but my family did so I'm watching this to see what it was like.
It's a really fun ride. I'd probably wouldnt recomend it as the first roller coaster but once get used to it it's really fun
I remember this. I went on this 5 years ago.
My sister was about 8 when she when on this ride thinking it was a kids one and she came out traumatised
i went on this in the dark 6th Jan 2020 and omg it was so fun! :)
what
Okay. What would make it great for people on both sides. Keep the fast pace strobe lights room, get rid of the screens with the crappy cgi monsters, and keep in all the animatronics. That would make it perfect again.
One of the rougher roller coasters I've been on
Hey man, great vid! Keep it up!
What happened to all the animatronics?
lucky I got to ride the ride before the big change, the OG ride will always be a stand out and besides scrappy Doo is here for like 2 seconds and he dies so..wtf..
Why are the spooky island demons buff it looks wrong
This is soooo fun I have been on it like 6 times
What the hell happened to this ride? I was on it about 4 years ago and it just isn’t the same...
Im just waiting for movie world to open again lol
i screamed like lez
my big sister went on it when she was 5 years old and got freaked out :)
there was so little people lol
The purple and green lights kinda ruined it. The last time I went on it you could actually see the track pretty well but in a certain way that you couldn't see the flour making it look like an infinite hole.
I couldn’t stop going on this at Movie world Lol
I went on this ride twice today
The projections don’t work
Is this exactly like the old generation
This looks like an indoor crazy mouse ride
In 2008 this ride was far better.
Yeah they’ve stuffed it up. I always like. The Scooby before the elevator and when it was nearly pitch black most of the ride.
adding all those screens and getting rid of the props was such a stupid decision. cool lighting tho
This was closed when I was there last year. HOPEFULLY I can ride it this year if I’m heading to the Gold Coast in October
I'm there for my birthday trip on the 23rd :)
kaylarose9012 I just left Queensland lol.
how did you get the permission to film?
wow they wrecked it
No FREAKIN WAY!! 😍
i think it would be cool without the projections
I actually went on that ride once and i was with my family, when the ride started, i thought i was gonna be sick on the ride (but i didnt) and the roaring from the monsters hurt my eardrums :')
and then we went up to the part where we went up and tilting sorta, my parents were making sounds like "woooahh haha"
and i didnt mind
until
the
backwards
part
when we went backwards it felt like gravity pushed me down, and what was worst that we went left and right and my parents were laughing while i was dead silent while i was covering my eyes from the blinding light until the ride was over and i said to my family
"im not going on that ride again for a long time"
I Cryed on that ride
Please tell me if it goes upside down NOW. I’m in the line to go on the ride and I’m scared help
No it doesn't. But I'm sure you know that by now. Did you enjoy the ride?
Same
