Oh wow, the day has finally arrived - I rode Jungle Rush and visited Rivertown at Dreamworld! I hope you enjoy this special video. A lot more Rivertown content to come, so stay tuned!
They should sell the Motocoaster to Gumbuya World also. Get new trains and put it lower to the ground, give it a basic new theme and the locals will enjoy it. Problem has always been the trains and how stupidly far off the ground it is.
If they added near miss temple theming, got new trains, and bumped up the launch speed slightly, it could be great. They could theme it around a temple that has half collapsed, creating the elements that you dart around.
Oh hello I'm in your video, I rode before you! Lucky me, I wouldn't have been able to stay to wait for a technical issue. How good was the turntable! Once we were in there it made so much sense how the theming grew around it. What an amazing job they've done.
Hey! The technical issue really scared me, haha, I was like "this is typical!". Luckily it didn't take too long! The turntable was awesome, I've never seen anything like it on a Roller Coaster! Still getting my head around it haha. Dreamworld have done a fantastic job, I hope it does well for them.
Honestly, the Motocoaster doesn't fit in. Move the merchandise out of the store to the front of the park on a clearance rack. Rivertown is the future, and the site of the Motocoaster would be good for a jungle themed water ride.
Yeah, I like the car in there, but as a whole it didn't really impress me. Hopefully when / if they address Motocoaster, they'll fix the shop up a bit, too. and yeah, really is like a Vekoma version of what Intamin did for Gold Rush (ironic both have Rush in the title)
I can't wait to see what they do next after King Claw next year. I'd personally like to see a Dark Ride! One with the theming level as Jungle Rush would be amazing
@@holdenssboyunfortunately it's not open yet he went on a day when it soft opened which is pretty much a unannounced test offender the area that is not always open hopefully it will be open soon maybe this weekend 🎉
@@holdenssboyunfortunately it's not open yet he went during technical rehearsals which is where they train the staff and test attraction and sometimes they do a soft opening where people can come in and check the area out before it's opening but they don't usually announce soft openings it's closed now but may soft open again either way it should all be open very soon
@ThemeParkOgre I kinda wish they made the ride more adult friendly because of all that effort for the temple, and it ends up like the road runner at movie world.
TEMPLE! Rivertown looks amazing🥰🥰🥰. Can't wait to go back in January 18 for after dark event🤠. I watch yumyum channel, and then your video they both look so similar. Some of the shots look exactly the same. Are you yumyum, or are you related to him?
Temple! Thanks for watching! It really, really impressed me. I'm sure you'll have a great visit, and everything should be up and running for your visit! Yup, Yum and me are friends and visit the parks together.
It's worth the wait, it's a great area and Jungle Rush is awesome! At least it should be quieter for your visit around then. Any earlier and it would be packed!
Looks so good!! Just to confirm: you leave the turntable the same orientation as you enter, right? It doesn't switch you from going backwards to forwards and vice versa?
It depends! It's kind of hard to remember and to put in words to be honest, but you enter the turntable room twice. The first time you leave it facing the same way you entered, and the second time you enter the room facing the opposite direction.
I hope they replace motocoaster with a new for 2026 or 2027 water ride or roller coaster. Because now that jungle rush is open, the park has a kids coaster, THREE family coasters, and only two thrill coasters, so i hope a new thrill coaster is on the horizon
There's no official opening date yet, but I'd say likely Boxing Day or the 27th. If they do more soft openings, they have a better chance of happening in the afternoon.
Not officially open, this was a "soft opening", just for testing the ride / giving staff practice / ironing out tech issues, etc. It should officially open late December
Oh no, that sucks! It sure was wet, wasn't it? They don't usually do soft openings if the weather's awful. Hopefully they do another soft opening sooner than later
It is looking really good! Just 1 nicely themed area makes such a difference in any park. Also agree with the music thing...I HATE when parks just blast out generic pop music...its annoying! Go pay someone to record a few nice generic tracks for your park! So much better...
For sure! Hopefully this is the start of more theming like this at the parks. and yeah, the music! It was awesome actually hearing music that made you more immersed, instead of pop music taking you out. Sounded good too if it was original!
They reed to scrap Motor Coaster already. Give Intamin a call and get us either a record breaking single rail coaster or give us a Rivertown version of Velocicoaster.
The TEMPLE and queue look awasome so does MM but the shop.... Not so much hopefully it is just temp until they do something with Motocoaster.. the merch looks nice but it is all jungle rush themed not rivertown hopefully they get a wider range ( sorry this was so long).
Yeah, the shop wasn't the best, but the TEMPLE was awesome! Here's hoping they get more merch, as the current selection isn't amazing. Thanks for watching :D
The effects aren't all on yet I suspect. Don't want to end up with a Donkey Kong situation, the leaked POV had none of the effects turned out so it looked bad, then they put everything on and it looks amazing in the new Povs!
@@lizardboy2089 It's kind of hard to explain. It's basically like a moving lift hill that can send the train to three different circuits. I'm still getting my head around it to be honest, haha
Oh wow, the day has finally arrived - I rode Jungle Rush and visited Rivertown at Dreamworld! I hope you enjoy this special video. A lot more Rivertown content to come, so stay tuned!
Have a closer look at the playing cards on the workbench :)
@@GavinSeipelt Ooo, will do!
Imagine if they brought back the Paddle steamer
That'd be great! I still remember watching the entertainment on the steamer as a kid.
That would be awesome one day! It would fit perfectly
So impressed by the theming in the land and queue, what a great addition for Dreamworld!
I'm impressed! That whole area looks amazing. Also, TEMPLE!!
TEMPLE! It was awesome, great to have something like this on the Gold Coast again!
Jungle rush looks pretty amazing would love to ride it soon. Quality video bro, keep up the Good work.
Thank you! It's a great ride with some awesome theming. I think Dreamworld have a hit on their hands!
They should sell the Motocoaster to Gumbuya World also. Get new trains and put it lower to the ground, give it a basic new theme and the locals will enjoy it. Problem has always been the trains and how stupidly far off the ground it is.
That would be interesting to see. After what Gumbuya did with Buzzsaw, I'm sure they could work wonders on Motocoaster.
If they added near miss temple theming, got new trains, and bumped up the launch speed slightly, it could be great. They could theme it around a temple that has half collapsed, creating the elements that you dart around.
This looks so good! I’m gonna have to visit it in January after it officially opens! Also TEMPLE
TEMPLE! Thanks for watching! I hope you have a great visit, it's a great area and looks like it will be worth it!
Oh hello I'm in your video, I rode before you! Lucky me, I wouldn't have been able to stay to wait for a technical issue. How good was the turntable! Once we were in there it made so much sense how the theming grew around it. What an amazing job they've done.

Omg!! I’m actually in the video!! Im on Murrissippi Motors at the start of the vid!! (Final turn at the back of the tunnel)
That's awesome! Hope you have a fun time at the soft opening!
OMG. this is sick. cant wait for next time i go!!
It was awesome! I hope you have a great visit!
Looks so good the theming looks amazing temple
They did a fantastic job!
The TEMPLE is so cool
Loved it! Thanks for watching!
Looks awesome
A nice video....very interesting...about TEMPLE and stuff...so thank you!
Thanks for watching this TEMPLE video! 😁
The TEMPLE looks incredible!
Wasn't it? Thanks for watching :D
Can't wait to check out Dreamworld in April 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
Have a great time! Jungle Rush is well worth it
Honestly, the Motocoaster doesn't fit in. Move the merchandise out of the store to the front of the park on a clearance rack. Rivertown is the future, and the site of the Motocoaster would be good for a jungle themed water ride.
They definitely need to do something with Motocoaster. Greg (Dreamworld ceo) mentioned recently that it is on their radar.
Motocoaster. stage 2
Looks good! Too bad the shop is just a brown box though. The ride reminds me of Gold Rush at Drayton Manor, even though that is an Intamin
That shop facade 🤦♂️ and right at the entrance to the area!
Yeah, I like the car in there, but as a whole it didn't really impress me. Hopefully when / if they address Motocoaster, they'll fix the shop up a bit, too. and yeah, really is like a Vekoma version of what Intamin did for Gold Rush (ironic both have Rush in the title)
Hopefully they improve the shop a bit!
Wow it looks really good
I hope dreamworld will receive something huge, like another hyper-coaster to compete against movie world who knows
I can't wait to see what they do next after King Claw next year. I'd personally like to see a Dark Ride! One with the theming level as Jungle Rush would be amazing
It looks great ngl can't wait to ride it next year so excited wasnt open when I went this year
It's a great ride, worth the wait for sure! I hope you have a great visit when you eventually get there!
Good Job!
Omg I'm so excited I'm so jealous I hope it's open when I go the queue looks different from when you time traveled 🙀
hahahaha i remeber that
Wait so is it opened or no?

I guess I traveled to a different multi verse!
Wow! All this time, finally complete. Masterpiece.🌟
EDIT: is your back feeling better?
Thank you! It's a lot better, but not perfect yet. It did feel a bit sore after the second ride
@ThemeParkOgre I kinda wish they made the ride more adult friendly because of all that effort for the temple, and it ends up like the road runner at movie world.
@@ProfessorArmadillo I can understand that, but to be fair they've always advertised it as a family / experience coaster.
@@ThemeParkOgre True, I guess people have 50/50 feelings about this coaster.
TEMPLE! Rivertown looks amazing🥰🥰🥰. Can't wait to go back in January 18 for after dark event🤠. I watch yumyum channel, and then your video they both look so similar. Some of the shots look exactly the same. Are you yumyum, or are you related to him?

OMG SO JEALOUS! I've been waiting to ride this all year, but I won't be back in Brisbane until February.
It's worth the wait, it's a great area and Jungle Rush is awesome! At least it should be quieter for your visit around then. Any earlier and it would be packed!
That was awesome. Im heading there this friday and hope it might be running in some form. Around what time was this?
Best of luck! Soft openings at parks usually happen in the afternoon. I believe it opened around 3:30
Looks so good!! Just to confirm: you leave the turntable the same orientation as you enter, right? It doesn't switch you from going backwards to forwards and vice versa?
It depends! It's kind of hard to remember and to put in words to be honest, but you enter the turntable room twice. The first time you leave it facing the same way you entered, and the second time you enter the room facing the opposite direction.

Replace the old log flume with a modern version
It will be interesting to see what they do with the park!
Which date does Jungle Rush and Rivertown open to the public again?
There's no official opening date yet, but I'd say likely Boxing Day or the 27th. If they do more soft openings, they have a better chance of happening in the afternoon.
Is it actually officially open for people who go on jungle rush and the other ride
Not officially open, this was a "soft opening", just for testing the ride / giving staff practice / ironing out tech issues, etc. It should officially open late December
They’re on track to beat movie this reminds me of the theming of some of the us parks it’s great
Rivertown does seem better than Oz so far from a theming perspective. We should know in a few days hopefully!
so funny lol I’m omw to qld as I watch this
Have a great time!
Is motorcoaster open?
Yup! I talk about it and show some footage in this video
12:52 I have been spotted… very fun ride!
Hope you had a good day! We were all very lucky to ride it
@ very! Unfortunate that Mississippi motors weren’t open tho:(
@@Senjen_aviation yeah a shame, but it shouldn't be long!
@ obviously no major work on it yesterday with the storm. Rides shut 8 times during the day!
@@Senjen_aviation yikes!
Went there today and not only was it closed the whole day, I ended up stepping in three massive puddles and getting socked for nothing😢
Oh no, that sucks! It sure was wet, wasn't it? They don't usually do soft openings if the weather's awful. Hopefully they do another soft opening sooner than later
It is looking really good! Just 1 nicely themed area makes such a difference in any park. Also agree with the music thing...I HATE when parks just blast out generic pop music...its annoying! Go pay someone to record a few nice generic tracks for your park! So much better...

Would it be open today?
Perchance
I don't think so due to the wet weather. I'm sure it will soft open again at least once before official opening
Should have filmed what they going to do
Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean?
@ThemeParkOgre they can't do nothing but throw you out you should have film the coaster i know I would have give the people what they want
@@Ryanpadroth Do you mean a POV? I believe they're waiting for the ride to open properly, as it's not 100% complete yet
@ThemeParkOgre yes exactly pov why didn't you do that no harm in bending rules
Temple :D
Thanks for watching!
Wait it’s open I thought it would be open in the last month
Just soft opened, there's no official opening date yet, but probably after Christmas day
They reed to scrap Motor Coaster already. Give Intamin a call and get us either a record breaking single rail coaster or give us a Rivertown version of Velocicoaster.
I'm very interested to see what they'll do with it. I wonder if giving it new trains would work?
Movie world wizard of oz getting put to shame by river town on the themeing front wow jungle rush queue remind me of indiana jones from Disneyland
Rivertown is indeed better in almost every way, the difference is crazy
The TEMPLE and queue look awasome so does MM but the shop.... Not so much hopefully it is just temp until they do something with Motocoaster.. the merch looks nice but it is all jungle rush themed not rivertown hopefully they get a wider range ( sorry this was so long).
Yeah, the shop wasn't the best, but the TEMPLE was awesome! Here's hoping they get more merch, as the current selection isn't amazing. Thanks for watching :D
Hopefully they let a pov get out in the future for those that are on the other side of the globe . . .
The effects aren't all on yet I suspect. Don't want to end up with a Donkey Kong situation, the leaked POV had none of the effects turned out so it looked bad, then they put everything on and it looks amazing in the new Povs!
I have a feeling they'll release an official POV once it's complete. The turntable room did feel slightly unfinished, just like that Donkey Kong video
@@ThemeParkOgre Probably. But parks have released pov's when rides were unfinished. Look at Dorney park with iron menace.
@@ThemeParkOgre Also, how does the turntable room work?
@@lizardboy2089 It's kind of hard to explain. It's basically like a moving lift hill that can send the train to three different circuits. I'm still getting my head around it to be honest, haha
Long green lizard 😂😂 ummm, that’s a snake…
Nah, it's clearly a Lizard! 😉
i was there on that day lol
Did you get on Jungle Rush?
Looks great .., if only they opened our parks at night often in summer ..weekends?
I agree, more night openings are needed! Luckily, Dreamworld seem to be starting an "After Dark" event, with the first one being in January
ohhhhh m please post pov ride
They sadly didn't allow on ride filming. If they do (or if an official POV is released) I'll be sure to post it asap!
