Three notes: 1. The Stunt Show is closed till Summer '23. And when it will be open again, it will be a different show in a different setting. 2. There are already plans to refurbish Time Riders 3. Bandit will probably never get a RMC conversion, due to residents that live directly behind Bandit. They complain about the noise, so the town will not issue a building permit.

man these shots are so high quality they could easily pass as official media content from the park itself. great review as well, I'm glad to be a passholder for this park!

thank you so much, that means a lot!

I live a 1,5 hours drive from this park and been there only twice in my whole life. Once as a Warner Bros park which was awesome with lots of IP like 'wild wild west' and 'lethal weapon pursuit '. Wild Wild West was even better than when it got a overhaul and became 'bandit'. 'Lethal weapon pursuit' was a crazy duel coaster which was going in and out buildings and had a lot of special effects like crashing cars and explosions but got removed when Warner went away. The stuntshow was called 'Police Academy ' then with the storyline of the movies. I think your review is accurate it's all a bit of past glory.

So it's like Universal, but if Six Flags owned it. 😆

Not real. It’s very close to warners original vision. The stunt show it’s the same as the Warner Madrid one, layout it’s the same. So…

Bro this theme park was EVERYTHING! So many things happened but there's this one thing I cant get out of my head

3:20 It was originally themed to Bermuda Triangle and was rethemed recently

What a brilliant review!

So i am a relativly new Enthusiast and this is my closest park. My Girlfriend worked there for the season and i got my very First ever season pass, so this Park really grew on me this year. I was there every Weekend for most of the season:D Bandit and the SLC are pretty enjoyable in their best rows. The Park doesnt look that great in some areas (Given that Phantasialand, Toverland and Efteling are not even a 2 hour drive from there) but i Think it really adds to the Charme. Im glad Moviepark exists :D

The drop tower does have the tilt function but they stopped using it for some reason that I don't know. The water rides are really good at this park, I agree. Actually, there used to be another exceptional water ride where Movie Park Studio Tour is now. It was a dark water ride themed to Looney Tunes and later Ice Age. The Looney Tunes version was my favorite ride when I was a kid.

Is it really a stand-up drop tower or just a tower with really painful seats?

I agree Movie Park Germany is quite underrated. Some things are just awesome, like the SpongeBob Splash battle 4:20 Great Theme for a splash battle. They have nice theming in general and the Halloween Event is sick. The best Spot to be, is the last row on Star Trek, the twisting rollback is just outstanding. Last time i visited was in 2018 and back then some spots were quite... rough, old paint on the SLC, inconsistent theme with their rapid river, and in general a lack of love. But when I see the park in 2022/2023, it looks much improved. Great to see people with passion at work, who improve and take care.

I have always wanted to go the this park thanks for making this video

Great video!

I live in Germany but for some reason Movie Park never was a park I wanted to visit (might be because I‘m just 16 years old and haven’t been able to visit the majority of our parks). But I must have missed how great the theming of Operation Enterprise is. I’m a big Star Trek fan so this should be a great experience for me. Though if I had to choose I‘d prefer to go to Heidepark or Hansapark first, which I’ve sadly not been to yet.

Der Hansa Park ist meiner Meinung nach nochmal ne Schippe besser ;)

The ß in German is just pronounced as a double ‘s’ sound. So Schloß is Schloss (Castle).

7:00 sad that they removed crazy cops but I am looking forward for the new show they plan to do in the future Also high fall used to have tilting seat it is after all the same model as acrophobia but they don't tilt anymore for some reason

My food experience was that when ordering a draft beer they took out a half full cup that was standing in the fridge and resumed filling it …the line was empty

Accurate review. I enjoyed this park more than I thought I would. Some areas and layout are very similar to WB Movieworld in Australia indeed. They even have the stunt show too. Movie Park Studio Tour was my favourite ride too, and for some reason it had no line on a busy Saturday so did it about 6 times before I moved on to other rides. It must have been down and people didn't know it was back open.

even with a full que line, you probably only wait for 30 minutes. especially since corona, people stand further apart from each other and it looks completely filled, but goes very fast

Bandit is great fun, it makes me feel alive. One of the best woodies Ive ridden

I normally go about 3 times a week. As I live 3 stops away. Van Helsing Restaurant is great you get loads. And it's 20% off with the year pass. So I go. Get a massive plate of meat and take half home for hubby. Then I don't have to cook. It takes me 11 mins to get to Moviepark. And Phantasialand is not far. I go there about once a week.

I went to Movie Park Germany last spring and I really enjoyed it. The two water rides were certainly the best attractions but what I loved most about it was how friendly the staff were. I went on the last Star Trek ride of the day and they let us go round an extra three times! You would never get that in the UK or the US. I will admit that it's not the most attractive of parks. It's like it's trying to be Universal but doesn't have nearly the budget for it. But overall, my experience of Movie Park Germany was very enjoyable.

North Rhine Westfalia isn't the town, but the state/provence the park is located in. it's actually in Bottrop (Kirchellen).

bandit used to be themed to wild wild west and while the ride has always been very shaky its just so much fun idk always end up crying of laughter in that ride and the pier area was where lethal weapon was

Bandit was my absolute favorite!! The first time riding was just something else, i just started laughing and couldn't stop it just was so bad and honestly it hurt so much riding but welp i did it 3 times just because xD

The stunt show it’s the same as the Warner Madrid one. Only difference it’s that the Madrid one it’s based on police academy. The rest it’s basically the same.

I need an explanation about something. This park, along with Parque Warner Madrid in Spain, were both operated by Six Flags with the licensing to Warner Brothers properties in each park. Then Six Flags sold them both to Parques Reunidos and kept the Warner Brothers theming at Parque Warner Madrid but not here? What's up with that?

super weird yea like some of the og rides there where better with its wb theme so for them to be owned by the same company yet 1 remained to be wb and the other just not is super strange

Well i think in recent years the park is doing many things right. BUT they still have a long way to go to make the experience really great. I think my biggest problem with this place is based on two things: Both times i was there, the Operations were kind of terrible and they didnt even operate Star Trek with 2 Trains even though it had a 40min wait. The other HUGE problem of this place is: THE FOOD. Not only are many restaurants closed or closing very early, but the service and food itself is terrible. At least at the restaurants that i got to try out. For me the best place to eat there is SubWay... and i think that is not operated by the park itself. So i hope they will go and fix these problems in the next years, because as i said earlier, the park is currently doing many things right with updating old attractions (i hope the kids area is next)

I've been there. I'd Gravity Group Bandit and add a traditional dark ride either where Walking Dead is or where Time Bandits is Also Excalibur and Movie Park Studios are in different areas

So you want to remove a top 3 ride at this park which is also one of the most popular with van helsing factory and replace it?

Excalibur the ride is based off a fantastic John Borman film about King Arthur. It's from the early 80s.

Wow, A lot of the areas in this park are nearly identical to Movieworld in Aus, a couple of those areas actually look like our movieworld did 20 years ago!

Sometimes at parks not always if there’s a water ride and it looks a lot of fun and I haven’t ridden it I would most likely ride it

Would Efteling be a good comparison to this park? Good theming but ok rides?

@CoasterStudios

Жыл бұрын

Personally, I would not draw a comparison between the two, cause the parks have very different feels from each other.

Thing is, most of us know the park like it was, back in times when it was WB movie world. And the park itself never rehabilitated from the rebranding. Attractions were left lost, the money was missing to put into the park. Only nowadays some cool stuff is coming. Like Van Helsing’s factory (awesome dark ride rollercoaster), that movie park studios thing and the Star Trek rollercoaster. And finally they renovated the Bermuda Triangle. But so many attractions where left like they were, rebranded but with less potential and less beauty and stuff. One recognised that the park doesn’t have enough money or whatever to do something to make it as special as it was back in the days. I got a video of the conditions and stuff on my channel. Check it out, and you’re gonna see what I mean.

The park next to it is not called "Schlobeck", but "Schloss Beck", which means "Castle Beck" 😁

You should do a updated Efteling review, since your opinion has changed quite a lot.

I’m a pass holder since 2017 I love this it has such a great atmosphere and very cool rides. Bandit is good! The soundtracks here are also incredible. And comparing it to Phantasialand is extremely unfair, because Phantasialand is the best themed theme park in Europe and it’s much more expensive. The only thing that isn’t that good here is the food

Best example;: Excalibur: it used to be the Neverending Story. And the replaced the old animatronics and awesome scenes with just plastic figures. So cheap!! I want the WB MOVIE WORLD GERMANY back

Area51 used to be themed to Bermuda Triangle. i think they kept the theming and just changed the name tho0

where? they literally re-did those parts a few years ago, the only area that looks a little run down is the western town. rest of the park gets paintjobs on a regular.

I think the hate towards this park is mainly due to the bad takeover after warner bros left. All old attractions had to get a new theme and a lot of magic was lost with that. Area 51 used to be called the bermuda triangle, so that explains why it's a boat ride and why there's a volcano. Excalibur used to be themed to The Neverending Story. In my memory, that theming was absolutely amazing. After the takeover, they replaced the old themes very quickly. Some other great attractions have never reopened. And the new rides, in the Nickelodeon area, were not at the same level of theming as the rest of the park. The latest additions to the park do look a lot better again though! So hopefully they can get rid of their bad reputation.

Man, when I found out that Excalibur used to be themed to the never ending story I got so sad. I would have died with happiness if I were able to ride that version. Already watched a KZread upload of that version lol

Bandit is a CyCLONE It used to be less bumpy. Now it’s a pain to ride that thing.

Please don't mention Apocalypse from Drayton Manor still kind of getting over that removal, also I love Movie Park Germany Star Trek is a fantastic ride plus studio tour is fun

ngl dont know too much abt this park but I feel like not every bad wooden coaster should just be turned into an RMC. Eventually were just gonna have a ton of rmcs and it wont even be as special anymore. Not to mention the success that Vekoma and even Mack is starting to see lately so there can be much more variety in replacements for rides then say just an Rmc or B&M or even intamin

I was there today and I unfortunately have to agree. The rides were absolutely horrible but they have a lot of potential. People still enjoy them a lot ,which I can't say about myself. Movie Park tour is an exception. It was very smooth, well themed and I wish you could say that about the other rides. Even Star Trek was kind of a disappointment. I'd say it lacks speed. But the overall feeling and the less extreme rides were amazing. I loved it.

I have been to the park when Six Flags/Warner Brothers still owned it. Their wild mouse coaster was heavily themed to Tom and Jerry. The park has seen better days and they removed the best coaster of the park, Cop Car Chase sadly, a dualing Intamin looping coaster. You should have visited the park in the 90s/early 2000s to have the best experience.

I really liked Van Helsing. The Star Trek Mack launch coaster is one of my least favorite of the ride type.

Toverland or Movie park I cant deside 😅

I went there a few weeks ago and it was so bad

the nickland used to be way better when it still was wb themed also shame that they removed the lethal weapon rollercoaster that had cars as trains and they had this dualing dragons thing going on + most of the universal feeling things was because of wb

I will not stand for the Congo Falls slander at 2:41

How dare you skip Congo Falls at Kings Island. You get quality air time on that ride

I try to not be TOO anal about your pronunciations... you are definitely getting way better. But your pronunciation of Schloß Beck cracked me up. 'ẞ' is 'ss' in English. In fact, the 4 different letters in German - ä, ö, ü and ß - have alternate spellings that don't use the weird letter, I assume so those of us that don't have these letters on our typing devices can still spell things. (It really helps when googling!) For example, Düsseldorf can be spelled as Duesseldorf. So Schloß Beck is also Schloss Beck. A Schloß is a castle or palace, so it's a super-popular word in Germany. Like straße/street. I still don't understand why it's schloß and straße, but it's not Düßeldorf, but they have their reasons!

Sorry but some of the flat rides are not in trust-inspiring condition and Bandit is a ball-smasher- I felt Ill for one whole hour after my first and unique ride. The T-shape of the park is a mess… I came at the opening,10h and left at 19h (6pm) and couldn’t do all the rides due to downtimes …haven’t lost one minute to buy food or drinks all day…!

Such a shitty park in my opinion. Tbf I've not rode the new coaster but the wooden coaster there is awful and the SLC is the worst I've ever been on. Went a few years back and don't forsee myself visiting again any time soon.
