The Festhaus slides?

1) My condolences. Perhaps we can chip in on some therapy or something.

2) I believe the "slides" are from a supposed leak, which was transcribed in this post by @Zachary

Thanks, I wasn't sure if the actual complete slide show in question had been posted somewhere. Glad I wasn't just missing it.

@Zachary While it's marketing in a sense, this also might have been info for their advertising agencies to develop prospective names, logos, story lines, etc. Occasionally corporations will seek out numerous agencies to bid on full or portions of a campaign.

If all of this turns out to be a massive troll by SEAS, they easily have the best marketing team the world has ever seen.

 

[Gavin]

You give them too much credit.

What can I say, I’m a bit of an optimist.

I wish I knew the answer to this. It seems to me that a presentation containing specifics for attractions throughout the entire chain would only see the light of day in the corporate offices since, historically, there has been little to no visible coordination between the marketing departments at the various SEAS parks. That said, it's perfectly believable that SEAS sat down marketing teams from every park to talk about the next two years for the SEAS chain. I just don't know.

Well, the chain as a whole now has a whole new person steering their marketing department, with a record of doing things differently, so who knows now.

Ok, I've read every post in the last 122 pages, where are these slides that everyone is referencing? Did i miss something?

No one that has received the photos of the slides in question has released them to the public as far as I know.

Yet.

and I'm half expecting SEAS to just up and go "Here, this one's on the house."

It would be cool if this ride does what Taron does and have a ton of crossovers and interaction with the area. It’s a very good concept to fit as much as you can.

Was doing some research tonight and stumbled on something...

Could Project Madrid be an England expansion with a full size Big Ben?!?

No. Way too far for England and it’s confirmed a coaster.

 

[Icer]

Big Ben with overbanked turns would explain those footers...

According to www.distance.to, the distance from Big Ben to Madrid, the capital of Spain, is just 785 miles whereas the distance from Big Ben to Rome, the capital of Italy, is 892 miles. So Project Madrid really isn't "too far for England" when you consider that Banbury Cross would be thematically closer to Madrid than anything in the park's Italian area.

No I mean that the area Madrid is in isn’t anywhere near the England section of Busch Gardens.

 

[TrevorBondi]

Not sure I’m following your logic, max. What seems to be the issue with the new frontrunning rumor?

 

[dude205]

I think he has forgotten about when Ben Kingsley starred in Sexy Beast and had connections both with England and Spain. Coincidence, I think not. England has Big Ben and Spain has the city Madrid. Looks to me as if Busch is gonna pull of a Sexy Beast land including not only a full sized Big Ben, but also a random enough Spanish themed shuttle coaster around it.

Can we PLEASE stop with the jokes? They’re getting redundant and annoying now. This is a thread for discussing this project, not a meme board.

Feel like we are all just having a bit of fun whilst we wait for new major breakthroughs. The jokes aren't really hurting anything.

Let's just be glad we manage to stay on topic with some of them.

I'm pretty sure this has been addressed by the admin multiple times.

Was referring to this.

Jokes are allowed.

In fact, jokes are probably even slightly encouraged in a thread that has recycled the same ideas and discussions over and over again for the last month.
