Rewatching the '24 fireworks and honestly I think it's not quite an accurate read to say it presents the Phalanx as the heroes. Frankly, how I saw it, the Phalanx were presented as incompetent lmao
#i think saying it presents them as heroes is like saying the smiler takeover presented the MoJ as good guys#they were in control of the narriative and took a central role but that doesnt mean they're heroes#i mean did you listen to how Dalton was talking? โto conquerโ okay buddy. okay. let's get you back to bed#the real hero was Nemmy which i like#alton towers#alton towers fireworks#fireworks 2024#phalanx alton towers#phalanx#phalanx expo#in my humble onion it was phalanx propaganda

This might be a wild reach but could it be a reference to the concept for SWs 1 and 2?
It seems they are turning Galactica into a missile

I miss him :(
#one of my biggest ATR flexes is that I've seen this character irl#Sub-Terra reopening was hype he just kinda appeared#and everyone around me went Oh My God It's The Fireworks Guy#he'll always be John Dalton to me idc what the Phalanx Expo said#the day the phalanx died for me was the day he got killed </3#remember how delusional everyone was because we never saw a body#its me I'm everyone I'm still not convinced hes dead#alton towers#Phalanx

Did y'all know that Rita is pretty much canonically queer. Is this like. Known about. Theres no heterosexual or cisgender explanation for the 2021 fireworks showing "girls girls girls" on the screen during her bit and her consistent association with queer culture and especially drag. One of her associated songs is Lady Gaga's Born This Way
#Alton Towers#Rita#i just think this should be known about!#seriously watch the fireworks#relevant show years for this are 2005/2021/2022 but there's mentions of her in 2013/2019/2018 too#for some things there is no cishet explanation

Woooo more coaster critters! Still have a backlog to post and some suggestions on instagram for more designs, but needed a bit of a break from them! I hope to start up again soon, I also plan to do some clean digital art of some of these soon! This line up of coaster critters are based off ofโฆ
Sonic Spinball/Spinball Whizzer at Alton Towers
Thunderlooper (Defunct) Alton Towers
Hex Alton Towers (technically not a coaster but a flat ride friend!)
Voltron Nevera Europa Park
F.L.Y Phantasialand
Fireworks, the Gardens, and Skyride at Towers (again not coasters but fight me!)
And last two designs are both Colossus at Thorpe Park

Went to Alton Towers yesterday for the last day of the season. Decided to give Oblivion (the ride in the video, assuming it shows up on dash even though it's not in the preview) another chance. Drop towers aren't usually my thing, but it helps that the ride continues after the drop, so I'm willing to give it another go in future. Hex had reopened too, so I gave that another go and didn't feel nearly as sick as last time, possibly because I knew what to expect. Did still make me a bit queasy though so I don't think I could do it more than once. Did Galactic in the dark, Wicker Man in the rain, and my beloved Smiler three times, but special shout-out has to go to the fireworks show, where, and I am not exaggerating here, they put on what I can only describe as a bootleg episode of Doctor Who to advertise Nemesis. Like, they had the CEO of Phalanx, a shadowy military-science company, come up on-stage and talk about the technology they've made from this alien creature, literally saying the words "Earth is defended", before staging an alien attack. I can only assume someone on the Towers staff is a Whovian, because all I could think about was Susan Twist's presentation in the recent finale. But with fireworks. It was great.

Fan theory that Phalanx could never actually defeat an alien because when any of those things get even remotely close to England The Doctor usually takes care of it.
