VERY INTERESTING

I've noticed lately that there are other theme parks in the world that use music, names, media and themes from Alton Towers. An interesting discovery has shown me to researching the new ride coming to Merlin's Gardaland Resort, called oblivion. This is Interesting as it uses the same name, colour scheme as oblivion at Alton Towers. It uses the smiler font and on the main Gardaland site, it uses the actual oblivion logo from Alton towers. It is also a dive coaster.

Yes because it's also owned by merlin, so they don't want to keep spending money on new fonts and graphics to be developed when they can use material they've already paid for the use and design of, it's very much like six flags in America they do the same, I.e batman rides :) it's nothing new, there's nothing wrong with it, the ride is in a completely different country and has been noticed before :)
