Has anyone else noticed that the audio has been playing up a lot lately. I went over the weekend and around some of the drops and inversions and some of the corners the audio was dropping out and going all crackly like an old radio. It happened on all three of my rides through the day so I doubt it would've just been the car i was in.

^^ I completely agree. I was there today also and waiting for green lantern and it took about an hour and a half to get from where the yellow monster thing is to the front of the line. Then after we got into the gates they sent three loads of fast track people through. It took us about 2 hours to get through a line that usually would take about 45 minutes. I would hate to see this system installed unless they charge people to use it in that case less people would use it making it less painful and slow.

I agree on the two train thing. I was there today and the line stayed at about an hour to an hour and a half all day. Even scooby doo's line up was shorter. I must say though the harnesses do come down quite hard on your legs towards the end but i suppose that will go away like it did on MDMC.

So is it now open for the whole day or still doing like 10 or so cycles then closing down like Green Lantern did?

So has anyone had the chance to ride yet? If so what's it like? Smooth/er?

I don't know if anyone has seen this yet but i just saw the new ad for arkham asylum on channel seven.

An update from movie worlds facebook http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150646499942182&set=a.452895337181.251091.106147617181&type=1&theater Looks like theres a new entrance all together on the far right

I was at dreamworld yesterday and it seems that they have moved the old spongebob ride to outside the front of the madagascar roller coaster on the concrete slab seen in this photo from the February update. http://www.parkz.com.au/photo_update/general/2012/02/0224-1_DreamWorks_Expe_DSCF8310.JPG

, ???????? Have I missed something?

Judging by this photo taken in the september parkz update it looks like they've had the trains for a while now. 0930-1_Green_Lantern_C_15.jpg

Can you please post some of the photos. The page isn't working for me. Thanx

I can see that too it kinda looks like a crashed army vehicle. Something like this maybe....

I meant after the main brake run when it turns the first corner instead of entering the second useless brake run that used to be used when they were running two trains, they could enter an unloading station.

I think if they change anything with the layout they should make the final brake run before you come into the final turn entering the station, an unloading station to make two train operations quicker. I doubt it though.

Was at movie world today and saw a lot (4) people working on the motor for the lift hill just about all day long. I don't know if this is important or just normal. But i thought i'd let u know.

Even on off season feburary and march aren't the only off peak months. I'm just saying that they shouldn't have them both down at the same time. It's not like there is no one who visits during these times

I agree with jacko on some points. I think it's pretty crap when they have two of there three main actual thrill rides closed down for maintenance at the same time. BS and SD aren't really 'thrill' thrill rides they're more 'family' thrill rides in my opinion. I don't think i will be going during that time

I think that superman has started to fade away into the background mainly just because of the rides position. GL is now the first ride you see as you enter the carpark where as it used to be superman. I honestly think that superman is the better and more original of the two. I reckon if you give it a year or so you won't feel the same way about GL.

^ I agree i have never been on a ride without audio and i have ridden a number of times (I'm quite tall as well). However unless you listen out for the audio you don't always notice that it's their. It kinda blends into the background a bit.

What about Tower Of Terror I and II? Sorry I had to.

More On-Ride footage

I think that they have done a great job at theming it when it comes to overall appearance but when it comes to the actual theming you experience during the ride it lacks. There is hardly a storyline it kind of just feels like a roller coaster and nothing more (Similar to Buzzsaw). Superman Escape has a story behind it and it feels like there is a point to the ride other than it just being a ride. It would have been nice if they could play a bit of a story through the on-ride speakers and maybe added a few effects etc to the ride itself. To me the giant logo isn't necessarily theming but just kind of looks cool.

While I was there today i saw a group of construction workers and architects taking photos and measurements of the rides entrance and queue area. I overheard them talking about what they were going to do and it sounded pretty drastic. They were talking of removing walls and adding extra rooms to the queue area. Whatever it's going to be it sounds like it's going to be a big difference from what it is now.

I saw today while riding the lethal weapon the giant green lantern logo/ symbol (the one seen on the map) getting its finishing touches been done on it. It looked to also be LED light powered as it consisted of a lot of bulbs. Should look very interesting when it's up. It was between the two sound stages that were used for Saw and Zombie Apocolypse.
