Last time I was at Movie World which was in April, so long ago. SDSC was down at least two times a day, now I know the maintenance is later in the year. So much wasn't working when I was on it, the swords didn't move, the giant blades were stuck and the music wasn't working. As well as I have noticed each time I have gone the lasers in the upper area have become less exciting.
Although SDSC is one of the most popular rides, could it be possible MW are letting it decline and may use the show stage for the new ride? Considering that the Doomsday area is right next to it, it could all blend together.
