until everything is 'warmed up', you run the risk of roll-back, or a less than optimal ride experience.

Yar, I thought to myself afterwards maybe it needed to be "warmed up" so to speak. It was a shame as we we could only be there until 12.45pm that day and as there seemed to be more people at the park, going for a re-ride later in the morning or just before we left would have meant a 45 minute plus wait. That first ride the previous week was just amazing, huge airtime everywhere, loved every second of it.

headed in today, Water was still not working on Superman. On the upside Scooby was looking good. Lasers and lights all going

Geez I hope this is an issue they actually fix and not just leave dead like so many other effects

I hope so too, The ride is in need of a bit of tlc. A fresh repaint wouldnt go astray either. Its looking very pink and not the "superman red" it is ment to be.

Perhaps they are not using the water in slow months of the year. Perhaps to save money. I was there in January and it was working all 3 days I went. Or, perhaps they ran into a complication during the maintenance because it seems likes it's after that that it hasn't worked.

Maybe something unexpected broke with that effect and its going to take a while to get the part into fix it?? My hope is with a re-fresh of the park, particularly on that side with the new DC area SE can get some love and yes a fresh coat of paint is needed.

Went to Movie World yesterday, and it seems like maybe they have put the water spray from the Superman tunnel into the queueing line for Green Lantern (in the noisy, enclosed, walk-through bit). It was cool to see it there, but smoke on Superman would still have kicked. Also, the sewerage splash from the Superman dark bit was still not working. They play the audio but no water rushes down. Must be saving $$$

Superman was steam, GL has meefog. Is it not plausible that something with the superman water dump broke and it's out for repair?? With the amount the ride would cost to run, turning off the dump to save money would not really make any sense. I spose another option is to close the entire ride until the water dump is fixed, that would be logical!

has anyone else seen this yet? >>

its the Superman Escape in minature.

A few minor changes, but overall, it's quite the mini-me.

^^ Very cute coaster, I believe the person that posted it on FB may be around here somewhere....
