Heres the exact link, just check out the stores in Orleans Place. As for the queue house I hope it stays the same, which it will most likely be seeing as how they have not torn it down yet. It would look stupid puting that cappy Super Hero entrance like at SFOG and SFGADv right in the center of Orleans Place.

Or the store will be called After Flight. No, thats stupid. GO coaster dude.

Your so "emo" you make happy meals cry.

I Think its Kinda cool there using the Shockwave queue I just hope they do something with the Superman Themeing around the entrance and around the line.I really wish we would have gotten the first Superman cause It seems like they didnt really pay as much attention to the details on ours like they Did in Georgia.

Well when I was there for Pass Processing I saw two pillars that could be used to hold a sign like SFOG and SFGAdv. have in front of Shockwave's Queue house. So basically I think the sign will cover the majority of Shockwave's Queue house.

You look busted.

Maybe its just me, but who really cares if Superman uses Shockwave's queue house. Does it make any differnece at all? Also, on opening day about how long are lines for coasters (espcially Déjà Vu) and can anyone guess what Superman's wait will be?

I hear it is supposed to be empty on opening day, but I'm not completely sure. Im gonna go this year to find out for myself.

I wish the ride was farther back in the park so it would be easier to outrun people to the ride. It is so close you won't be able to run.

All who think Mean Streak needs a match taken to it say I.

So there wont be that huge white thing at the entrance for S:UF like the ones at SFGadv and SFOG? Just making sure cause now it wont look at cool and it wont stand out.

opening day is traditionally rather empty. lines for major rides shouldn't be in excess of 1 hour, though that doesn't count Superman and low capacity highly popular rides like Deja Vu.

if you want a stragety, get there early and head off to Supers first. if you get there before 10, they'll let you in the park and you can wait by the entrance to Orleans. then run with everyone else to Supers. if you're a little late, go to Deja Vu first as Supers will have a long line all day and DV will probably fluxuate all day long.

basic rule to riding DV-if the switch backs aren't open and the line isn't past the food stand, you'll be fine. wait out any breakdowns as it will likely re-open 15 min. later.

I really don't see how the absence of an ugly arse white sign will effect the ride. the theming is already out of place so what is everyone whining about? ya, something themed to Orleans would have been awesome, but deal with it and be happy that we're at least getting landscaping.

That S:UF sign looks stupid and ugly, I hope the Shock Wave queue is left alone.

Its not ugly. I like it. And how do we know for sure if the big white structure and sign wont be there. I thought it went in at the S:UF at SFGAdv no more than 2 weeks ago. I dont care what the que house looks like. As long as theres a nice entrance and not justa picture of superman. And does anyone know if there is gonna be a big superman sign on the ground. It just makes the ride look better. It's already out of place and doesnt belong but that doesnt mean they cant theme it on the outside. What's the theme if it doesnt have the nice que entrance and maybe the que house. Its like Batman. It would look dumb if it didnt have the whole gotham city que. And remeber Batman isnt located in a Gotham City themed area of the park or movie area so why cant they do they same for S:UF. (I just really like the sign, lol)

Well did any one go to the buyout that was today?

Carlo

Six Flags in Genral is very confusing if you think about it they have V2 located right across from Batman. V2 is the Clone of a Superman ultimate escape I think that they should have made V2 Superman Ultimate Escape and made that whole Yankee Harbor In to a DC Superhero Area and then this year take out shockwave like they did but make a Custom Flying Coaster or a Coustom or Clone Floorless.But I dont really care. Iam not complaning about SM:UF I cant wait to ride Its gonna be awesome.But thats just what I would have done.

ok, that was quite a dumb statement holydumb. tell me, when did they decide to take away shockwave? last year after the fight for the whizzer was over. also, when they were building v2, they had no idea if they were goinna get another coaster and if they did what it would be. how could they preplan it? they couldnt. ya, it would be a smart idea, but that would have to be planned years in advance. they dont do that often.

You dont have to be so harsh man. He was just stating something that he thought they could've done, not that they absolutely should have done it and that they are obviously the stupidest people for not doing so. There are better ways of expressing your opinions than tearing someone down by calling their ideas dumb. We all know that you dont like being called dumb either, so how about you lay off with the cheap dissing?

when something dumb is said, ya i do. i stated the obvious. i know it was his opinion and i commented how it WAS a good idea, but the park couldnt have done it, so it was kind of a dumb thing to say. parks dont plan those things out unless they are JUST being built. u can call me dumb if u want, but i know the truth.
