Mr. Starr Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 COUGh Bizarro side B COUGH Personally, I don't think that that would look very good, but that's just me. I mean, they would have to paint it blue or purple right? That would just look bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmicha Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 First thing that came to mind was a Bizarro makeover. But only to one side. Have the Bizarro side launch backwards (it isn't exactly a strong launch, so I'm more than positive this would be fine) and the Superman side launch forwards. That could be pretty interesting. And hey, maybe they will end up launching to full speed again (or maybe even faster which would be awesome). Well there's my completely made up idea of what's going to happen. Have fun with it. Should be interesting to see where this goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaMiTsPaT Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 That could be pretty awesome; especially the full speed part. I rode it last March and it was really underwhelming. I hope they can restore it to a ride that people want to queue for, and can draw a line to the summit. I don't even care about the Bizarro part that much, as long as it gets a good rehab and they change the speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djbrcace1234 Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 You know, you don't have to paint the track on one side...Just a car make over will do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy4Coasters! Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 For some reason all these ideas I'm hearing don't sound "Big" in my opinion so I'm going to give SFMM the benefit of the doubt and hope they blow me away for what they are planning for their 50th year anniversary. I honestly can't wait to see what they have in store for Superman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosscoe Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Ruperman is Red with Blue Supports, Bizarro is Purple with Blue Supports. Scooby is that you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooksta77 Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 There's the tear it down and replace it with an iSpeed type coaster idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cfc Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Maybe they're going to remove it and put Mr. Six's coaster up there instead. Now that would be truly Bizarro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyuk200523 Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Get rid of it and replace it with an Intamin Rocket Coaster that consistently goes at the same speed and makes it to the top? That would be a big improvement! Never actually ridden Superman and was really looking forward to it for its first few years of operation, but it doesn't look particularily special now!

PKI Jizzman Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Is a "Giant Drop" drop ride attatched to Superman out of the question? SFMM doesn't have a drop ride, right? That would be awesome to have that in the states like the do in Australia! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebl Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 ^ Superman's structure wasn't designed for a drop ride like Tower of Terror was, so don't look for one. Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrakenKing Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Hmm, maybe they're going to use the old Superman ride structure as supporting for a rocket coaster, similar to Kingda Ka. Hey, I can dream, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr. cockblock Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Superman will always have place in my heart as it was my first "big" coaster. Any improvement to the ride makes me very excited! Can't wait to see what they do with the ride! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cameron Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 ^^ Agreed - I actually quite like it. Maybe they're going to convert it to run on steam, as was talked (joked) about at WCB this year! Cameron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider-x Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 connect it over the top and run a tivoli train on it. One of them big SOB's.lol If they are going to tie CP with the number of coasters they might as well take thier height away from them too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougr Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Why don't they use the LIMs to make an actual launching coaster? It could be more precise and no risk of shredded cables Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XII Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Personally, I'd like to see a LIM Lifthill on Superman's Tower, similar to that on Mr. Freeze. That way, the cars will make it up to the top of the tower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerrykoala2112 Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Why can't they run both sides? Is it because they can't launch both sides at once....? (Sorry if that has been talked about a million times..) They could launch one side at time, unless that takes up too much power too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
