JeromyL Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 The pacific rim is just a motion base ride to an 8 min clip from the movie. Motion and water effects. Not bad, but not great eihher Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk OK. It may be a good break in between the rides to get some AC. Have you been on The Joker yet Jeromy? Nope. Unfortunately it went down the night before we came so. Didn't get to ride it. We still had fun though Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwf_777 Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 At the park right now, Joker has been open all morning. Good news. Both trains? Technically yes, but the green one is going through empty with riders only on the purple train. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moviemansig Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I take it the issue has been fixed now. Can this be confirmed? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrewoplis Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 I was at the park today as well and they did eventually run both trains WITH riders! Here's to hoping that it stays that way in the upcoming weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's to hoping that it stays that way in the upcoming weeks. Awwwww yiiiiisssssss! I certainly hope it stays, because I'll make a run to the park if it's been up for at least 3 days.

moviemansig Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Was Joker running today for anyone who was at the park? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crikett Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Anyone heard anything about yesterday and today regarding The Joker? I called yesterday, and was told it was down, and then the same thing this morning - though they added some additional information this morning, noting that what had kept breaking was now being replaced... though they had no ETA on when it would be open. So anyone heard anything else, or seen anything at the park? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JGuy Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Joker opened at 3:45 on Thursday w/ 1 train. Hopefully, once the other train is running, this whole ordeal will finally be over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Geek Mojo Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 I know that SFMM opens 10 minutes early for pass holders, but I'm curious if SFDK does to? If so, what line do you go to first? Superman or Joker? I believe Superman costs an extra fee on the pass to ride...I figure hit it first to avoid the extra fee it costs to ride this once. Can anyone give any info on the flash pass regarding the Joker? Is it only available on Platinum, extra fee, etc? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFDK's early entry is just to get in line for Medusa 5-10 minutes early, though it usually doesn't start accepting riders until the whole park opens so all you get is near the front of the line for the first train. Technically the whole plaza is open, but in my experience they wont let you line up for Kong or anything else before the park opens. Medusa allows you to wait at the top of the stairs.

ABW Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 (edited) It's running one train as of now. EDIT: Oh man, that one train operation was easily worth the wait. The Joker is running faster than ever and is clearly starting to break in. Have a great time, anyone who goes! Edited June 18, 2016 by ABW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moviemansig Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 When I called the park earlier today about that, I was told it's up-and-running. That's all the information we can provide to our guests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singemfrc Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Strongly considering popping in tomorrow morning, hope it's running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singemfrc Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Strongly considering popping in tomorrow morning, hope it's running. Scratch that. RMC today has ordered all coasters with RMC trains to be closed until further notice for a part recall. Too bad, Joker was just starting to get running again. I wonder if the parts giving Joker all this trouble for the past few weeks is the one that was recalled. (For source see the SFMM thread.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if the parts giving Joker all this trouble for the past few weeks is the one that was recalled. (For source see the SFMM thread.) This ride seems to to be becoming a bad luck charm. Every time it gets fixed, something else happens. The website doesn't list Joker as closed (Along with the other Six Flags rides running RMC trains) though, so either they didn't receive the news in time to update the website, or they don't believe it's an immediate danger.

Canobie Coaster Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 I just rode Twisted Colossus about a half hour ago, but before my ride they cycled 2 empty trains and had maintenence looking in the wheel area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Coaster Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Correction, it is closed now. Saw the fully empty queue from atop Goliath. I must have gotten the last ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
