They said the new trains are purposely going to be heavier so it will be faster. (=more airtime[approve])

Also there is going to be new supports added to the track because of the weight.

^ Not going to be Goliath, but I think the colors are right, green and purple. Nice, I like.

Time for a big update in the world of S:ROS, or should we begin calling it LL:ROS?

Why LL you ask? Check out the huge forum discussion at www.gadv.com/forums, or read below for info to fill you in.

Lex Luther, a supervillain and the arch-enemy of Superman.
Lex Luther

Now, lets roll on over to clawshunindustries.com.
Check out what happens as you roll your mouse over the President of Clawshun's Head.
Image

They look an awful lot alike.

Now lets go onto the context on Clawshunindustries.com. Check out the Front page. Roll over the words in the welcome message. Certain words get crossed out and are replaced with other words. After finding all words, you get this message:
"Our corporate office is already abuzz over the proposal to SMEAR the Superman: Ride of Steel in Six Flags New England. Although we have fielded thousands of e-mails inquiring as to the specifics of our SCHEME, the truth of the matter is that the details are predominantly locked inside the head of THE DASHING LEX LUTHER- and there's no cracking that chestnut!"
Other things are mentioned such as a "..worthless share of stock.."

Now, the Message from the President has been turned into:
"Hello and thank you for taking an interest in LEXCORP Industries. On behalf of myself and LEX LUTHER MY MENTOR GUIDE AND UNPARRALLED GENIUS IN HIS OWN RIGHT, I would like to extend a warm LEXCORP welcome to new SUCKERS, employees and contractors who have partnered with us over the past two years during which I have been acting president.

We're growing in leaps and bounds and challenging the conventional wisdom of LAWFUL America at every turn. Don't turn your back on LEXCORP - we're a feisty bunch!"

Image

Check out Lex Luthers Colors.

So, whats the soundtrack going to be? Possibly a battle between Lex and Superman. With the fire, talked about fog banks, and new lights, I can;t wait for this ride! And on other reports, the ride has been listed as being almost a minute longer! What's that about? Possibly an extremely long lift hill ride with a story, or "preshow" on the actual ride. It will make the line longer, though.

Overall I think Six Flags is making an incredible move with this ride. I think it will be something incredible. Also with talk of them supporting the ride more and getting heavier trains, the ride should run faster and include some insane forces!

Six Flags really is hyping this ride a lot, and I hope it will be worth it, I may be making the 4 1/2 hour drive for the opening of this ride, it seems great so far!

I pray they wont name it that, lex luthor is not the name for a ride. It sounds like the name of a random person.

They aren't painting the supports green. They just recently painted them darker blue. You can see it in the pic above. I think they're going for a-

Does nobody think that is the fugliest shade of purple ever? It looks more faded than SROS' old red paint...wtf

I'm definitely not down with the possible red and purple track scheme...it really looks tacky. Hopefully they paint the whole thing purple, as even that ugly purple will look better than faded red and faded purple randomly throughout the ride.

http://cache.rcdb.com/pictures/picmax/p14953.jpg Yeah I think this looks decent in purple and blue, but that horrible shade of purple kills the chance for it to look even decent...then add the possibility of the track being half red and half purple and you have one UGLY color scheme.

Well, while on the topic of Bizarro, what do you think the ride could be called?

And why use a color that will require quite a few more coats of paint JUST to mask the primer color?

Come on. The owner of that website obviously has no clue about paint.

I was under the impression that primer came in white, black, and the awkward rusty red color.

Also a muted beige or basically anything and mostly light colored. The black would be for priming a wall with a really dark color. Otherwise, a light color is easily hidden.

My knowledge isnt great but my dads been in the carpentry business for 30 years and worked with some amazing painters.

That and really, Ive painted my share of houses, rooms, etc. Primer was almost always a gray color. I have seen the ones ck mentions though.

Austin, you missed a word that changes like LEXCORP.

well ugly purple and throw-up blue is all the rage right now. First Medusa, then S:RoS, next they're going repaint Riddler's Revenge the same to, and theres also a rumor they're going to open a new park completely themed to these two sexy colors...[:D]
Sometimes you gotta sacrifice a little bit of yourself to get the job done.

From the stock link-


"Thank you all sincerely for inflating the price of Clawshun Industries' stock portfolio. Unbeknownst to you, CI is a shadow corporation for my baby, LexCorps, and we have some very ambitious plans in store for the Superman: Ride of Steel at Six Flags New England. So, in order to move forward on our construction initiatives, I've cashed out your quarterly returns and pocketed the revenue (I can do that - after all, I own the company).

But, don't let that stop you from collecting your free share of stock below - it's the best way to stay informed of my exceedingly clever plans as they unfurl.

Ta-ta and be sure to visit us at ClawshunIndustries.com

Warmest Regards,
Lex Luthor "
