Which Superman: Ultimate Flight is better (theming, ride, etc), Six Flags Great America's? or Six Flags Over Georgia's?
I have to say SFOG's is better. It has better themeing. It has the foot chopper that really drives you crazy because you can't move your feet to avoid it.
It's green. It's blue. It's all over you! Enjoy your ride on Déjà Vu
While the spelling error in this post is rather amusing, though I myself would pencil in BTR: Which is better, as clearly SFOG's is clearly superior to SFMM's, though SFGAm can hold it's own along with SFGAdv (yep laying that sarcasm on pretty thick here)

Ours is better for 1 reason......Six Flags Great America has the only S:UT with an 8th row. which creates amazing and better G forces then 7th row. Great Adventure and all other S:UT only have 7 rows

To get back on topic, The S:UF at OG is built on terrain and has near misses with the ground and seems somewhat faster because of it. The Pretzel for the GAdv and GAm versions was modified, so it would be less intense. I've ridden all three and can say the OG one sticks out by far, but ours is number two.

How is ours #2? The one @ Gadv is identical. The terrain is the same too.
Please don't qoute the person n front of you, thanks. Anyway, the GAdv one has a bad crew (ours is nothing to get wild about, though). The trains stack, theirs is rougher than ours, and slower too. I witnessed 3 breakdowns in one day, the paint is choppier than ours, Should I go on?
I wouldn't say it's slower as I just rode it a few days ago. Yeah, the crew is kinda bad but they can't help it when people sit down and don't pull down their restraints.
I've been to SFOG, but because of weather I didn't get to go on SUF there. But I did wait in the queue, so I have some input.
I think that theirs is better with the theming and just the layout of everything. We were there in April, so they were running two trains, and one of the stations was being used. If one of the trains waited too long on the brake run, they would send it to the second station to unload, but then not load anyone into the train, because they didn't have a crew. So basically the line only moved about halfway over an hour, so we left.
I've been on the SUF at SFGADV, and there's is about the same as ours, only the queue is worse. The layout of the queue might have been nice, but the material that they used for the fencing was poor quality. They also had pointy ends for the fencing, to avoid people sitting on handrails.

I was just on Gadv's BTR and it seemed FASTER, not slower. There was nothing wrong with the crew either, they were as good as ours. It isnt rougher either. Have you even been on it Coasterdude?
And Sixflagsguy5, the fencing is crap. It was falling apart when I was there, they need to fix it up.

I know I'm posting the obvious, but I think that will help with this debate.
Even though all 3 are "identical" they are all different at the same time!
SFOG:
115' Tall with a 100' Drop
Speed isn't listed with RCDB
2:00 Duration
SFGAdv:
115' Tall with a 100' Drop
60 MPH
2:06 Ride Duration
SFGAm:
115' Tall with a 109' Drop
50 MPH
3:00 Ride Duration
(Info Based on RCDB.com)
Each coaster offers it's own thing. It seems that ours is the
slowest, yet gives the longest drop and a longer ride. Granted
I've only been on our S:UF, but I have seen that it has become
more rough through the few years we have had it.

The original one went on about how he'll do whatever he wants to just to piss coasterdude12-2 off because he finds it quite amusing.

RE: "edit" button
I am making a professional request to remove the edit button. I find it very annoying when people post something, then change what they've originally posted. In a regular conversation, you can't take back what you've said, so it should be in forums. Just like e-mail. Thank you for listening.
click his profile and click his posts you'll find it.
They ain't going to take it out the edit button twixmix just has to get mad at everyone now.
He's said this to me once.
Twixmix said
Please add the word "edit" to your post if it completely different from what you originally posted, so that people realize that a reply to the original no longer has nothing to do with the one above it.
