The Joker is a pendulum. It is average speed, it is fun, rerideable, it has a large capacity, and a long duration.
I like the swinging boat rides a lot. But I'.m not really a big fan of rides at theme parks that I can go on at the county fair. So I never really bother with this one anymore. Its fun if you like this type of ride but I would only do it if you have done all the others you want to do.
As a general fan of swinging ship rides, I almost always enjoy a ride on the Joker. Ive seen other pirate ship rides that swing higher and deliver more airtime, but this one is well-themed and makes a good family ride. Kids almost always seem to enjoy it because it delivers some thrills without being too scary for them. I therefore highly recommend the Joker to families with children. Id rate this a 6-7 for thrill seekers and a 9-10 for kids and families, so Ill average it out to an 8.
Update: After riding on 7/2/07, I will have to deduct some points from my original rating because the ride cycle was ridiculously short. It only performed one swing at full height, which is unacceptable for a pirate ship ride.
A themed swinging ship located very close to BTR. We had two very funny ride ops that day which increased the fun of this ride. They actually enjoyed their job which probably meant SF wrote them up later in the year. The ride itself was a little above average for this type with a pretty good cycle. Being a Batman fan I enjoyed the little extra theming this brought to that area.
