coastercrazed49 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 The Hulks roar is just amazing. You can hear it clean across the park and when your up close you just get taken in by it noise and size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebl Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 So, they're upgrading this ride from Ghetto Scream! to Rockin' Scream! OK, good improvement. Yes sir, this park is on its way up! Â I was in the Valley earlier. Maybe I should have dropped by the park, but I wasn't really feeling up to it. It's going to be cool seeing all that old stuff in the Sky Tower Museum. I'll probably remember it from when it was new. Â Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haiderodes Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 That entrance sign could use just as much in the way of paint as the rest of the ride...looking rough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vedved82491 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 That entrance sign could use just as much in the way of paint as the rest of the ride...looking rough! Â I was thinking the same. I doubt it was always that odd shade of blue. A few years of brutal heat, rain, and ash clouds can take it's toll and a (somewhat cheap) entrance sign.

thrillgeek Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 I think it's a beter idea with Scream. As for X......umm I mean X2 I think an even beter idea would be speakers in the head rests like on California Screamin. Probably too late now to even consider adding them but thats what I would like to see!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrowfanman Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Great update Robb! Â Â Â For the record, I don't know if it's on account of the rain we've been having or not, but Scream was no longer playing music today. If only Rockin' Space Mountain died as quickly as Rockin' Scream did! Â Â Â -Jahan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebl Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 I have a feeling that with the rain, Rockin' Scream! would have fizzled out---literally. Â Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Stratosphere Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Speaking of the B&M Roar I really like it! It freaked me out at Knott's when I walked up and they were testing Silver Bullet, its weird how quiet that ride is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably too late now to even consider adding them but thats what I would like to see!! While that may have been easier, that would've added precious weight to the trains, one of the biggest driving forces behind the changes they're making. I agree it would solve problems about being able to hear the music, but it just wouldn't be practical to add all that weight after working so hard to minimize the weight of the cars.

PURE Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 The Hulks roar is just amazing. You can hear it clean across the park and when your up close you just get taken in by it noise and size. Â I'd say from what I remember, Scream!'s roar is about as loud as The Hulk's. Â That Scream sign does need to be replaced. Or taken down. Or something...jeez. Thing is, they've been looking like that for 4 years now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECZenith Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 I think adding sound is a good idea, I'm really impressed with all the new details of X2, they had me at 'tunnels' already! Can't wait to see X sporting red and black in person at West Coast Bash, just didn't look right in pink IMO. Keep up the good work MM!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is, they've been looking like that for 4 years now! Â They should have known that thing was gonna fade from the start! You can't paint things bright blue and purple and hope its gonna stay that way especially with all the sun that little area gets. The faces on there look "printed" I wonder if they still have the artwork for them? Perhaps they should try something a little more simple?

Wes Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Maybe Scream should get the X2 treatment. Landscape, throw in a tunnel, add those speakers, and make entrance area and queue not feel like a rip off of the ghetto fair. Scream 2:Scream Louder?

PURE Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 ^I like it! Â It allows the coaster to have a new upgrade feeling, with the same Scream! tacky-ness its known for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Â Haha thats a good name! yea if MM re-did Scream i would get on it more often. But i like scream because its really smooth But it would be so awsome if they added tunnels and sound on the trains. Also they should re-model the waiting line. i'm a dumbo so i get poked with the thorn bushes that surround you!. Good Luck With The Future MM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AllenA07 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 There are thorn bushes around Scream to get poked on? Other then needing some landscaping I've always liked Scream. Nowhere near my favorite rides in the park (I've always found the floorless concept to be a gimmick) but a decent coaster none-the-less. The only thing I'll say about Scream is that it always seemed like a very rushed coaster, something the park decided on last minute. I'll be interested to see if the music idea transfers over to X, I think with the proper music (assuming it works) it would be a cool effect. Â Just please no more techno music on roller coasters!

southpuddle Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Techno works well for coasters, despite your personal musical preferences. What do you want? Some rap? Country? Metal? Trust me, you wouldn't hear the lyrics anyway, unless the trains are equipped with an in-train sound system, ala Rock 'n' Rollercoaster or California Screamin'. You would hear the beat - the bass... and what you have left is techno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vedved82491 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I think Techno has somewhat of an intimidating sound at times. It works well with intimidating coasters and all. I'd say they're a perfect match. The music just flows with the acrobatic movements of the coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trcg721 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Sunday Rocks! Summer Concert Series has a great entertainment line-up. Announcing Raven Simoné on August 10, 2008.  It looks like they already started to announce the summer line for their Sunday Rocks! Summer Concert Series.
