atem122 Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 ^No cause it still has to somewhat stay with the theme, which is why it will be called : Apocahawk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloneCaptain38 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 I was at Six Flags the other day, and took some pictures of Terminator: Salvation - The Ride from the Sky Tower with my 12x Zoom on my digital camera. I was there briefy, and didn't ride it. The full story can be found on my YouTube channel and video I filmed this day. -Tim The first drop and descent. I was waiting for a long time in zoom for the train to come, but never did, so I just snapped this photo, and left the Sky Tower with my sister and nephew. That's all the pictures I took of TS:TR on this day. THe train crosses over the pre-show building and heads back to the station. The crowd in the queue. Since I didn't ride it, my sister said it was about a 45 minute wait, and she rode it in the afternoon, this was a Thursday. A full-view of Terminator: Salvation - The Ride. They added like a jeep out front on the left at the entrance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metrock Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 ^ I knew I wasn't crazy when I was telling my friends that the Jeep at the entrance was new. They were telling me it had been there since opening day. Oh, and the station looks so nice now that they finished painting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WFChris Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 If you have not heard the 'Take The Tunnel' audio, it can be heard loud and clear on a recently added video on Six Flags Magic Mountains Facebook page. I think this link will work: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/SixFlagsMagicMountain?v=app_2392950137&viewas=0&ref=nf Chris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X2coasterfreak Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 ^ That is cool, I never heard it on the ride, well you can't really hear any audio while on it except for the lift and ending brakes. TAKE THE TUNNEL!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atem122 Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Back on media/kroq day, audio was full blast, I honestly think I prefer it deafeningly loud over so quite you can't really hear it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socalMAN123 Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 During ERT at Termination Day, I sat on Train 2 which was the train with no audio. I actually prefer the ride without audio, it seems a lot more aggressive when you hear all the noises of the ride. Anyone else agree with me? ---Brent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mechanic Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Having audio, or not, didn't make a huge difference to me. The ride is plenty good enough to stand on its own and the additional effects are just icing on the cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rawrtotheargh Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 At first I kept listening for take the tunnel on the dead mans turn. But then realized that its during the fly through. And since then now I can hear it. But it took me until like ride 5. But the audio is definitely too low. I haven't ridden it in a couple weeks though. It may be a little louder now.

atem122 Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 I think if the ride never had audio in the first place, it would still be amazing, but when you're used to the audio and you don't hear it, you feel like you're missing part of the experience...stupid train 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheeeeeeeeeee Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Hi, found this site and love it! Have spent far too much time here haha! I have a question -- I have read that the old-west Shooting Gallery at Magic Mountain was demolished to make way for the new Terminator Coaster. Does anyone know if the arcade was saved, perhaps to be moved to a new location, or is it just gone? That would be too bad, really, if it has been totally torn down. Yeah, it's old-school cheesy amusement park stuff but I have strong sentimental memories of the arcade and I bet a lot of other people do as well. If anyone has photos of videos of the Shooting Gallery they'd post, that would be super. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebl Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 ^ Shooting gallery/arcade = bye bye. Quite honestly, shooting galleries that don't use real pellets aren't any fun anyway. Besides, there's already quite enough games at SFMM to keep anyone busy. Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atem122 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 ^^You could also go to that paintball place by Goliath...or ride Terminator instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheeeeeeeeeee Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Well, what I miss is the "hokey factory" about the old west - saloon - gold rush town - shooting gallery. I went there for the first time back in the early 80s and have been back several times over the years. The last time I went (last summer) was with a family who had little kids with them. One of them, a little 3-yr-old, just went ape-p@@p for the shooting gallery, for whatever reason, maybe some deprivation in his childhood, who knows... Well, he wanted to spend the entire day there watching the animated figures and stuff. Maybe it was because so much of the rest of the park was just sensory overload for his young little brain... He got scared TO DEATH of Marvin the Martian..... okay, give him a break, he was only 3!! This family was planning to go there again this year. But when Dad found out the shooting gallery had been demolished, he felt it would be too traumatizing on little son so they went to another park instead.

HopeOfTheFuture Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 hi guys, my first post here. I'm a big Terminator from the Netherlands, and will go to Terminator Salvation: The Ride in September. I'm really excited, as this is one of the reasons I am going to the States. Do you have any good advices about the ride? I want to film a lot of it, because I'd like to make a little fandocumentary about the ride for 2 terminator sites: www.terminatorfiles.com and www.hopeofthefuture.net Do you know if it's possible to film a lot in the attraction? I'd like to film the pre-show videos as well so I can make a short montage for the documentary about the backstory of the ride. I also read people mentioning some special Terminator screen that's easy to miss. Can someone explain it to me? I have read the last 10 pages but can't find much about it, and I don't plan on reading the whol 280+ pages of this topic. Any advices/ideas are welcome. I hope it will be an awesome visit and it won't disappoint me, because I'm such a big Terminator fan and coming to the USA specially for this attraction.

cooksta77 Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 ^The terminator screen is in the 3rd and final preshow and it's in the right hand corner by the stairs to the station. Andrew "Hope I helped" Iorio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atem122 Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Would anyone know any of the music played right outside the first pre show building and in the stair case? Whenever I walk by those places in the queue the music seems to set the tone very well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
