robbalvey Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 ^ True Romance had SFMM's Viper in it. There are tons! Oddly enough I can't think of too many off the top of my head, (Happy Gilmore had PNE's Coaster in it) but there are lots more commericals with coasters! Who can name some of those? --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrowfanman Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 Cheetos twisted had Viper in it, and you can see X in the backround. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twister II Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 Our videos we watch in science, during the opening you can see a POV of Ninja in one of the windows. Its EyeWitness, damn annoying song.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoshiFan Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 It's a video but Kidsongs Ride The Rollercoaster was filmed at SFMM. It was filmed in 1990 and they showed Ninja, Colussus, Revolution, Metro, the log flume, river rapids, tidal wave (not sure of exact name), the bumper cars and a bunch of kiddy rides. Richie Rich has Iron Wolf from SFGAM (it was supposed to be in his backyard) Blank Check has some park in it but I can't recall which rides it was other than it was a wooden coaster so I don't know which park it is. A bunch of shows had episodes where they went to Disney World like Full House and Boy Meets World Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeezus Juice Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 I remember that AFLAC commercial with the duck on the PNE Coaster. Also that lame Sandler movie at SFMW. Also, for the record, I thought the movie 'Rollercoaster' was horrible. I don't get the ACE obsession with it. -Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twister II Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 ^It was Viper in Blank Check I think Karatie Kids was at Six Flags Magic Mountain, and a scene was filmed on the skytower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Clinksalot Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 Space Cowboys had SFMM's Viper in it as well. The opening of "Step by Step" had SFMM ... although it was supposedly on one of the great lakes ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SixFlagsTexas Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 ^It was Viper in Blank Check They actually filmed at SFFT for Blank Check. They rode on Rattler, Power Surge, Die Fledermaus (chair swings), and Dornroschen (Carousel). In the movie they called SFFT, "Cliffs Funland."

YoshiFan Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 Rattler must have been the wooden coaster I remember seeing then. It's weird how back when I saw the movie for the first time years ago I never even gave a second thought to what coaster or park it was at, now it seems interesting to learn what coasters and parks were used in these movies.

The challenge, trying to keep the most Kool-Aid in a pitcher while riding Colossus. I remember that episode. That was the first episode of Wild and Crazy Kids that I ever saw. It became one of my favorite shows but that was my favorite challenge out of them all the shows I saw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ahecht Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 What a coincidence, I just saw Space Cowboys on tv last night. I love the shots of Viper with the jet-fighter sound effects dubbed in. The greast thing is, they managed to actually make the ride look rougher than it really is! Also, don't forget that Magic Mountain showed up in Encino Man. Finally, here is a picture of Magic Mountain by the Sea: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philcoaster83 Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 James Bond rode a coaster in Vienna in Living Daylights Dirty Harry shot some bad men next to the Giant Dipper Santa Cruz in Sudden Impact And hasn't USH been featured in a few (hundred) films?

MagnumForce Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 Whoever asked about ACE's obsession with the film Roller Coaster. The group was founded by some of the extras who were riders on PKD's Rebel Yell. A meeting by those people later that year put ACE into excistence. Say what you will about ACE, but without that catalyst I doubt this site or any other would be here. It is just the current state of the Association that has killed it. There is a Sony PSP commerical out right now where someone is riding either PNE's Coaster or one of the Giant Dippers, I can't quite tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
