SFMM Batman Begins Stunt Show

[wrs28330]

The Batman Begins Stunt Show at SFMM for it's second season on Sat. May 27th.

 

They have a new Tumbler (Batmobile).

 

They added a new stunt for Batman. He used to drop down upside down and pick up a bad guy, then swing around and drop into the orange sea box. Now before he does that, he travels on a zipline from behind house right, ending backstage, then doing the other two stunts like last year. It has been very well received by the audience.

^That's awesome. I wanna go check it out. How long is the show ?

[ElBlufer]

well, I only thought the show was OK last season, but I might check it out again this season, just to see a new and improved tumbler .

Did they turn the volume down yet? I remember that even the parts that were straight dialogue with no special effects or music were incredible, painfully loud.

Did they fix the jump. I remeber watching it and didnt see the bridge do down

I had heard that this stunt show was just a re-hash of the old Batman stunt show. Clearly, the person who told me this was wrong, I just might check it out now.

 

Batman Begins was a great movie, so I'll have to look for a video of the stunt show.

How long is the show?: Including Ducards "Preshow" it is 30 minutes in length.

 

Did they turn down the volume?: Were you sitting at the top of the theater? It is much louder at the top of the theater than at the bottom. But to answer the question: No, it is still the same volume for show as it was last year.

 

Did they fix the jump?: Half way through last season, they rebuilt the bridge so it no longer collapses.

 

I would not consider it a "re-hash". Yes, it does have the helicopter, and similar archetecture, but it is a completely different storyline, characters, effects. If you are in the park, you shouldn't miss it.

Here are some pics from the show.

Merch. now has a small hut at the north gate, by Riddler's revenge. They sell spray bottles, batman dolls, capes, autograph books.

I have the most-important question. Does the car have a cupholder to go with that a/c? lol

[wrs28330]

^good question!

[Gnome]

I wish that they would get rid of those crappy spark effects, and have batman read his lines out.... live.... like a normal person would. Also, if they made it flow a little better and a little less crappily.

 

Other than that its was a good show last season. Maybe they'll fix this up for the next season and I'll actually sit through it again.

Sorry to be an old grouch, but I haven't been to an SF stunt show anywhere that I regarded as better than dreadful. But since I'll be at SFMM later this week, maybe I'll give it a spin. At least I'll be able to sit down in the broiling sun for a while and cultivate heat stroke.

^Which day will you be there?

[AllenA07]

wrs28330, Do you work in the entertainment department at the park? I've got a hunch that we've met before.
