Twister II Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 I got back from the movies just a bit ago. During the pre-previews showing, they showed Six Flags new commercial! I've searched over the internet everywhere and can't seem to find it! Its a very very funny commercial. It starts off with two teens, one laying on a couch. He is holding a vacuum with half of a 1 liter soda bottle taped on the end. The other teen is throwing cheesy poofs at the vacuum trying to get them in. Then suddenly, a strange man appears. He is waring what seems to be a half ripped bed sheet, and a spear. The next shot is of the man and two teen boys running down the street. Again, its showing a teen girl, bored. She's standing in her kitchen opening and closing the blinds on a sliding door. Open, close, open, close. As she opens again, the mysterious man, and two teens boys are standing outside the door. The next shot, the 3 teens running down the street with the mysterious man. The last scene I remember is of 3 teenage girls, sitting in a room. One is adjusting the 'rabbit ears' on a T.V. One is sitting on a bed, pointing which way for the girl to adjust the 'rabbit ears'. The third is putting on eye makeup in a mirror. She turns the mirror and the mysterious man appears in the reflection. The scene continues to show gathering teens running down the street, until stopping at the entrance to Six Flags (its Great Adventure). Where Mr. Six is waiting. Mr. Six starts dancing, dancing, but the teens to not seem amused or even smile. The mysterious man point his spear at Mr. Six, screams, and him and the crowd of teenagers charges Mr. Six, trampling him like a stampede of elephants. That's all I remember, if anyone has a link to the video, post it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahecht Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 I saw this commercial in virginia advertising SFA, and apparently the guys over at Screamscape saw it advertising SFoG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdsmartdude911 Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 what movie was it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahecht Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 It wasn't an actual trailer before the movie. It was part of the commercials that AMC projects on the screen from a cheap computer projector before the lights go out and the real trailers begin. But, if you must know, it was "The Break-Up" (not the best date movie, I might add). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheStig Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Yeah I saw this as a preview for SFOG during Tokyo Drift. I though it was a pretty "WTF?" commercial, I mean the fat guy with a purple cape impales him with a blunt pole. I mean holy crap they trample an old guy!

BelizeIt Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Wow they actually trample Mr Six to Death?! I like this new leadership at Six Flags! I was burned out on Mr Six, not to mention that dam song they play during the commercials, which is forever burned into my skull. I guess the next movie I see will have to be at my local AMC, so that I can see the final demise of the Creepy Bald Guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twister II Posted June 20, 2006 Author Share Posted June 20, 2006 It was before Nacho Libra. And it wasn't an AMC theater either. It was a Cinemark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAcoaster Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Apparently they even run a "Making of" during the First Look commercials before the movie: Click to see stills! Filmed at SFGAdv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 That has to be one of the funniest ads, ever... by the look of the stills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hercules Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 I figured that was going to be the case when I heard the Mr. Six showed up to the park a few weeks ago. Damn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECZenith Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Wow, funny how the new management shows their disapproval of Mr. Six. Now if only they'd take the cardboard cutout Mr. Sixes off my Gerstlauer spinner... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easytoremember Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 I can't believe Mr. Six is stabbed in the heart by a blunt flag poll. Can they really do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrillrider15 Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 ^ I have no idea on that answer, but this sounds kind of like an odd commercial. I Mr. Six is awsome. My friends talk about how great Mr. Six is. So.... ya. Respect the elders. And that means no stabbing elders in the heart. I think they should have kept Mr. Six all this time. It's a bummer that he left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy T. Koepp Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Uhhh... ...Nothing says family friendly like running down an old person and possibly impaling him on a spear. Blunt or not. Is this the New Direction? My kids love Mr. Six and were traumatized by the commercial before Nacho Libre! I really question Shapiro's management decision on this one. It stinks of mistake like the decision to not allow re-admits to the park. Well, they said they wern't afraid to make them. Here's a big black hole of a mistake regarding their family friendly direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbilly Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 ^agreed, what the heck is this? He was what made six flag's image last season, and to do this, not a big fan of this, or really good for six flags to do, if you like mr. six or not.

sfmmFREAK Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 what....the....F*CK?!?!?!? this must be, hands down, the most disturbing commercial...EVER! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J man Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 So how does this commercial make people want to go to Six Flags? Does killing old people make people have the sudden urge to ride coasters? I don't get it. I guess I'll have to see the commercial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scruffy Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Don't worry Mr. Six will be back. I think he has one more commercial left. Also does anyone know where you can find this video on the web. My local AMC did not play this commerical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy T. Koepp Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 ^And lets hope Disney never hires the PR firm that concocted this hair brained advertising stunt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
