Thats not false advertising, They are just using stock footage to show a product, i.e. an amusement park.

99% of the G.P wouldnt know what SFMM or SFGadv is anyway.

They do that cause those are SF's "big" parks, though I believe SFGAm is much better than SFMM. But in the Kieran reign, it was obvious that SFMM was his number 1 park and SFGAdv was number 2. They also would use SFMM cause it is right in production, why would they fly all the way out to SFGAm to film a national campaign ad? It really isnt false advertisement, cause they are advertising SF as a chain, not the specific park, as long as SF owns a coaster that they show, it is fine.

:lol: Call SF Inc and ask recrommend it to them!

But i think then it would be illegal since its not from the same company.

It would be false advertising because it said Willa Ford @ sfgam when she was at sfmm.

well it worked for their advertising...now didn't it. I guess it really doesn't matter to the advertisers as long as the campaign works. Weird..... :?

They are advertising D Vu' and V2 in that commercial. Nothing else really matters. If they said that they had a rollercoaster, but there was no such rollercoaster at the park, then that would be false advertising. They have enough footage of the other rides in the park though such as the STT, and Shockwave.

I just have to argue about the train ford was in. Sorry, don't get mad. Did you notice when she screamed her voice echoed? If you didn't watch it again and you'll notice it, this means she couldn't have been on viper. I know it's station is closed off but it has a buch of windows and openings like SUF does.

It could have been like what they do with music videos. They film it seperately from what you hear. Her scream could have been recorded in a studio. Think how hard it would be to pick her voice out with everyone else in the station.

Those commercials were pretty cool but my favorite one was with the country singer and the catch phrase was "Six Flags Great America where fun runs wild." Does anyone remember this commercial? I hate the Mr. Six commercials and I hope the new commercials are similar to the old ones.

^YES!! That was my favorite too. That was from 1997, I remember because one of the line was "Are you ready for the Drop, Let's go, Six Flags. Where the fun will never stop, Let's go, Six Flags. Six Flags Great America, the fun runs wild." Did i mention I loved that song? :D

Sorry "Expert" But its not false advertising unlesss they specifically say that the ride they are showing will be there. Just because there are trees in a commercial for Pepsi, doesnt mean that you'll get some wood with your next soda!
