Yeah, I couldn't see much in the picture.

by **Demon_07** on March 7th, 2008, 11:01 pm

I'm sure we'll see more later

by **ttd rox** on March 7th, 2008, 11:02 pm

^Hoperfully!

You can't see much because the theater is blocking most of it. You can clearly see though that they are working on refacing the theater.

by **Demon_07** on March 7th, 2008, 11:06 pm

^Yeah, the blue part right?

by **Goku1910** on March 8th, 2008, 12:44 am

^ you guys actually seen it?

Is it as small as it looks in the renderings???

Random

I was referring to the video, many of the clips were from "Thank you For Smoking" starring Aaron Eckhart, who will also be appearing in The Dark Knight Movie, and the pre-show of the ride.

exactly, because top part of the facade that you can see from the pic is rounded and it wasnt like that before the re-facing, so from that point so far it looks like its going to be in the renderings....we'll see what happens at time progresses. Looking forward to it..

Well at least construction pics, the video, and info is now up on the site under TDK or on SFGAm home page. http://www.sixflags.com/greatAmerica/index.aspx

So i was looking online as to why they modeled the front of the building in that fashion and it says it's based off the building in the movie. What's wierd is that i have pictures of "Gotham National Bank" and "Gotham City Hall" and i was in two of the scenes (including the one where everyone is running around in a mob of officers from the preview)....and i have yet to see a connection to the building they chose. It's not something i care much about, but i was just curious as to why they picked the building they picked to model the front of the ride off of?

I'm surprised it's that close to Superman!!!

When were these pics taken??

Because they got a lot to do before opening day :roll:

by **ttd rox** on March 8th, 2008, 1:02 pm

I really hope it does open opening day! If it's not, I'll still be ok. :shock:

I can agree, I'm not too excited because it doesn't look too thrilling

Still, it'd be nice to ride something new, it's always most fun the first time you ride!!

by **ttd rox** on March 8th, 2008, 1:23 pm

^I'm just excited because it looks like it has awesome scenery!

by **CoasterWarriors** on March 8th, 2008, 1:34 pm

I'm excited for this ride since it is closer to my home by 6 hours compare to SFGAd and SFNE if they open this one on time.

It is about time that SFGAm post the contruction pictures to the public. Yes it was post here earlier about the construction pictures of where to find them but finally it is easy to find.

I'm looking forward to it. Hopefully I can go to the park this season. I only have one credit since I was there for only a short period of time and that ride was Batman: The Ride which I waited for 2 hours in the quene line. LOL. Anyway... Finger cross that I can go back this season and whore all the coaster and other rides as well.

I hope it is not all cardboard like throughout the ride. If it is, what a big rip off... The rendering of the ride itself look like cardboard from couple of the scence but some parts look great!

by **Demon_07** on March 8th, 2008, 2:09 pm

^I doubt that's the case and scenery makes good rides great rides.

by **ttd rox** on March 8th, 2008, 2:11 pm

^Exactly! The scnery in the que lines seem as good as the actual rides scenery if not better!

by **Demon_07** on March 8th, 2008, 2:12 pm

I wonder how they'll make it for fright fest?

by **ttd rox** on March 8th, 2008, 2:17 pm

Never thought about that!^ Now I'm excited for FF this year!

by **Demon_07** on March 8th, 2008, 2:21 pm

lol. I bet whatever it is, it'll be cool.

by **ttd rox** on March 8th, 2008, 2:57 pm

That would be awesome if they had something that would pop out at you! :lol:

by **Demon_07** on March 8th, 2008, 4:08 pm

Like the joker perhaps?

by **ttd rox** on March 8th, 2008, 4:29 pm

That would make sense to have the joker pop out. He could pop out of a giant jack in the box.

by **Demon_07** on March 8th, 2008, 4:30 pm

lol. That would be interesting. Or maybe in 7 sins cemetery, they could have one of the houses have a joker pop out when you get too close. lol

by **ttd rox** on March 8th, 2008, 4:33 pm

Yeah like have a motion sensor or something on the outside of TDK's entrance in Seven Sins Cemetary
