Something BIG Coming to Six Flags Magic Mountain?!Six Flags Update This Week

[@lindasolis9909]

I'm old and can't ride a lot of these crazy coasters any longer. But I love watching videos about them, a way to still enjoy and save my joints. ❤😂

[@BD-zg7is]

linda you might really enjoy VR coasters! check out a meta quest! let me know if you have any questions

[@JettSpitzer]

Magic Mountain is so big that we got a zen ride on Batman, and still waited for an hour for X2, the difference between back and front of a park so big.

[@Grumpyskater]

You can buy a single shot now to skip any ride.

[@RR-fg2rl]

Golden bear theater was great saw a puppet show and spinal tap

[@ThemeParkObsessionDD]

So many shows have been there so it was a bummer to see it go, but I can see why they wanted to say goodbye to it.

[@RR-fg2rl]

@ThemeParkObsessionDD well it's in a famous scene of one of best rock this is spinal tap they head to a amusement park after one member quit and wife of another member manages the band and sees sign and says how many times I have to tell then it's spinal tap then puppet show

[@looperdehooper5870]

If it was just the Golden Bear theater, I would've said a B&M dive coaster....now with how much space this project is taking up, I'm thinking that giga may actually be a possibility.

[@ThemeParkObsessionDD]

It’s plausible but idk if they are going to spend that kind of money. Would be epic, but idk.

[@Grumpyskater]

@@ThemeParkObsessionDDI mean there isn’t much giga coasters in Cali and Six flags would be a perfect spot. Probably would get allot more people to come in too

[@kentsoliday763]

Batman was running super smooth for me too! I do wonder if it's just because it's running slower on these winter days.

[@ThemeParkObsessionDD]

Might be because of the cold. Whatever it is though it’s running great!

[@SpiderWaffle]

8:01 I really hope we get a Mack Extreme Spin here, like Ride to Happiness but better because of the terrain, trees, and views. It would be a win for everyone.

[@stephenn77]

I hope they don’t remove too many trees! Keep it a terrain coaster like Revolution!

[@Beastingcoasters]

Hey Stephenn77, MM is working hard to clean up the place and cut down less trees 🌲 they listen to our feedback. On this project it’s a safe bet that we need those trees they look nice up there. 😊

[@stephenn77]

@@Beastingcoasters They should plant more!!

[@bretboyle]

It's got to be a giga-coaster. My first visit to Magic Mountain was back in '75. Those trees have done a lot of growing since then. I hope they save them.

[@themeparklunatic1996]

Doubt it they seem to cut down every tree they can for the pass 10 years

[@Blimpee]

It would be nice to see if this was a giga coaster, because Magic Mountain is one of the most intense parks when it comes to roller coasters in US, and they could benefit from on of those

[@amusefusion74]

Knowing six flags, it’s probably just going to be a bigger seating area

[@TheBlueBunnyKen]

More like just flat concrete with no shade

[@Wolfpup748]

No if you truly know Six Flags especially Magic Mountain it’s going to be a coaster

[@amusefusion74]

@@Wolfpup748 bud, If they can’t even clean their bathrooms and clean up the areas, what in the great quan do you think they can Afford another ride. They already spent enough for the solar panels and taking down golden bear. The workers suck, concrete sucks, bathrooms suck, customer service sucks, food sucks, rides are always closed, sky tower is closed, vip lounge now has limited open times. Good luck 👍

[@Johnnyiswhere]

@@amusefusion74 that's NEVER stopped them before, ever.

[@Wolfpup748]

@@amusefusion74 Have you seriously never been there in the last month or two? Because they actually do clean their bathrooms not to mention they built was once new restroom over by the carousel and they have the money to afford another coaster and not to mention during the construction of the new bathroom was the construction of Wonder Woman and the paint job of Tatsu, so before you judge and assume things of Magic Mountain which is not true you need to stop and think. Also I know these things because I am a pass holder and I used to work at Magic Mountain, plus if it’s not a coaster you still need to understand that it could be a flat ride and you need to know that Magic Mountain has stepped up their game when it comes to guest safety and security and park cleanliness

[@the_ambassador_ert]

We need the old bear incorporated into whatever is built here!

[@AmericasCoasterNetwork]

Thanks for the shout-out! And great hanging out for a bit. It's crazy how much is going on in SoCal parks right now. I wouldn't be surprised if Knott's did something for 2025 as well.

[@avidcollector869]

Knott's is making a new Montezuma's, and revamping camp snoopy

[@bryankindred2902]

I actually think it could be the return of a much larger scale Log Jammer!

[@siriparanormal]

I heard it's a water coaster, or maybe an updated roaring rapids with a hill you go down, like the one in Florida, so they can demolish the old roaring rapids.

[@BD-zg7is]

Don't tease me! That was always our first ride every time we went. You get a little water on you to keep you cool and it's a good re-introduction to rides if you haven't been in a while. Then our next ride was Revolution! We could do both of those in 30 mins!! and then have the whole rest of the park to enjoy :) those were the days

[@kobecaldwell961]

Plz no I want a GIGGGGGAAAA

[@spikedwk]

I think its going to be a few smaller projects. Finishing full throttles layout, a pathway to either DC or the underground from the front, and some smaller rides like flats or a power splash.

[@tristianlane5476]

Check out Warner bros movie world in Australia. It’s just like six flags and I wanna know about that park

[@BD-zg7is]

batman was always SUPER smooth for us. it is a great ride, and getting a zen ride must have been AMAZING!!! great video thanks so much for sharing with us

[@Skys9]

please keep me updated im planning on going to magic mountain in april and x2 is my #1 want to go on in the whole world so it would be horrible for me if it wasnt open so do you think it would be back by then? also if there is somewhere I could look to see matinence info on it that would be great

[@Skys9]

also another question, will it be crowded during scream break? i dont care for it and want there to be as little people as possible

[@SadlySorrowful]

Have you been on supreme scream at knotts berry farm and if so, was it scary or not really?

[@ThemeParkObsessionDD]

It’s really fun but it can be pretty intimidating. But overall a good ride, one of my fav drops.

[@ulrichwarthen]

I'm betting on one of those new model Vekoma Tilt coasters built right in that spot. It'd fit in well with the theming of Full Throttle's area and would be the first terrain tilt coaster (as far as I know)

[@darrylellis4809]

If would go as far as to say it’s some type of intamin launch coaster similar to velocicoaster

[@ThemeParkObsessionDD]

That would be pretty amazing. I wouldn’t mind some more airtime in the park.

[@darrylellis4809]

@@ThemeParkObsessionDD Yes absolutely but after this coaster I hope SFMM invest in more flat rides of the high trill type

[@michaelangelograham7708]

Batman the ride, Tastu, Goliath X2, Twisted Colossus and Gold Rush are my favorite coasters of all time.

[@parkthrillz]

My fingers are cross for a return of the old Log Jammer 🤞🏾but we’ll definitely know something soon

[@seanlewis1148]

I'm with YOU...I MISS Log Jammer so soooo much, especially during the hot summer months. PLUS while Six Flags is at it, they can extend Full Throttle's track and have it intertwined with Log Jammer.

[@kyleobrien3383]

Nope!

[@abovethefirehouse]

I remember seeing two performers in the 70's as a child. Pat Boon and his daughter Debbie sang You light up my life and the 5th detention. KISS filmed some of their movie in that theater. I wish they kept the log jammer and Magic Pagoda.

[@erpsmaintenancecompany4600]

Possible a new water ride like the very first giga splash to ever be built and to go into production for the first time possible I think they will install the first ever intamin giga splash do to them taking out there only water coaster in the part the chute the chutes water coaster I think it's possible for a giga splash which for California will be really needed especially with the hot summers we truly have.

[@ThemeParkObsessionDD]

They have needed a new water ride for years so anything would be very welcome.

[@glasstechs]

I genuinely think it will be a large scale coaster; 1 of 3 options: 1. Giga (its been teased in the past as is something a lot of people have been asking for) 2. Dive (Six Flags has already proved they are interested in these with Dr. D) 3. Tilt coaster (Energylandia was supposedly going to get one, but canceled it and the coaster has apparently already been manufactured so another park may have picked it up)

[@sick345hemi8]

🤞🤞 I'm hoping for a GIGA! We don't have one on the west coast and I feel the park would really benefit for one in my opinion. The other 2 choices you mentioned, would work very well too 😁

[@gorbshal2598]

As much as I want this, I highly doubt any of those options especially the giga. Its a sizeable plot, bot not nearly big enough for a giga. The most likely option is a medium sized terrain based launched family coaster, similar to Big Bear Mountain at Dollywood. It's right next to the kids area so that would make alot of sense. Six Flags is trying to expand their family lineup, since families spend the most money. SFMM already has plenty of thrill coasters, so my theory is that there will be a gap for a year or two after this family coaster addition, and then a giga utilizing the land behind Viper.

[@bluemo7253]

They won’t do a giga. California is prone to earthquakes.

[@gorbshal2598]

@@bluemo7253 That's not that much of a factor. Sfmm has superman, which is alot taller than a giga, and has an even less stable structure.

[@tbx59]

This has the potential to be a massive project. Whatever it is is almost assuredly going through Full Throttle's loop. Imagine that hang with a new coaster underneath.

Hopefully a giga or a hyper spinner where golden bear used to be…

[@mfl8276]

The entrance to the old theater is going to be the new queue entrance, it's why it was saved and landscaped recently. The new coaster will go through the loop of Full Throttle, also why they removed the stage there. I just hope it's a giga.

Unpopular opinion...but the park could put in a massive multi launch family coaster like Big Bear at Dollywood. It would be a fine ride for everyone and a nice step up for the younger guests to go on after Bugs Bunny Land...they are kind of lacking on that next step up for younger visitors at the moment.

[@sethstrattan7380]

Hopefully it’s a new Looney tunes ride

[@ThemeParkObsessionDD]

Might be an expansion for Bugs Bunny World or a big coaster. Should know in the next few months when we see what else they clear.

[@LHollister1989]

I honestly don’t think we need to compete with Universal Studios when it comes to building yet another roller coaster, I think Six Flags has already earned that titled with big roller coaster. Both park is unique in its own way. Our biggest competitor was Cedar Point and now that both company is merging soon there’s no need to keep slamming roller coaster everywhere. Six Flags should really focus on enhancing the park experience. There are so many area of the park that needs improvements and I’m sure they can spend the money on what’s more important than keep putting roller coaster in places that don’t make sense. That’s just my opinion.

[@markimoofan1239]

yeah i saw the pics today and i was like Dylan! had a feeling you were going to upload this today :) for how big it looks i'm calling it to be a new coaster :) but an expiation to bugs bunny land would be cool to

Dylan, so the reason the black fence went down in front of that area of Johnny rockets is because the park has a park wide alcohol permit meaning you can officially walk and drink

[@Zrj19]

GIGAAAA🤞🤞🤞

[@ComposerConductor]

I HIGHLY DOUBT it will be a giga, if this is a coaster, despite the Twitter (X) tease.

[@Vincent-vz8ht]

I have 2 options for a roller coaster. 1. Mack Extreme Spinning (something like Time Traveler from Silver Dollar City because the layout uses the area of the terrian. Mack could easily make a custom layout for Magic Mountain.) 2. Giga (it could be a B&M giga or a intamin giga because of the amount of space there is.) To be honest, they could fit a flat ride no matter what they choose to do with the area.

[@gridley]

YT vlog FreskBaked today posted a vid with a thumbnail titled "Knott's Still Empty." As for the other SoCa park now owned by SF/Cedars, YT vlog TheDailyWoo last October posted about how its Fright Fest was sort of the same thing. The post-Covid economy, competition from Vegas & Orlando, negative publicity about LA/CA &, in particular, MM affected by the condition of things like Samurai Summit, etc, may be causing a perfect storm. Literally too. Last year's wet weather was cited by SF, Cedars & Disney as hurting attendance at its parks in SoCa.

[@OriginalJoe]

It’s going to be a new theater

[@Kodachrome40]

I remember when the Golden Bear Theater was the Dixie Cola Theater.

[@CloneH38]

Great update. I doubt it will be a giga coaster as so many have said before. I believe a giga coaster will go into the VIPER plot of land in a few years after its removed and fly up and around Roaring Rapids. As for the Golden Bear Theater land..I believe it could be one of the following.. □ A family friendly spinning coaster which will incorporate the hillside with added water effects, waterfall, splash elements that will replace what Tidal Wave had, but more elements..maybe even a dark tunnel through the hillside and back. □ A brand new indoor 4-D flat ride for families similar to the Justice League Battle for Metropolis attraction, but themed to Bugs Bunny and Friends and Looney Tunes, which take riders inside and outside the building structure an up and around the hillside for some thrills, drops and speed..and space for one big new Flat ride for both adults and children themed to Looney Tunes. □ Two new Flat rides.

[@psychopompinc.646]

I agree that it's going to be a ride to compete with Hollywood Drift. I would certainly love a traditional Giga, of course. I can't remember where they said it, but Six Flags used the word unique to describe what was coming. So that means it won't be a clone, which is good. And it gives a few other options as well. A Mack XTreme spinner would be direct competition for Hollywood Drift. A Tilt Coaster would certainly count as unique since Circuit Breaker would be the only other one in America. An S&S Axis Coaster would be super unique and having an Axis terrain coaster would be amazing. A water coaster would also be a great, unique and necessary addition to the park, especially since there are not many options for water rides at the park any more. The most unlikely unique coaster would be a TRex, but it would be welcome, especially if they went Giga with it. And hear me out here, what if Pistachio Park was also going to get a flat ride like a Zamperla NebulaZ? It would be even more fun if there was a coaster turn interacting with it.
