Rides with pre-shows/films

[marc]

I only really count pre shows that you have to do and not ones you only do when there is a queue. Therefore for me Spiderman etc are not counted.

preshows

Most Disney coasters and rides have them to add to the theming.

As for the coasters I have been on, several have had graphics and short videos in the queue, but the only legit "pre-show" has been the Batman the Dark Knight indoor clone at Six flags parks.

I forgot Test Track

Dinosaur at Animal Kingdom has an alright one, but I think film-wise Hex's is pretty great, which is strange because Duels is horrendous.

 

[bezzzzzer]

Duels is awesome what you on about?! Especially when it's VERY loud, that makes it even better.

I think T2:3D has the best pre-show I can think of. It really is stunning. ToT is pretty awesome too, suprised that hasn't already been said, and Mr Steven Tyler next door.

Just a quick note, worst ones? All special effect shows, Armagedon and Eartquake come to mind.

Men In Black has a pretty good one.

The Simpson's Ride has one, it's okay... plus it has random screens throughout the queue and stuff.

Can't think of any others that haven't been said.

Duel @ Alton Towers(News Reports)
Oblivion @ Alton Towers(tv's in queue line telling you your going to die)
Twilight Zone Tower Of Terror @ Disneyland Paris(Study room what happened to the hotel and on ride before you drop you go up two different levels. one looking in a mirror and then you disapear then you look down a long hallway and 5 ghosts appear then dissapear

Don't forget about the not cheesey whatsoever pre-show for the Haunting at Drayton!

 

[mouse]

There's one for oblivion at Alton towers that gets played in the queue line. The video kinda puts you off the actual ride

 

[Mysterious Sue]

Don't forget Hocus Pocus Hall lol

 

[gavin]

The Madhouse at Park Asterix (can't remember the name) has an excellent preshow. It's better than the actual ride to be fair - fountains and projections and bubbles and stuff.

 

[peep]

^Cesar something something. Yeah, those pre-shows are just plain epic.

 

[Nemesis Inferno]

Defi De Cesar <3

The first 5 minutes of this video is a pretty good short film made for Nemesis.

 

[Ollie]

They should really play that Nemesis video in the queue as it'd explain more about the ride as your queueing.

 

[Nemesis Inferno]

They'd have to update it first...

90s CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESE! I love that video, but it wouldn't add anything to Nemmie... Big Alien, Big Pit, Roller-Coaster... That's all it needs really...

Besides, Towers don't believe in story-driven rides...

I love that video, John Wardley is so enthusiastic explaining the layout.

It is a shame Alton don't show some of that video on the disused TV's in the queuelines really.
