Just thought some of you might enjoy this! I just uploaded a video I took back in October of 2014 of Twister resetting.
This will never NOT be cool to me. Man, I miss Twister

It's depressing to know that Twister's attraction isn't coming back, even if the 2024 sequel will be successful. Fallon Ride simply doesn't hold the candle to that previous attraction.
A hot take indeed.Hot take: Twister was bad and was made fun of all the time, including by Jack the Clown during HHN25. It's time was and is over. Fallon is better.
I think Jack knew Twister was on the way out and the semi-script called it out. Another inside ha ha like much of B&T.A hot take indeed.
Fallon, IMO, has an engaging and unique queue. That alone is worth entering the building. The ride? Meh. Maybe I see Twister as being more entertaining and more of a stand-out attraction in its design and execution - not necessarily categorically "good" compared to its in-park neighbors.

That first picture especially is incredible. Lovely finds!While we're here reminiscing about Twister I thought I'd share some photos I've collected. None of these are mine, but BTS pics of the attraction are rare so figured some of you maybe haven't seen these!

Yeah it really gives you a sense of the scale in that section of the soundstage. It's so much more shallow than I thought.That first picture especially is incredible. Lovely finds!

The cow(s) definitely evolved over the years! I remember at one point the cow had the Esmoo Dairy logo on it which really leaned into the ridiculousness, but eventually it changed to the more realistic looking cow, both of which were sold in the prop shop!Wait a minute, the cow was an animatronic? It always looked like a papier-mâché sculpture
I really miss this attraction though. Imo it was far more interesting than the Fallon ride and it'd still hold up today. Also, check the insane level of detail in that set! You really felt like you were outside when you walked into that room. The pre-show areas were also incredibly well themed and always gave such an eerie, nightmarish feeling with the wind blowing and the sirens blaring.
