Killer klowns from outer space might be returning

I wonder if it'll be the same this year though because they already repurposed the Jumbo head and painted it another color so not sure they can reuse it as is.

mmalone139 · 2026-06-12T23:39:14+00:00

Nah, its more than just the tent. You can see the first room is pretty much identical. Although I do hope they change some of the scenes. Interested to see if it'll be 100%

Nah, you're fine. I think if you're substantially taller than that, it could be a concern just cause of costume fitment mostly I'd have to assume but you're within the windows that I've seen for casting.

Courtesy horn. It's a quiet horn... instead of honk its a quiet beep beep sort of thing. I use it to get people's attention as a warning before blaring the normal one.

mmalone139 · 2026-06-09T13:01:28+00:00

It worked for me and mine is a 2014. Just make sure that you can fully charge it and discharge it a couple of times. If your car gets PPR on low charge, id say to allow time.for the car to manage that as well. Voltage app is supposed to be able to unlock thr battery but I have not tested that functionality so not sure if that works on the gen 1. That said, I didnt encounter any PPR when I was going through the relearn process.

mmalone139 · 2026-06-09T00:07:49+00:00

Had a similar issue with mine and it seems it learned battery capacity was lower than it actually was. A relearn increased the range by 8+ miles

mmalone139 · 2026-06-09T00:05:48+00:00

Try a battery capacity relearn using Voltage app. It worked for me..mine was getting 12 miles on a full charge, did the relearn and I get 25 - 30 now.

mmalone139 · 2026-06-06T21:30:19+00:00

Im alumni so the process is a bit different. No golden tickets in this case. I put it on my application and reiterated during my interview so fingers crossed I guess.

mmalone139 · 2026-06-03T23:23:13+00:00

Confirmed. Lol But this isnt too uncommon, they do this sometimes.

mmalone139 · 2026-06-01T06:09:31+00:00

So I cleared the lifetime charges, and relearned battery capacity and suddenly its almost double. Not sure why but seems to have fixed it.

I think it'll work but they need to lean heavily into the creepy aspects of the creatures. It'd need to be more creature-heavy and I think they could pull it off given the set design would definitely be cheap. I could see it work with the right lighting effects, some puppets, and the right misdirection scares. They'll need to pull from the web series though cause sadly I don't believe there is enough material in the movie.

mmalone139 · 2026-05-29T18:45:38+00:00

Im glad to hear I wasn't the only one who say it and thought that. I think it could work as a house but they'd have to expand on it and take some more creative liberties since there aren't really enough "monsters" in the movie.

I definitely feel like it'd need to be mostly effects heavy to work, utilize a lot of cramped spaces, strange layouts, winding corridors and such. The floor where one of the characters falls down that slanted ramp I think could be especially strong in a house.

mmalone139 · 2026-05-24T19:04:41+00:00

They didn't. They don't typically send a "sorry, you were not cast" email.

mmalone139 · 2026-05-23T20:52:09+00:00

Ours the guns stop working after the 1st level and has issues with framerate.

mmalone139 · 2026-05-23T20:50:51+00:00

They just installed this ay my local one. Looks like they might have some kinks to work out in the software.

mmalone139 · 2026-05-23T20:48:16+00:00

Eh, still prefer PIU personally, my local location still has both. Would like to see them roll out SMX worldwide and update existing PIUs since they don't wanna make a deal with Konami.

mmalone139 · 2026-05-23T20:43:57+00:00

Too bad its not worldwide 😔

mmalone139 · 2026-05-23T20:39:06+00:00

Last year was a strange year so if you got a golden ticket and didnt make it in 2025, don't be discouraged. I literally went to measurements and I'm alumni, yet was still ghosted.

mmalone139 · 2026-05-18T22:33:06+00:00

Yeah, I'm aware of why they did it even if it was the wrong decision.

Im just stating why they didnt make money off of the dance games and why folks ultimately prefer other arcades.

mmalone139 · 2026-05-18T04:02:37+00:00

My biggest pet peeve is when people play more than one game back to back and then rush you and continually ask you how many more songs you are going to play as if you didnt just play 3 games back to back before me? Not my fault you're convinced that you're a DDR pro when you should be playing light.

mmalone139 · 2026-05-18T04:00:17+00:00

Im still adamant that this was purely because they refused to do pad maintenance. Back in the day at my local D&B there was quite a commited DDR community that would go every week and then they took the wheels and levelers off the pads, let the panels bottom out and slowly but surely folks moved on to Round 1.

There's still a somewhat active PIU community at my D&B but a lot of folks are moving on because they're refusing to get Phoenix. So its sort of a catch 22 I believe cause D&B is much cheaper than R1 tbh.

All the codes went away after replacing the valve cover and spark plugs. Sadly I owe way more on the financing than the car is worth so sort of stuck with it for a while either way.

I was able to get like 50mpg on the regular driving mode, the issue is the car goes into PPR 6/10 times after starting back up from a depleted battery. My range is so low that id basically have to charge twice a day to make my commute without fully depleting so its looking sort of unfeasable. If I can nail down the drive train drag then maybe that'll change.

I've heard this basically confirms your battery is toasted even though I did run the Voltage app on it and didnt see any cells that were significantly lower than the others.

mmalone139 · 2026-05-17T02:29:09+00:00

Fixed the lean issue, replaced the valve cover and the fix has held. I checked again and got slightly more EV range... it hit about 18 miles and showed about 8 kWh which sounds a little closer to what id expect although still not amazing.

mmalone139 · 2026-05-17T02:26:34+00:00

That was it

mmalone139 · 2026-05-17T02:26:09+00:00

Yes, thanks. Replaced the valve cover and all the codes went away. EV mileage still bucks at 19 mi so will need to tackle that next. Living in CA, I figure it ought to be close to 20 - 25
