Magic Mountain's infamous coasters Flashback and Psyclone were both removed in 2007, with Psyclone being demolished in February and Flashback remained standing until December of that year, when it was finally scrapped.
As a result, Six Flags Magic Mountain no longer tied the record for the most roller coasters in a single park, relinquishing the record to Cedar Point – the park's total had never surpassed Cedar Point but had tied numerous times.
The park began focusing more attention on marketing with family-oriented values, and a new children's theme area, Thomas Town, was added in 2008.
The park renovated one its thrill rides, however. "
X" was closed on December 2, 2007 for its transformation into X² which featured new fourth-generation trains, a new paint job, and special effects that included pyrotechnics and audio.
It reopened on May 24, 2008.
In the same year, the park began work on the "Magic of the Mountain" museum at the top of its Sky Tower attraction that contained memorabilia throughout the park's history including old television commercials, park maps, models, and equipment saved from defunct rides.

Terminator Salvation: The Ride, a wooden roller coaster, opened on May 23, 2009.
It was built in the former location of Psyclone and featured tunnels, spraying mist, and special effects.
On January 9, 2011, the ride was renamed to Apocalypse and given an appropriate theme that reflects an "end of the world" scenario.
Later that year, Six Flags President and CEO Mark Shapiro said in a Los Angeles Times published interview that Magic Mountain had plans to install a new roller coaster for its 2010 season, and would add a new themed area for children in 2011 called Wiggles World.
Shapiro also stated that the adjacent Hurricane Harbor would receive an expansion.

On May 29, 2010, Mr. Six's Dance Coaster was scheduled to open but it was delayed until 2011 when it would open under a new theme.
On the same day, Mr. Six's Splash Island opened at the adjacent Hurricane Harbor water park.

On August 3, 2010, it was announced that Superman: The Escape would undergo a major redevelopment before the 2011 season.
On October 20, 2010, Six Flags Magic Mountain officially announced their full plans for 2011 after a video was leaked six days earlier.
In addition to opening Mr. Six's Dance Coaster under a new name and theme, Six Flags announced two other attractions.
In time for the 2011 season, Superman: The Escape was refurbished to Superman: Escape from Krypton and opened on March 19, 2011.
The coaser featured new backwards launching cars and a new color scheme.
The third and final announcement regards an entirely new thrill roller coaster.
The Green Lantern: First Flight opened on July 1, 2011 as Magic Mountain's eighteenth roller coaster which was an Intamin ZacSpin.
This roller coaster reclaimed the world record for the highest number of roller coasters at a single theme park.
It was later announced, on November 4, 2010, that the children's roller coaster would be called Road Runner Express and located in Bugs Bunny World.

In late 2010, Six Flags began the process of removing non-Warner Bros. licensed theming from attractions.
They terminated several licenses including Terminator and Thomas the Tank Engine.
Terminator Salvation: The Ride was renamed and rethemed into Apocalypse which re-opened on January 8, 2011.
Thomas Town was renamed and rethemed to Whistlestop Park in time for the 2011 season.

On January 18, 2011, the Los Angeles Times reported after considering a new theme based on DC Comics superhero sidekicks, the park opted for simplicity and renamed the Little Flash coaster to Road Runner Express.
Due to Green Lantern being placed in Gotham City Backlot, the area was re-themed into DC Universe.
In addition, Grinder Gearworks became "Wonder Woman: Lasso Of Truth" and Atom Smasher was renamed "The Flash: Speed Force".

In August 2011, several media sources reported that Six Flags New England would install Six Flags Magic Mountain's Déjà Vu for the park's 2012 season.
