1. Hooray For Hollywood

Media Source

The Great Movie Ride has been one of Disney's Hollywood Studios classic rides. Since the ride first opened in 1989 at the Walt Disney World theme park, tourists have been given a sneak peak inside motion picture history. Disney style, of course!

2. Ride Of Your Life

The exterior of the ride is a replica of Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood. Once inside the ride, guests are taken through 12 classic scenes from cinema recreated by animatronic figures. You've never seen Singing in the Rain until you've seen a robot Gene Kelly sing Singing in the Rain!

3. The Last Of The Last

Media Source

The Great Movie Ride opened when Disney-MGM Studios (which Hollywood Studios was formerly known as) opened. It's been the last OG ride from the OG theme park to stay open. But that's about to change.

4. Out With The Old

Media Source

The Great Hollywood Ride closed on August 13th. Disney needs to make room for Mickey & Minnie's Runway Railway, so the Great Hollywood Ride has been sacrificed. Say goodbye to your childhoods!

5. See You Later!

It seems like sad news for those who loved the ride. But there might actually be some good news? So don't start crying your tears just yet! There's a silver lining!

6. Let's Go Shopping!

Media Source

Disney is selling limited edition T-shirts celebrating the closing of the Great Movie Ride. So now you can wear your nostalgia! It's a great way to pour one out for the Great Movie Ride.

7. Going Fast

Media Source

The T-shirts, like the Great Movie Ride, won't last forever. They're only available until August 17th. So if you love the Great Movie Ride, you've got to act fast!

8. Make Room For Mickey

Media Source

Mickey & Minnie's Runway Railway is expected to be a dark ride, similar to the Great Movie Ride. The ride will take guests into the world of the animated short. No word on if guests will scream out, "You're not the Great Movie Ride and you never will be!"

9. Face Forward

Media Source

Good news for those who love the iconic replica of an iconic structure. Disney has not announced any plans regarding the Grauman's Chinese Theatre facade. The facade is, of course, the first thing guests see when visiting Hollywood Studios.  We don't know if we'd be able to handle it if they changed it! Too much at once!

10. Fast And The Furious

Disney announced that the Great Movie Ride would be closing at the D23 Expo. The bombshell was dropped on July 25th. So if you think this happened so quickly, it's because it did.

11. A Star Is Born

Media Source

The Great Movie Ride was originally planned as the main attraction in a "showbiz" pavilion at the Epcot Center. However, the ride spawned an idea for an entire movie-themed park. And so, Disney-MGM Studios was born....

12. Hollywood, Florida

Media Source

The Great Movie Ride has been a staple of Disney's Florida compound, but there's no equivalent in their California complex. Even though Disneyland sits a short drive from where the movies are made, tourists are unable to see a Hollywood Disneyland. So if they want to see Hollywood, they have to go to actual Hollywood.

13. Get Your Fix

Now that the Great Movie Ride is closed, what are we supposed to do if we want to experience movie history? Read a book? Watch a film? Cuddle up in our Great Movie Ride T-shirt?
