Restoring the Great Movie Ride

The Great Movie Ride is one of the most beloved rides in Disney’s Hollywood Studios but it is sadly going away for a Mickey themed ride called Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway. Get your last rides in by August 13th, 2017. What if you can’t get there before it closes but you want to ride it again so badly. Well, I have an idea where you can ride it as many times as you want. If you fly to Paris.

Walt Disney Studios Park is, in some people’s eyes, a disaster. It is located in Chessy, France inside the Disneyland Paris Resort. I don’t like to think of at as a disaster. I like to think of it as a Theme Park that’s attractions are all over the place. Sure, they have some great rides where you can’t find anywhere else including Crush’s Coaster or Lights, Motors, Action Stunt Show Spectacular. (Epcot is getting a clone of the Ratatouille ride). The problem with this park is that it barely has any rides.

Lets compare Walt Disney Studios Park to Tokyo Disney Sea. Walt Disney Studios Park has 10 rides. Tokyo Disney Sea has 20. That is double the amount in Tokyo Disney Sea. The Point is Walt Disney Studios Park is like the old Hollywood Studios with more shows and less rides. We can fix that little problem right now by inspiring the team over in Paris to make more rides in Walt Disney Studios Park by starting off with taking down the sorcerer’s hat just like they did with Hollywood Studios and replace it with the Great Movie Ride. They could expand from there to Cars Land or Star Wars Land and so on. Then Walt Disney Studios Park would be people’s 2nd destination after visiting Disneyland Paris.

You might be wondering where they would put this new attraction. Believe it or not it fits right in between Tower of Terror and cast member parking. The only sad thing about this expansion is that the Studio Tram Tour will be gone but that is kind of good so they could expand beyond that for future attractions.

Some of you are saying in your mind that the Great Movie Ride is outdated and I completely agree with that. In order to fix that it would be the same Track Layout in Disney’s Hollywood Studios but updated scenes like Star Wars or Muppets. It would have better animatronics and there would be no sponsor for the ride so they could mix different properties. I Hope you like my idea for restoring the Great Movie Ride in Walt Disney Studios Park.
