The Great Movie Ride will be closing officially August 13, 2017, to make way for Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway in Hollywood Studios.
Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway should be like nothing we have seen before. The attraction will be in “2 1/2 D” and guests will not need to wear 3D glasses!
If you’ve checked out Disney Channel lately you may have seen a series of Mickey Mouse shorts during commercials. This new ride is inspired by these cartoon shorts.
Mickey and Minnie will take you on an adventure through their cartoon world with a brand new original soundtrack made just for the ride.
There is no official release date at this time but, we will keep you updated as soon as a date is released.
What do you think of this Mickey and Minnie themed attraction?

I'm sad too. LOVED the GMR. I loved seeing if we would get the cowboy or the gangster. :)

I am so saddened that GMR is going away! It was one of my favorites in HS. Unfortunately, or next trip isn’t until December, so I’ll never get to ride this ride again….

NO NO NO!!! OMG, why do they keep closing things when they should expand! The GMR is a classic, my daughters LOVE it. How can i show them parts of the past great movies. We love Marry Poppins, Wizard of OZ, the Tarzan yell. This is by far one of the biggest mistakes they are making. We love this ride and can't believe they would remove it. Sad, Sad, day. I think i will get a black arm band with GMR on it and wear it. Luckily we will be there the first week of August to say goodbye. SMH P.S. if anyone knows of a petition anywhere i can sign let me know.
