Guest Editorial: The closure of The Great Movie Ride is the end of an era in Disney themeing
After 28 glorious years of operation, Disney is shuttering the doors of the attraction that once defined the beauty and spectacle of Disney-MGM Studios. As the park’s only remaining opening day attraction, The Great Movie Ride will perform its final run today, Aug. 13, 2017. The closure of The Great Movie Ride is saddening, not only because it’s a wonderful attraction that perfectly executes the theme of the park, but because its closure means the end of the theme the very park was built on for nearly 30 years.
