[GIVEAWAY] Limited Release GMR & UOE Shirts

I will miss the Great Movie Ride so much. What I will miss the most is the entrance. I love that it looks like you’re going onto a movie set.

I feel like I should disqualify myself from the giveaway as a mod.
But anyway, here goes with what I will miss the most.
The Great Movie Ride: pretty close to everything. The ride is iconic and represented everything that the old “MGM Studios” was about in my opinion. Specifically I think I’ll miss the start, when you slowly pull away and go under the marquee, just like you are on the red carpet at some great show. I will also miss the montage at the end so much. I just can’t stop smiling when I see all those put together, and I smiled all through it when watching it Saturday with you on the ride. It makes me want to watch all of them!
Universe of Energy: the break! Seriously, that is a huge plus to have that kind of break in the parks. I will miss Stupid Judy also! I was just telling my wife the other day that they should have Bill Nye, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Ellen do a Jeopardy special with all winnings going to charity. That would be so much fun to see! It also represented so much of what Future World was intended to be in my opinion. Learning while being entertained, “edutainment” I believe I’ve seen it referenced on here.

No disqualification. You are a supporter. You count!

@nascfan I’m sure no-one here questions Steve or Chelle’s integrity. I actually home you win.

Yeah, but I kind of feel like I “work at the radio station” like those folks are disqualified from their contests.
Administrators and moderators and their immediate families are not eligible for any prizes.

LOL! My husband was a country radio DJ for several years when we first met and married. I am familiar with those rules. Luckily, when it was concert tickets, backstage passes and such, we could usually get them for free anyway in addition to however many they were giving away. The absolute coolest person I ever met…. Charlie Daniels. Really such a fantastic guy!

ETA…Sorry! That was just a little off-topic, don’t ya think? Oops!

That’s cool though! And for some reason my mind went straight to, “how about some backstage passes?!”

I love Universe of Energy…Ellen still makes me smile every time I watch it. Her playful banter and little jokes make it for me. “Ha ha ha…I know…big piece of corn…” I have listened to it on d-cot who knows how many times. My hubby also said he’s going to miss it because it is his chance to take a nap in the air conditioning.

People always make fun of Ellen, but we have always enjoyed it and have only skipped it once or twice. We almost always ago. It is dated, yes, but still funny. And it is a good rest off of your feet but instead of sitting on a bench, you get to experience this! And the dinos are fun. I wish they would find a place to move them somewhere.

I will miss all the details in the scene recreations in GMR, especially the Munchkinland room.
As a child of the 80s, UOE always amazed me with the dinosaurs. I’ll miss them.

Thanks for the giveaway!

Honestly I loved all the costumes on display when you first went in and then just all the old film clips and music! The whole ride just gave you the feeling of old Hollywood!
