After being vacated from World of Motion in 1996, this Sea Serpent took a hike over to Disney's California Adventure! They could be found in the Hollywood Pictures Backlot and later next to the Backlot Stage, before being removed in 2010. They have sadly not been seen since.

Great Movie Ride: Hollywood Studios/MGM Studios (1989-2017)

Propaganda:

"This ride was SO fun! It was such a great dark ride; all the sets were so detailed and evocative of their movies, especially Alien. When that xenomorph came down, I was always startled, even as an adult, and it flat-out scared me as a kid. Spooky! And the little plot the ride had with the ride being hijacked by a gangster or a western outlaw who then fell victim to their own greed was absolutely delightful. It was such a great show of sets and animatronics, and I miss it so much."

"I genuinely loved this attraction as a weird autistic kid who couldn't really do anything else in Hollywood Studios and I'm really sad to learn that it's gone. I loved the atmosphere and the slow-moving ride vehicles and from what I understand it took a lot of skill to be a host on that ride."

"The animatronics were great for their times. I loved the two different versions of the ride (gangster/Wild West). The cast members were so much fun during the ride. A great tribute to great movies. The rotating props in the line queue was neat too."

"The best 22 minutes in AC on a hot Floridian day that will forever be missed."

"IT WAS SO IMMERSIVE!!! And the guides were apart of the ride and there were 2 different path at one point, the Western or Gangster, and hiding in the animatronics would be a real person and they would take over the ride from the host, then in a later scene in Indiana Jones part, the host would trick them into a "curse" and take the ride back! (just watch the video xD)THEN you went through freaking Oz! There was no ride like it before or after and I will never get over them getting rid of it!"

EPCOT’s Test Track is Temporarily Closing for Reimagining at Walt Disney World

Test Track presented by Chevrolet at EPCOT will close temporarily beginning June 17 as the attraction enters a reimagining phase. So far, only limited details have been revealed, but Disney did release a rendering of the reimagined attraction. Imagineers and Chevrolet are reaching back into history for inspiration — from the original World of Motion ride that once occupied the space — and…

These chickens previously found in the queue for "The Barnstormer at Goofy's Wiseacre Farm", were the only realistic looking figures in all of Mickey's Toontown. That's because they were originally from Epcot's World of Motion, in the famous Traffic Jam scene!

Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind: WDW Epcot

Propaganda:

"Genuinely the best theme park ride I’ve ever been on. It’s insanely cool, not too short, and really smooth"

"I only got to ride it once (which I mean... I just really don't like that they don't even give the option of riding it a second time in one day, but whatever) but uh yeah! It was so good!!!! Would ride again (if they would actually let you!!!) out of 10"
