The guests fly through Springfield and encounter Maggie again, who gets her pacifier back. Sideshow Bob then pulls it away again, and Maggie shortly uses the guest's car as a pacifier. This stops when Marge tells her to spit it out. The guests follow the Simpsons back home, and over to their couch in a recreation of the show's opening.
The Simpsons and riders are then captured by Kang and Kodos , who turn the couch into a Drop Tower, telling them that "all rides must end near the gift shop". As the couch falls out from the sky, they pass various other characters and Marge tells the riders to smile for the on-ride photo. They land on Sideshow Bob, at which Homer proclaims relief at the ride being over.
At the last second, Maggie pushes the giant Krusty head found at the park's entrance on to the riders, ending the ride with Homer enthusiastically yelling that he wants to ride again.
Krusty then appears on the TV screen in the loading room and remarks, "Well, that's our ride. Hey, what does this do? In the Hollywood version, Krusty also takes a picture of the guests. In preparation for the ride, the Florida version of "Back to the Future: The Ride" closed on March 30, , while the Hollywood version closed on September 3, The store sells Simpsons -related merchandise.
All the actors from the show reprise their roles, with the exception of Harry Shearer , who declined to participate in the project. An opening ceremony for the ride took place on May 27, , and an estimate was made that over 1,, people had attended. On June 13, , an unidentified mechanism failed, resulting in a ride vehicle and its occupants being sprayed with vegetable oil.
Verification will take place when required based on theme park attendance. Children under the age of 12 are not required to show proof of vaccination or a negative test result. Regardless of vaccination status, face coverings are required to be worn at all times, both indoors and outdoors, when visiting the theme park. The Simpsons Ride is no different. During the pre-show video introducing the upcoming motion simulator, guests enjoy a hilarious video of the proceedings.
They learn the backstory for the attraction, which is that Krusty powers all his new ride with…nuclear power. In fact, the entire facility is a nuclear reactor. When he notices a recently fired Barney walking out in a Scratchy costume, he brains the hapless drunk and infiltrates the theme park.
Once inside, he holds Krusty at gunpoint and demands that the Simpsons family board what is now a dangerous and presumably fatal version of the new attraction. Also, Maggie grows to 50 feet tall for some reason. The pre-show for The Simpsons Ride might be the most enjoyable across all theme parks in the world, especially for fans of The Simpsons.
When David's not at Walt Disney World, he's writing about movies and box office analysis, economics, streaming media, technology, travel, and parks and recreation.
He's the author of the Disney Demystified and Behind the Ride book series. Favorite ride at Universal. Riders enter a small room and hop into a car that seats two rows of four people.
That said, all of this magic looks absolutely cheesy with the lights on. When the ride starts, the cars lurch, and the fog hisses. The next best stop was Revenge of the Mummy. Just like the Mummy movies, the ride is a wacky mix of horrors and thrills.
Unlike the movies, which suck, this ride does not. As with most of the rides at the park, Universal Studios work closely with Stephen Sommers, director of the Mummy movies, to create Revenge of the Mummy.
As our tour guide explained, Sommers wanted the ride to embody the best of his two favorite types of attractions: haunted houses and rollercoasters. At first, the ride feels almost campy. Then you plummet into darkness and the room catches on fire—real fire, licking at the ceiling and tearing up the walls.
The fire is searingly hot, unlike most tame amusement park special effects. When the group of reporters and Universal engineers walked through a side door during the tour, we could see the curling rails of the rollercoaster that was tightly wound in a space about the size of a ballroom.
Everything was black and coated in what looks like fire retardant foam. Using an effect first pioneered for the movie Backdraft , engineers explained, Universal Studios created a controlled burn with nothing more than a bit of methane and some fans to direct the flames. The system is so carefully controlled, in fact, that engineers even fine-tune the fire to make it just hot enough to feel unnervingly intense, but not so hot that it would make tourists uncomfortable.
It was nearly midnight by the time the group made it to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. Rowling-approved ride at the park.
