Is there a list of movies from the Great Movie Ride at HS

[elf]

I'm just curious if there is a list of movies anywhere from the great movie ride. I'd like to work my way through them with my kids and my parents. I know there are some the kids can't watch, but I'll work around them.

One would think I have nothing better to do. I'm in the middle of packing, moving my family to NY this Thur. or Frid. to take care of parents. But here I am.

It's not a straight forward list, you'll have to read it to get the names of the movies. There's some good info on the ride on that site though.

That's it thank you. It even listed some movies that used to be in the ending montage.

The John Wayne film in the "previews" is The Searchers. Good movie, too.

The John Wayne film in the "previews" is The Searchers. Good movie, too.

In 2007, The Searchers was named by the American Film Institute (AFI) as the #1 best western of all time. The top 10:

The Searchers
High Noon
Shane
Unforgiven
Red River
The Wild Bunch
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
McCabe and Mrs. Miller
Stagecoach
Cat Ballou

At the very beginning is the scene with girls and the bubbles, Lightfoot Parade.After Mary Poppins you come to the scene with James Cagney and then the Gangster Scene. After Indiana Jones there's the little scene of The Horror Movies with the mummies.

Some of the movies I remember from the finale are 2001:A Space Oddesey, Shakespeare in Love, Fantasia, Funny Girl, Three Men and a Baby, The Ten Commandments, Showboat, The Sound of Music, Narnia, Streetcar Named Desire-I think that's the one where Brando yells "Stella!", Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, Malcom X, Patton. There's so many more I can see, but don't know the names like the movies with Woody Allen, Charlie Chaplin, Al Pacino, and Jackie Chan.

And a bit of trivia in case anyone hasn't noticed - all the trailers shown in the theater queue before you get on the ride are in scenes from the ride, although not all ride scenes have their trailers shown.
