* HilariousInHindsight: The inclusion of ''Franchise/{{Alien}}'' in this ride can be seen as pretty funny when one realizes that Disney would later claim ownership of the ''Alien'' franchise via their buyout of Fox's film and TV divisions.
** In a 1998 Walt Disney World promotion video starring Mickey Mouse and his friends, Mickey and Minnie are seen on the Great Movie Ride. [[Ride/MickeyAndMinniesRunawayRailway An attraction starring them]] replaced the Great Movie Ride in 2020.
