One TikToker discovered that Universal Studios Hollywood might be neglecting the ride ahead of its imminent closure. @johnnymetro77 posted a video of a poster in the queue for The Simpsons Ride:
The poster advertises a 3D Maggie Simpson short, The Longest Daycare, premiering in theaters alongside Ice Age: Continental Drift (2012). That makes the sign over ten years old.
“I’m not saying The Simpsons Ride is getting old but in the queue there’s a poster for an all new Maggie short cartoon from 2012,” the Guest wrote. He noted that he still loves the ride, but it’s beginning to show its age after 14 years.
Join The Simpsons™ on a trip to Krustyland. Grab a seat on an indoor simulated rollercoaster ride, where you’ll careen and crash through the park with Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie in an over-the-top non-stop exhilarating adventure. Keep an eye out for cameos from some of Springfield’s fan-favorite characters as you adventure through the town.
New to You
All-new Simpsons animation was created for the ride, and also the preshow and queue areas.
Bigger and Better
The ride animation is shown on a gigantic 80-foot diameter domed surface.

What do you think will replace The Simpsons Ride at Universal Orlando Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood when the Parks’ contracts end in 2025? Do you think The Simpsons are headed to Walt Disney World Resort?
