Changes

Although only opening with five attractions, Disney-MGM Studios was quite popular and quickly expanded. Later in 1989, the Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular opened on Lakeside Circle. The stunt show recreated stunts from the popular Indiana Jones movie "Raiders of the Lost Ark". Also in 1989, Star Tours- a motion simulator that transports guests to the world of the George Lucas' film series Star Wars debuted. In 1990, New York Street was opened for pedestrians and the 3D film Muppets Vision 3D was added. Also added to New York Street at this time was the Honey, I Shrunk the Kids Playground. In 1991, two shows were added to the park: Beauty and The Beast and the Voyage of The Little Mermaid.

In 1994, the Sunset Boulevard area was added to the Studios. As a part of the expansion The Twilight Zone Tower Terror opened. On the Tower of Terror, guests are transported into Rod Sterling's Twilight Zone where they board a haunted elevator. The elevator drops guests 15 stories before rising back up and dropping them again. The next change major to the park came in 1997, when the Monster Sound Show was replaced with the ABC Sound Studio: One Saturday Morning. The new show was used to feature cartoons airing on ABC, a network recently purchased by Disney. In 1998, the nighttime spectacular Fantasmic! was added to Disney-MGM Studios. The new firework show was a battle of good vs. evil staring Mickey Mouse. In 1999, Sunset Boulevard got another thrill ride with the addition of the Rock N' Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith, which took guests on a high speed tour of Hollywood set to Aerosmith music.
