    As of September 3, Universal Studios will be shutting down the still popular vomit inducing time travel simulator: Back to the Future: The Ride.

    It is being replaced next year by some kind of ride featuring...The Simpsons.

    Now, I'm not exactly a fan of this ride. It's dated and I always end up feeling a bit queasy when I get off it but to replace it with The Simpsons? I think that's wrong. It's a legendary ride that nearly everyone knows and has fond memories of. Are we ready to just toss it aside for The Simpsons of all things? Why not refurbish the ride? Upgrade the technology and give it a chance to recapture its glory. Certainly something could be done besides removing it completely? I guess what's done is done. I'll miss seeing that Delorian parked outside the ride. I'll miss getting that urge to rush home and watch one of the movies whenever I get off the ride.

    Recently, Co-Creator and writer Bob Gayle and Doc Brown himself Christopher Lloyd were on hand at Universal Studios to bid the ride a fond farewell.

    There is less than a month until the ride closes so if you are able to head to Universal Studios Hollywood do so and take one last trip Back to the Future.
