Disney's Hollywood Studios Cast have reported that the Great Movie Ride has unveiled several changes today (5/29/15) as part of the new Turner Classic Movies sponsorship.
Here's a listing of the changes:
- Movie posters (digital screens) that rotate through classic movies have been added to the queue area .
- The pre-show movie trailer loop has been replaced by a new, longer pre-show film narrated by Robert Osborne.
- The marquee in the loading area has been replaced. The original 'A Spectacular Journey into the Movies--A Cast of Thousands! A Sweeping Spectacle of Thrills! Chills! and Romance!" has been replaced with 'The Ultimate Celebration of Classic Movies--Presented by TCM Turner Classic Movies'
- Robert Osborne has been added as a new audio host for the show scenes; however, the Guides have maintained portions of their previous live narration. All 'interaction' between your Guide and other 'characters' you meet along your journey remains the same.
- The finale montage has been replaced by a new montage introduced by Robert Osborne. The new montage is a mix of clips from the previous montage and new clips.

In the sense that there is a new narration by Robert Osborne, yes.
The script for the live Guides appears to have not changed significantly, although it is now shorter and includes some interaction with Robert Osborne's narration.

You mean every guides favorite movie genre is still horror?

Don't have confirmation on that quip, but it does appear that they still can't run red lights, even in the movies.
