Great Movie Ride 'Overture' Question

Hi there,

I've got a kinda specific question about the Hollywood Hills Overture for the Great Movie Ride, and I'd love it if anyone could help!



At :49 seconds, over the chugging orchestration, you can hear the horns playing "I'm singing in the rain...". Then, the next musical nod is played with a xylophone-type instrument, but I can't place the theme or the movie for this one. Finally, you are able to hear the first three notes of the Raiders of the Lost Ark theme.

Does anybody have a clue what the second musical theme is? It's about six notes and in between the "Singin' in the the Rain" and "Raiders" musical nods.

Thanks so much!

Anyone ever seen the GORGEOUS Hidden Minnie on the big painting as you enter the stage to get on the ride? You have to have a CM use a flash light to point it out to you but it's well worth it. I love the Great Movie Ride.
