Attraction Insider: Star Tours II

[GothicRainbows1415]

Which ride is scarier? This or the 80's one?

[zombieassasin417]

hmm i never seem to get to my destinations..

[avsfrickenROCK]

the new ride is a lot tamer.

[Tlex85]

Didn't the Ewoks try to eat Han, Luke, and Leia? Why would they send tourists to just barge in and live in their villages?

[hollyharrisonmusic]

@Tlex85 b/c kids make their parent's buy ewok stuffed animals at the gift shop on the way out! haha

[ThePolypop]

******* SUPRE COOL !!!!! *****

[RockysToys]

I'm not sure if I want to fly Star Tours..... I wonder if any other airline company has the same package..... :)

[MushuDennis]

the first one did this 2 but it is always going wrong ?????

[KatieKalamity]

Alderaan, voted safest planet of the galaxy... LOL

[Zack12117]

Sadly there was a flood in Naboo

[Brandemic]

Coolest ride ever! I was the rebel spy!

[MayHikariKetchum]

@Brandemic

Same here! I was shocked when I found out that I was the rebel spy!

[cowboyznindianz]

Alderan!! safest planet in the galaxy!! *mean while*, Darth vader: You may fire when ready..*KA-BOOOM*

[Soccer4life961]

lololol haha i know im not gonna be goin to alderan!

[youlldietrying]

Alderan was destroyed

[HBSnaruto20]

Do we get to see Alderaan blown up? xD

[brucesussin]

If Went to Alderaan.... I would want 50% of my money back since it is one way ticket!! LOL

[MrOliverjones100]

calafonia or paris will this be ?

[SpeedRacerFlubber]

If Star Tours still went to Alderaan by the time by the time of "A New Hope"...I feel sorry for whoever went on that ride at the time.

[aynov]

How can Alderan be the safest planet in the galaxy? Isn't it a bunch of rubble now??? This tour must be dangerous!  I didn't have luck with the last tour I went on either. Seem to remember getting shot at a lot!

[jam4798]

How much so i can go?? xP

[QuentinDucel]

c'est plutot paradoxal :/... Star Tours 2 est "censé" être l'epoque d'avant la guerre des clones (ou du moins pendant) alors utilisé des images de l'épisode 6 apres la destruction de l'etoile de la mort me parait plutot suspect ^^

[myasasin69]

Oh, look, another comment about Alderaan...

[geothevanni]

Went on Star Tours yesterday @ Disneyland. It was amazing!

[jerkmanthing]

Ha Alderan was destroyed...

[ThemeParkInReview]

@MonorailVideos Sitting in the queue doesn't count as a spot.

[holdenthedestroyer]

lol aldearan the safest plannet it got blown up :D

[inesis]

I live on the safest planet in the Galaxy...Alderan is actually Switzerland.

[turydragon]

@inesis

Hope you don't get blown up in the future. Just saying.

[ninjawafflexD]

Alderan safest planet XD

[sylartookmybrains]

hey guys, it opens today, like if youre psyched to ride it, imma b in line, see you there

[1littlg8]

alderean safest place in the universe....

yeah safe until a huge space station shoots a laser there and it burns and explodesds to astrioids

[fctiger74]

@mbenzsl2000 Thats cool! But change happen for a reason. And there IS a death star sequence, so they managed to squeeze one in. The ride is fantastic, trust me! ;)

[mbenzsl2000]

@fctiger74 Did you go on it? When did it open? I thought it wasnt gonna be ready till june or july....

[PirateGurl121]

@mbenzsl2000 The WDW one is open and DL opens June 3 but DL has been doing soft openings for almost the entire week and they have done the cast member previews and the annual passholder previews already. And i'm sure that they have done media previews by now.

[fctiger74]

@mbenzsl2000 Hey there!! Nope, have not rode it yet. It officially opens here on June 3rd, although they have been soft opening it to Annual Passholders. I will be on it June 4th ;). I plan to ride it 4 times on Saturday and another 2 or 3 times on Sunday. Will be back here then to post my review :).

[fctiger74]

@mbenzsl2000 Oh and I said 'trust me' because most of my friends has including some that works in the parks. Not a single hated it. They were all totally psyched about it and said you will want to ride it again and again! I trust them :).

[ennoidyam]

Star Tours is a Rip off! I booked a Trip to Alderaan, it looked great in the brochures but when we got "there" they told me it "

No longer existed"! Riiight! Do they thing I have "stupid" on my forehead? Buncha con artists! Rude too, when I complained the pilot told me to "watch my mouth or I would find myself floating home" :< Oh, AND they don't  take Republic credits either -cash only!

[icsws55]

To boldly go where no Jedi has gone before.....

[kalvintaka1]

Tht StarTour looks like "ATARI" ... ;-)

[HOLOKRON]

I want my ticket now!!

[ThatHauntFreak2]

I'm going a preview of this today! I hope it's good...

[joshsoo23]

@mbenzsl2000 true but you gotta admit that gets old

But i heard you still see the death star it's part of many destinations you can get

[mbenzsl2000]

Looks cool, and im sure the effects will be sweet.....BUT, flying through the trench of the Death Star....you just cant beat it. sorry.

They should have built another complex to house the new attractions. The original ride is just priceless.

[fctiger74]

@mbenzsl2000 Nah, it was time to go! It looked old and outdated, but yes great for its time. Everything about this new ride I read is BEYOND amazing!!

[Trukknotmunky]

Destinations: Allderaan, Hoth, Endor, Bespin, Tattooine, THE DEATH STAR, Coruscant, Naboo, Geonosis, and Kashyyk. 10 destinations, 54 total adventures possible!

[alantic1]

Why can't they build another star tours next to the older one, instead replace it?!

Fortunatly they are not going to update the ride at disneyland paris for now. Sorry for the bad english but i'm italian

[TheMattholland]

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't send us to those crappy places from episodes I-III!  Keep it classic, Disney!

[armoredyosk]

lol. its funny because it got blowed up!

[RavenHawkes]

Text message: Ah we just got to Alderran. There's some strange moon that wasn't here 10 mins ago. Hmm some green light coming from it now. oh well TTYL. : p

[LalakiProductions]

JUNE 3RD!!!

[GoldLiahona]

Safest place in the galaxy indeed. Oh look at that suspicious moon thing that just appeare(BOOM)

[xKiNGSNiPER2x]

YOU GUYS HERE THAT!!! THE SAFEST PLACE IN THE GALAXY!!! nOW WE KNOW THAT THIS RIDE REALLY ID A SMOOTH RIDE TO THE PLANETS AND NOT A CRAZY MISHAP LIKE THE RECENT TRIP!!! WOOHOO!!!!

[happiness2x]

EEP I can't wait! The new renovations are gonna rock!

[The2010countdown]

Lets hope that the Starspeeder 1000 will make it to Endor THIS TIME

[ThatChineseKid23]

Alderan was already abliterated by now since they it's in the galactic republic era. Outsmarted Disney!

[LordChubChub]

@ThatChineseKid23 This attraction is a prequel to the original Star Tours. The first Star Tours took place just after Episode VI. This time it is taking place between Episodes III And IV. I suggest you look it up

[LordChubChub]

SUPER EXCITED FANBOY SQUEAL! EEEEEEEEKKKKKK!

[derrago]

i hope they kept that one robot, i forgot his name. you know, the one that has been flying those things for years but he always says its his first time lol XD

[livn4myjc]

@derrago I think his name is Rex

[JakobStudios]

@livn4myjc its now ace



[MasterWindu11]

Cant wait to go on it

[nsc337]

Star Tours 2 Opens on June 3rd at Disneyland as well as The Little Mermaid ride at Disney's California Adventure

[kimeh22]

lol @ Alderran being safe.

[cojute06]

Not sure if I sure fly Star Tours again....booked a trip to Endor years ago and never made it there....incompentent pilot ;)

[bobasparxx]

Impressive...most impressive. The clip kind of reminds me of the Mars ad in the movie Total Recall. I can't wait to plan a trip to Disneyland now...

[ultilinium8]

So.......WHEN ARE WE GOING TO NABOO, I REALLY WANT TO THE GUNGAN SWAMP.

[justnaesman]

About time!

[divacat80]

will we ever finally get to Endor?!?! :P

[Xenomorph237]

You know people, If you are afraid of the war and really want to stay away from the action. All you need to do to avoid the war is stay on the planet of the Republic. Stay there and wait for the whole war to blow over. Living there is like feeling that there is no war. We hear about when living here and yet we are aren't effected. Of course we feel sorry for the ones who don't live here. Because it is truly safe here. But I bet the war wont effect us. :)

[theslaking2]

ok. i want to be there but i live in åland island. but it look very nice. sorry for the bad english i speak swedish.

[theslaking2]

fake

[DisMupPix010]

@theslaking2

Its not fake. This is from the official DisneyParks channel.

[bobrobert13]

I tried to reserve tickets to Alderaan, but they said it wasn't possible at the present time. Kinda sad, i remember going there as a kid. I wonder why they wont let us go...

[JakobStudios]

i think there going to do the pod race, then do the scene from the 2nd movie when they are chasing the bounty hunter just a thought

[DisMupPix010]

I wish that the DisneyParks blog would hurry and post more info about this! :-)

[Surfliner775]

@DisMupPix010 I know! Its been really susepenseful knowing what Tom is gonna reveal next, but we've been waiting for 2 months! I hope theres a new update at least by this month! :D (oh and this is MonorailVideos)

[red09323]

im not so sure........ Im still getting over my last trip to Endor. Oh, what the heck! Bad things cant happen twice! ( Sarcasm, gotta love it! )

[moneytree661]

I love the sarcasm. We are most likely going to end up in the middle of a war or something.

[1leprecon]

I hope they still have at least one with the original ride

[Angie2343]

@1leprecon Or the ride will be reworked for the Endor portion.

[JakobStudios]

@1leprecon the one in pairs is staying the original ride but i don't think you would want to go all the way to paris to ride it.

[DisMupPix010]

@DCSk8ingNc

Well, the new ride is set in-between episodes 3 and 4.

[johnkerry7]

@DisMupPix010 .....dang, that means they are gonna have to re-program the dialogue for 3PO and R2 in the line.... :(

[DisMupPix010]

@johnkerry7

I've also heard that there will be multiple destinations for the ride, so people will rarely see the same thing twice.

There is also going to be a new “spokesbot” for the Star Tours travel company, named Aly San San.

[JakobStudios]

@johnkerry7 there getting rid of them. they are re-designing the whole queue they are going to have a spokes person just like johnkerry said

[JakobStudios]

@DisMupPix010 i thought it was 1-3 only because the pod race scene

[DisMupPix010]

@JakobStudios

Its been confirmed that the new Star Tours will take place in-between Episodes 3 and 4. And there will be multiple destinations. Pod-racing will not the the only thing. :-)

[JakobStudios]

@DisMupPix010 are they keeping the same ride system like the original?

[DisMupPix010]

@JakobStudios

Yes, people will still be riding in Star Speeders and they will still be simulators. I assume that there will be updated technology though.

[Skeeball22]

Opening in March or April 2011

Can't Wait!! :-)

[DrummerMan059]

I will miss rex and all the things about star tours. i hope they dont take away the ship when you walk in and c3-p0 and r2 r there and all the other stuff u see while waiting in line

[JakobStudios]

@DrummerMan059 they are taking away the ship and everything like that its going to be more like a airport. but that's what i herd. they cant have c-3po because he is going to be the pilot but honestly i dont know for sure.

[CedarStreetFilms]

Oh, my sweet Lord...

[DisMupPix010]

@MonorailVideos

Yup. I saw that blog post as well.

Exciting stuff. :-)

[jimbodeek]

The new version will be able take guests to Corusant, Tatooine, and even Hoth!

[jimbodeek]

Thi

[blueydsniper]

I was told it will be finished by the end of this year. I'm hoping they finish in time

[sonic619760]

@DisMupPix010 Really? Nice!

[omegamer09]

All I know is Disney better not have gotten rid of the bickering r2d2 and c-3po animatronics that's the highlight of the show to me

[bomberguy06]

haha Alderran voted safest place? funny because last I remember the Death Star blew it to bits

[ThePirateprincess23]

@bomberguy06 If you remember, Princess Leia says that Alderran is peaceful and has no weapons. That is what they mean by safest place.

[simpsonsdumbhead]

@bomberguy06 well in episode 4 leia says alderaan has no weapons and its peaceful

[Dragonrider1227]

@bomberguy06 I think that's the joke

[jimbodeek]

@bomberguy06 This will be before Alderran went boom. Not right before, but maybe a while before.

[sideswiper22]

I think the alderaan version of startours is a disaster

like you must get away before the death star destroys the planet

[xHeadfirstForHalosx]

Last time I booked with them it was a complete disaster! I didn't end up anywhere near Endor!

[DisMupPix010]

@xHeadfirstForHalosx

Let me guess, your pilot overshot Endor and ending up in a combat zone?

[FantasmicMouse]

Never remove the chime 1:03... or else i'll never ride this again

[Angie2343]

=D WOW!!

[DriftwoodENT]

About time, you scruffy looking nerf herders

[kingofthemooners09]

0:35 RECOLA!

[Mephiles602]

I'll definitely be booking this tour. I'm sure nothing will go wrong. ;)

[Benstudio13]

Yay! Your keeping the chimes!

[Angie2343]

@Benstudio13 And WE'RE GOING TO ENDOR!!

[JakobStudios]

@Angie2343 actully your not...... your going to kashyyyk, geonosis, hoth, naboo, corusant, and tatootine.

[iAmAnonymousTom]

@Benstudio13 Michael Giacchino of Pixar is doing the new score, whereas John Williams of Star Wars actually turned down the opportunity to create a new score, as he did with the first version of Star Tours.

[Imagineer5986]

I heard about this when I was there like a week ago

[thechipmunks]

YES!

[jayrobson88]

I like that this preview video is decidedly old-school. Definately looks like pre-ride footage from the 80s/early 90s, just like the old star tours. So it seems like they'll be keeping some 80s/early 90s essence to it. That's a good thing.

[oathkpr]

I just hope 99% of it isn't CGed like most of Disney's movie rides now. I liked how the original ride's film looked real and used real props.

[jklmanthe5]

If Jar Jar Binks has any role in this ride I'm gonna sue George Lucas.

[QuadropheniaBrosef]

i can't wait to do this. I can't tell you how many times i've been on star tours and wished for more. much much more! Thanks Disney

[QuadropheniaBrosef]

hahahaha Alderaan = safest planet in galaxy.

KABOOOM

[dsalangsang]

1:04 i love that sound

[antdude]

So no podracer?

[DisMupPix010]

@antdude

No, that is always still a possibility. This is only a video that will appear in the queue. People will not necessarily visit all of the places seen in this video.

Just like how the original Star Tours queue videos advertised trips to Hoth and Tatooine, places that people never actually saw in the ride.

[antdude]

@DisMupPix010 Ah OK. Thanks. :)

Bummer that I missed the original one. :(

[DisMupPix010]

@antdude

You can always find the original on youtube. :-)

[antdude]

@DisMupPix010 I did that but they were all cammed for the ride part. :(

[jimbodeek]

@antdude There are still journeys to Tatooine. That means that there will be some podracing.

[tokYos]

is this the same voice from the updated monkey island series of stan the used boat & coffin salesman?? it sounds like him & is affiliated with lucas film..?

[AdrenalineAddict610]

Um...whatever happened to the Tattooine scene?

[sonic619760]

@AdrenalineAddict610 Thats a hint right there that theres more than three destinations ;)

[mod9613]

cant wait for endor!!!

[thebradchannel]

i love that beeping noise da da da dum

[epcotcenter1]

1:03 you gotta love that chime! That chime was in remember..dreams come true during the star tours section of the fireworks show!

[DisMupPix010]

Just a reminder;

Star Tours II will be set in-between episodes 3 and 4.

[LLHawaiian]

I love star tours when i got to Disneyland on my 3rd day of my 3 day park hopper star tours was shut down and had the curtians pulled around with a big sign that said comming soon 2010 it sucked and i was sad but i was happy i was one of the last people to ride a wonderfull monumental ride and just proud to be at disneyland.

[DisMupPix010]

@LLHawaiian

Actually the sign says 2011. :-)

[Gello70]

For anyone who stopped by the Disney exhibit at Celebration V might be glad we DIDN'T "land" in Endor.

[gr13340]

true irony!!! i looked in yellow pages and all over the internet!!! i want to travel!! i want to have my own travel agent!

[BlackStarx3]

also more irony while we are on Alderan ... on the schedule spontaneous explosion :D followed by death ^^

[gr13340]

@BlackStarx3 yup is cruel irony!!1

[osborneproductions]

idk i mean my first star tours had a complication of a new driver not knowing what to do lol if anyone gets me haha

[twoeffs38]

Alderaan?! Are you kidding me? We're just going to get blown up. Awesome.

[WDI2008]

There should be warning about Alderran beware of the Battlestations the size of a small moon 

[harbinger161]

Alderaan had a great fireworks show one evening but that haven't done it since. I remember it was the talk of the Galaxy.

[jimbodeek]

@harbinger161 It's Bespin that has the fireworks.

[EchoBoomer1987]

Anybody know how I can contact a travel agency in Alderaan? I tried calling a few places and it's like their not even there!

[vigo894]

@EchoBoomer1987= I hope that nothing's wrong on Alderaan. I start my new job as a Planetary shield maintenance worker next Tuesday.

[GallardoSpyderV10]

@DoogBoogyZeeky2 dude I rather hit up tatoonie that way we can see Han shoot first once and for all ;)

[jericodog]

i always loved the little do to do dod od dod do at the end

[Superguy1001]

i'm so glad that they haven't added anything from the new movies yet...

[thecopykidofthestarz]

@Superguy1001 Lucas Is Getting Wiser. Plus I Like How They Say Alderan Is the Safest Planet in the Galaxy.

[coolmccool5]

@thecopykidofthestarz Makes me wonder how many Star Tours travellers were casualties of the Destruction of Alderaan...

[thecopykidofthestarz]

@coolmccool5 hopefully not me! I booked a trip for Alderaan Never heard of it being destroyed!. I booked My flight for next year a little after the empire clears the sector of rebels and moves their new wepon in the area am I safe? LOL

[kycruisecrazy]

Sign me up!!

[toyboy566]

Now Where do I get the Package??

[Darrigan]

I am SO glad they kept the signature chime for Star Tours! *squee* I was afraid they wouldn't keep any of it. ^_^

[thegoz85]

LOL to the "safest planet in the galaxy" line!

[RollerCoasterGuy100]

I know right the old one says it's first flight and it has ben running for 25 years

[GallardoSpyderV10]

They forgot tattoine!

[DoogBoogyZeeky2]

@GallardoSpyderV10 An extremely hot and dry planet with crime-infested towns isn't exactly a good choice for a getaway vacation LOL. Now a good planet for a getaway vacation would be Mustafar LOL :D

[jimbodeek]

@DoogBoogyZeeky2 You mean to fly to the planet where a famous lightsaber duel took place? That would be something exciting.

[codyaustintraylor13]

' i cant wait !!!!!!!

' The Last Tour To Endor Event was AMAZING!!!!!!

( i herd Darth Vader is on the ride but dont tell NE 1. XD

[GallardoSpyderV10]

I soo can't wait!

[Hoofer26]

Star Tours made me wanna vom
