  • I remember when this video came out it was like yesterday I can't believe how fast time flies :(

  • @mnason4000 I personally thought the new version was great. If you disagree, I respect your opinion. However, your specific grievance puzzles me; "It wasn't even that fast"? It's a motion simulator! It doesn't move anywhere!

  • i loved it!! its the best ride ever!

  • Crappy Vador voice. Jame's Earl must have wanted too much.

    

  • I was the rebel spy!

  • open year 22001111???

  • HAHAHAHA! Didn't see that coming!

    Bob: Star Tours is closing!

    Everyone: YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! :D

  • what, that loks lame i can get all u girls into the park 4 free 

  • all ready went on star tours at disneyland it was awsome

  • coming to your galaxy 220011 I have to wait that long???

  • i was there on the last day of star tours 1.0 they told us that it was the last ride!

  • ITS ALREADY OPEN

    

  • FINALLY HERE

  • I just rode this ride with some special passes from cast members and let me tell you its fun! I enjo`yed it but for some reason i felt it short. There are lots of detail you may notice from the previous ride to this one. Try to find out which ones!

    The planet i went to was kashyyk and courouscant. I personally didn't like those two. In kashyyk all you went through is in a speeder bike chase and in courouscant just in a traffic pursuit like in episode 2. I heard other planets were fun!!!

  • damit!! its not gonna be open by grad night. :( i graduate on the 26th

  • that was sweet! and so Star Warsy! LOL Big fan Here! and hope to visit Disney to check that out!!

  • I hope someone could broadcast it on the internet

  • Star tours is closing. YEEEEAAAHHH WOOOHOOO. Wtf

  • @PavStudios lmao

  • CANT WAIT!

  • DARTH VADER LIVES! :O

  • I really hope it's not a podracing thing. WHY WOULD YOU BE IN A PODRACER WHEN YOU'RE DOING STAR TOURS?!

  • @pokiiee Please go on a Disney website and learn more about this ride if you havent done it yet. Or just google Star Tours 2. Trust me when I say this ride will go far beyound your imagination and a podrace is a small feature of this ride!

  • Getting rid of Eisner was the best thing and this is a good example.

  • @disneylandbiggestfan Disney World will probably plan a soft release of the ride in the weeks prior to its official opening. Make sure to show up early for a sure chance to experience the attraction. I wish you luck & I'll be at Disney World this June :)

  • Do Star Tours 1 and 2

  • Rumors had been going around about star tours closing and either a star tours 2 or a walle being open after it closed. I think that's why everyone was cheering because the rumors were true.

  • how do i be one of the first to ride star tours 2 at disney world

  • The clone trooper in the middle is a little bit taller than the rest lol

  • why are they happy that its closing thy didnt know that they were making a new one yet...

  • "I'm sorry to tell you that star tours will be closing.."

    Everyone: WHOOOOOOOOO!!!!

    Random Girl: YES!

  • Hey supposedly the date is set to debut at Disneyland on May 10th and WDW on May 17th! NOT official yet, but thats the date out there! Eitherway its coming soon! Cant wait!

  • @fctiger74 They've announced it will open at Disney World on May 20.

  • @AttractionsMagazine yeah I heard that too a few days ago! Still waiting on the DLR date as thats the one I live 30 mins from ;).

  • @AttractionsMagazine it opens on june 3rd but on may 20th is was just a special preview, but later the 20th and also some of the 21st they have "soft opened" it. Soft Opening means they open it a few hours a day to test on the public, the have it closed today but it was opened yesterday.

  • @fctiger74 june 3rd for disneyland! and may 20th for wdw. can i just point out that they closed disneylands 1st and it gets opened last..........

  • @JakobStudios Hey there, yeah I know and I'm getting soooo excited! Hell I been searching youtube for any new info lol. And yeah, they did close DL's first and it will open last. BUT, you have to look at it like this: They will get extra effects the Florida version will NOT get, so we are going to have the better ride. And you heard about saving the best for last! ;)

  • @fctiger74 i hope the best if for last. is it just me or do they update us on little mermaid everyday and every 4 months on star tours?

  • @JakobStudios Yeah, good point! They are keeping Star Tours REALLY close to the vest while Little Mermaid gives us updates all the time. Part of it though is DCA is still struggling so they want to give people as much info as possible. EVERYONE will show up for Star Tours at Disneyland regardless. And I think they really want to surprise people too.

  • @fctiger74 they practily gave away the whole little mermaid ride away by now

  • @fctiger74 Just in time for the Star Wars Weekends

  • Oh boy.....a poster.

  • The new Star Tours will be set in-between episodes 3 and 4, and there will be multiple destinations.

  • Am I the only person who sees the Pod race as kind of weak? I personally LOVED flying through the Death Star, i hope they at least keep the classic Tour involved some how. Hell Im already kinda pissed that its closed.... Oh well.

  • Yay!!! We will FINALLY be going to Endor! xD

  • IF YOU PEOPLE would follow the disney links....there are 3 destinations in the adventure, not just a pod race. akso it take place between 3-4, not in epidode I....ignorance is not biliss

  • @BluStile3

    I have actually heard that there will be 54 different experiences.

    And yes, it does take place in-between episodes 3 and 4. :-)

  • NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, and not that it's changing, but that they're doing it on the pod race. I mean, I hated that movie, and we want starships in space not on freakin' land. I mean, i respect that they're changing it, but by god, why Star Wars episode 1?

  • @ApolloIVtv1 well there will be about 300 different scenarios, so there about a 1/300 chance you will get the pod race.

  • @ApolloIVtv1

    The Star Tours travel company will still exist, people will still be riding in Star Speeders.

    Also, there will be multiple destinations and the ride will be set in-between episodes 3 and 4.

  • LAME!!! Would it be asking too much to see something more exciting than a freaking pod race??? It wasn't that great in the movies...why the hell would I pay almost $70 a person to see it again...in 3D!?!?!?!

  • That has been done before! However that movie with Crush...That's orignal. Where else are you going to see a movie that responds to people in the theater. t can tell what color your wearing, remembers your name. Your actually havign a conversation with a movie peojection.

  • Looking forward to this!!!

  • LOL It wasn't James and it wasn't Chad Vader but whoever the hell it was did a good job! XD

  • 2011,,, I thought it was Portal 2 Year >.<

  • dislike. it feels like i'm playing the nintendo 64 game.

  • Why can't they make a Star Wars themed land, like Harry Potter?

  • @ghosthost100 lol. I see the Harry Potter section of Universal from my school EVERYDAY yet I haven't been IN it yet. :( I feel so ashamed.

  • @ghosthost100 cause they don't have much more room to do crazy expansions unless they scrap downtown disney, the hotels and the parking structure, they got rid of a parking area to make cars land

  • @ghosthost100 Talk to George!

  • shame they didnt pay james earl jones to do the voice... he's not dead yet, and it's not like he's too old to sit in a chair and talk. easy money imo...

  • "things never done at any park"

    Yeah right. Have you BEEN to Wizarding World of Harry Potter? jesus.

  • @maydecember513 they always have to say something stupid...

  • Sounds like they're going where no man has gone before.

    Ahaha... I kid... (though I wish Disney had the rights to Trek as well...)

  • What is Chad Vader doing there?

  • I asked the other week about this when we visited as it had just closed gutted!! thankfully i have been on it before. The guy i spoke to said he couldn't say much, but he did say that if you were to go on this ride 25 times in a day you would get 25 different experiences, i asked which era it will cover & he said it will cover both trilogys, books & somthing else, he only smirked when i asked other questions, but it sounds like there will be multiple ride/screen types

  • Knowing George Lucas, it'll probably be filled with gungans and podracing and crap

  • I would like to read a "Star Wars: Expanded Universe" novel, where they refer to the Star Tours Ride.

    I can imagine Imperial Stormtroopers saying aloud, "Hey, who are those guys? This is a war zone!"

  • when he said star tours was closing everybody cheered. do they HATE star tours?

  • @Trooperman567

    No, they just anticipated the Star Tours update. It had been rumored for a while.

  • i hope the ride comes out before the middle of summer. i want to go SOOO BAAAD

  • If Jar Jar is a part of the new Star Tours I will personally drive to Skywalker Ranch and bitch slap George Lucas. Even if he had nothing to do with it.

  • You tell'em Vader

  • they should just keep the frist one and put the 2nd one some were else

  • AWESOME!!! 

  • They messed it up with the pod racing!!!!! :(

  • @evamar129 what? are you kidding the podracing looks awesome! not to talk crap on the first one but it got pretty boring, this one has the seats moving with the movie and 3D plus it looks like it might even go into space! i dont know about you but i totally cant wait to see this

  • Am I considerd "in the arena"?

  • its not original anymore i think the first is till better

  • guess i'll have to look on ebay for the poster.... lol

  • only a taste... of what? a podrace? wow how original.

    cmon disney we can be a little more creative than that.

    at least put the podrace on another plantet, not the same place as ep1.

    let me take a wild freaken guess, podrace,then clone/droid space battle. then to finish it off a battle on geonosis. this ride will probally be so wrong and inacurate on so many levels that it will blow my mind. just like the first one was

  • @supersonicmike1 Well maybe they don't want to give too much away. I mean, in a movie trailer, you don't give away every single scene. Just like for this trailer, you don't give away every part. To me, this looks really really good.

  • @supersonicmike1

    The ride will not just be a pod race. :-)

    There will be multiple destinations, including Tatooine and Coruscant, and there will be random variations during each trip.

    Also, the ride will be set in-between episodes 3 and 4.

  • This saddens me so much. They need to stop changing everything! There was nothing wrong with Star Tours. It was perfect just the way it was! Screw the younger generation. I don't care if they don't know ep. 4-6 as well as they know ep 1-3. Too bad for you! The pod racing idea is the worst. :(

  • @xawesomexskaxmusicx

    Star Tours was a good ride, but lately it was really showing its age. It was time for a change.

    Let's just hope for the best. :-)

    The ride will NOT just be pod-racing, there are going to be multiple destinations.

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

  • @xawesomexskaxmusicx

    To see one of the new queue videos for Star Tours 2, go to the "Disneyparks" channel.

  • @xawesomexskaxmusicx I agree with this in every single way possible. You said pretty much everything I was gonna say lol

  • @xawesomexskaxmusicx I think it's a great idea...as technology increases the rides become better. the original Star Tours was getting boring.

  • @xawesomexskaxmusicx Nah change is good. Disneyland shouldnt be a museum. We been looking at that same film for over 20 years now and the lack of a queue for the last decade shows how dull people got with it. I have a faith the new stuff will be good! Multiple destinations, 3D, new in-cabin effects, I cant tell you HOW excited I am about this :).

  • @fctiger74 thats like taking the original trilogy and changing it like so.

    i've been watching the original trilogy for 20 years and the lack of a queue for the last decade shows it'll never grow old like the old star tours.

    if you ask me personally I think they should just include the old star tours and the new ones, but I have nothing against the new star tours but I want something I can take my kids to when im older as well

  • @sonicedhoedown1 And why can't u take ur kids on this one as u get older? Not following! And the lack of a queue means people STOPPED riding it much--and I'm talking about the old one since the new one isnt opened yet. They stopped using Fast pass years ago because it wasnt needed and proves it needed something new. Give the new one a chance first. U may love it! Again, change is good!

  • @fctiger74

    I agree! :-)

  • @fctiger74 I kind of agree, people say new rides which replaced, say, horizons and world of motion and people want those back, those are good, but we should at least improve, like you said disney parks shouldn't be a museum

  • @fctiger74 I agree , My girl friend who is from washington state has never been to Disneyland. I am from southern california. So I took her their thinking she would love it . As I had very magical memories at Disneyland. I brought her in and the first thing she said is that it looked old. I was devastated. I will add though, Walt should be turning over in his grave when they built california adventure . It's a freaking carnival !

  • @Bladerunner55217 Funny you mentioned that because I had a freind who visited me from Britian back in 2009. It was his first time at a Disney theme park as well and a hardcore Star Wars fan. He didnt even know the ride existed, but was so excited to ride it. We did it (a total of a 10 minute wait ;)) and after we got off I asked him what he thought? He said it he liked it, but it felt outdated. In fact he didnt want to do it again. He DID want to do Indy over and over again though. ;)

  • @fctiger74 I agree but the old can be good too. Disney knows what they are doing, but maybe it'd be nice to keep the old version too, like they could just give people the option to watch which one they'd like to see. The old one was actually one of my favorites, but I'm glad they redid the entire thing, it looks fantastic!

  • Only a taste of it, and it already looks awesome! I cannot wait for it. It is a shame that the original Star tours will close, though. Good times.

  • Ugh great, a pod race at 20 mph. I can't wait, not. Does Lucasfilm even have a hand in this? Looks boring.

  • @patio87

    George Lucas and ILM are involved with this.

    There will be multiple destinations and people will still be riding in Star Speeders.

  • As long as they don't shut down the Star Wars gift shop...

  • that would be cool if there were like 3 other worlds to go to and you could pick the one you want so it would be like a real airport kinda thing.

  • the star wars thing is over?

  • @donesleyPROD85 there re imagining it!!! there changing it!!!

  • I remember the original Star Tours. Fun memories. I hope it's not just the Podrace simulation

  • is the dance off woth the star wars stars still open in orlando or is that fiinished too???

  • ......I sense a disturbance in the force

  • whe he said star tours was going to be closing, everone started clapping. I was thinking, why the hell would you be happy for that? Then it zoomed out and the stormtroopers came out and I went, Oh. Now I get it.

  • Looks like Darth is going to kill him its coming out 22001111

  • @regolden89

    lmao:D

  • I can't Stand the first 3 episodes. I'm sorry. Episode 5 is the best for me. then 6, then 4.

  • A sequel to a ride?????? Now I've seen everything.

  • this is a tragedy

  • I mean 2011

  • Wait a min...it said 220011 not 2010

  • THIS IS GOING TO BE AWESOME!!

  • WHAT ? WE WILL NEVER BE ABLE AGAIN TO GO ON THE DEATH STAR ??!! Noooooooooooooooooo .....

  • @SciFiGirl1023

    I didn't like podracing in 1999 and I don't like it now !

  • im going to give a wild gues that theyre going to make it like harry potter and the forbiden journey or spiderman

  • @SciFiGirl1023 Yeah Bro I agree 100%. Its Disney so theyre gonna try to attract the Family Fun customer. So its no surprise that they would update a classic ride with Pod Racing... Wow !

  • I'm afraid the new one is going to be ruined by crap from the prequels. I mean, we saw pod racing - that's a good indication that it may be. The original had that classic 80s nostalgic feel that Star Wars of today no longer has.

  • @MacDragard

    Well, lets just hope for the best. The new ride will be set in-between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope.

  • sweet we get to ride it first!!!!

  • according to a worker in disneyland is that its going to have the same turns and everything just with a different view

  • 3:20 kinda looks like "Coming To Your Galaxy 22001111"

    That's a looooong time

  • @rafikiZ12 lol I CANT WAIT!!!

  • @rafikiZ12 i agree it will take a along time the emporer will kill that guy! maybe darth vader lol

  • @rafikiZ12 The trailer is in 3-D

  • what if they had both the nerw one and the old one?

  • but I like the the old one, keep the old one please! It was revolutionary!

  • A new Star Tours attraction AND a new Pirates of the Caribbean movie???!! I am so looking forward to next near.

  • my friend....an employee of Star Tours said that....

    -For the Queue, you get to meet Jar-Jar,Young Obi-Wan Kenobi(Monitor),Qui-Gohn-Jin(M­onitor) and Young Anakin(monitor).

    -For the Boarding Concorse(Riding Point) they will use a new safety video.

    -During the queue, they will use the Cantina Band Music.

  • @moger999 hmm great, based entirely on everything everyone hates about the prequels then. Why don't they just do a new one based on the old ones?

  • @jayrobson88

    I was depressed by Jar-Jar because he sucks!!! lol

  • 2014, when i heard that i thought they were serious

  • @TheXxERRORxx us too

  • @TheXxERRORxx they were just joking.if theres a character saying thats unacceptable itspart of the act.

  • 1 more year!!

  • Comment removed

  • @DisMupPix010 i was there the week it closed

  • We'll see how it turns out. Hopefully Disney doesn't screw up the queue section like they did with Space Mountain. I was just at Disneyland 3 weeks ago, but because of lower back pains I couldn't go on Star Tours. I'm gonna try & get out there again before the 7/27 closure.

  • @N2GLOCK1

    Yeah, I didnt like how they changed the lines for some of the rides at disneyland. I work there and cutting the line in 2 separate halfs is just stupid. They did the same thing for Indiana Jones. I hope Thunder Mountain doesn't get that change.

  • From what I have read about star tours 2, there will be many star wars locations than this. So you will hardley get to experiance the same ride twice. Also what I read up is that there will be surround sound and it will be in HD along ith the 3D and 2 other droids in the ship.

  • IM NOT HAPPY, STAR TOURS IS A CLASSIC.

  • @sexygurlz213 calm down, almost every classic gets remixed.

  • the only thing that made it new is the fact it is in 3D. thats it. why cant they make it a real roller coaster. NOW that is something NEW

  • NO. NOT HAPPY. I could care less about pod racing.

  • OMG i love star wars and am soooo happy ther is gonna be a new 1! I hope the simulation will be better

  • They better keep Captain Rex!

  • Comment removed

  • @nerdtalk326 they are

  • It's going to be a blasted 3D show?! How is this going to be any different then Muppetvission? Other than the obvious lack of imagination of course. In Muppetvission you're sitting in a theater watching a performance by the Muppets. In this new monstrosity you're flying behind a rely lame pod-race then apparently competing in it? How did you get in that position? When on the real Star Tours you start in a spaceport and then get on a spaceship.

  • @GaryGyarados it's still going to be a motion simulator and their will also be flights to coruscant.

  • Comment removed

  • So this will be in Disney Paris to?? :(

  • @trooperman dude at one point when I was taking a look at this I was thinking the same idea have the Cantina be lunch and diner, Dex's diner be like a breakfast place and the night club from episode 2 can be a night club.

  • Why don't they just have both versions showing instead of completely removing the first version?

  • So I heard Somewhere that Star Tours I is still going to be there? That you'll have the option to go on the original or the new one. Anyone have confirmation on this?

  • WOW!! I hope STAR TOURS II is better than the original. The one there now is good but quiten dated!

  • @carlswitzerfan It will

  • Wow! A second Star Wars ride! Well won't that be something?

  • i hope its more than just pod racing.hope they go to other world and alot of space flight like the old startours.hope the expand the startour area and have a star wars diner too like the cantina .gotta blow those harry potter fans at universal away!

  • @trooperman It will, from what I read theres gonna be alot of destinations u go to thats in the star wars universe

  • However, I am stoked about the pod racing. To be in the middle of that is going to be totally wicked! Ever since I first saw Episode I when I was little, I always wished I could be in a pod race and now I am for real. Whooo!! I also presume that they're refurbishing the ride cuz the current one is kind of worn out and glitchy. But I'm definately going to miss the video before you sit down with those little teddy bear guys and the flight attendants, it had all that 80s goodness to it!

  • I hate that Disneyland keeps redoing everything. Stick with tradition! I also hate how they're going to do the new one in 3D. Why does everything these days have to be in 3D?!?!  It would probably be just as good in 2D. With all these 3D movies out, I'm already used to the 3D expirience, so 3D is not going to add anymore for my Star Tours expirience. I am also pissed that they are including the prequel franchise into the new ride because they weren't that great.

  • They should have either gotten James Earl Jones to do the voice, OR a great replacement is the guy who does Chad Vader (his name slips my mind at the moment)

  • Will it just be the pod racing scene? If so, that's lame. I'd want to see the Snowspeeder battle on hoth and the speederbike chase on endor. THAT would be an improvement.

  • @DOSIsForLovers

    No, it will not just be pod racing. That is only one part of the experience.

  • i want that poster!

  • @rachaelsarobot dont worry it will be in ur heart forever
