[Fun] Should they keep Jenifer Lewis (crazy hair lady) in Star Tours II?

[drnilescrane]

I don't know about you guys, but one of my favorite parts of Star Tours is the 80's kitsch, especially crazy hair lady herself!

I was reminded of this when I saw the photos of the Princess and the Frog premiere featuring Jenifer Lewis, the voice of Mama Odie:

So, she's still with the company and acting!

Considering for AA minute thAAt today's flight AAttendAAnts AAre likely to be the sAAme ones who flew with you in 1987, I think Disney should respect the crAAzy hairdo AAnd get Jenifer to come bAAck AAnd do the video AAgain for StAAr Tours II. WhAAt do you think?

The lady on the television displays as you waited before boarding? That would actually be cool, I still like that 80s look on her haha.

The very one - complete with the overenunciation! Compare that one to the [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kxHEKqRaLQM"]Japanese one[/ame] (so unauthoritative she seems to be there only for eye candy before you board) or the [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hAm4mT0G_7k"]French one[/ame] (there to remind you that your presence is an imposition on the ride operators and you would be more appreciated somewhere else)

Yeah ours is pimp.

Haha, that'd be cool if they brought her back.

It would certainly be a nice touch to bring her back to do the safety video, and I wouldn't imagine it would take that much to get her back. -all for it-

She voiced Mama Odie?

That makes me so happy! She's still with Disney! She must reprise her role for Star Tours II!

Why not just keep our video the way it is?

Re: Should they keep Jenifer Lewis (crazy hair lady) in Star Tours II?

that's like one of my favorite things about the ride!
they should either keep the same video or just keep the hair the same

Re: Should they keep Jenifer Lewis (crazy hair lady) in Star Tours II?

i think its great. my guess is that they would at least replace it with a different intro and probably do it in high definition, which would probably require a re-film (depending on the integrity of the original source)...

but yeah, if any change will occur, i think that keeping the SAME EXACT look would be awesome

Don't just bring her back. Bring all of her.

Re: Should they keep Jenifer Lewis (crazy hair lady) in Star Tours II?

You gotta keep her, man. She is a part of the video, and she fits it just perfect. I don't think there really is no need at all to replace her. In fact, just keep it. Even if the ride film does change and includes scenes from the prequel trilogy, I see no reason at all why it has to change period. It's perfect the way it is.

Re: Should they keep Jenifer Lewis (crazy hair lady) in Star Tours II?

If it's a tradition to keep something treasured from a show when it's replaced, I don't see why Disney can't tap her for the ST2 safety spiel or at the very least give whoever is doing it the hair we all know and love. I hate to say it but when I think of ST the first thing that comes to mind is that hair. :lol:

here's the video for those of us who want to rewatch it

I call her the Eyebrow Woman. Seriously, watch her eyebrows during that video. It's like they're going to leap right off her face and keep doing the spiel all by themselves!

Re: Should they keep Jenifer Lewis (crazy hair lady) in Star Tours II?

On behalf of Star Tours CMs, I really hope they do bring her back. Watching guests reaction to her hair is one of the many small joys of Tours. )

I swear I was just about to comment on that. Who cares about her hair, her eyebrows dance!

Re: Should they keep Jenifer Lewis (crazy hair lady) in Star Tours II?

It would be cool to bring her back so that some of the old Star Tours is still there.

Re: Should they keep Jenifer Lewis (crazy hair lady) in Star Tours II?

To be honest, I really like that video and I think they should keep it instead of do a new one. It's a bit dated, but I like that. You also have to admit that her hairdo is pretty awesome. Her eyebrows are another thing... )
