[Fun] How about a Star Tours Holiday (Special) Overlay?

[14 MPH]

Ok, I'm half-serious and half-joking.

Since the ride is now an inter-changable film, why not put an overlay come Christmas time.

Some of you may see where this is going....

They can do it based on the "memorable" Star Wars Holiday Special




Here's the premise:

- We've all been invited by Chewbacca and his family to attend "Life Day" in Kashykk.



- We all board the Starspeeder 1000. It starts off smooth, then of course we run into trouble.



- We have encounter with the Empire (of course)



- Cartoon Boba Fett



- and the most wretched enemy of all......Jefferson Starship



- Luke Skywalker (complete with heavy makeup) gets hold of us on commlink, telling us he's glad we've escaped danger


- Finally, we arrive at our destination, joining up with the rest of the gang in celebration of "Life Day"


And there you have it, Star Tours, the Holiday Special

Heck no! Even George Lucas wanted to destroy every copy in existence if he could.

I'll be looking forward to the Bea Arthur and Art Carney Audio-Animatronic figures.

I'm pretty sure that one of the rules for belonging to this forum was NOT calling for the public tarring and feathering of other members.

....but hey, in case it's not, I'm putting that out there.

I would like more rides that use screens, like ST, TSMM, Captian EO ect.. to have more seasonal stuff. Though for many visitors who come rarely seeing DL in it's normal form is important. It would be nice if they switch the attraction to seasonal variations just for the evenings or during special event parties.

With the way I the ride is now set up, I'm surprised we haven't yet seen "surprise" alternate ride variations. This would be a hoot.

Because George Lucas knows what he's doing. *cough* still bitter about non-special edition blu-rays never being released *cough*

This just about as good as the idea I came up with a few years back giving HM a High School Musical overlay.

Only if they use clips from the Droids and Ewoks cartoons as alternate destinations.

This is the best/worst thing I've heard all day. I actually saw the one and only broadcast of the Star Wars Holiday Special in 1978.

Re: How about a Star Tours Holiday (Special) Overlay?

We'll honestly I'd give this idea and let Seth Mc Farline and Seth Green write the ride...and it would be funny as hell and be a ride MANY people would enjoy because I don't think the ride would be serious it would be spoofing the Star Wars Movies and Christmas Special's too...if done right I grantee it having 3 hour long lines
