Who else would like Star Tours Classic?

[Zanadros]

I was on Star Tours for the umpteenth time and still would prefer to ride the original movie. There's just something about the new ones that aren't as fun. They're not cohesive and it feels like the motion effects are not as pronounced.
I think it would be fun to revert one of the star speeders back to the original Star Tours for those of us who preferred that version of the ride. Do you think it would be possible?

I really think our pilot Rex made that ride, C-3PO is great and all but his lines are just not as iconic.

This is exactly how I feel. Star Tours 2.0 is great. Especially the ending on Naboo. But without Captain Rex it really does feel like it’s missing something.

I for

Star Tours Classic
,long with Captain Rex !

[merlinjones]

Count me in! Bring back the original iconic journey (upgraded) along with Pee Wee/Rex. And move it to the remaining attraction pad in Star Wars Land.

I’m in; I find the randomization gimmick jarring. Currently (since it is themed to TROS), it avoids this problem, but it’s only temporary.

What if the original star tours returns to 2 simulators and the other 2 a removed. Star tours 2.0 opens up in star wars land where it belongs and the real estate from those 2 removed simulators + the star tours shop could be a huge chunk of real estate for a new ride in tomorrowland.

I actually don't miss the old version at this point. I would like however for them to get a little more innovative with Star Tours. The new TROS story i nice as it flows together really good and ties into a movie. A lot of times the normal scenes don't make any sense and are just mashups. I would like them to film multiple story lines you could get instead of copy and paste scenes from different movies. An easy thing to do would be to come up with 4 different pilots for the different simulators and give them 2-4 different story lines. I tihnk that would be an easy thing to do and cheap!

[SkunkID]

The funny/sad thing is, with just some reformating of the original film, you could make one of the shows the original star tours. The biggest issue would just be getting rex back, which, I don't think would happen. I'd think they would just come up with a means for 3PO to be hidden away, and just have rex appear as a 3D image.

Perhaps add a second "drop screen" behind the first, and captain Rex shows would have the first go down but the second stay up, with an image of him and the normal screen visuals appearing rear projected.

I know this is probably your first flight and it's... mine too.

I was literally just saying this to a friend of mine as much as I enjoyed my last trip this past Sunday I still think the original voyage with Rex and the trench run etc. was so much more enjoyable, no 3D glasses which also made it better because your peripheral vision wasn't distorted so you could feel more part of a team with your fellow passengers etc. The storyline was far more cohesive as well now it's like " Light speed.....wooomp we are in a battle oh no! then whoosh light speed again....wooomp another ( you guessed it battle!) repeat.

I don't mind the new version, but Rex was much funnier. I wish they would bring him back.

[Eagleman]

REX ....was a big part of the show

[GwenRowan]

interesting...
I thought some of the motion effects were more realistic but
have been on Star Tours a few times when the "jump' to hyperspace was dull

I completely agree with you on story... the new set up is a disjointed collection of cuts from movies

the original Star Tours had an effect of drawing you into the story more and without the attempted personal touch of picking someone from the passenger list to make a "rebel spy"
to me, that effect wastes time we could be spending on the adventure and really, only vaguely amuses those who do not know the "spy"

it's like when the people in the grocery store have been told to make a personal connection with shoppers and instead of a clean well stocked store with easy to find prices and short check out lines, they chat you up in a really lame way.... trying for a.... personal touch....
as some young ones complain, like Jedi training academy, it means, everyone else, was not mentioned/chosen..
though with long "agenda" JTA, that might be a blessing

I wondered it it was because Star Tours was new that I remember it being more effective
but them Soaring went global and I realized, our experiences were in the hands of people who are less sensitive to effects and timing...

throw a lot of stuff at the guests and make it LOUD

throwing us around a lot, is not necessarily more immersive

Peter pan slams the vehicle against the wall and does a couple whip-lash stops
TSM throws us side to side (meaning friends with back problems can't ride anymore)
even the Tiki room is so loud I use ear plugs and have over heard people complain

so a slap dash Star Tours that is not as evocative as earlier versions.... is no surprise
still fun, but not as immersive as the timing in earlier versions

the entry is not as nice either
the robot scanning guests is loud and annoying, and yelling "move along" at people who would rather move along but are standing in line... does not add to the interest or enjoyment

there is a new abrasiveness that is a match for the character yelling on smugglers run, the Imperial rant from the stage in GE...
the "I dont't know what to do" from JTA... it is interesting to watch the faces of the audience... they are not enjoying it...

As much as I loved the original, I'd rather there be something new there as opposed to a 33 year old ride I've been on a million times.

[campclam]

I am so tired of the majority of trips on Star Tours being the sequel trilogy. It needs to go back to being truly randomized scenes. I love the prequel and original trilogy destinations.

Funny - I go to Disneyland precisely to see (up to) 66-year old rides I've been on a million times. Vive la difference!

[Eagleman]

I still for

Star Tours Classic and bringing back REX

[LangenFox]

I still miss riding the original Star Wars 1.0 (1987). I grew up riding the classic Star Wars with it's 'lived-in' grim and well detailed queue unlike the current one that is clean and less detailed.

I always prefer the classic Star Tours, I wish I can ride it now.

There's a difference between being on old rides that still function, in the same spot they've always been and resurrecting an old ride to put in a brand new land.
