    Summer of 2000 They were in use while we were on our honeymoon. And, as vbdad mentioned above, they are used when Star Wars Weekends are going on.

    It is nowhere near the stomach turning that Body Wars was ( for whatever reason as they use the saem ride system) -- if you request to sit in the middle seats of the front row-- trust me it takes about 80% of the ride motion out -- my wife has to do this and it really works -- avoid at all costs back and corners

The Star Tours queue is special for me as well, being a big Star Wars fan, walking through the queue really makes you feel like part of it. Muppets 3D show queue is more like a mini show before the actual show, which is fun to watch. The Walt Disney Experience, where you get to see all the mini models and different bits of information is really cool, if you class that as the queue before the show. My favourite has to be Star Tours though.

    Not some elaborate over the top set piece like TOT, but effective in getting the point across and setting the stage for the ride.

    It was the Body Wars ride that ruined the rest of the day for me once! Then after being on another ride at Busch Gardens, i realized simulated rides like Body Wars and I dont go together too well. I may try Star Tours now, and sit exactly where u said this Friday
