The new flight will, I'm sure, be exciting for a while, but then what...?

Originally Posted By CuriouserConstance I love Star Wars. Well, I use to love Star Wars.

I think that's the problem, and what will be the problem with anything they improve upon with Star Tours. It'll be neat a time or two, then it'll go back to same old Star Wars.

But it's been YEARS since I've seen any of the movies. Like you say, it feels more like a "fond memory". Hopefully, though, the change will refresh it and make it a little more exciting - and I have long enough between trips that it shouldn't become stale for me for a while...

So ST hits a target audience that is a Disney specialty. I'm hoping for more thrills with the update, and really do hope that there are a variety of missions.

Originally Posted By tashajilek ^^^ Thats tough. I have seen kids love POC and HM and then kids who have came off crying because they were scared. Cant please everyone. ST doesnt feel much like starwars anyways aside from the line up. Captain rex isnt a character from SW and the rest of the ride you are basically just flying around.
Originally Posted By Moondoggie I agree, Dr. Hans. Personally though I wouldn't even mind if they gave the heave-ho to the attraction period. It's run its course, IMO. No one wanted to see ATIS hang around (except me), and when one mentions a revamping of that attraction we hear about how Walt wanted things to change. ST has been around a LONG time, and upgrading it or whatever isn't going to change much for me personally. I guess if it MUST stay though, let's revamp the characters, and maybe even see a sci fi flick developed that is Disney(!) and tie it into that. I loved Star Wars when it first came out as much as anyone, but it's time to move on from that theme IMO. I know most won't agree with me, but I'd like to see something fresh in that corner of T'land.
