Thanks for posting!

Ha! :lol: Love the Alderaan/safest travel destination joke!!!! :lol: Looks kinda cool, but like someone mentioned in the comments on the blog, I'm afraid of it being too much CGI...like episodes I, II and III.

Looks interesting. Having never seen the movies though, I hope it will still be an enjoyable experience.

Well, I saw whatever one was the original one, from the 70's, on tv once. I don't think I ever saw the other ones. And I never saw any of the latest trilogy...

Well, with the last three, having seen them - if I had never seen them, I know I'm not missing much. I wouldn't recommend anyone to go out and rent them. Of the original three, I like the first two, eternally regret they ever made the third. Those first two are worth it. And this is coming from someone who was giant fan of the first two films when he was a kid! Big fan, but a brutal critic too. :wink: :D

I honestly like the idea of what they are doing with it. Good to see Endor is still in the video. Also it looks like the Starspeeder is still going to be around.

I like Star Trek way more than Star Wars.

Aside from that, I will be sure to link that to my stepdad since he's looking forward to the new updated Star Tours.

I wonder if they will post more of the star tours queue videos between now and then?

It's just a teaser video really. The special effects scenes are clipped from the Special Edition Re-releases of the original films and bits taken from the last three. All they did was add the bits showing the Star Speeder into it. But as for the new ride motion film - I don't think they will give any of that video away before it premieres.
