I loved this episode, Star Tours holds a special place in my heart especially the original version because my dad and I used to ride the ride all the time. Great episode!
My mom rode Star Tours on opening day while I was stuck in junior high, and I hated her for it. But then I got to ride Toy Story Mania during a soft opening when I became a CM. So ... there. Really showed her.
Never get rid of your editing aesthetic!! I honestly feel a wave of nostalgia every video! Your content continues to make me happy!
3:50 “the ultimate Star Wars adventure” and then Star Wars land happened
I hope this Star Tours continues flights, even after a Galaxies' Edge opens its doors to us. The force is strong with Star Tours.
Just discovered your channel and really enjoy it. I love the amount of effort with the commercial breaks and vintage Disney commercials, some of them I strongly remember. Each video feels like a nostalgic trip to my childhood.
Thanks for another stunning history lesson
Hey @matterhornmatt I love your work man! Your probably the most under appreciated Disney RUclipsr. Your work is awesome and a lot more people need to be made aware of your work. Take care and keep it up!
All of that extra ride footage needs to be on a Blu-ray!
As a socal native, I remember going to Star Tours opening week. I cant believe just how long ago it was now. I dont mind the updated version of it, but nothing beats the original
I loved Rex. He was my favorite Disneyland character. I am glad he still makes cameos, but I miss him.
See you around, Kid...
I absolutely love Star Tours! I first rode the original Star Tours back at Disney MGM Studios (now Hollywood Studios) when I was 6 years old. 8 years later, I rode The Adventure Continues when I was 14 years old. I loved both the old and new ones.
Love these videos keep up the good work
I just want to point out that since they added the Last Jedi sequence, they aren't really randomizing the locations visited now. You always get the Force Awakens and Last Jedi sequences now. The opening scene does change between Darth Vader and Kylo Ren, and the middle hologram message part is still randomized -- but no more trips to Tattooine, Corusant, Hoth, Naboo, or Kashyyk!!!
They've started using the other sequences now, in Paris at least. But yeah I wasn't a fan of it. I get that they want to advertise their films but when they had originally hyped the attraction as being different every time it doesn't make much sense.
at Disneyland, it no longer goes anywhere else, which was a real disappointment. I'm hoping they bring back the random places!!
I bet they will, I mean it's at least *understandable* that they'd try to hype their latest movies (which I've honestly liked all of them so far, to varying degrees), but they should probably switch it back soon. Also, it'd be helpful to know how long they've had it primarily Sequel Trilogy dominant, so I could have made an informed comment xD haha
Looking at the original Star Tours sequences brought a tear to my eye. Especially recalling Paul Reuben's voice as Rex. "Light speed to Endor!" Cheesy but fun 😅
I remember riding the Star Tours at Disney world Florida before the revamp
Oh man I miss the original version and the randomized planets version so much at Disneyland! Preferably the randomized version though, I rode that ride so much when they had it like that.
Wonderful video great editing and I love how in-depth you go please keep up the great work!!!!
This footage rocks. May the force be with you. I like this ride very much even though I recommended it to my 2⃣friends who are traveling separately in 2023.
Star Tours is my second favorite ride in Disneyland. I love looking at the posters and all of the other cool stuff in the queue and at the exit. I haven't been on the new version yet, but I'm looking forward to riding it on my next trip
Wouldn't it be cool if there was a scene on Mustafar where you could see Obi Wan and Anakin fight in the background?
Whoa! Should I be worried that I'm having flashbacks to the 80s? 🙂
I love this episode
I even subscribed to your channel and turned on the notification bell.
Has anyone else realized this is supposed to take place between episodes 3 and 4, but they decide to throw in adventures from episodes 7 and 8. Great planning Disney!
Awesome video. Star Tours has been one of my most favorite rides of all time in any park. I got to experience both iterations as a kid and now as an adult. I still have my old Starspeeder 3000 toy in my room and just recently I bought the giant Starspeeder 1000 toy.
Love how you canonically address the battle correctly labeling the fighters as new republic and imperial remnant, well done lmao
I wish I had one of those flight simulators like the ones used for star tours
huge star tours fan
thank you for uploading
R2, lightspeed to Historyland!!!
My family members are all huge Star Wars nerds, all excepting my sister. Out of all of us, that particular sister is the only one out of all of us who ended up as the spy on Star Tours. TWICE!
Mine too
I remember and rode it on the last day in WDW.
I remember going to Disneyland and, each time, riding Star Tours. Truly was a great ride, however dated. I'm optimistic with where Disney is taking things (though still cautious because, well, it's Disney) as I've enjoyed all of the stuff coming out so far :)
Lovely video! Great information and wonderful editing!
Never went on Star Tours. I assume it was because i heard it jolted around a lot. Besides there was Indy's stunt show to see.
I remember riding Star Tours the first week or so of it opening. I might be mistaken but I seem to remember this as one of the first attractions at DL that had some applied dirt and damage to the theming to make it seem used and more realistic. It was a noticeable difference to the usual pristine feel of Disneyland theming. I also remember people complaining of motion sickness the first couple of months. They adjusted and the motion until number of complaints went way down.
I went on Star Tours Adventure Continues a couple of weeks after it opened. 70 minute wait line...
The irony of "it will be around for years to come" is that there is a fair chance that Star Tours - The Adventures Continue will close following the opening of Galaxy's Edge. While nobody is certain, it could be rethemed to Marvel or something else. Disney may not want a Star Wars attraction that is outside the land.
michaelthebishop they have winnine the pooh in critter country when it should be fantasyland. star tours will be fine especially since galaxy's edge is based on the new films while star tours AC is based on all the movies
I’m interested to know why you believe that Winnie The Pooh should be in Fantasyland?
michaelthebishop
1) It's in fantasyland in MK, Tokyo, HK, and Shanghai
2)The story of Critter Country takes place in a forest near New Orleans, to help seamlessly blend the area of New Orleans Square with the lore of song of the south. Winnie the pooh takes place in England and doesn't thematically fit in with the area.
3) By placing the ride in critter country they dropped two of the most important aspect of Winnie the pooh, Christopher Robin and the book, Christopher Robin is one of the most important characters in the story as it is his story of him growing up with his stuffed animals and the whole time the story is going on they reference the fact that they're in a book (the climax of the third act is the narrator tilting the book so Tigger can get out of the tree)
4) the only reason the built it in critter country was because there was no room to build a gift shop in Fantasyland
Wow. I didn't actually expect to learn something from the reply. I'm impressed and did not realize that. But I think another part of it was Disney didn't want to wipe Mr Toad's Wild Ride off the map everywhere. But I now certainly see where you're coming from.
When you finally decide to do a new Historyland episode (which I hope soon consindering you haven't done any since feburary of 2019, that's almost TWO YEARS AGO), do Body Wars, Star Tours' sister ride, at the now defunct Wonders of Life pavillion at Epcot.
During my trips to Walt Disney World, I'd ride the original Star Tours 2 to 3 times per vacation...and I NEVER secured the seatbelt! The first few times, the ride started before I figured it out. Fortunately, being overweight meant I was literally WEDGED IN, & never felt like I'd be thrown from my seat.
I went on Star Tours 10 times over 2 days at DHS last week - 8 out of the 10 were the same exact combination - Still messing with the TLJ scenes.
Now if only they could add the original ride to the mix it would be better lol. Haven't got the chance to ride the new version yet but I probably will hate it because of the 3d glasses take. I wear glasses already not to mention I can only see out of one eye dosnt help much with 3d aspects.
I remember the premier in 1987 -- it was an all night party with the park opened across two days.
I rode Star Tours for the first time a month ago in Paris and I was so impressed! The queue is gorgeous and when i went a second time I had a fully different story! It really has become one of my favourite rides in the park!
Hey what’s your favorite destination in star tours 2 mine is Tatooine because I love pod racing
I don't feel good but boy this v was fun :) rthx for making me feel better for a while.
Huh, didn't know the new one was randomised. I just got all stuff from the new movies and thought that was what the ride was all the time.
This was when Disneyland stopped being pure Disney. It probably had to happen, but it was an end of an era.
If they have that many sequences I don't see why one of them can't be the original Star Tours.
The "Star Tours" timeline makes no sense. Who cares if Hoth is in it, since we also visit Coruscant during the events of "Revenge of the Sith?" and Naboo during "Phantom Menace"? And now there's Jakku and Crait? It doesn't make sense. Star Tours should add Scarif and Kessel, since both fit the purported timeline much better and would be thrilling additions to the ride to boot.
it's not supposed to be canon dude.
Universal Studios Hollywood is also doing something similar to their Jurassic Park ride by updating it to the more recent Jurassic World films next year.
A lot of theme park goers have doubts for Star Tours staying for years to come with Galaxy's Edge coming next year, making the ride both redundant and expendable.
I figure that for a while yet, they'll want to keep it around just to provide something with a Star Wars theme for people who are stymied by multi-hour standby lines at the Galaxy's Edge rides. Eventually, they may be tempted to re-theme it to something else, like the Iron Man simulator ride in Hong Kong.
I love your cuts to commercial break, awesome video as usual!
Star Tours is a really good attraction, but it’s not my number one fav.
When are you going to Star Tours' sister ride, Body Wars?
Star tours is and will Always be my fav Disney attreaction
The CGI of the 00's really dates it, when compared to what is possible today. Real footage and miniatures IMO still looks better than CGI, but costs more to do it well
Big Kids Toys this came out in 2011
Still my favorite ride. Just wish there was a non 3d version
Great video Matt good to see the original ride ☺
I love the classic vibe on your videos. It takes me back to my youth when I first went on these rides. Keep up the good work.
Star tours 2019 was the worst ad for Rise of Skywalker. Especially after watching the film on opening day and then going to Disney the next, the new star tours plot was mind numbing
First video I'm seeing of yours and I'm so impressed by the editing! This video was so enjoyable and informative love your work !!
Love your vids man. The classic commercials are a blast. They take me back to when I lived in SoCal. I remember when they used to come on and I would have to get to Disneyland ASAP. Thanks man.
Great episode as always Matt! I rode the original attraction at Disneyland during the 90's so it was really nostalgic hearing about all of that stuff and seeing it again! Thank you for that. I know a lot of people say that The Adventures Continue has too much CGI and that it doesn't make sense with the timeline, but I still enjoy it and think it has one of the best queues on that side of the park!
Thanks for sharing some Star Tours history! I love the original Star Tours! I can’t stand the new one... it doesn’t feel like Star Wars at all. It’s very reminiscent of the prequels which I hate and also are nothing like Star Wars movies lol. I wish the would bring back the original or do another overhaul
When I first rode og star tours it was in disney world and I actually liked body wars more. Although that changed when I was older, rex grew on me and I like star tours more looking back now
star tours opened in 1987 and it's inspired by the original star wars trilogy
I still have my action figure of rex (Rx-24)
I recently interviewed an employ at Disneyland for a documentary for school. He said that there was an underground cafe, he said he used to take breaks there. He is a good friend of ours so he wouldn't lie.
oops, wrong video
Reading Wikipedia?
With Galaxy’s Edge opening I expect Star Tours to close.
Star tours wouldn't close, but be refitted
Hey Matt what’s your problem with Pixar Pier?
The Disneyland Collecter kinda, he just wasn’t serious about it, I want a clear answer on why people don’t like Pixar Pier, for now.
A new paint job isn't going to fix an already mediocre at best land.
Matterhorn Matt but Incredicoaster.
And the new booths.
And the that inside out ride, that wasn’t there before.
Original star tours is better
Hey is that Disney dan doing the intermission voice?
No haha, he's one of my patrons!
I'm sorry, but I really feel like they ruined an amazing ride with the renovation they did. The first time I rode it, I did like the interactive elements, which was cool because I actually was picked as the 'Rebel Spy' for my ride through, complete with an off-guarded picture of myself looking like a doofus, but most other aspects just can't compare to the original in my eyes. The amount of CG used just makes the whole experience more hollow for me.
Great video by the way. I think this channel deserves a lot more attention considering how much work you put into the videos. Can't get enough of the retro-vibe found within the videos.
I feel like this is a direct rip off of Defunctland
How? Him and I have our both unique styles of editing and storytelling.
Matterhorn Matt Just the Title and logo. Feels very derivative after his success.
They're completely different. Historyland is modeled after the retro 80's/90's Disney Channel TV shows (hence the commercials that help structure the videos into different segments), while Kevin does his own thing that's completely different. That's the way it's been since the very first episode of Historyland.
Btw it’s rebel, not Republic.
Cevest_Blirobo This was the Battle of Death Star 3 after return of the Jedi. I think the New Republic was in place. I miss the original. starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Battle_of_Death_Star_III
