message: I'm going to restore the section detailing the shaking during the ride. That has always been there. It isn't a product of old age. The reason it was included in the article was to explain the shaking on the actual ride in relation to the shaking experience on ships in the actual films. The ride is designed to replicate Star Wars spaceflight after all! :) The Wookieepedian 04:11, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I just didn't think it really belonged there. Some of that shaking is due to age, though. I thought that was the shaking that was being referred to, but there is shaking that is programmed. I believe that is what is what explained in the article, then. --Lyght 04:21, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yep. The designers of the ride apparently designed it to specifically simulate Star Wars spaceflight. The Wookieepedian 04:42, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

message: Anybody has heard any news on this I think its much needed
:Lucas mentioned at Celebration III that a Star Tours II is in development. That's conformation enough, methinks, so I will add that to this article. :) The Wookieepedian 01:03, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

message: There is a section concerning Canon but it dosnt actually say whether it is or not.
A while ago, I put "Some fans just don't consider it canon." Why was that deleted? -EG
"R2-D2's presence on board the Star Tours StarSpeeder 3000 precludes the possibility of this being any other Death Star's destruction, as his whereabouts are accounted for at the Death Star explosions of the Battle of Yavin, Battle of Endor, and the prototype's destruction in the Maw." In regards to canon, this quote means absolutely nothing. It assumes that there is only one droid designated R2-D2. This implies that, in the entire galaxy, there can be only 260 R2-type astromech droids. That's hardly practical, economically speaking.--Anonymous 13:49, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

message: Is there any verifiable information that the new voice is NOT Reubens'? I got on the ride three times last week a the MGM park in Fla and it really, really sounded like ol'Paul to me. Smylere Snape 21:09, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Whatever happened to Five?  I've been to Disneyland often and, through the last time I was there (5 years ago), the pilot was Five.  Then I went to Disneyworld two years ago and it was Rex.  Then I went to Disneyland for the 50th anniversary and that was Rex, too.  What happened?
:The pilot has always been RX-24 (Rex). If this "Five" you are referring to is the character from the Short Circuit movies, when I was little I thought they were the same, but it has always been Rex. If you want proof, look at the Star Tours poster on the main page of this article. It is from 1987 (or possibly 1986 to help promote it, I'm not sure) and Rex is right there on the poster along with the StarSpeeder 3000, R2-D2 and C-3PO. --Lyght 23:42, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

message: Has anyone ever thought this is a little strange? How Rex says, "Lightspeed to Endor!" and then jumps into hyperspace? Yes, Rex is a little f-ed up as a character, but could this be a goof on the Imagineers' part? If the ride indeed starts on Earth, which would make a lot more sense as that is where you boarded from, it would take a lot more than the speed of light to get you to "a galaxy far, far away." Also, if I'm not mistaken, aren't planets in the Star Wars galaxy usually as far as tens of thousands of lightyears away from each other?
This always kinda bugged me. I guess "Hyperspace to Endor!" just doesn't sound as exciting, lol. --Lyght 23:41, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

message: "4 degrees of freedom (roll, pitch, yaw, x, y, and z(heave))."
That seems to be 6 degrees to me. Something doesn't add up. Also heave should not be the only one of x/y/z named (surge and sway are the other two). TheHYPO (talk) 15:15, 29 November 2008 (UTC)

message: The StarSpeeder 3000 redirect currently goes to List of Star Wars spacecraft, which doesn't mention the StarSpeeder.  I'm assuming that at one time it did, but was removed since (as far as I know), the StarSpeeder wasn't mentioned in the six films.  Either it should be mentioned in that article, or the redirect changed to point to this article. -- Hawaiian717 (talk) 19:10, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

message: After dealing with a tag-happy bot that branded practically every movie-themed attraction and theme park article, it looks like there is a question regarding whether or not this article should indeed fall under the scope of the Films WikiProject. While a major component of the attraction is indeed its ride-film, said component is more of a special effect than anything. However, said special effect is indeed a motion picture by any definition of the term. I wanted to see what the other editors thought. So, the question is this: Does Star Tours (and, potentially, any other Disney attraction with a film component, including 3-D movies like Mickey's PhilharMagic) fall under the scope of a cinema WikiProject? I'm also asking this same question of the Films WikiProject, to see what they think. --McDoobAU93 (talk) 14:41, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

message: This article seems to indicate that the ride, which was originally intended to be based off of the movie "The Black Hole," was redlighted initially because of the unpopularity of the movie. It received mixed reviews from critics, in addition to a few notable praising reviews from significant sources, made a net profit of around 10 million, and won two academy awards. While it may not have been as successful as desired, nothing I have seen so far has indicated it was an unpopular movie, in general. It might be more accurate to change the wording of the article to better reflect the hesitancy to invest in a project based off something as commercially risky as a movie such as "The Black Hole" rather than to outright say that it was unpopular and they chose not to follow through for that reason. It might leave others, as it did myself, with the unfounded opinion that it was an unquestioningly bad movie. I had to view other sources to ascertain that it was indeed not such a movie.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.74.102.241 (talk) 01:27, 25 December 2011 (UTC)

message: I rode the original Star Tours at Anaheim in 1987. The Big Deal about it in magazine articles was how easy and (relatively) inexpensive the ride would be to change or even convert into a totally different theme. Change the film, change the script, change the motion programming = new ride. I was disappointed that with four simulators the ride didn't have four different "tours", should have been "Star Tour" since there was really only one "trip" available. From searching the WWW it appears as if Disney made no changes at all in 23 years of Star Tours operation at Anaheim. So much for the ease of giving the ride makeovers to keep the experience fresh. At least the "prequel" has 54 slightly different ride experiences. Bizzybody (talk) 22:21, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
