Though this is not the most thrilling ride (Tower of Terror and Rockin' Rollar Coaster are much better for thrills)Star Tours is fun. It's a ride simulator, or something like that. It's mild thrill so everyone can enjoy it, even the little 4-year-olds. DON'T GET A FAST PASS! The attraction is just as enjoyable at the line as the actual ride. C-3PO and R2-D2 make a special appearance in the line, arguing as usual. Now the ride. You're a passenger on a StarSpeeder which is taking you to Endor. Your pilot, Rex, is a first-time pilot and messes up by taking the wrong turn. You fly through a hanger and, after much confusion, leave. You enter hyperspace, but fly past Endor. Great. You end up flying through a comet, breaking through ice. You exit the comet and what do know! Star Destroyers. You end up being a part of the battle that's going on between the Rebellion and the Empire. You go through the Death Star trench scene(except Luke is NOT blowing up the Death Star). You finally make it to a Star Tours station, but not without almost crashing. You then leave and get to a souvenirs shop. They have anything you can think of there. Now Star Tours is a little outdated. But it's still enjoyable. When I first went on it I was 8, hated Star Wars, and loved the ride. That's how fun it is. You don't have to be a fun of the saga to enjoy it. It's NOT something to pass by at Disney.

As someone who has worked at Star Tours for the last 4 years, I come to you with knowledge of this attraction. While the ride might not be the prettiest belle on the block, it still packs a punch. Yes, they need to update the hardware from a film projector to a digital DVD projector, yes, maybe the ride content is a little old, but it still draws one of the largest crowds at the Disney/MGM Studios. An average day at Star Tours sees around 18,000 people. that's the size of a small town! it's remarkable how much people still care to experience Star Tours after 12 years at the Studios and 16 years at Disneyland. I want to thank you all who make it possible for Star Tours for almost bring guests to the exotic forest moon of Endor each and every day!

I must say that I was a little surprised to find out that an amusment park ride was listed under IMDB. But, it does use film, so I guess. For those who have never expereinced Star Tours, you are missing out. This is one of the best rides at Disneyland park. Even though there is always a line, it is worth the wait.

You will enjoy this motion simulator ride a lot more if you have seen or are a fan of the Star Wars movies. There's not a lot of you, but I did ride this before I saw the films. I enjoyed it then as well. There are better motion simulator rides out there, but this one probably came first.
