R.I.P To legendary actor and voice actor, Paul Reubens. The legendary actor behind Pee Wee Herman and of course, Captain Rex from Star Tours! What a legend he is!
Yes ❤
@@MsDisneylandloverdo you know what gaslight theater own show on Spotify spoof spoofing show's 46 years
I remember walking past a life sized model of Chewbacca as we left the ride entering the gift shop. The lovable "walking carpet" suddenly came alive and hugged a surprised woman right behind us. Chewy was actually a live character in costume, but had stood perfectly still for several minutes to fool the guests.
I’m glad I got to ride the original Start Tours before renovation
As did I.
Me too
I didn't. My first time going to Disneyland was in 2010. Shortly after the update
The original ride was so fun as a kid. But i love how the new version turned out
Me too. The contra was that it was in french. I was :|
5:15 An indoor, dueling Star Wars themed rolling coaster?!! I never knew about this idea, but now I NEED this to happen!!!
I just screamed when I saw Baby Yoda at the beginning. I haven't been on the new version of Star Tours yet, but that's one of my family's favorite rides and going through hyperspeed and the drench was always my favorite parts
Well now that he's handled One Star Wars attraction now it's time for him to handle Smugglers Run and Rise of the resistance
Movies on ride history books documentary about biography book club fun more information on maze's New look like she feels like galya peeva she was still saved Disney company class starts at Disneyland before dark ride Disney world MGM studios Hollywood studios bowl of Walt Disney world full of huors in movie part in the world I want Hippocampus for Christmas stuff on board with different colors of the same place looks like a new ride room history
@@derekllewellyn6663 cool also by this point he has covered the other two attractions I mentioned just go back to the main channel to find the videos since I still don't know how to do links
I want a pretty cool STAR WARS dueling roller coaster that’ll feature two tracks each representing the Light Side and the Dark Side!
Yeah
@@JavaCake it's looks like a new good I love it so much fun making flash back past life look back at movie made into full house in the past flash drive in movie theater in new horizons house since the last time years before New
@@JavaCake like a new ride Disney plus on Disney company class starts Disney world and Disneyland Disney company class and make sure you are bast and I will be there in a few years before New 2018
I was there on the opening 3 day premier of Star Tours at Disneyland! The Park was open for 3 continuous days. One price got you in for all three days as long as you didn't cut off the wristband. The girl I was dating at the time soon after became my wife (yeah, 30+ years ago...). I still have the Star Tours promotional watch they were giving away. I'm awaiting the Smuggler's Run attraction to follow suit and expand on the adventures like Star Tours.
I just recently learned about "Star Tours" because I seen a figure on eBay with a "Star Tours" sticker logo, so I was curious about it and started doing some research on it...💁♂️ I appreciate the history lesson, thanks...👌🏼💯✔
I barely remember the original version, but it still holds such a special place in my heart
I remember riding this over & over the year it came out bc as locals my mom & I Disneyed often. I was 7. It was FANTASTIC, I loved it❤
I was so excited to go on this..obviously not the original version but the updated one. Was not disappointed when we went in October 2019 to Disney World..... It was so good in my opinion, especially being a absolute star wars nerd 🤓
DUDE I LOVE STAR TOURS!!!!!
Buggaman 66 you and me both pal
I will always miss Rex the original pilot of star tours. 😢
Well hes in ona cantina in galaxys edge as a DJ you should check it out
@@jaydenchrist6152 He apperantly occasionally malfunctions and spouts some of his lines from Star Tours
Excellent episode! May the force be with you!
35th anniversary celebration party years happy birthday to my beautiful ride before making maze bank tower of power outage map money made movie maze
I’m a simple man I see Star Tours I click but anyways I’m excited because I’m going to Disney world in 2 weeks and I haven’t been since I was 7 so it’s going to be awesome to go on star tours and Go to galaxys edge😎
RandomBlake
You’re gonna have a great time! I work there at Galaxies edge and between the new Rise of the resistance ride and the area of the BlackSpire outpost it’s fantastic!
Have a great time, tell us all about it afterwards!
Rise of the Resistance is awesome, and Smuggler's Run is pretty good too. Have fun!
Going there in a week!
I guess the Child doesn’t like the holiday special
He is a good boi
Avery the Cuban-American as it should be
There’s a reason the only character to reference life day in the canon had a bounty on him
Even Grogu knows that’s complete shite.
I want to see the history of Fantasmic please.
“A long time ago in a galaxy far far away.”
0:55 Thanks for the shout-out dude.👍🏻
Also, how appropriate that you decided to upload this on the day Star Wars Episode 9: The Rise of Skywalker premieres in theaters.
"subtle cuts that would go largely unnoticed by the average rider."
I think I noticed it because you mentioned it. Mind you when one was in the ride, You wouldn't notice it. It's a testament to the brilliant verisimilitude of the story and ride.
opens big gift under Christmas tree
“Welcome to Theme Park History!” 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Clearly an underappreciated ride given the like counter. LOVE IT!
You should do a video on The Great Movie Ride
🔥🔥
Back when Star Wars made sense
That credit roll is what makes this Star Tours review different than the others on CZcams. Very Creative.
11:20 that sound brought back so many childhood memories😭
Baby Yoda: :D
Fans: [Screaming and throwing money at the screen.]
Disney: ????!??????!?
I love Star Tours! But i gotta admit i do kind of miss the original story with rex. Still such a fun ride and great video!
Have you seen him in the Galaxy's Edge cantina yet?
Phillip Miller yes i have! Im glad they used him rather then just getting rid of him
@@ThomasKyleVideos he's it's pee wee Playhouse TV show documentary about the same place looks good books gaslight theater in new show 40th anniversary celebration party years
@@adeadphish7931 it's Roxy was pee wees playhouse 20th anniversary celebration party years before New Year galya peeva she was new girl i love it so much fun making flash back past life and make sure
No doubt in my mind that this is the greatest ride ever made. What other ride actually has different results every time you ride it? The various possibilities make this an easy return again and again. I actually rode it 7 times in one day and only stopped because my wife was getting motion sickness.
Jesus, Lego Anakin’s eyes at 19:10 on the episode 3 poster are really scary.
Please do these awesome Disney Parks attractions next!
- Space Mountain
- Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin/Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters
- Mission: Space
- Toy Story Mania
- Maelstrom
- Pirates of the Caribbean
- Jungle Cruise (to celebrate the release of Disney’s upcoming Jungle Cruise movie in July 2020)

Captin EO
My family loved the original Star Tours attraction, including my father. One of the best attraction we ever been in! 😁
Maybe do the Desperado roller coaster from the Buffalo Bill's Hotel and Casino at Primm, Nevada?
That’s funny that you mentioned the Desperado coaster because Expedition theme park just did a video about that attraction 😂
@@CloakedHDTV Did not see that coming
Please Do Space Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain, The Great Movie Ride, or America Sings! (As known as Carousel of Progress)!!!!!!! That would be Fantastic!!!
I remember going on this ride in December of 2004. Hopefully, I'll get to see it sometime soon in his new incarnation
wstine79 Maybe you should check it out at Disneyland Park at the Disneyland Resort in California or Disney’s Hollywood Studios at the Walt Disney World in Florida!
This ride isnt going to die off for a very long time. And I’m ok with that
Also can I say that the original Star Tours at WDW made no sense that you enter in the forest of the moon of Endor? Why would you need to take a speeder to it if you’re already walking on it?
Star Tours is one of my favorite attractions at Disneyland. May the force be with you! I was Rebel Spy on the new version of this attraction that was based on Star Wars created by George Lucas 4️⃣ years ago in May. 🎉
It's looks like gaslight theater still available on show gaslight theater before testing into show on 40th anniversary celebration party happy birthday years Disney company class starts at VIP tickets tour guide before New DVD releases on Facebook messenger key magic New dream key new New ride history documentary film 🎥
@@derekllewellyn6663 Really? 👏🏼
Can you maybe do a video on Mission Space? It would be really interesting to hear about Disneys work with NASA. I know that you try to avoid doing multiple Disney videos after each other, but maybe in the future? Love the video!
23:57 wilhelm scream
Skunk Man AAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!
Shrek 4-D ride please
Do the theme park history of 20.000 leagues under the sea at Magic Kingdom
Sadly, we never get to fly the spaceship through the Cantina Bar to hear Bea Arthur sing "One more round, friend."
Mickey's Phillhar Magic!
That opening gets a like on it's own!
Could you cover in your next video "Fantasmic" the show from both Disneyland and Disney World?
3:25 Great Scotland Yard. It's Grease The Movie And Star Trek The Motion Picture My All Time Favourite Paramount Pictures Movies. Thanks A Lot Theme Park History Mate. PS Happy Easter. X
Your videos make my days a little brighter, thank you.
I went on this in Orlando 92 at the age of five. My dad at the time said it was the most incredible thing he had ever seen
* 3 days later we went on Back to the Future and that had changed.
Do Star Tours' sister ride Body Wars!
The what
@@brittanynguyen3794 Body Wars, a now defunct ride that was at Epcot's Wonders of Life pavillion (which had been closed since 2007 except during Food & Wine and Flower Festivals, during those times, it's used as a Convention center). It used the ATLAS simulator Star Tours uses and in the ride, instead of going on a space tour, you go into the lab of Miniaturized Exploration Technologies (MET for short) where you enter a space ship-like sub called the LGS 2050 Body Probe called Bravo 229, being shrunk down and teleported inside the body of a volunteer. The mission is retrieve Dr. Cynthia Lair (played by Elisabeth Shue) who observes how white blood cells destroys a splinter in the index finger of a volunteer. As a result of part of the spinter breaks Dr. Lair is accidently getting sucked into vein and the ship's Captain Braddock (played by Tim Matheson) steers the ship after her traveling through the heart and into the lungs, saving from Dr. Lair from an attacking white blood cell. After she gets onboard (not into the simulator itself but in the cockpit which can be seen on a screen beside the "window"/main screen where you see Braddock and at this point Lair) the ship needs a recharge as a fuel cell got somehow destroyed during the passing through the heart, as the ship (for some reason) needs power in order for the team outside to beam the ship out of the body and resize it. On Lair's suggestion, Captain Braddock steers the probe back to the heart and uses the heartbeat to propel the ship up into the brain where you get inside it. As the ship's power is depleted it gets in contact with a neuron and it's electrical impulse charges the probe. The team beams you out, the ship gets resized back to normal and Mission Control leader (played by Dakin Matthews) congratulates Captain Braddock for spectacular mission and the guests can leave the simulator.
The ride fottage and the queue videos (providing the information on MET, the body probes and the basic mission) were directed by Leonard Nimoy, the guy who played Spock in the StarTrek series, voiced Kida's father in Atlantis: The Lost Empire and the director of Three Men and A Baby.
The ride was rougher compaired to Star Tours, with more turning and twisting which often caused people to throw up by getting motion sick (sometimes combined with people who gets grossed out by body parts and blood, though it didn't bother me when I rode it as a eight year old back in 1991) and tragedy a little girl with a sickness that caused fatal irregular heart beats died as a result of riding the ride (though the ride wasn't to blame). During the first four months as it was Epcot's only thrill ride it got really popular until Star Tours opened at Hollywood Studios (back known as Disney MGM Studios) and stole it's audience. Body Wars lost even more riders when Epcot got their other thrill rides such as Test Track and Mission: Space opened, the queues used to have a 90 minute long wait time but in it's later days the ride was simply a walk-on.
Body Wars along with the rest of Wonders of Life were closed down in 2007 after METLife refused to continue sponsor the pavillion and became seasonal operation. For a long time, the queue stayed and were used as storage during the festivals, while the four simulators were stripped down, probably being used as spare parts for the Star Tours ones at Hollywood Studios. The pavillion will be finally be changing into the Play Pavillion in the on-going renovation of Epcot (though currently halted thanks to The Corona/Covid19 Epidemic).
This is a perfect episode for Life Day! Thanks you, and May The Force be with you, Always
I'm A Huge Star Wars Fan. May The Force Be With You. Thanks Theme Park History Mate. X
I really love star tours❤
Caption EO was the SHIT. I loved seeing MJ do his thing at Disney, it was SO 80s I loved it!
Glorious intro for this one! I salute you, sir!!
Great video, TPH! Always looking forward to your next ride!
I love Star Tours and went there 10 days ago but the store had no ST merch asides from a 40usd mug… all they had was sequel merchandise that you can pretty much find at any department store 🤷🏻♂️. When I got home I bought my ST souvenirs at eBay…
Hey, Theme Park History. I thought it would be cool to see you do a video on Pirates of the Caribbean
One of the best rides!!!
Great ride.
Expedition theme park did this video a week ago and now theme park history 🤣 I love the similar and different takes you do with these videos.
Nothing makes my day better than watching this video with some hot chocolate with me
i loved theme park history
I love this video and it's awesome how you used the Jedi fallen order music
Please make two more videos about the history of Voyage of the Little Mermaid and The Little Mermaid: Ariel’s Undersea Adventure, both attractions inspired by Disney’s 28th animated feature “The Little Mermaid “.
Poor George. If he only knew what the future Disney had in store for his franchise.
