This is a roughly 3-minute lasting ride at Disneyland. It was directed by Dennis Muren, who also worked on the Star Wars films and won many Oscars for his visual effects. But this is also the only Star Wars reference really. The whole thing looks like a journey through the universe, but not as if it really has something to do with the famous franchise. I have no idea why all these actors are credited here. The female voice constantly yelling also gets annoying halfway into the film and keep in mind that this is only 3 minutes. All in all, I recommend this ride to Star wars fans. Everybody else can really give it a pass. i have seen many better rides.

This ride was made in 1987, and therefore is based entirely on the original Trilogy. Anyone who expects anything from the much later added first three episodes obviously can't be very bright. This ride was WAY ahead of its time when it was new, and is still a great ride and lots of fun.As to why there would be no Jedi Knight, Sith Lord or light saber fight, well, this ride is called "Star TOURS." The entire gist of the ride is that you are on a space tour bus. R2D2 is co-pilot, and many of the other original Star Wars characters are throughout the ride which includes the waiting area.REX basically takes the passengers of his ship on a trip around the Death Star almost exactly identical to that of Luke Skywalker in the first Star Wars movie. Anyone who doesn't get that, obviously can't be that big of a Star Wars fan, although you definitely don't need to be a Star Wars fan to enjoy this simlulator.

Star Tours (1987, D: Richard Edlund) A fantastic ride which seems to be just as good every time. The ride does age, as does everything and could do with an upgrade. The projection system for instance is currently a Laserdisc based unit through an LCD system. It needs to be upgraded! But the ride in itself is just as great as ever. The ride is placed in all Disneyland parks, you cannot go to any of them without going on this ride!

Well, without the flight simulator cabin (at EuroDisney), this might not be as good - as it is, it's kind of like being in one of the battles in Star Wars. Can't comment on the dialogue, it was in French, but it's worth seeing if you happen to be there.
