All the adversity I've had in my life, all my troubles and obstacles, have strengthened me...You may not realize it when it happens, but a kick in the teeth may be the best thing in the world for you.

Star Tours 2 update


The Disney Parks Blog recently released some pictures from April of 
2009 when presumably the preride video was recorded. The pictures show 
C-3PO and other Star Tours workers preparing the Starspeeder 1000 for 
the upcoming trip.


Anthony Daniels was brought in to perform the scenes as C-3PO


Disney has previously released information about the new backstory of 
the ride. It will take place between Episodes III and IV. With this 
new timeline, we get an older version of the Starspeeder, the 
Starspeeder 1000. Also, since it was Rex's first flight and was still 
getting used to his programming, we get a new pilot, Ace.

We've also learned of a new droid, Aly San San, voiced by Allison Janney, who will presumably be the new flight attendant droid in the preboard informational video.



The other big news is the the new ride will have 54 different 
variations. With different destinations, and different beginnings, 
middles, and ends, it will truely be a different ride every time.

And of course, just like everything nowadays, the new ride will be in 
3-D.

While I don't necessarily think the ride needs to be in 3-D, I love 
that there are multiple variations and destinations, and the new 
droids look awesome. I can't wait for Star Tours 2 to open and 
definately plan on being there for the opening at Disneyland.
