To say that Disneyland's old Star Tours ride (which originally opened in the park in 1987) was a little dated doesn't even begin to do it justice. Sure, some of the park's attractions are brought back with an admitted sense of nostalgia attached to them. Occasionally, enough time has passed for them to become kitschy and "cool again." Other times, all it takes is the unexpected death of a pop icon to ...

The new Star Tours attraction that will soon debut at Disneyland adds several layers of 3-D realism to the 1980s-era simulator ride, making the experience less like watching a movie and more like being in the middle of the action. I took a few preview rides Friday at Disneyland on the updated attraction, which offers 54 possible storylines, and I found myself wanting to jump back in line after each ...

The new 3-D version of the Disney theme park ride Star Tours is a quantum leap above the original. Riders will face the unexpected - thousands of different permutations in the story line. The ride's repeat business should be superb. The original 1987 Star Tours ride "was relatively simplistic," says Star Wars creator George Lucas.
