StarSpeeder 1000
Edit
Endorexpress.net has a hi-res detail showing that the vehicle is a StarSpeeder 1000, and not the 3000. -- Kaal 23:48, September 15, 2009 (UTC)
- I have yet to see proper attribution for that image. -- Darth Culator (Talk) 00:36, September 16, 2009 (UTC)
- Not to mention the official SW.com site states it is a 3000. We all know errors are made all the time there, but I'll take SW.com stating it's a Starspeede 3000 over an unofficial site's claim that it's a 1000. - JMAS Hey, it's me! 01:16, September 16, 2009 (UTC)
- Endorexpress' pic seems not to have been upscaled, but I wonder where they get it. Well, I understand and agree that it's not an 'official' info for now. -- Kaal 12:01, September 16, 2009 (UTC)
- According to one of the contributors to EndorExpress, that image was provided to them by Disney. The new link that was just added to this page is to another site who got it the same way. I think it's okay to use the concept, as long as it's tagged as ambiguous or still in production. --JMM 18:18, November 19, 2009 (UTC)
Concept art
Edit
About midway down the page on this link is some photos of concept art for Star Tours II. It shows a model of the Starspeeder 1000, and some concept art of a droid resembling an RX-unit. If anyone thinks that they can use this to help the article, go ahead!http://micechat.com/forums/blogs/dateline-disneyland/1305-holidays-here-california-adventure-construction-fighting-flu-more.html Dr. Kermit(Complain.) 03:05, December 4, 2009 (UTC)
Rename
Edit
Official name for the new version is now Star Tours: The Adventures Continue. A move should probably be initiated in response. --FigmentJedi 01:39, August 16, 2010 (UTC)
- I'm not sure we really know this is the name of the ride. "The Adventures Continue" could just be their slogan for advertising the ride. Until someone actually says that's a title, I'd say leave it as is. --JMM 03:15, August 16, 2010 (UTC)
Ace
Edit
I feel bad that Ace is gonna replace Rex. Angie Y. 21:20, September 25, 2010 (UTC)
54?
Edit
Are there still going to be 54 destinations or did they chop it down? Angie Y. 00:52, April 18, 2011 (UTC)
No, it's six destinations, but 54 combinations involving those six. --FigmentJedi 00:31, April 27, 2011 (UTC)
Non-Canonical?
Edit
So the first reports of the ride are coming in from various sources, and it seems the ride does not take place in main continuity. One person described a battle of Coruscant ROTS section immediately followed by a Battle of Hoth section. Sure, you could say 'that was a SECOND battle of Coruscant, with old ships for some convoluted reason' But find a way to make this work; you fly next to Anakin's pod racer. and in the beginning, there's a chance of encountering Darth Vader. That is completely unfixably anachronistic. I think it's time to give up on saying this takes place in between films (although it could have worked, dammit) and consider it completely non-canon. --Littleloup 22:05, May 16, 2011 (UTC)
- I think the way to look at this ride as far as canon goes is the same way we look at the different video games. Something LIKE this happened, but there's no specific official version. The Hoth and Coruscant stuff is definitely a problem, but Anakin's podracer could be being piloted by anyone. :) And hey, the first Star Tours is canon despite "Death Star III". So it's unlikely this new ride is canon but not impossible. --JMM 12:32, May 17, 2011 (UTC)
Opening crawl
Edit
I captured the opening crawl from Disney's webcast of the grand opening. It reveals a couple of backstory plot points around the founding of the company and its possible ties to the Rebellion -- and how Threepio and Artoo came to be involved. Would this be an appropriate addition to the page? Powers 14:55, May 20, 2011 (UTC)
- That would definitely appropriate. Maybe the entire crawl could be added the same way it's on some film and video game pages. Maybe adding a note that the crawl was from the grand opening, since it's not part of the attraction. A link to a source would be nice, but since it was just shown online a short time ago, I'm sure it's not out there yet. --JMM 15:21, May 20, 2011 (UTC)
54 Combinations
Edit
It seems to me that Disney doesn't really have 54 seperate videos of Star Tours to show, rather they only have 11 (2 beginnings, 6 planets, and 3 messages). Is it possible that during the ride, a computer might randomly choose the segments throughout the ride? If this is true then it may or won't ever be possible to see all 54 combinations, ever. Since there aren't really 54 videos recorded, only 54 POSSIBLE combinations, which means that since everything is random on which destinations are choosed, some combinations might never be shown or seen, although they are possible. However this is just my theory. 24.199.22.34 22:00, May 24, 2011 (UTC)
- If the sequence randomizer works anything like an mp3 playlist, probability states they should have shown the 54th combination sometime near the end of the first week of the ride's run, though this may have been accomplished sooner depending on the actual algorithm. Never mind the other 34 thousand chances to run through the combinations it will have in its first year. DD97Which bear is best? 05:06, December 9, 2011 (UTC)
