As a puppetry driven film, it aged much more gracefully then either Philharmagic or Tough to be a Bug. I'm shocked that the Coco addition to Philharmagic didn't become a bigger project to reanimate the whole thing, it's so jarring to see an early 2000s CG character interacting with a modern...
They've done some "Classic characters go to Batuu" stories already, biggest one I can think is a Thrawn and Vader novel that places their first meeting on Batuu during the Clone Wars while he was still Anakin and having to go back there again during the Imperial era. Just do a "Tales from...

Nature documentaries are not marketable IP. Nobody was riding the Jungle Cruise and going "Look, it's the famous and marketable character The African Lion from Disney's The African Lion". Hell, the ride is most often described as an unlicensed adaptation of The African Queen because of the tramp...
Even with the updates coming to Falcon, Star Tours is still too valuable to keep as a "All the classic familiar Star Wars characters and locations" thing. I feel like they'd sooner relocate it to Galaxy's Edge then get rid of it entirely and they'd probably see it as worth the investment versus...
Newt was legitimately cancelled because they recognized the Rio similarities and Antz exists because Jeffrey Katzenberg actually asked John Lasseter what his post-Toy Story plans were and rushed a clone to market.
