Where did you read this?

I know @marni1971 most recent layout allowed for Star Tours access, but I thought that was far from official. Is that what you are referring to? I think he said it was based on a dream. However, it could work.
I hope they can keep Star Tours. I ride it 4 or 5 times each visit, even if I just visit for a day. I only rode it 3 times last January because the Jakku sequence was not random.
I just don't think people appreciate that a C3-PO AA is piloting the ship. How cool is that! Sometimes I just watch the AA.

Martin drew up a concept that made it possible. I'm not sure where that post is now. But it looked solid.

Yes that is what I'm alluding to. I assumed him saying it was a dream was his way of not getting himself in trouble. If you read his next few posts, somebody wrote that they would hate to see muppets cut off and ST connected to SWL and he replied, "get used to it." Sometimes you gotta read between the lines. I may have misunderstood but it seems totally plausible.

I hope you are right, but I am not holding my breath. Especially, when it seems ST in DL is destined for an overlay since Tomorrowland is far from the new land.

But maybe used for a different attraction....
Yes, that's what I've said.
Though I'd give it five or six years at the very least.

I'd imagine a year or two after.So about the time SWL will open?

No i meant that it is as plausible based on your idea that buildings and things could be removed so there could potentially be a direct path to star tours from Star Wars land.
There will be a direct path (with curves under the tunnel)
It will go from Star Tours in a straight line to the "tunnel". It will run right through where the skyscraper tower backdrops are today and down the centre of what was New York Street.
Basically the forced perspective skyscrapers will go to open up a wide, straight boulevard.

When I said buildings were moving that's what I meant. You explained that beautifully and I can't wait to see the finished product. Thanks for sharing.

I disagree. Seeing as ST is on the opposite side of Muppet Courtyard than where SWL is planned to be, and that DHS's SWL will probably be a carbon copy of DLR's version, (which would REALLY need it's ST moved) I think there is a fighting chance that ST will be moved.

Per all insider reports, ST stays as is, until SWE opens, and then at some point post that, it will get rethemed to some other ride. Not surprising as the Falcon ride to me sort of replaces ST.

That is just speculation, there is no rumors of it moving and none of our insiders have indicted that it is moving.

Just because no insiders have confirmed it, I'm not allowed to speculate and entertain logic? k...

You can speculate all you want, which is fine, but you were disagreeing with my statement "There is NO indication that Star Tours will be moved to Star Wars Land", which is correct, there is currently nothing that indicates it's moving.
It's sort of like the Iron Man going into the DL ST rumor. Lots of speculation about it because in some ways it makes sense, but there is no evidence that it's actually being considered.

You've got the definitions of indication and evidence wrong. Logic is indicating and acting as evidence that ST will be moved. It may not be the most sound evidence, and it definitley isn't as sound as an insider confirming, but it is evidence nonetheless.
