I've always loved Star Tours and I don't think that Smuggler's Run improved on that concept. I like going to planets I'm familiar with and seeing characters that I love, Smuggler's Run just doesn't deliver on that.
This one was a little tough to choose. I’ve always liked Star Tours and the random factor with the different scenes adds a lot. However, I have to give points to Smugglers Run for putting me into the Millennium Falcon. This immersion- in fact the entire queue- adds so much to the overall experience. And that’s taking into account that Star Tours already has a marvelous, immersive queue that captures the guest fully into the experience.
I chose the falcon. This is strictly based on the queue, pre-show, being able to sit at the chess table, being in the falcon. The rides them self are very similar so for me not much different there. The themeing does it for me.
