You know what they should do? On April 1st while guest are getting in nice and comfy getting ready to go what ever destination they go to...All of a sudden you hear that Bravo 229 is ready for Deminturization.....What a mind blower that would be......But, then you have C3PO sitting there and it wouldn't make sense...BUT STILL! I'd give to ride a smooth version of Body Wars in the ST Vehicles...

So now Disney will acquire Paramount so they can base an attraction on Downsizing? Disney needs to stop with the synergy!

I still maintain they should move the simulators over to Epcot's WoL pavillion and redo the show. Body Wars for Epcot 2020! Get epcot another E-Ticket quickly.
Epcot already has an E-ticket simulator ride *that makes riders queasy.

I thought the Star Tours ride vehicles were going to get relocated and re-themed into Star Wars-land after it opens as a kind of "pretend transport" between the Rebel and Empire haves of Galaxy's Edge... similar to how now in WDW you enter it on the Endor themed forest area and exit on to the Tatooine desert gift shop
Moving Star Tours was never a plan that any of our insiders have said was on the table. They all pretty much agreed that within one or a few years after SWGEB opened, it would most likely be rethemed.
However, creating an exit corridor that snakes around Muppets and enters Batuu is an idea being considered, though, not likely.
Why is it still in this forum?

uhhh? not really what I said, and exactly what I said, soooo? Thanks??
You said: "I thought the Star Tours ride vehicles were going to get relocated."
I basically said "no, that wasn't the plan."

Ok, I thought there was going to be a 3rd ride added to Galaxy's Edge some time after it opened, and Star Tours seemed like the most logical thing since they just updated the ride a few years ago and it's fairly popular. I also didn't think Star Tours and the Launch Bay would stay around after Galaxy's Edge opened, that they would both be transformed/over hauled/re-themed into some "as-yet unannounced" "future park expansion"

...because no one seems to have an answer about what will happen to Star Tours after Galaxy's Edge opens... and no one accepts the fact that sometimes rides just close

A year or two from now? Or a year or two from when SWGE opens?
Sorry, I just can't wrap my head around DHS (or w/e it will be called) having anything Star Wars (Star Tours, Launch Bay, Center Stage live-action show) outside of SWGE, once that area is open. Seems like bad theming/show to me.
After SWL opens.
