Star Wars Dark Ride At DHS?

[Raineman]

Would a Star Wars-based dark ride at DHS make sense? I have been a big Star Wars geek for over 30 years now, and I have always had a warm spot in my heart for Star Tours, but I've always thought that a Star Wars themed dark ride could be a great addition. Now, I don't think a 3D type of dark ride, similar to Transformers at Uni, would work, because you already have the 3D thing with Star Tours. But the right concept, along with either the trackless ride system or a coaster based track system (like Revenge Of The Mummy at Uni), could work if done properly.
Thoughts?

Yes...YESSSSS. The first time I rode Revenge of the Mummy, I was WOOOOOOW, THIS IS GREAT. I thought, Disney's got to be following this up with something like it.... or better. Only nothing came..... So if Disney created a dark ride that even was similar, with guests trying to escape Darth Vader, the Emperor, Storm Troopers, etc it would be a fantastic draw. Imagineers....Imagineers.... anyone?? Oh well, maybe they would get complaints that it made somebody sick, or scared them too much, then it would have to be turned into a Stitch or Frozen Princess ride.

There is this massive rumour circulating around that Star wars, and possibly a clone of Cars land, or at least another Pixar property, could be even a mashup of Pixar will come to HWS. It has already been formally confirmed by Disney themselves that the Hollywood Studios name change is coming yet again, a new theatre is coming, and a brand new track is coming to Toy Story Midway Mania!
The question, or rumour that is currently going around is that what will go in the place of the Studio Backlot Tour? Almost for sure Cars Land, and if not then for it has to be (99%) another Pixar property. Disney said that Star Wars will have a much larger and on going presence in it's parks, so let us assume like the rumours suggest that Star Wars land either goes in Street's of America, or take up parts of Echo Lake, and The Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Show Spectacular! A possible ride could be the Star Wars episode V Speed Bike simulator using a brand new technology that is currently going in the new Shanghai Disney Resort for a tron legacy Speed Bike simulator, but more of a Soarin' feel to it.

Have a read of some of the dozens of threads about the future of DHS that have littered these forums for the last few years. All that and much more is discussed, agreed, shot down, reinstated and discussed again. And then usually shot down again.
