Our fanbase is choc-full of stupidity.That's nothing compared to the pre-sale of Coca Cola sold in SWGE.

I am a major SW nerd and it pains me to not be able to ride it. Literally takes less than a minute and I’m ready to puke.I am thinking of Flight Simulator rides, and can't think of more than one or two that have been removed (or moved to another location). And plenty still in operation. And one that is SBNO.
Agree with Rich T that Star Tours is still popular and a classic attraction.
Sorry to hear that.I am a major SW nerd and it pains me to not be able to ride it. Literally takes less than a minute and I’m ready to puke.
New Star Tours isn't very good.
I can almost guarantee that has more to do with the revival of Star Wars and not the remodel of Star Tours.I personally love it and ride it every chance I get. Everyone in my family does. And its funny how people proclaim rides are bad and yet these same rides are super busy. Old Star Tours was getting 10-20 minute waits even in its last year even in the busy seasons. This one gets up to an hour wait in the same period.

Also, to judge the artistic merit of an attraction based upon wait times doesn't make any sense.

Art is objective.I was talking about actual popularity only and that people seem to generally love the ride, hence why its busy. "Artistic merit" is highly subjective, especially when it comes to theme park rides.
Star Tours at the end of it's run was 23 years old.
The Adventures Continue is 8. Let's see how Adventures Continue is doing in 15 years.
Art is objective.
It's on the cutting block.I agree. But so far its doing really well and no sign of slowing down. And the reason why its not being replaced like so many thought it would when GE showed up. If anything it may generate even more interest now.

Yup and the whole random scenes thing too. Doesn’t mean the attraction is better. It just means someone was “smart” to cater to a growing AP market and generation that need something new every 3 seconds.
Give me one solid experience over a bunch of randomness any day. Like TOT compared to GOTG.
Wait, did anyone really think they were gonna get rid of Star Tours right as they open their biggest park expansion of all time that's also pitifully low on capacity?
The extent I've seen are innocent questions speculating about the fate of Star Tours, but no one worth listening too was ever "I think it's going away in 2019 because x, y, and z."
Everything in the park is doing really well with no signs of slowing down. I'd bet good money, if the original ride was still running it'd be about as popular as Adventures Continue, simply because the park is doing millions more visitors a year than it was in the 2000's.
It's on the cutting block.
