Well that should give me enough time to save for the airfare!

You know, the first time I saw TPM, I thought the pod race scene was perfect for Star Tours.  Same with the Zam chase scene in AOTC.  I only wish Disneyland in CA did a true SW Weekends like WDW in FL.  I am in an acronym mood.  MTFBWYA!

Wow, its about time.  I love the fact its being redone, but not sure I like the Phantom Menace face lift.

I kind of wish they had stuck to the theme of the original trilogy, but I suppose it makes sense for this new generation.

I DO like the pod race, though.

Either way, I will be happy to see it... if I ever get down that way again.

I miss my annual pass  . Me and my daughter used to go down on kamakazi trips from Salinas twice a month. Get up at 4am get there by 11am, close the park at midnight and drive home another 6 hours. Body won't let me do that anymore  , but I am sure she would. Eight more years and she can drive me down there!

I'm on vacation down here in California this week and we're going to Disneyland on Friday.  Glad I'm able to see the original Star Tours one last time before it gets a make-over.

The pod race scene definitely could be fun in a motion simulator though.

Same here Dave, we are going on December to California visit friends and family's. I am taking my daughter to Disneyland and hope they will still have original star tours by then.
