Coming straight from DisneyParks Blog, the article is right from the mouth, er, keyboard of Tom Fitzgerald, Executive VP & Senior Creative Executive, Walt Disney Imagineering: Since everything we do at Imagineering starts with the story, it probably comes as no surprise that one of the first things we set out to do with the new Star Tours show was to figure out when our story should take place within the Star Wars timeline.
The existing Star Tours show we internally refer to as "6.5," since it takes place time-wise after Episode VI Return of the Jedi. Story development for the new show began "a long time ago," back in 1998, and a story treatment from that year carries the title "Episode 7 - A Star Tours Classic" - referring to the Boonta Classic race that was to be the main feature of the show.
But by the time Episode I hit the screens, we were all anxious to know what would surface in Episode III that we might build on for the show. Naturally, we were then curious how Episode III would complete the series. In the end, after numerous discussions, we decided to place our storyline between the two sets of Star Wars trilogies, giving the project the working title "Star Tours 3.5."
This time period gave our show team the ability to tap into the very best of the Star Wars characters and adventures. But turning the clock back also required some interesting changes for the Star Tours show. The Starspeeder 3000 would need to be an earlier model, the Starspeeder 1000, with a new pilot (especially since Rex, the original pilot, opens the original show saying it's his first flight!)
Our design team created a new Tour Droid for the show, an AC Series pilot we dubbed "Ace," with a personality as different from Rex as you can imagine.
We also created a new "spokesbot" for Star Tours, modeled after the WA-7 "Waitress Droid" from the Attack of the Clones. George Lucas suggested the name "Aly San San," in reference to Allison Janney, the wonderful actress who provides the voice for this new character. We had a terrific time with Allison in the recording sessions for the show - she brought a lot of warmth and humor to the part.
We had also recently posted up a video from the blog's YouTube channel that will be featured in the waiting line for the attraction. In case you missed it, here it is again for your viewing pleasure!

The theme song is still indelibly etched in the minds of late ‘80s and early ‘90s kids raised on a steady diet of the Disney Afternoon.
Ch-ch-ch-chip and Dale. Rescue Rangers.
Debuting in 1989, Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers re-imagined Disney’s long-running chipmunk troublemakers as a detective duo, joined by a couple of mice — cheese-loving adventurer Monterey Jack and spunky inventor Gadget — and a surprisingly helpful housefly named Zipper. The show was one of Disney’s many syndicated animated hits of that era; running for 65 episodes, spawning a couple of NES games and getting 19 issues of a comic from Disney’s short-lived comic book publishing division.
Twenty years later, BOOM! Studios is following up on the success of their Darkwing Duck comic and debuting a new Chip ‘n Dale Rescue Rangers ongoing series this December, from Darkwing writer Ian Brill and with Leonel Castellani (Super Hero Squad) on art. Newsarama contacted Brill to find out if there’s still no case too big, no case too small. check it out HERE
It was announced earlier today that The Walt Disney Co. has purchased Marvel Entertainment Inc. for $4 Billion dollars. Initial reactions are of shock and bewilderment leaving many wondering what will now happen to some of the worlds greatest comic book characters (Spider-man, Incredible Hulk, Iron Man, Captain America, etc.) I thought that this was a similiar move made by DC and Warner Brothers years ago as Warner Brothers has acquired rights to distribute movies based on the beloved DC comic book characters (Batman & Superman). Disney claims this is merely an opportunity for them to push Marvel characters further.
Disney claims that they currently have no intentions of changing or muddling into any of Marvel Ent. affairs and deals as they stand for now. This could change in the future though based off of reviews. This still stands as an intelligent move for Disney as they are currently already endorsing several Marvel cartoon series on their Disney XD channel on television. Since they acquired Pixar back in 2006 after Pixar announced that they would depart from making anymore Disney pictures, Disney saw that the market for CGI movies was booming and that no matter where Pixar went they were going to make money so Disney scooped them up before anyone else could get the chance.
In the end it was a smart deal by Disney to purchase Marvel. With the character and fan base that they have and the growing push into digital media and movies and animation that Marvel is making they are only going to make more money. As if $4 Billion dollars wasn't enough though, right? What are your thoughts America?
