As we mentioned, Disneyland and Hollywood Studio’s Star Tours rides will be going through a makeover between now and the time they are scheduled to re-open in 2011.
The ride originally opened in 1987 and consists of a room of seats that move electronically in a way to simulate a flight through space.
The video on the screen at the front of the room is currently playing clips from the first three Star Wars films, which are the 4th, 5th and 6th in the series.
The new video, that you can take a peek of above, has video clips from the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Star Wars movies.
Are you glad the ride is being revamped?
We hear from the D23 Expo that Johnny Depp made a surprise appearance for the fans last night. Johnny came out on stage wearing the Captain Jack Sparrow outfit that has made him more famous than he could have ever imagined.
The audience gave him a standing ovation and waited to hear what surprise he had in store – which was his reason for coming to the expo!
Turns out that Disney has just decided on a name for the 4th movie in the Pirates of the Caribbean series: Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. The film is set to release in 2011 and stars none other than our favorite Pirate, Johnny Depp.
What do you think of this new title for Disney’s upcoming Pirates film?

The relaxing ride at Walt Disney World, the Tomorrowland Transit Authority, has been re-opened after being shut down for months.
As we assumed while we were in Walt Disney World late last month, the Tomorrowland Transit Authority was closed down while there was work being done on the Tomorrowland ride Space Mountain. While Space Mountain is not going to be open again until late November the Transit Authority cars now have the O.K. to take its normal route through the Space Mountain ride.
The Transit Authority journeys above the park, but stays only in the Tomorrowland section. The Transit Authority goes inside the Space Mountain ride, which was the reason for the closure.
It sounds as if the Transit Authority ride has been given a new coat of paint and has been updated with colored lights on the rides track to give it a more updated feel. This is one of our favorite rides to go on when our feet need a break and we want to cool off when we travel to the Disney parks!
