I always wanted to do this, but I never found any good video of the ride. I started collecting different photos of the ride and the "exhibits" that are with it.
It would be cool to include a slideshow of these images along with any other good pictures people had to offer up.
Also, along with the video of the ride, there definitely would also have to be all of the instruction videos featuring the Star Wars characters.
Well, that Star Tours audio file is a step in the right direction. It's sounds crystal clear, so now we just need the video!
That Star Tours flash animation would be good to include as well...that was pretty cool...anyway...

As for the video, I've seen the one on the rarities disc, which is fairly low quality, and I've just found an mpg of camcorder footage someone took of the ride. It doesn't show the ride off quite as well as the rarities version, and sound is blownout (less of an issue now thanks to AdamW), but the most interesting thing about it is it shows the entrance set/animatronics during queue for the ride.
edit update: I've now uploaded the camcorder footage file to megaupload.com, its approx 74mb. Get It Here

Interesting to hear where the clips came from. I tried to find Disneyland Source, but the site seems to be 'mostly dead' - even using the wayback machine, there's not much of it left archived. The good news, is that is lives on in its successor www.visionsfantastic.com and bizarrely on there, is a WMV version of the mpg file i uploaded, as well a smaller differently edited version using the same footage, even down to the overloud distorted audio.
Was hoping they might have more info on the ride on their site, but they only seem to have one page, with a single image devoted to it, aside from the video clips.
If anyone wants the clips from the visions fantastic site, they're free to download from the site, but you have to register (for free) to access them.

Neither of them have a really high quality version of the ride vid though.

EDIT: BTW, you can download the clip of C-3PO's "safety video" from the ride here. It's not very good quality, but it is what it is.

<span class=“Italics”>MeBeJedi: Sadly, I believe the prequels are beyond repair.
<span class=“Bold”>JediRandy: They’re certainly beyond any repair you’re capable of making.</span></span>

I just found this site devoted to Star Tours, www.swstartours.net.
There's a thread by Kitmouse who made the flash movie, sounds like he could still be tinkering with it. It also mentions a DVD one of them put together full of Star Tours goodness.
"a DVD that I made, which compiled every video clip of Star Tours that I could lay my hands on, including electronic press kit clips, etc."
Ocpmovie, does that one that sound familiar, and any idea if the guys from this forum made the discs you mentioned? Admittedly their names are completely different, but that's hardly anything new.

Aaron Snyder did the best Star Tours disc though.

I feel like we're so close to making a really cool set. I've seen lots of the "Star Tours" videos floating around, along with great pictures, etc.
All of this really needs to be collected onto one dvd. I guess we should start by looking at the content of these ellusive discs. If anyone has copy of them, might you be willing to share?
Also, there are other things that would be worth including, such as the promotional videos for Star Wars weekends at Disneyland.
Anyway, this really does have so much potential...I hope we can get it off the ground...

In late 1986, Gil Gerard (Buck Rogers in the 25th Century) and Ernie Reyes Jr. (the kid from Surf Ninjas and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II), hosted 'A Vacation In Space', promoting the Star Tours ride at Disneyland. C-3PO and R2-D2 also made appearances. The show takes a peek at how Star Tours was made and also at the history of space travel and space-flicks. At the end, Ernie actually goes on the Starspeeder, giving away some teasers of the ride itself. However, most notably, at the beginning of the special, R2-D2 and C-3PO do a rap song which ends up being the highlight of this 17 minute 'commercial'.

I love that rap.

Here's another video clip (73mb), a look at Star Tours at Disneyland Paris, from Germany's RTL channel. Needless to say, it's in German. Do we have any German speakers who can translate it?
Here's some screengrabs. The quality of the ride footage looks great, but unfortunately there's only a few seconds of it.
