Star Tours - preservation dvd (Released)
Time

Not so much a DVD thing, but Disney Park video editor Martin Smith is putting together an HD Star Tours tribute in the fall.

Star Tours Ultimate Tribute - to be released once Orlandos version has closed. Around an hour long, in full HD, the complete history and story of the ride, followed by the entire preshow queue shot in Disneyland from multiple angles by Chris Bales - the whole 10 minute Starspeeder room show, shot on tripod showing every detail from the droids to the videoscreen. Followed by the 2 full 5 minute Droidnostics room loops, the boarding area preshow and safety video, plus the whole attraction with a mix of source and shot-with-permission live ride footage. Plus unload and exit. All with full source audio and a new source ride audio mix I`ve produced since I wasn`t happy with the mix available. I`ve brought the music more to the front of the soundfield and added the in-cabin ambient effects not heard on the versions in circulation. I`ll be shooting the differences in queue layout at DHS before it closes, and again hope to have this edit available at the end of September.

 

A lot more of his work is up here and is very much worth checking out if you're a Disney park fan. http://www.martinsvids.net/

Fantasia Hybrid Edition (* unfinished project *)

I do have a mediocre mp4 version of Patoral uncut.  I'm not sure it's as racist as people keep thinking it is, but that never stopped Disney from censoring before.

As far as stuff to add, might I recommend segments that were intended for Fantasia 3?

There is DVD footage of Destino, Little Matchgirl and One By One.  I've never seen Lorenzo anywhere at all (by I'm still looking).

Lorenzo's gonna probably be on the Fantasia Blu-Ray. They're putting all four of the shorts together into something called Fantasia World.

Also, Claire DeLune would probably be worth splicing into this edit. Was cut out pretty late from the original Fantasia as it was running pretty long already.

Star Tours II: New Footage released
Time

Just got a report from a Rebel LEgion member who took on a part for the Hoth sequence and also confirmed Boba Fett

I think Disney's definitely been improving since Bob Iger took charge. He has the sense to just let the creative people in Imagineering and animation do their own thing and make stuff good with the help of the Pixar guys.

That little clip is just part of a larger teaser that essentially said the new ride is going to multiple destinations.

The podracing thing is just one of the parts of the new version, some of the rumors have said it offers at least 25 different openings, middles and endings shuffled around to be different on each ride.

Only thing I'm dissapointed in regards to D23 is no word on whether they're finally going to make the Imagination ride at Epcot not suck anymore.

really,

 

do all your kids shows have people getting killed on them? is it enjoyable for them? death, destruction, dismemberment?

 

really? wow, you must be pretty indifferent to violence to allow that to be seen by children....

I really think you need to re-read my post, because you totally misunderstood it.  I said that the show was made for kids, and I am cool with that.  But I find it sort of weird for any adult who actually enjoyed this show Friday night.  To each his own, but I still say that Lucas is now TARGETING kids, literally, and it is pretty sad that a bunch of adults are debating a kids show on a message board.  I will say it again, and hopefully you will understand, "Let the kiddies debate this show on their playground at elementary school:) 

 

Clone Wars isn't just a kids show. It's probably going to be one of those animated series that has multiple demographic appeal like Avatar or the DC Animated Universe shows.

Would this DVD project include the queue area? It's definitely a key part of the experience. There's also some video of Tokyo's much more elaborate queue on YouTube and it'd be nice to get some translation of their exclusive stuff such as the droids before R2 and 3PO, the Mon Calimari on the screen and the whole postshow in general. They even got a few elements from Epcot's old Horizons ride for a spot in the exit advertising more Star Tours destinations.
