Star Tours rumor update

screamscape.com posted a link to an article about Hayden Landis, computer graphics supervisor on the new Indy film. At the end of the article it states:

Quote:
Next up for Landis is another nostalgia-oriented project--a redo of the Star Tours ride at Disneyland.
Can we hope that the DHS version gets an update as well?

Here's a link to the article:

'Indiana Jones' graphics meant to go unnoticed | Tech news blog - CNET News.com

And to screamscape's entry:

Disneyland

I hope it's true as well. I do like Star Tours and I'd like to see it revamped up a bit.

Personally, I would prefer a second Star Wars attraction and a Mos Eisley Cantina eatery/bar

Yes, it would be nice if they could re-develop the Star Wars corner into something more enveloping...expand on the Ewok Village idea a bit more...or a Tattoine spaceport...something that was more than the main path from the Indy attracton to Muppetvision 3-D and the Streets of America. I think it would be neat to be totally immersed...so all you see is Star Wars-esque theming. Pipe dream perhaps, but would still be cool

While they're at it, an update to the Indy stunt show would be nice too. I love the show, but after seeing the same thing time and time again...I think I could do the opening sequence w/the poles coming up from the floor myself hehe....
