ANAHEIM, Calif.--It was a Star Wars-themed weekend at Disneyland as the new and improved Star Tours ride, called Star Tours: The Adventures Continue, reopened to the public after being shut for more than a year for a redesign. Using improved motion simulators, new art design, and Dolby digital 3D technology, the new ride ditches some of the old comedy elements to recruit riders into the Rebellion.

Riders randomly visit any two of six destinations, including Coruscant, Hoth, Kashyyyk, Naboo, Tatooine, and The Death Star. With three possible opening scenarios and three possible conclusions randomly selected during the ride, visitors can experience 54 different combinations on the ride, all while meeting R2-D2, Darth Vader, Boba Fett, Stormtroopers, Jedi Master Yoda, Admiral Ackbar, Princess Leia, and Chewbacca.

Opening-weekend lines ran between 50 minutes and two hours long.
