Star Tours
Of course, the franchise already has a presence in Disney Theme parks, where the recently revamped Star Tours has been a staple since the ’80s at Disneyland (Check out the original ride here, and the modernized version here). The new 3-D motion ride takes guests on a journey through some iconic “Star Wars” scenes, thrusting them into the action on screen.
At the Hollywood Studios version, at Walt Disney World in Lake Buena Vista, Fla., kids between the ages of 4 and 12 can participate in the Jedi Training Academy, a 20-minute training show that takes place adjacent to the ride. Participants will don Jedi robes and learn light saber skills in the event some Stormtroopers might show up (Spoiler alert: they do).
