Summary

This week we are talking about all about the fascinating history of STAR TOURS! It's the Disneyland ride that was not only set new trends for the park, it started Star Wars on it's eventual future! How the marriage of Lucasfilm and Disney possibly begin? Just how much of a Disney fan is Lucas? What planets were considered for the 2011 version? How did Star Tours influence a young Rian Johnson and directly inspire The Last Jedi? It's an action packed episode headed to beautiful forest moon of Endor and beyond!
