Star Tours Upgrade Finally?

I believe that while he certainly could have been better, he wasn't (IMO) bad - certainly not as bad as he is maligned for.

But I seem to be in the minority on that opinion, so I usually keep it to myself. I am just too tired to know when to shut up this morning

Let's put it this way. "Good" vs. "Bad" humor are of course subjective things, so I won't argue that you consider him good. I will argue that the kind of comic relief supplied by Jar Jar (and later by C3PO in the rest of the new trilogy) did not match the kind of comic relief in the original Star Wars trilogy. So while there's certainly an argument that it's unfair to define the humor presented by JarJar as "bad", it was "different", and thus frustrating to the target audience which had come to expect a different type of humor. I wouldn't want to see a sequel to, say, a Coen Bros. movie with the Three Stooges as comic relief. Even though I rather like the Three Stooges, in the wrong context they don't work.

Well, I am all for something new in Tomorrowland. My one experience on Star Tours was lame-A-tude, to me. but I am lacking in the Star Wars geekatude, as well.

I still vote for refurbishing (if they can) the old Peoplemover track to change it to an Incredibles Pod travel thingie. In today's economy, not bloody likely is my bet. Aside from the logistics of the track no longer being available through the various other show buildings like Buzz.
