So, uh, Star Tours.

You give Jungle Cruise a pass, but say that Star Tours takes you into "real world outside the berm?!?"

If anything, Star Tours does a BETTER job of removing one from reality. You are taken to a place that we can (at this point) only dream about. If I wanted to go on an African safari, I could do that right now (the cost and desire to actually want to aside). While space travel is indeed in our futures, it is far less accessible than a trip down a river. And I am far less likely to see a 747 flying overhead or hear the whistle of a steam locomotive on Start Tours than I am on Jungle Cruise.

While the ride is certainly showing its age and could stand for some new technology, I feel much more removed from reality on Star Tours than I do on many of the other attractions discussed.
