A Farewell to Body Wars…

by Alex Newborn on April 11, 2007

January of 2007 was a time of celebration for Star Tours fans, as their favorite thrill ride turned twenty years old… yet it was also a sad month, because Epcot closed the doors on our ‘sister attraction’, Body Wars, just two years shy of its own 20th.

As a tribute, staff researcher Alex Newborn has updated our Body Wars page with a new overview of the ride’s troubled history, as well as a more accurate and more complete transcript. Big thanks to Patrick Hurd for providing him the audio and Mouseketeer Alison for the photos. Read the complete transcript here in our special features archive.
