Could A Boat Ride Be Coming To Star Wars Land?

Disney EVP of Imagineering, Jon Snoody has dropped some hints on some of the attractions that could be coming to Star Wars land at a CES 2016 Panel.

Snoody has said that one of the rides will be “unprecedented, in a way.” And he hinted that one of the rides that Disney Imagineering is working on with I is a “boat ride,” with boats moving alongside a track, kind of like Disney park crowd-pleaser “Pirates of the Caribbean.”

With Disney Imagineering’s history of attractions, they’ll know where the boats will be at any moment, down to the millimeter, meaning that they can predict with almost guaranteed accuracy where a rider’s attention will be.

Industrial Light & Magic is also involved as they are helping Disney mix super-high-resolution projections with real-life physical sets and characters to create an immersive mix. While Disney is also developing a new boat attraction for their upcoming Avatar land, having ILM involved would suggest this is being developed for a Star Wars attraction.

“When you build a theme-park attraction, you’re building a building, you’re building a massive device,” Snoddy says.
