3. Mos Eisley Cantina (Disneyland, Disneyland Paris, Disney's Hollywood Studios)

Mos Eisley Cantina

Star Wars-themed lands (or sub-lands) have been rumored for Disneyland, Disneyland Paris and Disney's Hollywood Studios - and one "attraction" (really a restaurant) has been rumored for all of them. We think an eatery based on the Mos Eisley Cantina is a near-certainty to come to at least one, at possibly all three, of these parks.

At Disneyland Paris, a mini-land dedicated to Star Wars has long been rumored to be in the pipeline for Discoveryland - to coincide with Star Tours (the latest remaining original version of the attraction) being upgraded to Star Tours: The Adventures Continue. This sub-land would, apparently, incorporate several existing attractions, shops and facilities - including a Mos Eisley Cantina makeover for the Buzz Lightyear's Pizza Planet restaurant. This, of course, would feature the unusual band seen in the first Star Wars movie.

The rumors about new restaurants at Disneyland and Disney's Hollywood Studio are less specific - but if there's going to be a Star Wars dining location, a version of the Cantina seems the most likely bet.

2. The enhanced Jedi Academy

Jedi Training Academy

The Jedi Training Academy is a popular attraction at Disney's Hollywood Studios, so it's perhaps no surprise that it's been suggested that Disney would "double down" on it as part of any Star Wars Land expansion, moving it into its own dedicated theater. The same rumors have circulated about Disneyland, with the Innoventions building being cited as a possible location. At Disneyland Paris, Captain EO is said to be the attraction to make way for an enhanced version of the show, which allows younger guests to learn the ways of the Jedi.

1. The speeder bike ride

Speeder Bike

This is the one the fans really want. The headline ride of the rumored Tomorrowland update at Disneyland (as well as Star Wars Land at Disney's Hollywood Studios) is said to be a speeder bike ride through the forests of Endor, based on scenes in Return of the Jedi. It would be an expensive proposition, though - one that will have to pass serious scrutiny from Disney's money-men.

Tron

What form would such a ride take? Well, we may get some clues next year, when Shanghai Disneyland throws open its gates. The park will be home to Tron Lightcycle Power Run, a motorbike-style coaster built by Vekoma. The same ride system might provide the basis for a speeder bike ride.

The speeder bike ride may be like E.T The Ride at Universal Studios Orlando. That would be awesome.

There is enough room at WDW to build an entire new theme park based on Star Wars, I don't want them cramming new rides into the different parks.
