Space Mountain To Drop 'Star Wars' Theme, Go Back To Being Boring Rocket Ride Through Vast Expanse Of Cosmos

Space Mountain, which has been around since 1977, is a star attraction at Disneyland.

Though, to the chagrin of some Disney purists, the ride was turned into a Star Wars-themed attraction (dubbed "Hyperspace Mountain") in November of 2015. This meant that Space Mountain was imbued with a number of Star Wars paraphernalia, including John Williams' score, as well as projections of X-Wings and Star Destroyers. As it turned out, Hyperspace Mountain wasn't just a one-off; it's remained in place to this day.

If you're pining for the days of old Space Mountain, you're in luck, as Disney has announced that the "classic" version of the ride will be back on June 1. As noted at Theme Park Insider, the term "classic" doesn't explain certain elements of the ride. Namely, we still don't know what music will be played for the attraction. It could take a nod to the 1977 version of the ride that had no music, or the 1996 version with Dick Dale's "Carnival of the Animals - Aquarium" soundtrack, among other versions. May we suggest Aerosmith?

Of course, no one'll be missing Star Wars at Disneyland. The franchise will get its own slice of the park to call home, and it'll likely be kind of insane.
