Excited for sure. Though the ultra SW nerd in me wants to point out the destinations obviously take places in different times.

But for fun, let me try and group up during which time period each destination will probably be taking place:
  • Tatooine -- Ep I
  • Naboo -- Ep I (Invasion of Naboo?)
  • Geonosis -- Between Ep II & III (Only time the Death Star was near Geonosis..it was moved to Despayre after Ep III to be completed)
  • Coruscant -- Ep III (Battle over Coruscant?)
  • Kashyyyk -- Ep III
  • Hoth -- Ep V (Battle of Hoth?)
Hoth is the only one that confuses me, as it wasn't really mentioned any time between Ep III and IV....

Well, Hoth wasn't mentioned, but the planet surely was in existence back then. Maybe it won't be the battle of Hoth that we see, but more along the lines of an excursion to see the frozen planet itself, maybe even having a run-in with the wampas and/or taun-tauns.

Well, according to Disney the ride takes place in-between Episodes 3 and 4.

And at one point concept art was revealed showing the Star Speeder getting chased by Slave 1 with the first Death Star under construction in the background...
