It could have been, but it’s not really needed. They’ve been building new facilities over by Western Way. This would just be a weird little thing stuck next to nothing.

Also, Disney still doesn’t want random residents in the City of Lake Buena Vista.

There’s way too many unidentified fluids to deal with for that ever to have been realistic…anyway ☣️

Yeah. OG trilogy and a lower price point, it *might* have survived.

It was the price point which doomed this project. I remember the online reactions vividly.

Yes, there was *some* disappointment about the story being in the sequel trilogy, but there was still high anticipation and excitement (for many SW fans) surrounding this thing.

Then the rumors began leaking as to what Disney was aiming for in pricing. That's when the crapola really hit the ceiling fan, and it all went downhill from there.

If Bob ever listens to anyone…I would have gone back in time and said “be careful with Star Wars…”

Obviously no one at the TWDC learned that lesson.

It’s actually horribly easy…if you love it for the right reasons. No one did

Apparently they haven't hit rock bottom yet. 😕

I agree and I wonder what TWDC itself defines as "rock bottom"?

A lot of fans will say they are at rock bottom now and are currently scraping along the bottom as we speak.

For me, the failed EPCOT renovation with the ugly planter and broken ground lighting was rock bottom.

The company obviously does not feel they are anywhere near the bottom; everything they do. they define as a success.

Bob doesn't invest much in the parks for nearly a decade - People say "This is great!" and spend money.

Bob 1.0 and Bob 2.0 lower the bar and raise prices significantly - People say "This is great!" and keep spending money.

Bob 2.0 and Josh lower the bar a little more and raise prices more, plus start to charge for FP's - People say "This is great!" and keep spending money.

Bob 1.0 and Josh lower the bar a little bit further and raise prices even more - People say "This is great!" and keep spending money.

And the right side of those equations keep defending the left side and also saying those who don't do what they do are just miserable people and are the problem?

The bartender in this video clip looks like Dr. Hans Reinhart from Disney’s ‘The Black Hole’.

Meh, introduced by yet another vacuous bottle 'blond' spokesperson and a tie in with a dying linear series castmember that only IMDB can identify seems like a perfect reflection of Disney at the time. You will enjoy whatever we deign to allow you to observe.
