I almost rather they slightly rehaul this ride to have more precise controls and make it more fun for the other non-pilot seats. Having the actual Millennium Falcon turret gunners would bring some much needed life to this attraction. Glad it has an additional story, but unclear if this new...

Does anyone know the typical timing for when Disney announces this attraction closing for refurbishment?

I think Disney as much as possible doesn’t want anything that could be remotely considered to be a negative headline. I would expect a quiet typical refurbishment.

I wonder if bookings or DVC sales of Poly tower have impacted the decision to renew this project. If they are getting positive sales numbers then I guess we are getting Disney’s Reflections of Marriott Resort & Spa

Look we know just because they announce things doesn’t mean it’s 100% happening the way they announced it. If you feel so passionate about it start a petition and make some social media noise. Maybe it will catch fire. If you love TSI and ROA that much put your time in to show your appreciation...

Honestly I’m surprised Tom Sawyer Island lasted as long as it did. Maybe Liberty Belle to Grand Floridian, Epcot area or something.

Probably same thrill as slinky which still has some of the highest wait times

Ugh still no Star Wars sit down restaurant. What are they waiting for? Jabba the hut dinner show would print money.

Wonder if the river gets concreted so they can move guests easier. We know they had been looking at MK crowd levels when making these decisions. Happy for additional capacity and I’m sure they will make it a great ride, just sad to see the river go.

I remember what was compelling about this attraction was the ability to switch out different storylines like Star Tours. Kind of wild this is the first time they are doing it for this ride. Happy nonetheless. Probably also testing how Mando is received in the parks besides meet and greet. They...

I’m trying to think what was not announced that is coming down the pipeline for Frontierland. With the arcade going away, country bear adjustments, TBA, etc. makes you wonder if this is part of a slower complete overhaul of the entire land. Pecos Bill was rumored to be rethemed as well. It might...

I think they would want Muppets courtyard for a future Star Wars expansion, so I think Launch Bay is where Metropolis will be. Of course Star Wars is having problems as a franchise like muppets (but not as dire yet).

I’m kind of surprised they opted not to just clone the DCA coco attraction and put that where the new Cars area would be for MK. Kind of think CoCo would fit a little better.

Disney earnings call on Wednesday, any chance we get a preview for some of the announcements there?

It seems the consensus is we don’t hear about its replacement next weekend. I think there is a small chance of a bandaid replacement involving a few hour experience guests can book, especially if they are finding the need to use the space and want to make a quick buck.

I doubt we will hear anything about it at D23. I think Disney is still trying to figure out what to do with the franchise

I’m a big Disney restaurant lover so I hope they announce lots of new restaurant projects. They don’t seem to be talked about as much compared with rides but I think it’s still a crucial part of the Disney experience. Here is what I’m hoping for on the restaurant front: MK: I think...

Somewhat unrelated but Disney seems to be pivoting a bit on their media strategy lately. As the Star Wars show The Acolyte comes out tomorrow, the show runner and KK went on offense and knocked a part of fandom that engages in bad faith attacks on the show, characters, actors, etc. I am sure...

Oh oof I thought it was my bad

From the business model perspective I wonder how the lightning lane sales will be for this attraction? I feel like part of the thing that helps pay for new attractions nowadays is the paid ILL. Since it’s new I anticipate it will be popular for a few months, or be sold out just on those...
