That's him! That's the guy! And he's all dressed up as a Jedi for his next keg party on a planet called Fullerton.
It's great to see him again. I missed him.

Ya'll wanted the OG characters in Galaxy's Edge, stop complaining. They can't deage Mark Hamill in real life and put him on display for you to gawk at! (yet).

Darth Vader! Looks pretty fun.
Now he can't go to Tosche Station!!

So is this supposed to be a ‘younger’ Luke…?
A ‘older’ Luke?
The dark hair is confusing me…as he has always been a blond.
I will admit, I am not all caught up with the more recent ‘Star Wars’ tv series and I am assuming this appearance relates to one of those.
Love the films, know the films.
Looking at this new character addition doesn’t make me immediately think it’s Luke.
Educate me.
Why the dark hair…?

I think it's Luke post-ROTJ as he appears in the TV series.

First videos of Shadows of Memory: A Skywalker Saga are trickling in.
What a remarkable little show; projection show done right. I wonder how they do the Lore-weaver effect, is it Pepper's Ghost or do they just project straight onto the rock wall next to Bard?

I love it that he's taking it all so seriously. I know it's not his fault, really. His TDA minders told him to act like that, and his sweet, little Theater Kid heart took that and ran with it. The poor dear.
But that wig! Jeebus. They're a company with a market capitalization of $177 Billion in a current bear market and they're going to Mr. Ray's Wig World for hairdressing services for their Billion dollar land? The mind boggles.

Best thing about it, no Rey.
You should've seen the wig the Star Lord wore at Thursday night's Dance-off. It was so bad that we couldn't look away and it was all we could talk about after.

That looks so awful. What the heck? They had 5 years and this is what they came up with?

Hahah. I mean they did pretty good with most of the people they cast as Rey. Not sure what happened here

They literally brought in Luke's stunt double from Spaceballs.
It's definitely not Pepper's Ghost, you'd need a piece of glass between the audience and the effect

They were never gonna find someone that looked convincingly like Mark Hammil. Mark’s face is too distinctive to do what they do with most face characters and I’m sure that’s why they held off for as long as they did. The projection show looks amazing though. Very well done.

Wonderful show.
Can’t wait to see this in person, with an audience as I am sure it is ten times better.
But the general look and vibe I am getting from this early video capture is great stuff.
For us Star Wars nerds, this hits the right spot emotionally…especially the end.
Very well done.
I like to decision to limit the use of straight up movie clip scenes.
The projection ‘gimmick’ of just throwing up movie video clips on the walls..or in this case the spires….has been done to death at this point.
This approach, of using limited movement figures and silloettes is far more effective for a presentation like this.
Gives it a feel of being a told a ‘fireside story’ by the bard with still images then just yet another Disney movie ‘clip show’.
The subtle movements work effectively to convey scenes from the films we all already know.
A appreciated choice, from me.
Also the transition scenes and overall projection effects are very effective here.
I love Disneyland.
This reminds me yet again why.
