that means dhs has 2 simple roller coasters too. They also have web slingers.
DHS is leaps and bounds better just in terms of atmosphere when compared to WDS. DHS could use a couple more basic flat rides to round things out but there is still a substantial amount of attractions to keep a guest there from park open to close especially with Fantasmic. Can't say the same for Walt Disney Studios

I wish they would do more with this section. I feel like it's just a waste of space since Toy Story Mania switched entrances. I was standing in the middle of it the other day thinking what is the point of this? Oy vey!
Indeed. They could have live entertainment there… would love a Pixar orchestra show like they had at Pixar pier for a while. Or a live show with streetmosphere actors like they had in the past. Also is the AA of Luxor still there? Remember when he used to come out and dance?

That sounds pretty cool. Anything but a deadend and simple Meet and Greets would do.

I've never seen Luxo in person, but even on video you could tell he could really bust a move.

I don't believe they use the Luxo AA anymore. I remember something about a lawsuit, but I believe that was settled, probably just don't want to do the maintenance. It was a pretty complex AA at the time.

Personally in Galaxy's Edge I prefer the walk around characters as that land needs something (and a lot more...) to bring it to life.

Why not both?

There absolutely should be more walk around characters in Galaxy's Edge. (And moving droids in the buildings and such.) But they could do that while also having regular M&Gs - the land could really use something with C-3PO/R2-D2/BB-8 meeting guests or Chewbacca who would all fit the timeline of the land if they still feel that is important. Or you could "commune" with the Force Ghost of Vader in a M&G.

Web Slingers may be a solid D ticket, but Toy Story Mania is a solid E ticket.
Well....E-ticket might be going a bit too far.... It's a ride through arcade game... It is fun... It gets old after a few rides... It is not detailed like a classic E-ticket... It's a solid ride all in all, but not an E ticket by any stretch of the imagination....
Galaxy's Edge could use another attraction...It needs kinetics... The land as a whole just feels dead to me...Walk around characters help...A transport system like a people mover type attraction would be awesome...Land speeders... something physical and non screen/simulator based...

Well that’s just your opinion. In my opinion, Toy Story Mania is absolutely an E ticket attraction, without any stretching of the imagination.
ok...I am glad you are pleased with playing video games...Some of us expect more from our theme park experiences... Opinions make the world go 'round... I am clearly not the target audience for this attraction... but there are a lot of attractions that I really enjoy...

There is no universe where Toy Story Mania should be considered an E Ticket. It's not even the most impressive ride in Toy Story Land much less Hollywood Studios or theme parks in general. It's D at best. I haven't ridden Web Slingers but it honestly looks slightly better. It looks less like riding around a warehouse with screens set up and it's cool you can use your hands without having to touch a controller. That said it doesn't look all that great either. It's also a C, D if we're absolutely pushing it.
I'm not even being disrespectful to either ride both are fun (web slingers seems fun at least unfortunately it's compared to one of the greatest rides ever which stars the same superhero) and have their place but saying TSM is an E ticket is saying it is comparable to Tower of Terror and Rise of the Resistance which is simply not true in my opinion. But of course you're entitled to your opinion as well I just think most people will strongly disagree.

That’s an accurate description. I like the Toy Story brand 10 times more and don’t think marvel should be in Disney parks - but I will still judge fairly and say web slingers is a better attraction.

Now I don’t feel that way about Guardians vs. Tower but that’s another thread! Ha
