I mean, "Star Wars Land" flows a heck of a lot better then Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge which is really Black Spire Outpost on the planet Batu.

Jack-Jack’s cookies don’t do it for you?I still call it "The Place That Took My Cookie Bake Away From Me". #RIPBigThunderRanchBBQ #yesimbitter
I still call it Frontierland Expansion Project!I still call it Delos II.
Probably unsurprisingly, the Chocolate Chunk Cookie Sundae at the Golden Horseshoe (which is just the Jack-Jack cookie plus ice cream on top) became one of my go-to desserts when I lost the cookie bake. But that's like comparing a Ka-Cheeseburger from Flo's Cafe to a Club 33 Chateaubriand. lol One is a glorious gustatory experience. The other is not - though it fills you up fine.Jack-Jack’s cookies don’t do it for you?
Those who experienced the smorgasbord that was the Big Thunder Bbq will not soon forget it!
Someone here thoughtfully posited that barbeque needed a presence at Galaxy's Edge and they couldn't be more right.
I really wouldn't mind if it took the place of one of the existing Galaxy's Edge restaurants. When I visited, I was really excited to try all it had to offer, yet the food didn't impress me. All I ask is that the hunk of bronto roasting on the engine stays put.
Well, now I'm hungry and engaged!Considering how badly Disney handled the majority of Galaxy Edge, I wouldn't care for them to tackle a SW equivalent of the Frontierland barbecue. It would probably be so bizarre and uncomfortable like the rest of the land with an elaborate immersive story, like a junkyard where the Jawas burn excess droid parts and they hold a Galactic BB-8-Q, using the burning droid pyres to prepare delicious Coruscantian Corn on the Cob and Dewback Meat with Boba Fett Buffalo Sauce for travelers. Everyone would hate it except for the Shut it Downers here, who seem to love GE in addition to DLR being closed.

I just don't understand why the claw does not move on Alien Swirling Saucers? What a missed opportunity...Swirling Saucers is a basic spinner, a fun little C Ticket that barely makes it over the threshold from being a B Ticket.
It was a cute add-on for Cars Land. But of course in WDW, it was a MAJOR NEW ATTRACTION! that had to help prop up an entire new land that had only one other new ride in it. That's not something any C Ticket is supposed to do. But out in WDW, they try and pretend a C Ticket can do that duty and they get interns in a Celebration cubicle farm to Tweet about it as if it was only slight less exciting than Pirates of the Caribbean.
At Disneyland, Mater's Junkyard Jamboree is simply a rather fun little C Ticket spinner with a cute theme.
At WDW, it's one of two small rides designed to prop up an entire new land in a theme park that has less than 10 rides. The result of that strategy in WDW was predictably tragic.
There are a lot of safety requirements required for overhead animation. It would make an already very expensive flat ride even more ridiculously expensive.I just don't understand why the claw does not move on Alien Swirling Saucers? What a missed opportunity...
When I worked there back in the early 2000’s, we had a vending cart there that sold turkey legs and Rotisserie chicken. No one ever visited that ODV, but the chicken was delicious.Big thunder ranch was my fav part of DL
oh so you did not enjoy the hotdog in a tortilla that everyone is raving about but sounds just wrong and gross lol?Me neither although I’d prefer a rustic outdoors spot.
Such a tease to have that meat roasting on the engine but nowhere to find any real meat.

Is there any food in the cantina and is it any good?No I actually did enjoy that and had 2 or 3 times. It’s a little overpriced though.
