George Lucas at studios today?

[JLipnick]

At MK today and a cast member, one of the manager types, told me George Lucas was at studios today. Anyone else hear/see that? Wasn't sure if an announcement was coming. Again just something I heard.

Let's all remember what happened last time.

All I want for christmas is a DHS Reimagineering. It's just one little thing Santa, one little thing.

He was definitely reported at Animal Kingdom two days ago, so he could very well be at Hollywood Studios. But then I'd imagine it has more to do with a vacation instead of any announcements.

This has to be on some social media if true.

A few years ago my uncle was walking around DHS and saw Lucas walk by with his guards and stuff. Not too much longer after, Star Tours 2 came around....maybe we can expect something new from the Lucas Camp? Though technically "retired," and no longer owning the franchise, I'm sure he still serves as some sort of consultant.

I heard from friends who work there that he was at Studios today, I was there earlier and didn't see/hear anything else about it though.

He was at Universal in the queue for Harry Potter.

He was at MNSSHP last night in VIP areas. I talked to a few CMs who actually got to talk with him and they said he was asking all about the parades, characters, etc.

Do think a vist to MNSSHP is to see how Disney does private events to the planning for a Star Wars one? Seems inevitable to me we'll get a Stars Wars hard ticket event sooner or later and I doubt George thought to himself "Seems like a good night to fly to Florida and go to MNSSHP! Let's go!" He's been here for a few days by now though. I'd say his visit probably has something to do with Star Wars Land, but that's just an educated guess.

A new continent for Animal Kingdom with a 30s pulp adventure setting would be pretty rad.

Basically it was reported on Twitter back on May 4th of last year that Iger was at HS to make a Star Wars announcement, then social media started reporting that Lucas was there, then we found out that none of this was true, then things turned ugly.

You know, the Bearded One could have, um, just been on vacation. He is human.

We saw George Lucas leaving Peter Pans Flight with his wife and daughter yesterday afternoon on Halloween. Awesome.

I can confirm that he was near Kali River Rapids in December of 1999.

Isn't that what Adventureland is supposed to be?

From looking at that picture, it appears he has gained about 150 lbs in his neck since then!
