The first land is so insanely popular, they're going to need a second just to contain everyone.

Disney parks is saturated in Star Wars (IMO). Creativity is becoming a thing of the past.. unless you count John Williams SW music and a few projected Tie fighters as "creative".

I don’t think he was the one that came up with the idea, but either way, it is an awful idea. None of the 5 original lands should ever be rethemed to a single property.

Hyperspace Mountain will likely stay until the release of Ep IX as a marketing tie-in. Chapek is all about the marketing synergy. I think that is the only reason this overlay is back and still running. Expect a Ep IX preview in the theater just before release.
I think Chapek holds to the misplaced statement from Eisner where Disneyland is a place where you can ride the movies.
If anyone has ever seen the recent Chapek interview on SW:GE, he essentially says that continuously. It's all IP, marketing synergy, IP, sales, marking, IP, etc. ad infinitum.

Ride the Movies, eh? Never heard that one before, especially in regards to a theme park.

John Williams music is extremely creative. I can listen to it all day.

Oh absolutely, but throwing it on a roller coaster about space exploration 40 years later isn't.

I would throw John Williams music on a roller coaster about space exploration in a heart beat. Disney could get him to write and conduct something original for it.

You know the point I'm trying to make bruh.

Actually I liked it... I always thought they'd bring it back for grad nights etc.

If Williams wrote a custom piece of music for Space Mountain and they gave us a proper Space Mountain with state of the art effects it would be amazing.

Go Go dancers in SPACE!!!!!! I thought it was pretty good but it could have used different music. Considering the state of Disneyland at the time, they should have used No Doubt's Tragic Kingdom. I remember they used the Red Hot Chili Peppers on California Screamin. They chose the wrong song there too. It should have been Roller Coaster of Love.
On second thought, Tragic Kingdom would work pretty well on Space Mountain now with projections of vintage Disneyland all around us. The managers would never understand the double meaning.

Possibly, there's no denying he's a composing legend. But I'll divert back to my original statement.. do you count John Williams SW music and a few projected Tie fighters as "creative"? Or, Hyperspace in its current state?

Yes, that is more creative than surf rock, no projections, unlit asteroid and broken light tunnel.

YMMV. Space Mountain as a whole is more creative than overlay, IP-based SW advertisement Hyperspace Mtn.
