On my most recent visit to WDW and Hollywood Studios last week, as I roamed through Streets of America I realized something seriously was lacking.
Nobody goes back to Streets of America unless it is to sit on the stoops of the San Francisco street and rest. There is nothing back there and it is just wasted space.
I also noticed that the Tatoonie Traders leads right into the Streets of America.
So I am writing a letter to Disney to suggest that they replace Streets of America with the Mos Eisley Cantina from Star Wars E4. Imagine the live band, animatronics of Chewy sitting with Luke and Obi Wan. Animatronics of Greedo and Han ....with Han shooting first.
How about the occasional droid walking in and the "We don't serve their kind here" being tossed about. They could even make it include a ride through like in Mexico or Maestrom. Ride through some of the scenes from the movie..."These aren't the droids you're looking for", the Millenium Falcon blasting off to escape the Empire, etc.
The Mos Eisley Cantina would be a fun place to sit, have some adult beverages and some counter service food. Dark...cool...seedy....with tons of Alien animatronics and cast members scattered about to give it that great atmosphere.
In addition...I would like to see Jabba's Palace as a sit down dining attraction.
Imagine...Jabba on his throne on the right, Carbonite Han hanging nearby.
the Max Rebo band off to the left
and in the middle, we sit at our tables and face the dance floor with Oola and other bounty hunters that come in and entertain or bargain with Jabba only to be send falling through the floor.
Then you could look down into grates and see parts of the Rancor beneath you just glimpses moving around below.
This would be a sit down dining attraction. I'm not going to go as far as to have the female CMs dressed in the Leia Slave costume, but they can be dressed like Jabba Minions.
Then you can be greeted by his white-headed Twilek and confronted by Gammorean Guards as you enter.
Disney can even have the eye out front that greets you at the door and welcomes you to Jabba's Palace or confirms your reservation.
Jabba's Palace would be a DREAM! And a HUGE money maker. Then the stores that connect to both places would have fantastic Star Wars merchandise.
Streets of America could be turned into the streets of Tatooine....and even the San Francisco area could be made into a Coruscant area with a matte painting replacing the Golden Gate bridge with the Jedi Temple, the Senate Building and the Coruscant skyline.
There is SO SO much Disney can do with this now that they own the rights to everything Lucas.
And the Star Wars Weekends would make this area a home run for those fans as well.
Who else would like to see this change made?
