This is going to make Star Tours look like hot doo-doo in comparison.

Let's hope it gets the boot.

HotDooDoo is one of the more primitive planets in the Outer Rim.

Great little video...but you just know inside, its like Disney PR saying "well, everyone knows already, so I guess its time we just announce it officially".

Yep. So, do we think that the head turn and shots fired is really going to happen, or was it just dramatic license for the video? I'm still not seeing any obvious pivoting ability in the skeleton, even in that underbelly shot.

Home planet of this guy

From my perspective, they look largely static. Definitely could "fire" at us as we zip past...but as for movement, my guess is very minimal.

Looked very much like dramatic license

Yeah, unfortunately I think you're right. If the heads were going to be articulated, we'd see evidence of that in the shot that truecoat posted.

Which is why it would have been great if GOTG went there instead.

You just aren't going to let that go are you?

Lol. Doesn't it make sense though? It would of accomplished everything they set out to do with the quick TOT overlay but cheaper / faster. And to a ride that's most likely going away anyway. Like I said before I think they didn't go this route because they need Temporary Star Wars land running on all cyclinders until the real SWL opens.

So, maybe it's being overbuilt because guests will be using live ammo?

Buzz Lightyear on steroids.

But then everyone would have been complaining about GoTG being shoehorned into TL.

 

[Disney Irish]

I think Millions of Star Wars fans everywhere just made a mess in their chairs...

Honestly, something as fitting as GOTG being shoehorned into TL probably would't ruffle anyone's feathers. That place has been in dire need of something...ANYTHING...non-SW for a long time.

 

[Deleted member 107043]

So fans no longer care about the integrity of TL's theme but they do with Hollywood Land?

Plus not only that but they would have had to wait another 3 years before putting in GotG.

Do you HONESTLY believe that?
