News Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge - Historical Construction/Impressions

[BrianLo]

I was referring to ROA being infront of Battle escape at DL, the area seems a lot narrower at DL than at DHS. Battle escape is next to Muppets at DHS, a park area, while at DL its a road. Alcatraz has a gray building behind it in DL, any idea what that is? I was trying (and failing) to be funny.

Ha, sorry went above my head!

That's what I thought. Just for the record, that's the Millennium Falcon attraction in front of the parade building, also known as Big Bird.

Right the Millennium Falcon ride is the one with the half circle in front.

These are sad days for the DL forum. Is this what we've been reduced to discussing? Nothing to do but wait. Wait to die. Wait to live. Wait for an absolution that would never come.

Maybe now that Disney owns Fox we can Titanic attraction.

It's the only card they have left to play.

They are more likely to put in T2:3D in the Captain EO theater.

There was supposed to be a 20th Century Fox theme park in development for some foreign country which included a replica of Titanic and an area themed to the Alien series of films.

I have good news for you. There's a new user that's going to be coming that will change all that and bring more news than you can handle. So, just hold off posting anything until you see a post by @Godot.

Gal Gadot is going to post Disneyland rumors? She truly is a wonder woman.

Construction of The Grand Ave entrance to SW:GE at DHS is complete.

Construction of The Grand Ave entrance to SW:GE at DHS is complete.

If I'm correct, WDW has 2 enterances/exits and Disneyland has 3? How come this is so darn small?

Construction of The Grand Ave entrance to SW:GE at DHS is complete.

That seems small, but maybe it's just the unnecessarily dramatic angle this photo was taken from.

But also, it's probably about the same size as the Critter Country entrance under the railroad berm. Those two side doors on the DHS version make it seem smaller, but I bet it's the same square footage once you are inside the tunnel.

Here's the Critter Country version, which isn't much bigger.

The DHS structure is supposed to resemble the Figueroa tunnels on the Arroyo Seco Parkway (a reference which will go right over the head of 99.8% of the visitors to WDW), but I assume there is a whole bunch of landscaping that will be on top of this DHS structure to help that theme along. But now it just seems narrow and a crowd control nightmare waiting to happen.

Is it really Gal Godot? Or is it Marcie from Mouseinfo returned from the dead? I hope this Gal Godot mystery poster is a lady, as I've already assigned a lady gender to her, probably because of the Wonder Woman thing.

Thanks! I’ll just keep waiting for Godot.

Despite the persistent rumors that the movie studios/Hollywood theme is going away at MGM aka DHS, Disney seems to be retaining it with even newly constructed areas. You all were wrong.

DHS is becoming a park that celebrates Southern California and very specific IPs. It’s baffling

Gal Gadot...I'd go on Spaceship Earth with her

In the meanwhiles...here's this:

 

[MisterPenguin]

The entrance is as wide as the street. I can think of several bridges throughout WDW that are as narrow and the only/main entrance between lands.

I'd also assume for a while they will have a specific entrance area and exit only area as well.

 

[MisterPenguin]

I'd also assume for a while they will have a specific entrance area and exit only area as well.

That's what was said by, I think, @marni1971. In at Grand, out in TSL.

Also, there will be a long switchbacking queue in the Grand Ave area that people will have to go through. They're not going to let a mob rush the gate.

And they have the option of using the back stage street, which will be themed, to use either as a queue, making the entrance TSL side, or, as the exit bypassing TSL if that's mobbed still.
