Once again, WDI is going out of their way to prove that they're completely out of touch with the realities of operating a theme park. They've tried to 'hide' attraction entrances before, and they've always been altered for ease of use. Most recently, the two Avatar attractions were only supposed to be marked by giant basket-like handicrafts, but entrance signage was added prior to opening and additional "temporary" wayfinding signage was added throughout the land. Given how obtuse WDI is being, I'm surprised they still include mundane things like restrooms and trashcans in their designs, since surely the "real" locations wouldn't have those.
Given that face characters have been doing this for decades I would have think it’d last long than a day.
We were still doing it at Kings Cross when people asked about Diagon Alley ("Huh? No such place" or "Never heard of it, maybe that weird conductor knows" and same when they asked about Platform 9 3/4.
Platform 9 3/4 is really at Kings Cross station. Here is a picture of wizard doing to Hogwarts.
I wanted to say all that, you beat me!
This info from @bshah365 lines up with what we've heard before about how themed WDI wants to make Star Wars Land. If the Imagineers in charge really do get to opening day and pull this off without any sane heads from TDA reigning them in, it's going to be a disaster.
CM's working at Disneyland have to tell customers where the line for the Millenium Falcon ride is, and have to tell them that the Fastpasses are all gone and what the current length of the Standby line is. They also have to tell them where the land exit is and how to get to Fantasyland for their Matterhorn Fastpass or how to get to the Blue Bayou for their dinner reservation.
And then, a month after the place opens on a hot July afternoon when the Resistance ride has been broken down for the past five hours and the line for Millenium Falcon is four hours long, when an 18 year old busboy from Santa Ana doesn't use the approved fake Batuu language with a customer who is mad about his cold spaceburger, what is WDI going to do about it? Is WDI going to fire that kid? Is WDI going to demand the busboy's manager discipline him? Will the customer with the cold spaceburger even care at that point?
This hyper-themed approach to theme park operations are the delusional musings of out-of-touch WDI executives who have absolutely no idea how Disneyland works. It will be fun to watch them try it on Day 1, see how it's devolved by Day 30, and then chuckle at what it's really like by Day 90.

Then I misunderstood. and I apologize and can appreciate your point in a new light.
I wish I could give your post 1 million likes. This perfectly explains what is wrong with the FL Mansion Queue.
