They are around there you have to keep looking.

Guys! I was hanging around the exit of Rise last night right after the park closed at midnight (point being there was no Batuuans guarding it) and I saw two construction workers walk out of the exit tunnel with hard hats and orange vests on and one was holding a ladder. Very interesting...

Scoop of the century!

I agree. One of my biggest issues with the land are the static droids and staging areas.

In Galaxy's Edge defense, that's more representation than any Navi life in Avatar Land outside of the rides.

Agreed! Pandora feels like the humans killed/relocated all the Navi. Photos of humans and Navi side by side are seen a plenty, leaving this eerie feeling of "...well, where are they all now??"

And now these same humans are going to be celebrating Christmas on the Navi's home planet.

The world is short of 10' tall performers.

I initially agreed about the lack of aliens in Pandora. Then I got to thinking that's pretty much the norm in Disney theme parks aside from CMs working attractions, food and retail vaguely dressed for the setting. Historically, the characters are mainly in the rides with some exceptions like Main Street or Buena Vista Street citizens, which may not even be there when you walk through.

Disney has managed a great Groot meet and greet. Disney has had tiny characters the size of Remy/Baby Groot and larger characters.

and yet they can't figure out how to have guests walk up the falcon ramp to sell the illusion.

The 48' ramp to be ADA compliant or the 45 degree ramp to keep you from bumping your head?

Seriously why aren't there any navi walking around pandora. They should add some interactive meet and greets to the land.

Would you want to be around humans who masquerade as one of you, keep one of you in a large jar in a lab and destroyed your sacred tree?

That is a human navi hybrid so not really one of their own. But the tree, that was down right brutal.

It's amazing how the CG still holds up in that movie.

So, a thought I have for discussion-

What would star wars land be without Potterland?

As in, I personally believe that Disney designed star wars land as a direct response to Potterland (took em long enough for sure, but, it is Disney... They take forever). The ride was built to be cutting edge as the harry Potter ride, we have intensely immersive theming, we have an experience for guests to personalize their own item from the franchise (wand/sabre), we have blue milk to counter butter beer... As far as I'm concerned with star wars land, Disney took the whole Harry Potter experience and said, let's make this, but with our property.

So, my question is, let's say that Potterland never existed, Disney owns star wars... In this alternate universe, what do you think Disney would have done?
