Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

[Darth Snips]

Me too. I'd love for them to bring back a version of Star Wars Weekends where there's a change to Batuu. Life Day weekends in November, or Original Trilogy weekends in May. Something fun like that.

I want to know why they haven't done anything Life Day related in GE. Literally every other land in DHS gets Christmas decorations, why not Batuu? I would love to see some super cool in-universe holiday decor, merchandise, food/drink, and greetings ("Happy Life Day, Traveler!"). It seems like Disney is really leaving money on the table.

Oh well, at least fans have been organizing those kinds of things:

Ok that is awesome. When Disney opens back up again this should be used for every Christmas season.

Yeah, all that Disney trivialization of SW was so cringey.

LucasFilm would never do that.

That's nothing, remember Star Wars: Detours which was a planned comedy series that was quickly cancelled once Disney acquired LucasFilm?

I think any form of humor that boils down to "what if (thing) except ironically drastically different in tone than how it normally is!" is one of the laziest forms of comedy. See also: any sketch that takes something innocent and makes it graphically violent, such as 90% of Robot Chicken sketches.


Blech. Disney was right to buy Lucasfilm from George and begin to take it seriously when they did.

Hey, don't talk smack about Robot Chicken!

Good god that looks awful.

If production of original programming is halted for to long, they may need to release this on Disney+.

For sure. This past year I give them a pass as the land had only been open a few months. I actually appreciate that they left it as normal for people to see Batuu in its regular state.

In the future I'd love more events like these - Life Day, Lightsaber meetups, droid meet ups, etc. A lot of them are organized by the Galaxy's Edge discord server, which is a great community of GE fans.

That’s from 2012, Lucasfilm changed its policy in 2014, which applied across all mediums (theme parks, video games, merchandise, etc).

It’s weird to think that Hux probably doesn’t have a face in the bridge scene of RotR. He looks pretty weird from behind as it is. I need an urban explorer to get in there and settle my curiosity.

Speaking of faces, does Nien Nunb on the transport have one?

I'm still holding out for a sit down restaurant and a pod racing ride.

This view gives a much better perspective of the space available for expansion. Thanks for these photos. These are great.
