No. We can only dream of that. For now.Did he mention a ramp extension?
For me the beauty of Galaxies Edge is that it can quickly be themed to any Star Wars era. As it’s not based on an existing planet from a film or show it allows for any character set to appear.
Have only ever seen FinnJust got off Star Tours, and I experienced something really odd. We got a sequence with Jakku in it, but when we got the video message from the Falcon, it was Rey instead of Finn. Did they get Daisy Ridley in to record new footage? I had no idea they even had that bit. I’ve certainly never experienced it before. Has anyone else seen this?

Disney sets its new Star Wars themed land in the timeline of the films they‘re currently producing: “They should have used the OT!!”
Disney set its new Star Wars themed land in the timeline of classic Star Wars films: “They don’t even believe in these new films enough to put them in the parks!!”
The newer stuff (The Mandalorian, now) markets the older stuff. They don’t need to promote the OT, they need to try to flesh out and promote the newer stuff (which is also the stuff Disney actually had a hand in shaping).
In my opinion (hey, everyone’s got one!), the problem with SW:GE isn’t the timeline, it’s the lack of follow-through on populating the land with droids, aliens, and ships that would make it feel dynamic and alive.
$$$Your last paragraph really nails it.
The problem if we will with the land is that they didn't come close at all to delivering the experience they promised.
They said it would be something completely different than they had done before - a new level of experience.
But it isn't.
It's the same thing they always do.
The same thing they always do is great, mind you - but GE isn't a different experience than say India in AK.
Both are beautifully done, highly themed lands that do transport you to those locations.
But GE was promised to be a level up in "being there."
From live action actors, droids, and interaction with those things, we were told this was going to be on a next level.
Instead, we have same level.

I think that it is a fun land, but not a good "Star Wars Land".I wouldn’t even call GE “well-themed”, I’d call it “highly detailed”.
I would have to politely disagree. There are tons of details and nods to the Star Wars Universe in the land.I think that it is a fun land, but not a good "Star Wars Land".
I guess I'm in the majority in hating The Last Jedi but in the minority in liking Solo. Not that it couldn't have been better and, yeah, the Solo character doesn't remotely seem like a younger version of the Solo in the original triology. But judged as a standalone movie, I think it's pretty entertaining.The flaw in the land isn't that it pulls source material from the movies made under the Disney umbrella. It's that it pulls source material from the two worst movies under the Disney umbrella in Solo and The Last Jedi.
True. Except for Rise of the Resistance. It's distinctly set in a First Order timeframe with Rey and the gang. Millennium Falcon could be set earlier because Hondo has been around a long time. You could make a quick update where Hondo says that Han is off on a separate mission and left him in charge of the Falcon.

Me too.I’m in the minority with you. I might be old school star wars but I enjoyed Solo and Rogue One much more than the sequel movies
Having never really been a big Star Wars guy, I sat down last march and watched all the movies in the order which they were released - I was kind of stunned, they sort of all have major issues, but for me the big win with the first trilogy is how cool it is to look at and how surprisingly good it looks. There's some bad writing and some even worse acting, but the "world" of the films is both compelling and convincing, which is something practically none of the other films quite captured.I guess I'm in the majority in hating The Last Jedi but in the minority in liking Solo.
