I think there are enough die hard fans that will want to go in the first few weeks/months that it might make a difference.

Not everything has to be told. If you start an identical project months ahead, the common sense deduction is that it will open up behind the first one, not at the same time. Do we have to be directly told everything? Since they are both identical I don't feel that it makes a single dip of difference if they stagger it or do it all at the same time, however, at the same time would make it difficult for the big wheels to be at two parks at once to get their collective pats on the back by the massive grouping of SW fanbois. Spreading a little to thin. I think it is fine that DL is going to be first. Hopefully by the time it gets to Florida they will have worked out all the alien bugs. And seriously, @danlb_2000 is your alter ego jt04 all of a sudden.

So that just means that it will maximize both parks. Those that went to DL for that opening, you know will be in WDW for the opening as well. Two admissions instead of one. Do them both together and they will only get one admission. That wouldn't normally work for any other franchise besides SW, but, it will for that one.
We're talking star wars fans
Some wont wait 6 months because they ve been waiting for this for 40 years

I love Star Wars and I'll wait for it to come to DHS. The model is very detailed and looks like it will be breathe taking. If they are trying to top Pandora, it will be " out of this world "

A Reddit user found an image in the the Parks blog source code titled "Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Announced as Name for Star Wars Lands at Disney Parks."

If that's real, I think they have a winner with Galaxy's Edge. Not bad!
There's been no official name announced yet.

Based on the models the crowd levels look nice and low. That's great. I was thinking it would be packed!!!

Any word on cast costumes for the land? (The run of the mill greeters and ride operators, QS staff etc?).

They've said the cast would be in character so they should look pretty authentic to the area represented I would think.
Based on the models, this is an expansion of Tower of Terror because the land is full of... GH..GH..GH..GHOSTS!!!

Agreed absolutely. If I could afford it I would travel East to see it open at Disney Studios. I would happily attend both without much prodding. People underestimate Star Wars fans especially those who grew up in the times of the original trilogy and how connected this whole thing is to their childhood. I would happily go even if they were identical down to the last tree branch but knowing the two parks and their rides and lands there are always differences and those differences are what make the experiences worth it not to mention being there "first." I mean I still see people walking around with their Force Awakens premiere shirts they bought the night it opened from the theaters. Us Star Wars fans are a unique breed I mean who else is buying $200+ action figures multiple times without much convincing?
Galaxy's Edge if it turns out to be true is a little anti-climatic. I would have hoped they named the area a planet or at least an outpost style like Mos something but whatever.

Star Wars Experience was a better name. Star Wars Galaxy's Edge could refer to anything SW.
I would think the reverse to be true.
And experience can be anything.
In Star Wars, the Galactic Edge is uncharted space. It's where they went to in Episode 7 to Maz's place. It's where this trading post is located.

It could refer to a novel, a tv show, a board game, a video game or a comic book.
Their goal with this land is to be Westworld, thus experience is the best fit for what they're aiming for.

With a name like that, I'll be looking for Zaphod at the restaurant.
