Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

I admit I’m now more confused about the getting off and back on part than I thought I was before. People aren’t actually getting off halfway through the ride only to re-board later right?

That's correct. You'll board at the start, and unload at the end. And remain seated with your arms and legs inside the vehicle in between.

I believe that's incorrect. Cantina on the right is the TSR. QSR is the building marked on the left as "sit down".

Correct, from what I understand. It sounds like there’s some cool HM elevator-esque preshow that gets us to load, from which point we will board the actual vehicles.

Ok cool thanks. It looks like people were probably confusing the preshow with part of the ride itself.

 

[bclane]

That's correct. You'll board at the start, and unload at the end. And remain seated with your arms and legs inside the vehicle in between.

Thank you. Getting off somewhere in the middle and then reboarding later would make zero sense. Not sure where that idea came from but the problem they are gonna have with me personally is getting me off when the ride is over.

So, @marni1971, the debunking of the on-off-on-again myth of Alcatraz seems to have outpaced the debunking of the Yeti-causes-structural-damage myth.

What are your other top eight myths you regularly debunk?

In the interests of fairness and diversity, gondola myths should only account for a maximum of 3 of the 8.

Until Martin has a chance to compose his list, here are my starters for 10:

Rat (vs Beauty)
UK ride (not Poppins)
Speedway (not being replaced by Tron)
Gondolas (just about anything)

Those are all from the last year.... How far back can he go?!

Horizons wasn’t damaged by a sinkhole.

 

[ToTBellHop]

Horizons wasn’t damaged by a sinkhole.

Agreed. But it would have been. Therefore, Mission: Space.

 

[Bill Cipher]

Agreed. But it would have been. Therefore, Mission: Space.

I thought that Martin argued they could have filled the sinkhole without necessarily having to remove Horizons, but Disney used it as an excuse to replace the ride. Is that right @marni1971 or am I remembering things wrong?

If I am remembering correctly, there was no sink hole.

Ok. OC Register is wrong then.

Big thank you to @Magic Feather and @marni1971 for giving us a glimmer of hope that Star Tours has the possibility of exiting into Star Wars Land. I would prefer riding ST first and walking into SWL instead of the tunnel by Grand Avenue. Keep us posted. I'm heading over to DHS to see what's going on. Thanks again.

That’s right, thank you both.

 

[TP2000]

Ok. OC Register is wrong then.

That OC Register article has many errors, in both the text and the images. I put that info in the comment section and it was removed by the Register editors. If they only spent the same amount of time and energy on editing things before they were published, they wouldn’t have to silence critics of their biased and stupid mistakes after publishing.

That’s a problem for all mainstream media in 2017 though, not just the OC Register.

 

[TiggerDad]

The non-mainstream media has even more errors because they don't even try to fact check.

I'm trying to be cautiously optimistic regarding the overall 'feel' of being transported to another realm. I haven't seen anyone address how they're going to handle the challenge of the dreaded 'Stroller Parking' areas. How do you keep such an armada as unobtrusive as possible?
I don't see any areas in the model. Could they be that well hidden?
