Blog Mickey is OK. It's WDW with a News Today attached and a WDW with an Easy prefix that are the two that can't be linked.

Totally agree. Many videos show this area. It's strictly backstage service area.

Time will tell and you certainly may be right. So far that area has been used for staging. But there are way too many doorways along the backside which to me appear to be various queue lines going in and out. And I can't see any other reason for how the new steel is going up other than it will be themed front and back. That end of the land is supposed to be temple ruins of some sort- so meandering through crumbled walls in a forested area would help keep site-lines in check for a penned in area. We'll see.

It’s definitely an interesting theory! And we already are pretty sure the queue will go from outside to inside at least twice. I just don’t think it will happen here. The doorways are all very standard-sized, unusual for themed guest traffic but perfect for emergency exit doors. Because indoor queues usually contain several rooms and huge numbers of people, I expect there to be about this many emergency exits. The back of the FoP queue area looks a little like this.

Speaking of Flight of Passage, @MisterPenguin, the answer to the question on my new avatar is “No, because I am facing the other way.”

The best part of the 1st pre show room is when they ask you to move around. I liked being in the back and doing silly dances (like raise the roof or YMCA), so the people in the front (who happened to be first time riders) who don't really know what to expect, get a laugh out of it. Plus it's just fun overall. The long pause delay part though is a bit awkward.

I agree, that is the best part of that pre-show. My favorite spot in the line is where the number is closer to the outer wall; that way I can keep my feet “standing on the number,” and lean against the wall. That long pause (“we’re currently experiencing issues with the genetic matching system”) has gotten a little old, though.

"Well, Disney's Legal department just finished paying off Coca-Cola to the tune of tens of millions of dollars because Coke products won't be sold in Star Wars Land, since Coke isn't available in that Galaxy, Far, Far Away. (I always assumed it was RC Cola with maybe some Faygo and Snapple thrown in ... whiny brat Kylo loves his Snapple!) I get and appreciate that Disney wants to copy UNI and the WWoHP. But that worked because all of those drinks and treats and even candies were things that J.K. Rowling had created. They existed.

First Order burgers with black buns are just plain lame (and they sound and look disgusting, so I will not go near that stuff). This is just dumb. Because there isn't a galaxy of SW treats that people know, love and associate with the films. I am guessing Iger has called in the cast of The Chew to create items. Of course, this also sets a bad precedent because it makes people think that the SWE is different or more special than plain old DL.

Anyway, now Legal is working on Visa because WDI doesn't want the Visa logo visible on any SWE cash register or restaurant bill folder, despite Disney's sponsorship contract that says Visa gets that branding privilege. WDI is really taking the story and theme that seriously, no matter the cost. Some might say they are taking things way too seriously."

I would have taken a third attraction over not seeing a Visa or Coke logo. This is ridiculous. Are they also going to have everyone remove their Mouse ears and hide their kids bubble wands before entering the land so people don’t remember they are at DHS/ DL too? What a waste of money.

The entrance tunnel is for changing into a SW costume.
