I would think that the very thing that makes a movie good or bad is the opinion of individuals. One persons opinion means nothing in either direction, so you have gone on record as a check mark against. I'll wait until the rest of the votes are counted over time. I do believe that they have to find a replacement for Solo since they killed off the character a couple years ago. All they can really use it for are flashbacks and it appears to me that they are desperately trying to make the franchise one that jumps back and forth between a long, long time ago, to one that is even further in the past. No real chronological order to them.

Is the film discussion really relevant here? I love talking about the films, but with how divisive TLJ was it was nice to have some Star Wars conversations that were relatively drama free.
Was there originally a third attraction for this land that featured Banthas?

In earlier plans, there was an upper-level path (think of the Peoplemover over Tomorrowland) traversed by Banthas you could ride. A gentle C-ticket kind of ride that would have really added some atmosphere to the land. From what people have said, Team Disney Orlando balked at the cost, and since development costs would have been shared, this effectively killed it for Disneyland as well.

As much as I wish this had made the cut, I can’t for the life of me picture how this would’ve worked. How fast does a Bantha move? It almost seems impossibly slow.

It's not part of the thread actually. As the title of what's to be discussed is very clearly at the top. You've spammed enough threads with your take on star wars you can save us the time in this one yeah? Bright guy.

Back on topic...
Anybody know what's going on with Surabat River Valley? The trading card map shows a speeder going into a canyon of spires with the caption "Navigate with caution, Treacherous turns!" Everything else on the map fits in to attractions or areas that have been known about for a while, but I'm not sure where this one fits in.

GMTA. That's what I keep saying. You want something going at the speed of an elephant to, what, pull a cart of 8 people? What's that THRC like, 160 people per hour? Outside where they have to shut it down for rain?

Which is ridiculous considering DHS needs the extra ride capacity more than Disneyland.

I’m soooo tired... of his nonsense...
I'm assuming that image is in reference to the Millennium Falcon ride. We'll probably have to navigate Surabat either taking off or landing in the MF ship.
Yes, I phrased that purposely that way.

Interesting that they went with the FO ATAT instead of the FO AT M6 "Gorilla Walker" for Alcatraz. The M6 is a much more memorable amd threatening design where as the FO ATAT has only minimal differences from the Imperial model. I guess the size and scale just wouldn't have worked in the ride.

Yeah, I think size/scale is a big part of it (pun intended) but the standard AT-AT also evokes then original’s look more, which will connect better with those who prefer the OT.

i'd imagine the percentage of that segment to be quite staggering
