Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

[monothingie]

They already said Fall at WDW. Any further announcement would be a date if they follow the usual pattern.

Need to make sure the 180 day ADRs can be made.

I'm optimistic about Ep 9. But I'll still never forgive JJ for screwing up TFA and not having one scene with the big 3 all together again.

What’s more important: sticking to your overall story or giving fans an eyegasm?

 

[Hawkeye_2018]

Everyone knew HF was only doing the one movie. The fact is, JJ was scared sh**less to direct Luke.

 

[Chet Dakota]

JJ's got this.

Don’t forget that J.J. set the table for Luke disengaging from the galaxy, his family and friends. J.J. also kept the Big 3 from reuniting together by killing Han while Luke was still “lost”.

“Luke Skywalker has vanished.” What?

Whence that ""fact""?

 

[Epcot_Imagineer]

Me looking at this thread, realizing that everyone has gotten caught up in SW sequel discussion.

 

[Hawkeye_2018]

Whence that ""fact""?

There were articles around the release that talked about how JJ basically had to rewrite the entire script, and how he was really struggling with how to use Luke. Turns out his solution was to just not have him in the movie.

That doesn't speak to being super scared.

It's not all on JJ. But, IMO, the use of the big 3 was very poorly handled by Lucasfilm in this sequel trilogy.

It may be because they are not the focus of the trilogy...

 

[Hawkeye_2018]

At least TLJ was an original story. TFA was basically an ANH reboot

 

[Princess Leia]

So uh, back to the actual land... Does anyone else hate that there will be a cocktail called the "Jedi Mind Trick" or is it just me?

 

[drod1985]

But, this is a discussion for another thread. We should be talking about Galaxy's Edge here.

@Princess Leia - I'm fine with "Jedi Mind Trick" - it's like an urban legend amongst the galaxy and thus a decent drink name. I'm not sure how "Yub Nub" made its way from a tribe of Ewoks on Endor to Batuu, but I don't care, I'm still gonna drink it.

I don't mind it. Wonder if there will be colored beer like at Pandora?

Here's Oga's Beer and Wine Menu:

• Bad Motivator IPA: A hop-forward style beer with fruit tones
• White Wampa Ale: A wheat beer
• Toniray: A teal-colored wine with citrus and orchard fruit flavors
• Imperial Red: A robust Cabernet Sauvignon wine
• Spice Runner Cider: Gluten-free cider with a dark red color

 

[Hawkeye_2018]

I assume they will also have a beer stand outside Oga's?

 

[drod1985]

@Hawkeye_2018 I think the alcoholic beverages will only be sold within Oga's. Disneyland has to keep the alcohol within GE borders, and selling it in carts would make that more difficult.

 

[MisterPenguin]

I assume they will also have a beer stand outside Oga's?

Definitely not in DL which has specifically said alcoholic consumption is limited to inside the cantina.

In DHS, however, I expect the children's toy shop to sell beer.

That’s actually hilarious
