I've been pushing for Blizzard Beach being rethemed to Hoth. Complete with rideable tontons.

Never thought of that, you'd have to rename & retheme a lot of slides.

It's just referencing the original Theme Park Insider article.

As for Star Wars, it deserves a Universe, not a "land".

Tatooine in WDW
Coruscant in DL
Naboo in TDS
Endor in DLP
Hoth in HKDL
Death Star in SDL

It's the center of the Skywalker [a.k.a Star Wars] story! It wouldn't be too bad, just look at Radiator Springs!

i do think this is the one issue with star wars in terms of what do you base the star wars theme on...HP was easy as was cars land also avatar is pretty easy...star wars took place in many places...i would probably go with Tatooine

So, if real....is this just going to be a Star Wars restaurant, meet and greet, and a shop surrounding star tours?

Yeah, Tatooine is basically the most identifiable world in the Star Wars Galaxy and plays a significant role in most of the films. There's also some distinct architecture to the buildings that when combined with a desert look would scream Tantooine.

Also, WDW pretty much lacks any sort of "desert" land in any park. So, it would be a nice unique addition to the resort. Places like Endor/Kashyyyk (forests like DAK), Hoth (ice similar to Blizzard Beach) or Coruscant (futuristic technology theme like Tommorrowland or Future World).

Now im no star wars fans but judging off of the crowds and all the people I know who adore the series I think if disney were to make this

and a e ticket with a original ride design they could finally have their potter swatter.

I think people take for granted just how huge Star Wars really is. If there was some legitimate news surrounding a Star Wars Land, it would have been leaked with actual proof or been announced by now.

No news means nothing going on sadly.

Jimmy Thick- Star Wars fanboi's, you can't stop them, your only hope is to contain them...

Just park the walk through Millenium Falcon at the end of that block and you could literally print cash.

 

[G00fyDad]

I dont understand what they mean by that. More reference to being an air/starport?

I have no idea what they mean by that but I still like it.

 

[Turtle]

I have no idea what they mean by that but I still like it.

Well Star Tours is supposed to be an airport. But what would the expanded Star Tours area be?

EDIT: D'oh! I just realized that the Star Tours area expansion is Star Wars Land (brain fart lol)

Dear Disney,

Take my money. Please. All of it.

I'd be happy if they rethemed the entire area to the Mos Eisley Spaceport. "You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious."

Literally every news site is reporting this with excitement. (To no one's shock but TDO)

The "no brainer"-ness of this idea coupled with fan and media fervor clearly tells me that this won't be announced at D23 ... come on TDO won't make it that easy.

And imagine the dissapointment from them if its only a restaurant and meet and greets
