I’m still confused as to the timeline of this ride. Obviously we’ll know more once TROS is released but if Kylo is “redeemed” (as per rumor), then that kinda changes the story elements of the land, right?
If I had to venture a wild guess, it takes place right before TROS and/or during it and fleshes out a part the movie didn’t need to focus on YET ties into the ending by...
- force ghost Luke & Palpatine (preshow/postshow to throw classic fans a bone)
- some additional touches and/or live entertainment that helps tie it all together
I would think can be done without affecting the main storyline of the ride (for 15 days it’s open prior to the film).
Could this also be the (albeit convenient) reason to slash the entertainment budget and expense it “next year” since they know they will add these touches, why not just wait ?
Or I’m ignorantly optimistic
