Star Wars themed land announced for Disneyland

[Donaldfan1934]

Walt has been dead for close to 50 years. At what point do we stop doing this and allow DL to evolve in a way that is true to the original vision, but appeals to contemporary audiences? If you as a fan you are willing to say no to Star Wars what equally big idea would you be willing to say yes to?

Here's a few additions that I'd give the greenlight to.

I understand what you mean when you say that they need to build something at Disneyland before they build a third park. That being said, they should build something more fitting like a Frozen and/or Tangled ride in Fantasyland, a Princess and the Frog ride in New Orleans square, expand Toontown and/or Critter Country, do something in Adventureland if possible, do the most popular option of redoing an aesthetically broken Tomorrowland that still suffers from problems created 15+ years ago, or build a 9th land that will at least SOMEWHAT gel with the existing ones.

Was there not enough room in DAC to get rid of a few things that weren't popular to put SWL? Perhaps It would have equaled the parks out.

The parking lot tram announcer cast member was saying may the force be with you to departing guests. This is madness!

Are you serious?

Gross!!!!

The future of this resort sure looks like Mr. Toad getting hit by a train.

Not 14 contiguous acres. Also, the current rumor is that DCA is getting a Mavel expansion.

You don't seem prone to sarcasm, so can I consider this hyperbole?

Yes, a hyperbolic metaphor if you will.

For anyone keeping track, Marvel is now on an indefinite hold for DCA.

 

[Deleted member 107043]

Any particular reason why? Seems like WDI has a lot on its plate at the moment.

Of course it is.

WDI is cutting staff and they're already unable to handle their current slate of projects. TDL and TDS expansions have been indefinitely delayed as well. Things are going great!

 

[George Lucas on a Bench]

Must be all the money they've been losing. Right?

 

[GiveMeTheMusic]

Yeah, DL is REALLY hurting.

[Travel Junkie]

Not surprised. You have all the budget problems going through the company right now, which is insane because of how much money the company is raking in.

I'm really bummed to hear about the delay to TDL and TDS.

 

[Phroobar]

Too many fiefdoms in the Kingdom.

Shoot, I was hoping it was on hold so they could go another direction creatively. Sorry, I don't want the last expansion pad left at DCA to be Marvel. Give me some variety. Put some sort of Adventureland in California ADVENTURE. To be honest I would rather have Marvel take over a portion or a couple attractions in TL then go in DCAs expansion pad.

I'd imagine Disney would rather not stack both of their big franchises in DL if they can help it, hence Marvel going into DCA.

The Imagineers probably wouldn't if they could. Executives don't care.

Ya I know. Just wishful thinking on my part
