There is a new live action Star Wars TV show scheduled to start shooting in the near future and there is another series of Clone Wars cartoons the first 3 of which will appear together in theaters on August 15 2008. The following episodes will be on TV.
Very crowded. If at all possible get there at least 1/2 hour before park opening.
Yet, Again I can go in whenever so...there is no stress for me when theirs crowds.. (I do know how it feels though...I had this feeling when I went to DLR...since we were there for only a week I wanted to try and do everything..but it was hard with the size of the park and the size of the crowds.)
Getting the celebrity autographs can be a different matter entirely. Depending on how popular the celebrity is 1/2 hour early is not going to cut it. For example last year the wife and I made a special trip to see Ray Park. We got to the park just before 7:00 AM (2 hours before opening) and the line for Ray Park was already past the bag checks. In talking to a few of the people at the front of line I found out that had got there around 2 or 3 AM. Even arriving just before 7 AM I was only able to get a stand by pass for Ray Park. If autographs are your thing arrive as early as you possibly can.Yes, you should get there early if you plan on signing up to get an autograph of a celeb. because fast passes go fast..(pun not intead lol) The crowds are to bad around mid-day...But I'm usually there the third weekend.. But I don't notice the crowds...unless its NEW YEARS, X-mas,, 4th July, Thanksgiving because nothing compares to that...and so when i start to feel like its too crowded I just remember those magical times of the year!
Per an interview with GL on commingsoon.net it looks like shooting will start in 2010. Right now they are still writing scripts.
I am not a member of the 501st but I can give you the skinny on wearing costumes to SWW. You can pretty much wear whatever you want but you are not allowed to wear any type of mask. (no stormtrooper helmet) You also would not be allowed to do anything that could make a guest mistake you for a cast member (ie signing autographs or taking pictures with guests). You will also not be allowed to carry any realistic looking weapons. (light sabers OK, bright orange toy blasters OK, British Sterling not OK)Kinda a side question... any 501st here that have gone in costume? How does that work? (feel free to PM/e-mail me) Will be down there for Star Wars weekends for the first time
