Again you are wrong. Once again for those brain dead enough to not understand, PEOPLE WANT TO EXPERIENCE THE LOCATIONS FROM THE MOVIE. It is why Wizarding World works and keeps getting expansions and is in multiple parks. In Tatooine you would be able to do the following:
1 Go visit Luke's home and sit at the same table he and Anakin did. you could sell AUNT BERU'S HOME MADE BLUE MILK there.
visit the garage where he gave 3P0 a bath and took the restraining bolt of R2
2. you could visit Jabba's Palace with a fully working Jabba AA. hell even have solo in carboinite in there.
have a ride based around the rancor and sarlacc pitt with working AA's of both plus you can have bobba fett walking around and the max rebo band and dancers and tons of aliens and droids
3. you can go to the ACTUAL FILM PRESENTED cantina with the band playing the song. visit the counter where luke stood. sit at the table Han sat at and killed greedo at.
4. Since this is where we first ever saw the falcon you can keep your falcon ride in the land and it would work better because you can get ride of pointless hondo and bring in Han and Chewie.
5. you can have a pod race ride on the outskirs along with sand people walking around and sand crawlers and dew backs.
you can keep the droid depot run only by Jawas this time inside a sand crawler.

6. you can have a BUILD YOUR LIGHTSABER show only this time it is in Obi-wan's home which is where luke first was presented with Anakin's saber and where he built his green one. and you can have force ghost Obi-Wan and force ghost Yoda lead the show instead of cast memebers who can't act.

this and much more you can do with tatooine.

None. There is no well-known planet in SW that would translate into a pleasant theme park land. That’s the very problem with the way Disney tried to shoehorn SW into a Potter-style land. Hogwarts, Hogsmeade and Diagon Alley are the heart of the Potter stories. They’re “home” to the characters. SW is about people on the run across a variety of generally hostile environments.

Disney should have started by creating several thrilling SW attractions based on the franchise’s most exciting elements, then creating a fun, pleasant, colorful tribute land to house them all. Then filled it with popular SW characters, music and fun. Because it’s Disneyland.

Even though there's precedent for it within Disneyland, I don't think the mish-mash location idea works for lands based on a single franchise.

I disagree. Tatooine would work

Just gonna repost my response from the other thread. I would pick Tatooine. PEOPLE WANT TO EXPERIENCE THE LOCATIONS FROM THE MOVIE. It is why Wizarding World works and keeps getting expansions and is in multiple parks. In Tatooine you would be able to do the following:
1 Go visit Luke's home and sit at the same table he and Anakin did. you could sell AUNT BERU'S HOME MADE BLUE MILK there.

5. you can have a pod race ride on the outskirs along with sand people walking around and sand crawlers and dew backs.

Top notch attractions would make any land a hit land for 50 years in a Disneypark. Lack of them invites criticism for a similar amount of time.

It really doesn’t matter what theme you put around it that nobody honestly cares about.

Pandora has no “story”...it has one really good ride and they built it to good aesthetics.

That’s what it takes. Those elements aren’t “optional”.

They just highlight the lands and IP deficiencies with that “immersion only matters” crap. Because the fan says: “in what?”

I laugh at Hollywood’s willingness to p!ss off the Star Wars fan base. It always ends badly. It’s like picking a fight with a Spartan

But that is OT and ST...and they never were going to do that. They made the choice 4 years ago that they were gonna build abramsland. They decided the story and characters of their new stories didn’t matter. It’s only the label.

That is EXACTLY what Lucas did in 1999. It’s near impossible to wrap a brain around that.
