I personally think it’s incredibly limiting to position an entire theme park (or theme park area) forever in a specific time period and setting that cannot ever be altered. It drastically hamstrings the things you’re able to do, the characters you’re able to incorporate, and makes it very easy to get stale, quick.
I’m as hardcore canon nerd as they come, and they made a mistake with this. It’s cool, but putting it in a specific place in time locks them out of so much content that would be awesome. With the absolute plethora of shows coming out, they need to just make it a world instead of a specific time.
TLJ never happened. Who cares. Put an animatronic Grogu inside the build-a-lightsaber temple room and watch big kids like me fork over $200 everytime I visit just to get a glimpse of him. The fact is The Mandalorian is more Star Wars than the last trilogy ever was.
They could have Jar Jar Binks and the actual Jake Lloyd running around reading from Mein Kampf, but if it meant Disneyland was back open and I could finally go to Galaxies Edge, I’m cool with it. I won’t lose too much sleep over canon at a theme park expansion a small fraction of humanity has gotten to experience.
You’re missing one important fact: Disney has regularly refreshed their rides and lands, often drastically, since the start. Star Tours is a perfect example - It evolved from Original to Prequel to Sequel Trilogy content, and they were not subtle refits.
“That guy called us a mob, let's get him!!"
This seems like a lot of worry about Star Wars canon in Disneyland, but sure.
I’m pretty sure he read the room incredibly well.
I could frankly give a crap about seeing Kylo or Rey - but Bo-Katan, Din or Ahsoka? I’m there.
The fact that Disney created an entire park without any sort of regard of its future is pretty emblematic of their whole approach to the Prequel Trilogy, so it doesn’t surprise me that they painted themselves into a corner with this one.
“Ah yes , that great HG Wells Character ‘Gentleman Ghost’”
Drawing an invisible man is surprisingly hard!!
Wells’s point in giving them three legs was to convey their alienness. another martian war machine had five. He added other details to convey how their technology (and by inference their way of thinking) was alien - for example, they appear to have never invented the wheel.
Jokes on you, this is a coin commemorating George Orwell and the state sponsored fact that Tripods have always had four (4) legs.
There are only 43,252,003,274,489,855,999 ways this can go wrong.
What’s the film version of taking all the stickers off and then making it look solved?
So, it’ll be a live-action adaptation of this?
How metal would it be if this is actually a stealth Hellraiser reboot?
Cyborg was kinda a cool word in the 80s when he was created. And to be fair, DC does have a robot man named Robotman and a chimpanzee detective named Detective Chimp.
