hell yeah brother

 

can't believe they're gonna cover Frontier City

 

can't believe we are getting a six flags new england episode

 

much more likely lmao

 

if they do they should have had me on since i worked there

 

I was in the showing for Impressions de France and a family angrily got up and left when they realized it wasn't the Beauty and the Beast movie. Why would you want an inferior product?

 

Just what your casual fan wants. Disney is just really out of touch with what people want in the parks. Less of a chance to see Darth Vader and Chewbacca. But you can see Cassian Andor! Maybe they can add a meet and greet to so families can say…go over there and meet Han Solo kids

 

I would say the billions and billions of dollars they've made from Star Wars shows that they have a pretty good idea of what they're doing

 

Fixed. Disney+ has yet to make profit, and the hole they're in from the cost of Disney+ shows actually is the main contributor to the budget cuts that have affected the parks the last few years

Also saying Disney knows what it's doing with Star Wars in the parks after Galactic Starcruiser went under is legit wild.

 

I think Disney parks are fine and will not suffer as a result of Cassian Andor being one of the options in one Star Wars attraction

Star Wars at large may be in Bad Shape but I think the parks stuff aside from the hotel have been huge successes

 

All the movies, except maybe Solo, made decent money. And I'd say Disney+'s lack of profit isn't due to Star Wars shows, and they might be one of the few things propping it up. The merchandising from The Mandalorian alone has got to be astronomical. And Galaxy's Edge is a massive success considering how busy it constantly is and the amount of merchandise being sold, plus lightning lane costs.

And yes Galactic Starcruiser was a financial failure, but I will defend that to my death as being one of the best things they've ever done. No other experience comes close to what that was. Far too expensive and worth every penny at the same time.
