I like this move. I really liked The Force Awakens. My only fear with this is I hope he doesn't make Episode IX look like a showcase with dramatic appearances from all of the characters. That's my only complaint with The Force Awakens.News

Well, there goes any chance of it being anything special, but it will certainly be competent. I am sort of surprised, but he must've had a good experience. I have yet to re-watch The Force Awakens after it opened, and now I sort of plan to watch it leading up to Last Jedi, but my memory it was good but not great, but did have some beautiful shots in it. He certainly understands Star Wars better than he does Star Trek.
I'm so late to the party on this convo, but I feel like they should offer it as part of the Park Hopper. It seems like its a natural extension, and they could get away with charging a little more for the hoppers if this was a built-in benefit. More people would know about it then too. I have personally never used it but sounds like it should go hand-in-hand with hopping!I think some of it isn't the extras themselves but the cost of those extras - like the parties have really gotten expensive - at some point people say it just isn't worth it. And with the express transport, after paying for the hoppers themselves for a family of 4 to pay an additional $120 when they aren't sure if/when they will use it is a bit to ask

Len Testa is reporting that layoffs are coming to Disney parks and resorts and will be announced in the next few weeks.
yeah, I think this raises the floor but probably lowers the ceiling - but that is probably ok. For the final one I think something safer that provides satisfaction is a good route to go - and let part VIII be the highlight (like ESB was for the original trilogy)
I still like TFA quite a lot (we have rewatched it a lot as my kids really like it). Certainly in the top half of all Star Wars movies, off the top of my head:
- Empire
- Rouge One

- New Hope
- TFA

- Return of the Jedi
- Revenge of the Sith

- Phantom Menace
- Attack of the Clones
