For the best viewing, be sure to face the Chinese Theater directly. If you watch from the sides, you will miss about 2/3's of what is projected onto the Theater. Disney also projects some images onto the buildings on either side, but they are blocked by trees.
They've already started to eliminate the old standards at HS such as some of the Citizens of America singers, the iconic Light Show.
It seems they are adding new attractions that sound as though they could be too intense for all ages to enjoy. I don't mind Star Wars but enough is enough!
Enough Star Wars already!!!!!
I'm a little afraid that it's going to take 3+ years to enjoy Star Wars Land. In the meantime Disney is pushing anything they can to keep the hype going. I am already getting tired of it and I love StarWars. Not that this is going to stop me from going to Hollywood Studios.
Great for the Star Wars fan but not so great for others. Obviously Disney wants to capitalize on the increased attendance that Star Wars week brings to Hollywood Studios. There are other parts of Hollywood Studios that are of great importance to families. Toy Story, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse , Great Movie Ride, Tower of Terror etc. Please do not eliminate any of the family oriented rides that people still enjoy just to make room for more Star Wars attractions.
Agreed. I liked Starwars as a small child, but definately don't see what all the hype is about. Of course I welcome a few Starwars attractions, but it seems as if it will eventually take over the park. Disappointing since it was one of my new favorites... Sure hope the hype dies down and they complete the Toy Story project and add some additional non-standard wars attractions.
The hype is that 'The Force Awakens" has taken in $2 billion worldwide at the box office, not to mention all the new money coming in for merchandise sales and licensing.
They aren't going to do that. They are building a Star Wars land at both HS and Disneyland. The backlot tour is being dismantled as well as a lot of expendable buildings. Lights, Motors, Action will probably also go away, and the Streets of America too. Toy Story will also get some of that area.
