I am sure you know this but they are showing it during these shows because there is a high female audience they want to get in front of and people that may not know there is a new movie coming out. This is a last ditch effort to get in front of those people.

seriously? 50% of the SW fans are girls and women and even if you don't like SW or want nothing to do with SW I think it's safe to say that 99.9% of the U.S. knows that there's a SW movie coming out, sheesh, even Fox News knows about it and ridiculed the entire fandom

I know that 50% or maybe even more now are girls which is awesome but I run into people on a daily basis that go "there's a new star wars movie?" it shocks even me considering star wars is everywhere you look right now. I know a lot of girls & guys that go "didn't that come out already this year?" *face palm*

There's your problem, Texas From one Texas resident to another. I got a lot of weird comments while trick or treating. DH, DS, and I went as Jawas. You would be amazed at what people thought we were. Once we said Star Wars, we also got a lot of idiotic comments. Work is different though, because I am in the tech industry. In fact, the company is paying for our entire office, ~300 people, to go see the new movie on Friday the 18th. I will be flying out unfortunately and not to Disney

completely unrelated but if any of you are HP fans and coming in late January they just announced the celeb line up: Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley™), Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley™), and Katie Leung (Cho Chang), Matthew Lewis (Neville Longbottom™), and Evanna Lynch (Luna Lovegood™)
This will be my first HP Celebration and I'm not getting their autographs cause you have to have a special package for that but I am going to all the panels and excited to get to hear stories from my two favorite characters from the movie (Rupery/Ron and Matthew/Neville)

I have never been to this event, I am not ready to turn my Grape Lightsabers in for a dinky little wand, but I may go this year. I have been a Uni passholder for years and always skipped that event. Can we go in costume? I doubt it will be a stretch for me to pull off Hagrid.

Ahsoka, Me and my Grape Lightsabers.

Someone thought we were Sleestacks from Land of the Lost A lot of people thought we were Sand People. At least that's from the same movie.

I think Disney should have announced prior to SWW 2015 that this would be the final year for the event. This is a much loved event that draws a lot of fans. We went in 2014 and had a wonderful time. We were planning on returning in 2016. I would have gone in 2015 had I known it was the final year. I am anxious to see the new SW stuff that is coming to the parks, but the big stuff is probably 5+ years out. I agree with the dispodcaster who suggested that it will all open for the 50th anniversary of WDW. That's still 6 years from now. I wish they would have found a way to keep SWW alive.

I know that marketing put out that this cancellation was due to the construction but I believe if they wanted to they could have found a way to still have this event. Last year they had rearranged many of the meets and now they have the new flex theatre don't they? IMO it's not a matter of can't but rather that they just feel they don't need to spend the time and money on it.

I am not sure that the increase in revenue for SWW justified the increase of cost/hassle for Disney.

We're going to be DHS on 12/8/15...

So Launch Bay opens December 1st and should stay open, right?

Is this where the M&G is for Darth Vader & Chewy?

Is there a special M&G for AP members and/or card holders? We are both. And if so where?

"Star Wars Launch Bay will take guests into the Star Wars saga and the upcoming film, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, with special exhibits and peeks behind-the-scenes, special merchandise and opportunities to encounter Chewbacca and Darth Vader."

"Encounter Han Solo’s trusty sidekick, Chewbacca, for a furry photo and—if you’re brave enough—dare to take a picture with the menacing Dark Lord of the Sith himself, Darth Vader."

This about sums up the info from Disney as to Characters in Launch Bay.

and

There is going to be a special Meet & Greet for CHASE DISNEY VISA holders not AP holders, it was announced as Darth Vader earlier -

"Feel the power of the Force at the Star Wars Imperial Meet ‘N’ Greet at our private Cardmember location at Walt Disney World® Resort starting early 2016. Available to all Disney Visa Credit Cardmembers."
