**Official** Star Wars at DHS, Galactic Spectacular Dessert Party/Galactic Nights/Launch Bay/JT

Wow, they even threw Walt at you. Feels like a "get over it" response, which I guess we could have predicted.

I agree. The main issue I have is they didn't even comment about the email I got on the 4th of November and the announcement on 9th.


I expect this will be the format they use to answer any issues with Star Wars Weekend.

Tell me you didn't pay extra for the Elsa room...

Fortunately, I qualify for the AARP rate. The best part?: a framed poster of Kristof and Sven in the bathroom - directly across from the commode!

My entertainment CM friend and I did get a good laugh out of this. Maybe Fairfield will add in some SW-themed rooms... they appear to keep up with the trends.

We also toured TWDC Studios and aside from the different sound stages, this was our first sight and it caused me to think of everyone involved with the thread, especially yulilin:

SPOILER ALERT:
Here are photos and more details about DL's Season of the Force
http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney...additional-details-disneyland-released-80951/

Reading that article ... it all makes sense in DL, but I am having trouble visualizing this in DHS. Just the exterior and approach out there in Tomorrowland make so much more sense then between Ariel and Playhouse. Is DHS getting all that food in a Cantina? If so where? Out there it is all right there in Tomorrowland ..... no food by Animation. Or are they shutting down Backlot or Pizza Planet so it's next to Star Tours or is DHS not getting the full treatment like DL?

Looking forward to the actual reporting of the DHS experience ....

I know they haven't officially announced the SotF at DW yet but when they have "weekend" fireworks is that generally Fri-Sat or Fri-Sat-Sun?

Got a response from Disney, thought I would share. Please note I deleted contact information.

Dear ,

Thank you for contacting the Walt Disney World® Resort.

We understand that Guest have been in love with many of our attractions and special events over the years. Unfortunately, we do, from time to time, have to say good-bye to some of our beloved attractions to make way for new ideas and dreams. While Star Wars may have to step away for a little while. I can assure you that what is coming is something out of this world!

Walt Disney himself even said something to this matter: "Around here, we don't look backwards for very long... We keep moving forward, opening new doors and doing new things. Because we're curious... and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths."

I hope this has addressed your concern.
If you have questions or need further assistance, feel free to contact us.

What a load of... well, you know.

I'd be so tempted to respond and say: "I don't think WALT would have sent me a letter saying the event was on when it wasn't, though..."

Well there goes my annual pass I only had it for star wars weekends for the most part

Not sure if this was discussed earlier...

For the Visa Meet and greet...do you think it will be Darth Vader AND some storm troopers? I think the wording says "Imperial meet and greet featuring Darth Vader."

A big attraction of the Epcot visa one is that you get 2 or 3 characters together (and of course the photo print). Just wondering if the addition of more characters is something that will differentiate it from the regular Vader meet and greet.

Add me to the list of heartbroken people out there. Last year was our first SWW, we loved it so much we all agreed it would be a yearly tradition as often as we could afford to go. im so thankful we had the opportunity to go when we did, but I was really looking forward to sharing it with the rest of my family in the years to come.

This was the first year we bought APs, mainly because of SWW, not sure if we'll have enough reason to renew now. Like many others have said already though, maybe that's a good thing, we'll save a lot of money.

That would be AWESOME... We have several pics with Vader, and thought it was cool to have one with Vader AND Boba Fett from the Sci-Fi breakfast. Vader with Stormtroopers or others would be very cool...

ETA: I just realized that I need to change my signature that still has SWW references...

After reading @lovethattink's previous comment, maybe the Visa m&g will have talking Vader. That could explain the short timeframe for the meet and keeps the support team for a talking Vader meet to a bare minimum.
