    As long as we can become Cylons and can destroy each Starbucks on property...

    We have to be allowed to recruit Starbuck though... She was my favorite character in the new version...

    I vote for Buck Rogers. What we really need at Disney World is Erin Gray circa 1980.

    I'd still rather they don't bring it out at all..It's good to have major differences. Keep Cars stuff in CA, let FL have Star Wars. FL has enough value engineered stuff...

    They value engineered Tower of Terror when they brought it out to DCA. I had people in line for that ride that wanted to hit me just because I said the one in Florida was way better.

    Is the one in DCA better that DHS?

    No. There are some big differences in the ride track. This made for a great first ride, because we had no idea and were so used to the DHS version that we did not expect the drop to occur when it did, which made it legitimately frightening (in a fun way)! However it doesn't have the randomized aspect and overall, it is not as good as the original.

    All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.

    Many more to come
    Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection, the lovers, the dreamers, and me.

    I had huge hopes for the Studios when it opened way back, and was really excited that a "Universal Studios" type park was going to be added to WDW. I really only go there for two things now...the Brown Derby and Midway Mania.

    DHS is my least favorite park.....and the most unfocused. I really dont think Star Wars Land is gonna change that.

    A Star Wars land is not meant to get the focus back... The park will not be Hollywood Studios once the remake is complete, so maybe there will be a focus again... A focus on ADVENTURE.. Hey, can't build rides to beat IOA, just take part of their theme park name and add it to yours... LOL...

    In all seriousness, DHS has no focus... You are right... Star Wars is meant to help where the park is lagging the most: attendance and merchandise sales... DHS is the worst as far as sales go, and as for attendance, let's just say many in Orlando laughed at the figures TEA put out regarding DHS as they were estimated way too generously...

    Then there's the exit hall between the elevator doors and the ride car...that makes it really immersive....oy.

    DHS' is still the best overall. Theming, ride, all trump the other versions.
