A look at Dok Ondar’s in Galaxy’s Edge West as of today. Nearly all of the sequel trilogy merchandise has been switched out, but Kylo Ren’s lightsaber remains available. In a change from when the land opened, some items say “Star Wars” or have show titles printed on them.

LEGO is giving us our first Bullseye figure in 16 years in the LEGO Toy Story 5 set and the new one is straight up missing features the old one had. There’s no ear printing or hoof printing anymore 😑

I was at Disney when the Land launched. In fact, I personally wrote a lot of the copy for the Star Wars Land rides and the Star Wars hotel in the marketing materials and for the website. When I say there was crushing disappointment, almost a feeling of betrayal that the whole thing was on the new IP and not the original IP, I am not exaggerating. Disney made the decision to invest this money in order to support the new trilogy, which they thought would erase the old one in the minds of fans. The level of hubris around this is one for the business industry history books. Bob Chapek, who was head of Parks at the time (since fired in disgrace), was in charge of greenlighting all creative in Star Wars Land. He killed things like a lifesize Bantha ride where guests would ride around the land on top of a Bantha. He killed the live show at the cantina. And most importantly, he gave the land its own lame subplot where you had to use your phone to scan kiosks and get some code messages deciphered so you were "part of the Resistance," but it had no payoff. Then reality struck: they made a trilogy that destroyed the OG characters. They elevated an insufferably annoying mary sue girl boss, added a pathetic loser son of Han, a divorced Leia and Han, a disillusioned and bitter Luke, and then killed Luke, Han, and Leia. Result: JJ Abrams' career was finished as a filmmaker. Rian Johnson was wrecked. Kathleen Kennedy is finally out as head of Lucas. Chapek out. Disney movies are garbage. The greatest entertainment IP ever created was lit on fire to appease the egos of the geniuses who bought it and thought they could outdo the original genius. And now it's too late. No one cares that Darth will be walking around again to John Williams score. The new Leia face character looks like Brenda from HR. By the way, Tomorrowland already HAD Stormtrooper) (the original ones, not the new fat ones_, Jedis, and Darth in a wonderful live show for years. My kids all took part in light saber battles against Darth Vader many times. It was hilarious and thrilling. Killed in favor of the new slop. Absolutely over.

Disney spent $1 billion in 2019 building a Star Wars theme park where you were not allowed to meet Luke, Leia, Han, or Darth Vader. Galaxy's Edge at Disneyland was set on Batuu, a backwater planet in a narrow window between The Last Jedi and Rise of Skywalker. By that timeline Luke was dead. Han was dead. Vader had died 30 years earlier. Leia was alive but had no canonical reason to show up at an outer rim smuggler outpost. Imagineer Scott Trowbridge spelled out the design rule in 2022. Characters on Batuu would stay locked to their specific era. No visitors from other Star Wars timelines. The immersion was the entire point. In practice guests flew to Anaheim for Star Wars and walked through a $1 billion set to meet Vi Moradi and Dok-Ondar. The locals of Black Spire Outpost. The parallel failure was Galactic Starcruiser. $5,000 for two nights in the same sequel-era window. No Luke, no Vader, no Han, no Leia. Disney wrote down $250 million to close it 18 months after opening. On April 29, Galaxy's Edge at Disneyland abandons the rule. Darth Vader will roam Batuu hunting Luke. Leia and Han will appear at the Millennium Falcon. Kylo Ren is being pulled from the land and relocated to Tomorrowland. The ambient Batuu music gets replaced with the John Williams score. Disney spent seven years defending the design principle. Then Galactic Starcruiser closed with a $250 million write-down. Luke Skywalker showed up for one limited event last year and got swarmed by guests. The rule quietly got dropped. Avengers Campus figured this out on day one. You put Captain America in the Avengers land.

@ianmSC Their biggest mistake was not placing the land on planets from the films so you could live IN them (like you do in Harry Potter World) instead of vaguely seeing a Star Wars ‘skin.’ It should have had 1 area from each original movie - Tatooine, Hoth, inside area as Degobah, etc.!

It's extremely funny that Disney spent literally billions of dollars to build Star Wars themed lands in their parks, specifically excluded the original characters because of Kathleen Kennedy's awful advice to Bob Iger, everybody hated it because nobody cares about Rey or Kylo Ren, and now after six years they're completely abandoning their original plan and bringing Han Solo and Princess Leia into Galaxy's Edge

Ensuring the galaxy's freedom. Meet the leader of the Rebellion, Leia Organa, at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland Park starting April 29.

@zweiwalker89607 TROS is so unbelievable in its stupidity that it feels like it was written by a bunch of drunk friends who went full Rifftrax on the original Star Wars and decided to write a parody sequel

Them giving Chewbacca a Medal at the end of TROS might be the single most "We're sorry, Reddit." scene in the entire Sequel Trilogy and that is a high bar to clear.

JUST IN: 161 rocket alerts just fired across central Israel simultaneously. 5.9 million people reached for shelter at 2:26 in the morning. Iran launched ballistic missiles at Tel Aviv today. Hezbollah sent drones from the north at the same time. The combined barrage was a deliberate attempt to split Israeli air defenses across two fronts and exhaust the interceptor stockpile in a single coordinated wave. That is not a retaliatory strike. That is a saturation doctrine. Here is the number that matters more than the interception rate. On February 28, Iran launched 20 missile barrages in a single day. By March 3, that had fallen to six. Tonight’s combined attack tells you why that decline happened and why it is dangerous to misread it as weakness. Iran is not running out of will. Iran is destroying interceptors. Every successful interception over Tel Aviv costs Israel an Arrow missile or an Iron Dome battery. Iran’s launchers cost a fraction of what Israel’s interceptors cost. If you fire enough, eventually the math flips. That is the entire logic of saturation warfare and it has been Iran’s doctrine since June 2025. Israel has destroyed 300 Iranian launchers since the war began. But launchers are not the only variable. The interceptor stockpile is the other one, and nobody is publishing that number. Tonight’s coordinated two-front wave was specifically designed to drain both simultaneously. The question is not whether Israel can intercept tonight’s missiles. The question is how many nights like this the stockpile can absorb before the math changes. That answer is classified. And it is the only number that actually matters right now. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

Walt Disney Imagineering planned to reimagine Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run for years because Guests “don’t love it,” according to Josh D'Amaro. “Guests like it,” Josh said, “but they don’t love it.” (Source: hbr.org/2026/02/disney…)
