Better to shut it down than open it up to more people to be able to go to it without spending several thousand dollars for 3 days I guess. I think they did lower the prices a bit, but they can probably only do so much when you consider the relatively small number of rooms and how staff intensive it is.

There really need to be more hookers open to dressing up like Rey from Star Wars.

Disney greatly overestimated the number of Star Wars fans that have that level of disposable income that want to spend a weekend LARPing the events of the Sequel Trilogy.
If it had just been a Star Wars themed regular hotel, it would have done better. Maybe have the occasional alien roaming the halls. Exclusive character meet-ups for guests.
But this was doomed to fail from the get go. And I'm surprised it lasted this long.

They also based it on the sequel trilogy and I believe they forced it to be true cannon to the time. This whole thing had it's legs and arms cut off from the pre-planning stage.
It would be like going to a week long Harry Potter Experience and it's 100% set during Fantastic Beasts series. Or going to a Marvel Avengers Resort and it's based around playing video games and drinking beer with Thor during the Snap. No wait... that would be awesome.

Love Guillermo, but we dodged a bullet on that one.

I didn't know he wrote the story for call of duty black ops 1 & 2 (also black ops: cold war.) For the most part, I think the level of quality of a movie Goyer is involved in depends greatly on how involved he is. If he's just got a story credit? Potentially good/great. If he's the sole writer? Garbage 8 times out of 10.

If Guillermo Del Toro had a hand in writing it, it probably would've been good. If Goyer was the sole writer, it probably would've been horrible.

Might as well make it official. It’s been his de facto position for a while now.

Filoni's been killing it since the Clone Wars show and even his worst stuff has still been better than the worst of Lucas, the old EU, and Disney stuff he wasn't involved in. Absolutely deserves the role.

Only care about Season 2 of Andor from Tony Gilroy. Live-action Filoni has been diminishing returns, so I can't at all get excited about this news.

In case there was any doubt where Filoni will be taking things in the future:
