they... closed Mr Toad's Wild Ride?????

Actually I was wondering about that, I thought it was open last time I checked!

I was thinking they did, maybe just in Disney World? I might be wrong completely.

It was open at Disneyland when I went in April. It is closed at Magic Kingdom.

It's funny, I'm only realizing now that the Indiana Jones ride at Disneyland really is just like Mr. Toad on insane-o steroids.

boom

on the positive side, lucas can buy some new shirts

A friend has posited this could mean Ewoks running around the theme parks now. Perhaps if they let people kick them...

my gf went to school with the kid whose dad designed jar-jar binks!

his lot was not enviable.

xp to polyphonic there's no way they do the Thrawn trilogy, and have to re-cast Han, Luke and Leia.

Kind of expecting something set further forward in the future but MAYBE with Hamill and Fisher making cameos as wise old Jedi, to legitimize the handover a la Nimoy in the Star Trek reboot.

This is a good thing. #1: reduces george lucas's ability to do any more damage

It's so hard to think of a good director/writer for this.

what in galloping shit is that

Is Irvin Kershner still alive?

xp: it is the world's worst promotional tie-in product ever; a giant lollipop shaped like a tongue in a case shaped like Jar-Jar's head with a plunger on the back you have to push in to make it open, meaning that eating the lollipop requires french-kissing a Jar-Jar Binks toy

I have a still-unopened one of these buried somewhere in a pile of junk in my house, because when I saw that thing it was just too hilarious for me not to purchase it

i'd like to see Matthew Barney given a shot at the next one

he passed a few years back. xps

good luck disney

I am still of the opinion that The Phantom Menace was worth it solely for the existence of that lollipop

I was already aware about that JJB tongue lolly ]thing, but until I saw that particular picture I didn't know it was so textured. Wouldn't that make it uncomfortable to eat? I mean, more uncomfortable to eat than it already is?

yessss

Q: how many of these were bought by adults for the sole intention of sticking them in orifices other than their mouths?

This news is GOOD NEWS! GL should have done this after "Empire Strikes Back" imho. Bring on the Disney Star Wars.

And in the event of a nu-Jar Jar, Disney will at least have the good taste not to come up with something quite so repulsive.

Jar-Jar lollipop #1 most questionable marketing tie-in ever

xp: congratulations that is the worst question in the world

A: at least one i know of

Mr. Toad was no more when I was at D.World a month ago. But of course, "Star Tours" has been at Epcot for eons.

worst birthday ever, btw

Maybe they will make Pirates of the Carribean 5: The Secret of Monkey Island.

Jar-Jar lollipop #1 most questionable marketing tie-in ever

The full head rubber Batman mask sold at the time of Batman Returns might come close.

NO WAY LOLOLOLOL

actually that was the worst birthday ever

Holy crap

Wasn't there a vibrating Harry Potter broomstick?

Yes.

Turn on your flesh heart light.

"NO! Bad Rad Repeatin' Tarzan!"

I had one of those ET finger lights and my parents thought it was hilarious

How, er, big was it?

(because it looks massive in that picture)

easy buddy, i don't think they're available anymore

>baby's arm

Anyway I think it's great that Disney owns a property featuring a lead character killing a bunch of kids and later cutting his son's arm off.
