Not sure if this was brought up before, I didn't see anything in search.
With the purchase of Lucas, why not? Leave Star Tours (obviously) and Space Mtn or perhaps re-theme the load area, Autopia would become "floating" landspeeders and racers, the Terrace stage becomes a cantina...heck, put a dome over the whole land where projections could be shown (2 moons, change day to night, etc)...the Carousel of Progress building could become a flying car ride with "Peter Pan" ride type tracks all "at night", neon, other riders zooming past, up/down...and Nemo???...well, I dunno....and some way work in the Millennium Falcon.
They made an entire ~$1BIL land at DCA because of 1 good (and 1 so-so) Cars movies...Star Wars has that beat by least 3!...with 3 more to come.
How could they not?...all the money invested in Lucas and a land that needs some serious work. I would bet it was all part of a long term plan. Ignore Tormorrowland, buy Lucas, retrofit it to Star Wars Land. I know Lucas is more than SW but all that investment just to make 3 more movies...nah, they'll milk it for everything they can. Just look at POTC, and the rumored Jungle Cruise, Haunted Mansion movies and BTMR TV show.
