I don't think Tony would turn it into Cloud City or try to replicate a world from SW like Disney's Hollywood Studios should do, but just bring some SW theming into the area. A ride would do where Innoventions is now or perhaps a greatly themed sit-down restaurant in place of the IMO tacky arcade. As to it being futuristic and all that jazz, TL has turned into a land that represents the ideas of Tomorrow as seen in Science Fiction. That's why Buzz, Rex, and Space Mountain fits in there. Epcot is for practical futurism and realism. TL is for sci-fi. Deal with it. Star Wars is great in Tomorrowland, especially Disneyland’s.

Yes we could use some new stuff (I'd like to see Innoventions and Honey I Shrunk the Audience replaced with better, and am looking forward to seeing what they're going to do with the PeopleMover track), but it is Disneyland, not Lucasland.

Besides Buzz Lightyear and Space Mountain there really isn't anything over there that sucks me over to Tomorrowland in Disneyland. I have even gotten bored with Star Tours (yes, I know that it devalues my Star Wars geek status) Now if we were talking about a total takeover of Tomorrowland at Disneyland by Star Wars related attractions, that might cause me to raise an eyebrow, but I really like the idea of another attraction or two over there.

Why? The franchise began "a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away". (I'm only half joking about this.) More SW would be welcomed, in TL or otherwise. Even in TL, it can't be any less futuristic than the Autopia. Us SW geeks should realize that SW doesn’t belong anywhere in TL. Why? The franchise began “a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away”.
