darthmaz314 Disney Snapshot of the Day: The Force Awakens Movie Billboard at Disney Hollywood Studios

We are now less that one month away from the release of arguably, the most anticipated film in movie history...Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Today, the darthmaz314 Disney Snapshot of the Day celebrates the rapidly approaching release of the film by bringing you a photo of the Force Awakens movie billboard, as seen in Disney Hollywood Studios, on the side of the Great Movie Ride Show building on Mickey Avenue between One Man's Dream and the entrance to Pixar Place. This space, as well as an adjacent wall, normally feature promotional movie poster billboards for the upcoming/current Disney and Pixar films. darthmaz314 has made a tradition of photographing these billboards during visits to Hollywood Studios to capture that moment in time when the films are fresh, unproven, and in many cases, not yet released.

In this instance, one of the billboards showcases the upcoming release of Disney's newest acquired property, Lucasfilm. It is no exaggeration to say that the creative, financial, and pop culture futures of Disney are all currently riding on the box office success and fan acceptance of the latest chapter of the Star Wars saga. The trail of breadcrumbs that JJ Abrams and Lucasfilm have sprinkled out for fans to follow over the last two years appears to lead to an epic blockbuster, destined to revive the franchise and win back legions of the Star Wars faithful disenchanted by the prequel trilogy. Only time will tell. The anticipation has reached a fever pitch. The marketing and promotion waves are cresting and appear to be poised to crash down hard, swallowing up everything in their path as the film's premier approaches. What was once a three year wait, anchored by the announcement that after purchasing Lucasfilm, Disney would revive the film franchise, has now entered its final month. Strap yourselves in. It ought to be one hell of a ride.
