Why did Disney lose a billion dollars on their Star Wars hotel?
Because it was a shakedown. They thought they could put all the expensive items they had developed in the R&D phase of Star Wars land behind a $3000 a day paywall and drain every penny out of the most fanatical paypigs, rather than integrate it into the main park and endure the torment of lower profit margins.
