DHS Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance

[csm]

If it's as good as Mystic Manor, Disney's best trackless dark ride to date, it would be a great thing for DHS, Disneyland and WDSP.

But I'm not going in with the expectation of "greatest ride ever". That's the fastest way to set myself up for disappointment.

Mystic Manor is far from Disney's best trackless dark ride. Despite its excellent content, its pacing is entirely flawed. The only one they've truly done well is Pooh's Hunny Hunt. Safe to assume your opinion is based on riding it many times in YouTube POVs?

And Rise of the Resistance isn't going to Walt Disney Studios Paris.

I've been on both in person.

If not it, than what else? We already know a major Star Wars ride is coming to the park.

Hunny Hunt has always felt to me like it's one scene too short, Mystic Manor feels fine to me by comparison.

I wonder how good the beginning and end are going to be. (I'm thinking fake elevators like Gringgotts but a spaceship) The middle part with the droid ride vechle looks to be the main ride. I also wonder if people will have to ride all three rides or if they will be allowed to skip the middle or exit early. Are prisoners allowed to use the bathroom?

..you've got 8 people riding together - no pit stops. Use the refresher before you ride.

This ride opens in 10 days and I’m surprised we haven’t even seen any vague twitter posts or anything in regards to it. Aren’t they using Star Wars cast to test the ride? I know they would tell them now to post anything but someone usually breaks or just filters their opinion through someone who doesn’t work for the company.

..yes but (at least me) I have been asked to maintain radio silence because the Disney Gods have been angered for some reason ...

..its Rise...all the plans say so.

So to sum up, it sounds like we won't be seeing any real soft openings, ride reports, or POV videos up on YouTube until after the Thanksgiving weekend?

I've got family arriving on Tuesday night and then we'll be busy through the weekend with cooking, eating, shopping, Epic Scrabble Tournament, eating more, etc. It sounds like I don't need to worry about big news and our first ride reports if I don't keep close track of threads like this through Thanksgiving weekend?

Someone should probably tell the architects, engineers, and designers who are actively planning Rise for paris .

What the hack is a Diznoid ,and the ride has not even opened yet and of course people being so negative about it.

I'm guessing a childish name for people who love, or are nuts about Disney? I'm sure there's similar for the adults who wear robes and wave wands in 100 degree temperatures over in Potter land, however I don't know it. Potternoid?

One thing I predict though, even if this attraction is incredible and has NO FLAWS. I promise their will be someone on here that wants to come in here and complain about it in some way.

I cannot wait for this attraction, FOP is my favorite attraction of all time. I'm such a Star Wars fan so I'm a bit biased...but man if the descriptions are accurate this is going to blow past any expectations. This is very possibly the ride to reinvent what it means to make a e-ticket. This could do for e-tickets what Wizarding World did for themed lands.

It’ll have flaws. Nothing is flawless.

I’m no expert on Paris. What will they build instead? I’d be surprised if they went with a novel ride and MFSR is surely a no-go.

A two storey LPS dark ride?

They aren’t planning to build anything instead. It will be Rise.

That’s what I thought. It was a confusing discussion to follow.

The fear of ‘god’ has been put into all the Edge/studios cast to where they won’t even discuss their schedules with anyone to not be the one that leaks anything because they know eyes are everywhere- a poster on another boards kid is a Edge CM and couldn’t even get her kids schedule from them for opening week.

Why do you keep acting like you're not responsible that? You kept leaking s***, and it p***ed people off.

You know, you would think College Program kids unafraid of being terminated would have said something at least.

that being said, that kid is pathetically paranoid

Since it doesn't open until 12/5 with the press event on 12/4 - I'd say not until then.

...Rise only. See the "floorplan" again...
yes, the second image is the MFSR shape but it will be RotR, not MFSR
