Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance

[britain]

Still waiting on an official AA count for RotR. I think there was a MiceChat article years ago that said 150, and then a handful of reports saying 50+ storm troopers

And then there's the possibility that every pipe that breaks or container that shifts position due to either damage from the ensuing battle going on or from Kylo's dark side force abilities could be considered its own animatronic.

Not sure how anyone could take those numbers as real now. I'm pretty sure the Falcon was promised to have over a hundred interactive features. I guess maybe all 32 of them combined have hundreds.

If the leaks so far are to be believed the RIDE looks to have less than 10, perhaps less than 5. Which is likely right. Even the much touted Shanghai Pirates only has 6 or 7.

Remember there was a tweet about how tiny Oga's Cantina was by a very big Disney insider (name escapes me). He deleted it, but in reality he was fairly accurate. All of the rumors of grandeur have fallen flat so far.

Lol

It's been widely reported in mainstream press that there are lots of Animatronics... the StormTroopers have been mentioned specifically.

Have there been ANY whispers on when it might open at Hollywood Studios??

I wish they would open it on Aug 29th with the land. It would give the Florida opening some pizzazz.

@marni1971 So will the ride vehicle actually be entering this space? It appears to be the case in your drawings but the space looks to be exposed to the elements which has me a little suspicious.

The general consensus of an Imagineer and well-known Disneyland CM posting on another website is that Disneyland's Resistance ride won't open until October at the earliest, possibly sliding into November or later.

I can't imagine the DHS version of the Resistance ride would open before the Disneyland version does.

Top of my head that’s the ride exit. Guests walk out of that black tunnel.

It’s slipped again then.

I have a Feb 2020 trip planned so fingers crossed but where have I heard this “promise a year” scenario before...

Oh right! Spring 1997, then just 1997, then simply Coming Soon and it landed up being a year late...

According to a new post on the Disney Parks Blog ROTR will open later this year at DHS and Disneyland.

Thanks but we've kinda known that since they first announced the delayed opening. Did they say a date?

 

[MisterPenguin]

At least they're not saying "Spring 2020" like for the slipped MMRR date.

 

[erider]

They didn’t mention an opening date, but at least it’s an official confirmation that it’s opening this year.

 

[Indy_UK]

I imagine ROTR will open in the next financial quarter after the August 29th opening. Double the financial bump?

 

[Markiewong]

At least they're not saying "Spring 2020" like for the slipped MMRR date.

They are not even mention Spring in the blogpost. Just ‘2020’ for Mickeys.

The possibly good news is that it'll be open before actual Spring in late Winter '20.

Or early Winter ‘21 worst case .

Anyway I have my first trip ever planned to Orlando in the middle of november. So hoping that ROTR is open by then.

Confirmed - RotR will be opening sometime after today!
