    News Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge - Historical Construction/Impressions

    Sounds like selection bias on your reviews. There are negative reviews out there for sure, but they are nowhere near the majority. On that same note, it's not only glowing positive reviews either. The overall consensus from the reviews I've sampled seems to be the ride isn't breathtaking or...

    Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    I don't know about TDO, but I hope and pray for an opening day like DL's at DHS. It's interesting because it seems GE is operating at a high level with good attendance, but that attendance isn't spilling over into the rest of the park. Savi's and Oga's totally booked within 20 minutes. They...

    News Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge - Historical Construction/Impressions

    Looks pretty chill. From the DL app - 45 minutes for Smuggler's Run 30 minutes for Big Thunder Mountain 10 minutes for Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters 20 minutes for Hyperspace Mountain 25 minutes for Indiana Jones 25 minutes for Matterhorn Bobsleds 25 minutes for Peter Pan's Flight 45 minutes...

    News Star Wars Galaxy's Edge Disneyland opening reports/reviews

    Savi's reservations were gone in about 17 minutes. Oga's reservations gone after about 20 minutes. That's actually not that bad. Also, Savi's had times from 8am to 12am. That's 17 hours x 3 sessions per hour x 14 builders x $199.99 per saber = $142,792.86 in sales before the park even opened.

    Some tweets during the calm before the storm. Looks like there were only 40-50 people there at 4:45am.

    Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    This is correct. I do wonder why they made the first 3 days a free for all. You’d think they’d see value in making those first hours on the first days be EEMH too. I was considering moving my trip to the middle of September, when EEMH would be in effect, but then I figured with 30k+ rooms on...

    The Saber Forge: Savi’s Hand Built Lightsabers

    Just put up a gallery of Peace and Justice sabers from Instagram, eBay, reddit, Twitter, etc. Figure it might be useful to anybody considering a build or planning their build. Funny enough I haven't seen anybody build my top 2 potential saber combinations yet, but I was at least able to...

    How did they not partner with Ben and Jerry’s after gags in both Infinity War and Endgame?!

    Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    I spent months staring at photos of the DHS version of the land. Then the DL images and photos started trickling out...and then the media blitz ensued. During all of this I always felt weird looking at DL's tan marketplace square compared to DHS' brown marketplace square. Now it's the opposite...

    Kathleen Kennedy Emerges From Bunker to Name New SVP

    But even before TLJ nobody wanted a Solo film, not even Star Wars fans. I'm glad we have it, its a fun ride, but it wasn't necessary. I'm not sure Solo would've done much better even if TLJ had been a unanimously well received home run. I agree with @Disney Irish - TROS' box office performance...

    Kathleen Kennedy Emerges From Bunker to Name New SVP

    You and I are aligned on a lot of opinions around this subject. But I truly believe the right person - even to run the business side - needs to be a fan. If she's making decisions as to which creatives to hire then she needs to be able to identify who's truly in touch with what Star Wars is and...

    Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    I'm not sure I want to rely on a bus. Would an Uber or (non-Minnie Van) Lyft be better? Or when could we anticipate the parking lots opening?

    Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    It'd be a critical error of enormous proportions if TDO allowed GE's opening to look anything like Hagrid's. Considering the apparent successes of DL's GE opening I'd be surprised if that's not mirrored and/or improved upon at DHS. As @MisterPenguin said, they've already got the system for a...

    @Throwaway1 @ZapJ Black crystal in a Sith Holocron glows red and plays messages from Snoke. Just dialog from TFA and TLJ.

    News Star Wars Galaxy's Edge Disneyland opening reports/reviews

    Coconut and rice milk blend. Sounds pretty decent. Hopefully it works well at DL and they replicate it at DHS. My only questions are whether a Savi's reservation will allow more than one purchase per reservation, and what happens if not everybody in your party is building a saber? Do they...

    The Saber Forge: Savi’s Hand Built Lightsabers

    It’s the documented process you can see it any of the YouTube reviews of the experience. During purchase you pick one of four paths. The tray you get to build your saber features parts exclusive to that one path. You can not mix paths during the experience. The parts are still compatible tho, so...

    Looks like one has blue details. But that could just be the snap on pieces at the assembly counters.

    The Saber Forge: Savi’s Hand Built Lightsabers

    That's hilarious. But they do specifically say "using all the available pieces in Savi’s Workshop" - That's the only way you could get anywhere near that number of lightsaber combinations - if you cross pollinated the paths. But they don't allow that in Savi's and it doesn't necessarily look...
