I enjoyed it. It was a lot of fun and gave a nice overview of the land for fans and more casual guests alike. My mom is only vaguely aware of what Galaxys Edge is,and she watched it and now wants to go.

You do know all of those shows were put into production long before either land opened?

So why do you feel the need to keep telling everyone it sucks? Over and over again and crapping on anyone and everyone who disagrees with you? Personally,I dont get why Disney keeps building lands around Pixar stuff....I dont feel the need to go online all-day every-day and "educate" the people...

Not calling anyone out in this thread,so please dont take offense,but I am SO TIRED of everyone on every site griping about how much Galaxys Edge stinks and its a total failure. The whole online discourse around SW ever since TLJ has been so bitter and negative and disappointing. If all these...

Thought I'd weigh in here....oddly enough,the merch I'm most impressed with is the home-decor type stuff. The in-universe statues and busts look really nice and would make for some very low-key subtle nerd decorations in an office. I will also be getting a lightsaber and all the holocrons and...

I cannot find the article now,but I recall reading that Disney CLAIMED they had made $1 BILLION on the sale of lightsaber merch before The Force Awakens even came out. I did find this article where they were suggesting that STAR WARS could make $5 billion in merch the first year,compared to the...

Which is absolutely your opinion and you are entitled to it....but heres mine. I'm 43 years old. I grew up with the OT. Star Wars is was and always will be MY LIFE....I read all the EU and the comics,played all the games,went to SW Weekends...and I think Galaxys Edge looks AMAZING. This is the...

OK...as cheesy as this may sound....bear with me. Star Wars fans remember the Force Tree on Dagobah from EMPIRE STRIKES BACK,right? Maybe the Black Spire itself is something like that...maybe they build a ride thats like a journey thru the Force type of experience...you go into a tree and the...

I dont wanna jump on the SW is in trouble/the sequels suck bandwagon,but it seems to me,as a fan,that there WILL be opportunities to update the park and work in additional characters if they want to. Why isnt there an animatronic 3PO and R2 at the droid depot that can interact with guests? Or a...

I was a weird kid...I grew up spending most of my time with my grandparents and mom watching old movies...I was the nerd in middle school who wore a fedora and bored the other kids by talking about Bogart movies. When MGM Studios opened I was all of 13 and it felt like a park built just for me...

In other news,Disney is pleased to announce the addition of roaming Jawas and occasional Ewoks to Star Wars:Galaxys Edge!

The rumor I've heard is that he appears as a ghost/hologram at the end of the lightsaber build and offers some sage Jedi advice(i.e. dont shoot your eye out kid)

Also this. I thought it was also funny how after the James Gunn thing,both Bobcat Goldthwait and Sarah Silverman(who was starring in that summers Wreck it Ralph sequel)reminded Disney that they too had said much,much worse things before going to work for the mouse,so if Gunn was banned maybe...

They dont seem to be in any hurry to remove Johnny Depp from POTC so....

The saber community is OBSESSIVE-once they get their hands on a few of these,they will literally tear them down and review the individual circuits and soundboards inside. Hearing they're metal is a good start,and that ROTJ thin-necked Luke looks impressive-thats a hard saber for a lot of...

I have to say-I was disappointed with the Sabers and the Droids. They just look kind of cheap and not that much better than what Hasbro and other companies are doing. HOWEVER....it looked like they did have quite a bit of high-end merch geared towards adults,like the statues and the clothes and...

Yeah,I'm hoping they'll look cool(and worth the price). I did see a replica of Chewies bag that I'm gonna have to buy Day 1-I've been carrying my laptop to work in the older Chewie messenger bag they made a few years ago,but this one looked like the actual movie prop!

Lotta' people online noticed that yesterday! I didnt at first,but now I totally hear it!

On a non-soda note,has anyone else who is watching the livestream been...not as impressed by some of the merch? They showed the Droid Depot droids today and they looked about the same as the Hasbro RC droids...just in different colors. I thought they might look more weathered and "real-world"...

I mean....I drink a lot of soda and water when I'm running around in the hot Florida sun,and I love Coke,so I'm fine with this-doesnt break the immersion for me. This is still a theme park on Earth,no matter what the marketing material says. LARPing is fun up to a point,but when I'm thirsty just...
