    Disneyland's Rise Of The Resistance - Reviews, Criticism, Deep Thoughts

    Transport Ship does at the very least tilt backward. See: the latest episode of The Imagineering Story on Disney Plus. ;)

    Disneyland's Rise Of The Resistance - Reviews, Criticism, Deep Thoughts

    I’m not so sure. “The ride begins with a realistic ride aboard a Resistance transport shuttle with a floor that rattles and tilts as the ship takes off from the Star Wars planet of Batuu, the setting for the twin Galaxy’s Edge themed lands in California and Florida.”...

    Disneyland's Rise Of The Resistance - Reviews, Criticism, Deep Thoughts

    Is the blue Transportation Ship part motion simulator (i.e. does more than turn around)? It sort of looks that way in videos.

    Disneyland's Rise Of The Resistance - Reviews, Criticism, Deep Thoughts

    I noticed the Stormtroopers in front of the elevators you are suppose to use (but ultimately don’t) always look flat in the different videos. All the others look convincing enough, especially those used during the interrogation.

    They could be made into great movies. Problem solved. ;)

    Disney plus Imagineering

    If only World of Color focused on the synchronization of the fountains to music, and far less on projections.

    I wonder just how convincing all those holograms are?

    The Miscellaneous Thought Thread

    It could be most economical for Disney to create a new Tomorrowland '67. Star Tours becomes a new Rocket to the Moon, using the current ride system, but traveling elsewhere. Buzz Lightyear becomes new Adventure Thru Inner Space, using the current ride system and track layout. Remove the...

    Disneyland's Rise Of The Resistance - Reviews, Criticism, Deep Thoughts

    It is really odd that AT-AT on the one side has no movement. I can't get over that. But I definitely continue to warm up to the ride. It has some pretty cool things going for it. :cool:

    2020 - Projects & Refurbishments

    I do believe 2020 could be the year for Tomorrowland to get refurbished and changed over time. Similar to what is happening in the Magic Kingdom over in Florida.

    2020 - Projects & Refurbishments

    Not to mention Small World has become some Disney version of Where's Waldo? Jack Sparrow in Pirates does the same, and more. And those bridges they added in New Orleans Square destroyed the look of the area.

    2020 - Projects & Refurbishments

    I love the Stars. But the contrast higher up is definitely too much.

    Haunted Mansion Refurb.

    I just wish they'd return the Attic to before the change that added the PPP (perfectly placed portraits). ;)

    Disneyland's Rise Of The Resistance - Reviews, Criticism, Deep Thoughts

    Kylo Ren and somewhat General Hux are both weirdly animated. But that Mon Calamari is fine.

    Disneyland's Rise Of The Resistance - Reviews, Criticism, Deep Thoughts

    I am warming up to the ride, but the difference between concept and promotional footage and what materialized is very different. AT-AT looked down and shot at guests. Location where Kylo Ren's cuts through is far less obvious. Stormtroopers in the AT-AT scene looked animatronic. It seems a lot...

    Disneyland's Rise Of The Resistance - Reviews, Criticism, Deep Thoughts

    I am more disappointed then predicted. As the special effects are crude (and not in a good way). I guess any sort of blaster trails didn’t materialize? Even the few animatronics seem quite rough. And there were clearly going to be more before they got replaced by projections. This is why so many...

    First thought: “that’s a lot of projections!” :(

    Disneyland's Rise Of The Resistance - Reviews, Criticism, Deep Thoughts

    I noticed down one of the exit routes, the painted and real lit exit signs point in different directions.

    Disneyland's Rise Of The Resistance - Reviews, Criticism, Deep Thoughts

    It bothers me the storm troopers on the second level in the AT-AT scene originally looked to be animatronic (in the original teaser), but now they look to be projections. :(
