    News Disney Park Pass System announced for Walt Disney World theme park reservations

    Class action won't go anywhere. You pretty much sign off on being at the will of Disney when you even buy any sort of ticket. Same with concerts, sporting events, etc. Read the fine print on your ticket. "Passes do not guarantee theme park admission, especially during high attendance periods...

    Any Bets on What Comes After Galaxy's Edge?

    I agree and disagree with this. I do think the decisions at the top effected the overall effect of Galaxy's Edge. I do not believe the era it was set in had anything to do with it. All three movies were wildly successful films and the first two were highly rated by audiences. GE is missing (I...

    Any Bets on What Comes After Galaxy's Edge?

    Solo was a really fun movie. The problems it had were multiple. No trailer before Last Jedi to continue the hype, short window of poor marketing, releasing the movie in the shadow of Infinity War and around other summer blockbusters, and Disney has been HORRIBLE with negative press. The negative...

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    501st Legion here (Greedo, Stormtrooper, Shadowtrooper, Shoretrooper and Inferno Squad)! Rebel scum... ;) The amount of gatekeeping in the Star Wars fanbase right now is exhausting. Individuals are allowed (and welcomed) and honest debate is always encouraged. When you start speaking for...

    Coronavirus and Walt Disney World general discussion

    I feel your pain. I had a near six figure sales job with a Fortune 50 company that I was there for almost 10 years with. One day they laid off the entire department with no explanation (literally, we asked why and were told we didn't need to know). After my severance ran out and not finding a...

    News Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance Standby Line and Boarding Groups at Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Had two garrison mates from the 501st Legion go on this morning and they absolutely loved it.

    Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance

    Especially since Disney does hire to body shape. Like I’d kill to be a Disney stormtrooper but I’m not tall enough for their casting. Even if I have hours of walking around in stormtrooper armor with the 501st. Now I completely accept Disney forgoes accuracy for workability but those uniforms...

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    Absolutely. Disney has so much data on how much people who pay for experiences. They didn’t build multiple Club 33’s hoping people would get loans to go in. The question I have is how sustainable is a two night experience is. It will sell out for at least the first few years but my guess when...

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    I agree. I don't think anyone is going to look at a $3000 room that you can only book for two nights and be confused where they are staying at. Disney is very careful to say this is a 2-night immersive adventure that just happens to have a place to sleep.

    Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    That is a huge personal disappointment and made me push off rushing to SW:GE sooner than our normal annual vacation. The idea of the credits you earned actually have some meaning in the rest of the land was an awesome idea.

    Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance

    As a member of the 501st Legion, those First Order officer uniforms really stress me out with how sloppy they look. :facepalm:

    Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Despite the loud voices on the Internet, there are a lot of people (especially younger) who actually do like the Sequels. This is very anecdotal but I personally know many people who grew up with the Originals and the Expanded Universe who absolutely love the Sequels and are ready to move on...

    Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Disney was always going to lose out. There's no pleasing Star Wars fans. You do Original Trilogy, Sequel Trilogy fans would complain. You do Sequel Trilogy, Original Trilogy fans complain. If you do Prequels, people wonder why Disney based a land around a dumpster fire. :p There's so much fan...

    REVIEW - Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo at Disney's Hollywood Studios

    While I don't disagree, I also don't think it's a fair comparison. Potter was a Young Adult book series that turned into a Young Adult film series decades after Star Wars revolutionized movie tie-in marketing. It's a gold mine because it was absolutely mined (almost from conception) to be...

    A Tale of Booze in Batuu

    I'm very excited, as my kids are, to get out to SW:GE one day but the more we watch or I read on the area, it seems like there's a little bit of magic missing. I was expecting more like the Scare Zones at Halloween Horror Nights where you'd walk around and it would be a more living, breathing...

    A Tale of Booze in Batuu

    I'm a huge Star Wars fan and nothing has me really excited about Oga's. When I see the cantina in A New Hope my first reaction isn't drinking overpriced alcoholic drinks. I want to drink among the scum and villainy. I will definitely try blue and green milk when I finally get out there but my...

    News Star Wars Galaxy's Edge opening day reports - Disney's Hollywood Studios

    I had the same thought and if you look at SW:GE it does have a lot of Jedha vibes. As it stands now, they could really pivot to any time in the Star Wars Saga. The area itself if you switch out the characters and reface the vehicles, doesn't really change. Even MFSR could be redialogued to...

    News Star Wars Galaxy's Edge opening day reports - Disney's Hollywood Studios

    I think Tatooine would be way more iconic but it would be hard to explain how a desert planet gets rain every day at 4pm. ;) Naboo is based off Italy, so there's nothing space opera about it. Like everyone said, Coruscant is that kind of generic sci-fi planet. Problem is Star Wars is notorious...

    News Star Wars Galaxy's Edge opening day reports - Disney's Hollywood Studios

    While I agree, there is a large chunk of fandom who rate Prequel movies higher than the Originals. It's all a matter of what you grew up with. The issue comes with people who are gatekeeping the fandom. There's 11 movies and three animated series. You do not have to like all of it. It's when you...

    News Star Wars Galaxy's Edge opening day reports - Disney's Hollywood Studios

    There's no such thing as franchise fatigue. If there was, Marvel would've been seeing diminishing returns for year since they release 2-3 very formulaic movies a year. The problem Star Wars has is Disney assumed that the name alone is enough to carry the brand and have been very lazy with...
