Star Wars All-Inclusive "Star Ship" Resort?

[clemmo]

I doubt they would put it on the other size of World Drive. Somewhere is this area would make the most sense...

Do you have a map of the new DHS entrance?

Here is one that @roj2323 did...

I hope something significantly more interesting than Hogwart's Express. When we go to the end of that ride, my 8 year old nephew said "That's it. Why did we wait in line for that."

Tough crowd I guess... For a transportation device meant solely to travel to a close park while st the same charge up selling the second park, its brilliant.

I still don't think the trip to the park would be themed or any different from visiting the park from any other resort. The extras offered were just a perk offered as part of the package purchase and would be on a set schedule. They didn't really project anything more than that.

Why do this then? Why not absolutely take it to the next level and charge through the nose for it?

Is this being designed for families with small children or will people in their 30s be able to enjoy this as well?

I want something Star Wars immersive for the hardcore adult Star Wars fans. I'll pay top dollar for it too.

Because they can't maintain the immersion anyway in the parks. Why bother to keep that story going on the trip to/from the park?

The concept was you'd be in the park with every other day guest. And it's a place you can freely visit outside of the Star Wars resort package. It's not part of the idea that you are anywhere but at dhs. You can easily be transported to/from dhs like every other wdw resort guest.

There is no need to have the resort near DHS. A nice to have... but not a need for the concept as pitched.

Missed opportunity then. Suspension of disbelief goes a long way.

My guess is they'll still charge top dollar and just settle for the more easily impressed guest.
