Any chance this could come over?
I would expect more "streetmosphere" and little shows for sure. I wouldn't expect free roaming droids but I would expect some droids out with their "owners" for pics and stuff. We know the restaurant is coming but it will be a ways off with Disneys building speed. I just can't see them opening WDW GE the same way DL opened.This, some roaming droids and the sit down restaurant with a couple AA's should do it. Let's cross those fingers that it'll happen!
I wondered the same thing...but I couldn’t come up with a way to address it. My “servos overloaded”??? OK, not to be a jerk but did you even read what you quoted? How would a ride that had force ghosts of luke and yoda not be immersive? No one is asking to have Anakin and Vader walking around together. So I'm guessing by your fantastical logic, if they had a force cave, where Vader, Maul or some other sith came out, that would "ruin the immersion"? Not only would it not ruin the immersion, people would love it. These are just a few obvious ways to keep immersion and have some OT flair. I'm sure the Imagineers could have come up with some great ideas but my guess is they were not given the opportunity.
They are. They always were.I agree with you and honestly just think Star Wars fans are some of hardest to please and the toughest critics.
Yes...and it’s where the IP failure lies. Didn’t deliver .Ding ding ding! We have a winner! unfortunately it will fall on deaf ears.
But you’re a gen x...which means you’re “not the target” and you’re “too old to get excited” and every other anti OT fan defense(embarrassing) for a really pathetic effort on the ST and the NTI was fully immersed in Star Tours in 1986 and continue to be today. I was immersed in both Harry Potter lands. I was immersed at the Star Trek:Experience in Las Vegas 20 years ago.
I'm actually quite easy to please.
Walking through what another poster called "a deserted movie set" has not immersed me for even a moment.

You might be right. I just don't see them not adding in some extra flair. They have the droids, so why not bring them out for photo ops. If they open 100% like DL like you say, expect the same type of reactions. I know Disney is stubborn and they know better than everyone, but do they really want the same response? It's not about GE failed or is horrible but more about making a bigger better PR splash.I'm about 100% certan that it will open in WDW the same way it opened in DL.
Yes, they may make some slight adjustments after lessons learned at DL, but I doubt we will see any significant additions in terms of live actors or droids.
Is there any reason to believe that they ACTUALLY have droids "ready to go"?
Because R2 units have been out in the studios for years.Is there any reason to believe that they ACTUALLY have droids "ready to go"?

But those are the droids I was referring to in my posts about them that he was responding to. Not autonomous droids, but droids and their "owners" out and about for photos. The autonomous droids I would bet, never show up. Attended droids would be a simple, quick way to add life to the land.I don't think those are the droids rsm is referring to. Typical astromech style droids need an attendant/pilot. Disneyland tested autonomous droids for a while around Star Wars Launch Bay, with the assumed/rumored intention of using them in GE.
I'm praying we get some pic's tomorrow from the CM soft-opening. Im curious about the X-Wing placement etc.
