News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

If that happens they will probably remove a lot of the interactive elements and just make it a standard Star Wars themed hotel.

THIS. I fully expect that this interactive experience will continue for years, until it no longer makes $$$ sense for The Mouse; then it will transition into a regular hotel, albeit SW themed. Then we can wax poetic on here about how great it was, like the Adventurer's Club or the Imagination pavilion...

Or, this could be treated murder mystery style. Alter and change the stories over time so that it encourages repeat visitors and promises a new experience.

Remember that Star Wars takes place a long time ago, so apparently before ADA rules were adopted.

Most droids need ramps.....even R2D2 can go down steps, but, I've never seen him climb stairs

C3PO will carry him.....

What if... this gets built and it's packed for the first 6-12 months, and then occupancy drops like a rock? I just don't see this having a long lifespan without needing to update/change/freshen things up on a regular basis. That costs money, which we know TDO is often loathe to do because it negatively affects their bottom line. I just can't see a near-endless stream of SW fans spending the $$$ to pack this hotel for years and years and years with the missteps Disney has made with the franchise.

The more they make it actor based... the easier it is to tweak and modify without big capital improvements. Reasons to use actors over tech... but we will see...

They “retcond” him with frickin rockets. He could go anywhere he wants.

He climbs stairs in ANH. Its pretty comical.

Kathleen Kennedy has practically removed R2 & C3 from the franchise, so I don't guess it matters.

IIRC, he goes down stairs in ANH. He climbs stairs in AOTC (after Anakin and Padmé land on Naboo).

Do we know where the grading and storm drain relocation will take place?

I would assume where they have cleared the land for the hotel.

I found the storm drain in the plans, it is roughly here:

Thats the perfect amount of snark.

IIRC, he goes down stairs in ANH. He climbs stairs in AOTC (after Anakin and Padmé land on Naboo).

And he has rocket thrusters up until AotC at least. No need for ramps.

It actually wasn't meant to be snarky.

Not taken as snarky here...
