So they're two night bookings. Does that include a day in SWL?

 

[LieutLaww]

it includes time in Batuu, they currently have not given a time frame of how long you will be there

Wow, there's a whole lot of wrong and an exceptional amount of assumption in that article!

"Mashable" article.
Is anything they ever say true?

It's like someone tried to explain the concept to him, and got the same result I got when I tried to explain LARPing to my parents during my college years.

Me: *explains LARP*
Parents: "So, it's like a murder mystery party?"
Me: "No, it's more like..." *tries again to explain LARP*
Parents: "So, it's like a murder mystery party?"
Me:

@marni1971 with the Luke warm reception to SWGE, especially seemingly by SW fans, have you heard any rumblings about reworking this, especially with its high cost?

Personally? I haven’t.

I hate when people say 3 days, 2 nights.
Isn't true if you pay attention on the check-in and check-out times.

I always just say "Three sun-filled days and two fun-filled nights".

Even if you are staying at the Travel Lodge in Fargo, North Dakota, if you add the words "sun-filled" to the number of days and "fun-filled" to the number of nights, it just makes it better regardless of your destination. Try it!

Given that they announced a name and all these details about the LARP aspects for the hotel at D23 *after* DL's SWGE had been open for several months, it's probably safe to say they don't intend to ditch the LARP or Star Wars theming based on guest responses to SWGE.

Hopefully the lessons learned from GE are to not cut corners on the hotel experience. It could be that the hotel ends up with roaming droids and aliens throughout their halls and cantina. They're certainly selling it that way right now, not that they didn't for GE too.

for $1k/night - it better all be there. More controlled environment too - way fewer people.

Jesus is that a 3? I knew there were shortages during the Soviet Union but they ran out of letters too?

How the heck do you even pronounce a 3...

"Zi" as in "kingfisher."

I'm pretty sure the only leason Disney has learned, is why include an experience for free, when you can make it an upcharge.

We recently stayed at CSR, while my brother and his wife stayed at Pop. We picked them up and dropped them off every day, and went past these rocks on sticks many, many times.

Man, they really should have tried harder here.

It's back of house what did you expect, Pandora is pretty much exactly the same. It's all down to how they create the perspective effect for viewing from the front.

 

[RobotWolf]

That not back-of-house if guests can see it under normal circumstances. It's the line where the budget ran out.

 

[Magenta Panther]

So is TDO still going to build this stupid thing?

So you're still asking stupid questions?

You can see the open scaffolding of the back of Pandora's mountains from the DAK parking lot. This is no different.

 

[RobotWolf]

The point here being that Disney used to care enough to *not* show open scaffolding. This is no longer the case.
