I'm interested to see what real people say about it. People that aren't vloggers being pressured to say nice things.

Also be nice to see someone comment on what the First Order story is like on board. Not one of the vloggers I've seen did them and I only saw resistance stuff. Only heard that storyline mentioned.

Len: “this may be underpriced”

 

[BrianLo]

You know... I'm really starting to wonder if this is actually a success. Len has almost done a 180 in some ways.

Was lentesta saying the vloggers were all lying and this was a terrible the other day or am I getting him confused with somebody else? Apologies if so.

He basically said not to buy initial reviews because they're not allowed to be negative

He's raving about how great it is now! I assume we'll be told by the naysayers that he's been bought by Disney or is embarrassed to admit he wasted his money so he's lying by saying how fantastic it is now?

For now, we'll have to wait until the next episode of Disney Dish for Len to give his final thoughts on Galactict Starcruiser.

Pretty sure that guy is a Disney Parks nerd first and foremost.

He is, but he's also not a Disney apologist by any means.

He's also someone who really enjoys this type of interactive theme park experience: http://www.parkscope.net/2022/02/gearing-up-for-star-wars-galactic.html

I'm interested in his assessment because he's going to bring a willingness to truly engage with the experience, and is going to expect a certain level of being immersed.

When is it hitting the fan? Doing my best to find negative reports from paying guests?

Seeing people enjoying their time on the Galactic Starcruiser tells me it's possible for some to make it worth it. The caveats appear to be that you need to have the disposable income and are willing to fully commit to the story.

I hope this is successful and I hope it evolves.
