THE 1HAPPY HAUNT

Again, there are certain limitations of telling a story within a theme park. It doesn’t make sense to why’d you see hundreds of other people lining up to fly a ship with only 6 seats. Or that there EXIT signs in the Millenium Falcon. It’s a visual illusion we choose to believe in, as you have to overlook certain aspects that are unavoidable.

Not sure, but very likely as it won’t be a reservation slot, but more like a normal queue of people translated to a digital queue. So when 50 guests leave the land, 50 more will be able to enter. Not that exactly, but a similar concept.


Interesting lighting tests going on tonight:

You make some good points. I was just sharing a different point of view. Thank you for having a good rebuttal in a non antogonizing way that leads to a good open discussion. I appreciate your point of view

Possibly but between the reports and the 38 inch height requirement it’s not looking good. I’m not even a huge fan of Star Tours. I just expected the Falcon ride to be a more thrilling version of it. I mean it’s the FALCON after all. It sounds like everything amazing about this ride is really the Queue and the Falcon parked outside which is kind of what I expected. And I guess the whole interactive video game thing if you re into that. We’ll see.

Point taken on the height requirement. I'm hoping for a good balance of thrills and consideration of youngling sensibilities. But I don't think there's any chance that the iconic Falcon ride wasn't going to be child-friendly. Children are the future (customers).

Its not schtick. It is valid logical complaint based on the story disney has set up. I am allowed to critique all i want. You are no one of authority to tell someome to "cut it out". My opinions are just as valid as yours. If you don't care to read them then by all means place me on ignore but to me the ignore button is for people who can't accept a differing point of view that goes against their own. Which indicates closed mindedness. I am free to express my concerns as freely as you are. I dont wish you harm nor do i wish to have an argument. I just wanted to share with the group another way to look at things. I will wish you a good night because i am done addressing your attempts to belittle me.

If you don't want to hear on a public forum that people are tired of you spamming your point over and over again (a schtick), then you can put me on ignore.

My 3 year old can ride the Falcon today if he wanted to lol (or if I wanted him to). I’m not talking anything crazy. Im talking like a 40 -42 inch height limit and something more thrilling than Star Tours. Not less

Can you explain in what manner you want it to be more thrilling than star tours? Are we talking having it go upside down like the falcon sometimes does when it flies in the movies or are you meaning more movents as you get in Indiana Jones Adventure. Like more frequent movements? I am not giving you a hard time just curious as to what your expectations are.

Oh, that's what I want for myself too. But with only two rides in this huge new land, practically, one really has to be young child-friendly. Maybe if they had squeezed in a Porg petting zoo ...

Well upside down for a few seconds would be great lol but no I’m talking just more movement in general in all directions. More exaggerated movement. The Millenium Falcon should defintley have more movement than a Star Speeder.

I am less concerned with the falcon being thrilling than I am about Rise of the Risistance being thrilling. Anyone else feel the same? Like trackless technology is cool and all but they don't scream at me "fast vehicle with losts of movement like Indy!" To me, Indiana Jones sets the bar for what a modern E Ticket dark ride should be. Now granted we have not seen much footage of the RISE ride vehicle in action except that promo clip of it going in to the AT-AT room but it looks slow. I get there will be some outstanding AA's in the ride but I just dont get a 'thrilling' vibe from the ride description and little footage shown. I know there is supposed to be a drop but I got a feeling it wont be anything like Mission Breatout's drop and more like the old parachute ride drop from Knott's Berry back in the day. Anyone else habe a similar comcern? Just curious.

I actually feel quite the opposite. I’m totally fine with ROTR being the more mild attraction with a “thrilling” finale since it has the huge sets, AAs, trackless ride system etc.

The Falcon is a glorified video game with movement. It needs the thrill. Plus it’s like...the FALCON!!!

Also, does anyone have an update on Rise of the Resistance? Could that be a June 24th kinda thing? :hungry:

NO, NO and NO.

There are serious issues with the attraction and Disney is trying to address them, and has no firm date.

Comments like later this year, someone said end of August, but no firm date has been stated, and the vagueness can be addressed as "Things are always subject to change without notice", so it could be 2020... Noe, Disney wants it open, and is doing its best, but until they can figure out a solution, then test it, and try it out, NOBODY knows when it will open. IMHO, late August is the earliest it will open.
