It seems like this may end up surprisingly being a lot like Grizzly River Run, in that:

  • You are grouped with people you sort of have to communicate with - friendly folks make it better.
  • You don't know who's going to really get wet / do well at the controls, which may make or break the experience for you.

Or being trapped with strangers on Mickey's Fun Wheel of Death.

GE article in the LA Times:

Mostly stuff we've heard but a couple of interesting things:

"Once a time window expires, park employees dressed as “Star Wars” characters will politely tell parkgoers that they need to leave the land to make way for new visitors. Disneyland representatives say they expect that most guests will abide by the courteous directions to move on. But they remain mum about what will happen if guests ignore the requests.

I imagine park security would move these folks along. Will GE have it's own security team in Stars Wars garb?

"The buildings look aged and war-ravaged, and the rocky hoodoos that dot the landscape are meant to resemble the remnants of giant petrified trees. The roar of spaceships landing and taking off blasts from hidden speakers."

Stands to reason that background sounds will be part of the environment. What else will we hear?

Park representatives have not disclosed whether they will limit how many times park visitors can ride the Millennium Falcon attraction during each four-hour window. If the ride breaks down during the three-week reservation period, Disneyland will make amends to the guests, park representatives said, but no details have been provided yet.

It's a dead certainty that there will be teething problems. How Disney handles this is going to be tricky.

"Disneyland officials have not decided how long into the future they will require the virtual queueing system for the land, hinting that it may be deployed as long as the Star Wars land is in high demand."

A LONG Time.

So.. with that many people entering the land at a specific time, there will be qeues to get a wristband right? So if you’re the last one to get a wristband of your timeslot, you have less time?

I *think* they'll give you a wristband when you enter the park or at the hotel.

That is why they'll probably ask you to line up 30-90 mins before your time slot.
