5 Ways to Fix Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge Features Film Threat
Adventure. Excitement. A Jedi craves these things! Disneyland's newest theme park, Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge, should've been a huge hit after the exclusive reservation period ended. But the new park has been met with criticism from fandom because it feels, well, empty. And not just empty when it...

Wonder where that'll be in the ride. Presumably it's Resistance, so I'd assume the queue or ending.

For some reason it reminds me of that old Quentin Tarantino movie where the girl had a gun for a leg...only his gun is where his...er...um...belly button would be.

Thanks for the correction, I should have known that as I do love me a good Tarantino flick. Rodriguez has done some amazing things, don’t get me wrong, but Tarantino has had a bigger impact on me over the years.

he's the pilot of the transport ship you get captured on. Essentially the ROTR stretching room.

That was my first thought, but haven't we heard that's Nien Nunb or am I misremembering things?
My guess is whoever leaked that detail got their SW aliens mixed up.

I thought we were being recruited by Princess Leia and Ray. Who's this lady? Aren't there any real characters in Galaxy Edge?

Vi Moradi is one of the few walk-around characters in Galaxy's Edge. Which does make it odd that she has to speak to you via hologram if you're both on Batuu...

She's got stuff to do elsewhere in the base.

This reminds me of how counterintuitive it is to do original stuff with very well known IP. We get on ROTR and the villain is Kylo Ren yet we have this obscure character Vi Moradi that “Scott Trowbridge” made up talking to us via hologram? I think the imagineers think that it somehow gives more weight and believability to Batuu being this real place. But In reality I just think it waters down the experience. People want to see the characters they know in STAR WARS land. I don’t think combining original characters with known ones from the movie is a good idea, especially humanoids. People would be much more excited seeing a Leia hologram there or something. Again this is the imagineers putting this damn Batuu story nobody cares about before fans/ human beings desires.
Honestly my takeaway from Batuu is that when creating a land based on IP you have to go ALL IN because you have already set an expectation of what fans/ guests are going to see. If you re not going ALL in you may as well just create an original land not based on IP. In themed entertainment, I’m not sure you can split the difference.
