DHS Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance

[Disney Analyst]

Can someone clarify. Are there two holding cells total, and 2 dispatch rooms with 2 cars each? Or are there 4 holding cells and 4 dispatch rooms with 2 cars each?

Thank you! I finally have the ammunition I need to take down those doubting the theoretical/goals of hourly capacity haha.

It is a big surprise to suddenly arrive outside, and seeing the Lieutenant Bek animatronic again is cool:

There were lots of Youtubbers out yesterday morning. I saw @przidentkendall of DSNY Newscast, Rob Plays, @Disnerd2003 of Mickey Views , Michael Kay and others.

There were more characters walking around last night than I've seen before, including quite a few X-wing pilots just standing around talking with guests:

On the 'stage' around the X-wing near the Rise of the Resistance entrance some characters were just talking and checking the ship. Some of these people were in the opening ceremony on Wednesday:

They were playing loud Star Wars music in this area, which was surprising as there are usually just sounds. This may have something to do with the X-wing drones though, as this was the area where people were waiting for the drones. Not sure if they will continue to play music like this:

Thanks for the pics, but the image of the YouTubers makes me cringe.

...you are standing on a rotating platform when you enter the shuttle. The whole interior is rotating while you are flying and being captured.

I presume there's a set of exit doors into a backstage hallway lined up with the shuttle when it's in the "in flight" position? There'd have to be for fire safety, etc reasons, right?

If Rise is all that's needed to turn GE around, then by opening with Falcon first, they unknowingly designed an experiment that has all the controls in place (same Star Wars IP, same pricy theming) to demonstrate that people prefer RIDES that aim to overwhelm you, rather than simulators. (And I like the Falcon!)

The next generation of executives will understand what a home run means, and their egos will crave more to claim as their own.

I agree personally but Flight of Passage is doing wonders and it’s a simulator. I think it depends if the simulator is good or not.

Park hours have been extended, starting Dec 9th, the park will open at 8am instead of 9am. Maybe they will start actually opening at the time they list by then?

Standing in front of ROTR and it's (still) down at 8pm. Can't use super FP so issued a new one for tomorrow and a PH ticket.

If people time it right, they could end up with tons of park hoppers. Get that free Disney vacation.

I don’t know if this has been said before on this forum but about a week before ROTR opening the ride supposedly kept catching on fire, which is why there were also no cast previews

I don’t believe this is true.

Down for the night.

 

[Rob562]

...yep. See the door circled in orange.

Hmmmm... That only appears to be 90° from the outside shuttle door. Is it possible there's actually four shuttle cabins rather than three?

True story. They finally replaced the laser blasters on the ATAT with fake ones and the problem was solved . Verified by a bus driver
