DHS Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance

[THE Monorail Lime]

Where’s the maintenance area for rise?

I know that boarding groups have been distributed before park opening, but does anyone know if all you have to do is check into a park, not just DHS to be eligible?

Next to the AT-AT hanger. On the ground floor at the Falcon end of the building.

It has to be DHS.

Next to the AT-AT hanger.

Basically hiding in plain site. I’m guessing it’s past those doors that close.

It quite possibly is.

Theres actually two sets of doors to the bay.

Dude I didn’t even notice that...

Also is it just me or could those first two troopers have been AAs instead? Just a minor thing.

I imagine that it's because as good as AAs can be, certain movements just don't look as good. Probably why the Potter rides contain so few AAs other than the queue ones. I'll give them a pass on Hagrids AAs as the attraction is so fun, however this place would be in melt down were there AAs in ROTR that clearly on a pole underneath them. That's no criticism of either Universal or Disney, but just a fact of life with current 'affordable' technology.

In all fairness there’s a smoke effect that’s currently off that’s supposed to hide the pole. Apparently it was messing with the rides sensors so it’s off until they find a workaround.

The name doesn't really make sense. "Rise" of the Resistance? What are they doing to rise?

Recruiting more people to the Resistance after their defeat at Crait, rising from the ashes so to speak.

The closest thing I've seen to the laser blast effect are the spinning lights to simulate "blasts" flying at you only in this scene:

These effects also exist in the AT-AT scene, but have been turned off/not working in WDW from the ride throughs I've seen. I genily am worried that this attractions will be like Indy within a year or 2, with a list of effects that no longer work, because Disney won't pay to fix them.

Whither this pole?

Good to hear as it looks pretty weird with the pole so visible. Why they can't put some 'junk' around the floor, or some plants temporarily is completely lost on me though.

Whither this pole?

Under the Skrewt.

 

[mergatroid]

Whither this pole?

The 34 second mark under this big scorpion looking thing

I actually see that now in @DoubleJ21's post. That is always a concern I have with rides in general. Ride it too soon and experience long lines and breakdowns or wait a while and experience dead effects.

It's also used in at least two spots in the AT-AT scene.

These four rides I’ve had were so great I don’t want anything to change (for the worse). Don’t let effects go unfixed and PLEASE don’t try to push more people through the preshows and cause backups!!! I love how no one is there when getting to the shuttle or stepping into the Star Destroyer. That last one there could occasionally still be stragglers taking it all in but mostly it’ll be empty.

It will necessarily accelerate a bit but shouldn’t be like HM load.

Watching to POV to see what I missed, does anyone else think Kylo is kinda just silly in this attraction? In the scene with Hux, Kylo goes “You underestimate their convictio-RAISE THE SHIELDS” and it sounds very panicked and awkward

not to mention he says “there’s nowhere to run” and we immediately get away

I think half of the reason I don’t like this ride is that they did my man Ben dirty

Kylo Ren always is more talk than action... have you seen the movies?

I giggle every time he “dances around” before the hull breach and the set piece from Earthquake hides him. Obviously too many screens are a bad thing. But AA just can’t mimic all types of motions realistically. In the end you gotta meet it half way and just enjoy the balance they’ve struck... I think they nailed it.

Well he did go after us and then shove his Lightsaber through the ceiling then caught up to us and would’ve had us if that stray ship didn’t blow a hole to space. Also it makes sense to want to raise the shields when a fleet that big is coming in. If anything this is the first time they did him right since TFA. He actually feels like a legitimate threat. Not on Vader’s level but still.
