Are you saying Galaxies Edge is suddenly bringing in these crowds in mid October and not Peak Halloween season? Galaxies Edge (Pre ROTR) in it’s current dumbed down Chapek state is still a flop. When you open a billion dollar land and it’s a ghost town all summer and Disney quickly lifts all CM blackouts and introduces a summer AP bring a friend program... that’s a flop. We ve had multiple reports that Disney themselves were freaking out And the examples I provided above would seem to prove that.
Most people knew the crowds were going to come back during the holidays. Conflating Star Wars Land “flopping” and the current Halloween crowds is just watering down the point you were trying to make. Galaxies Edge is a Flop ( or at least not a hit ) and Disneyland is still popular. Both can be true.
I think SWGE is a hit. And most people do too.
The crowds are returning because families around the country heard about the massive crowds and rescheduled their vacations to avoid the crowds. So now we are seeing the crowds return. Also their recent huge SWGE media blitz is working.
Finally. It’s interesting when those that ride on the DLhatemachine starts cranking out “Billion dollar land is a bust!!!” Seems a little odd when the priciest feature of the land is not even open. However. Is SWGE a hit? Yes. But you’ll never concede that, so there is no point to discuss any further.
The land is PACKED this month. Yes, October is popular with Halloween, but summer is the busiest time ever. So. If you guys say that SWGE was so bad along with price hikes, people abandoned the parks. I say the summer was dead because people freaked out about the crowds and stayed away.
Let’s see who’s theory plays out more properly into October. Crowds have increased. According to you it’s because this time of year is busy. BUT. So is summer. You said summer was dead because of SWGE flop and price hikes. Welllllll. Why wouldn’t that also be the case in October???
My theory is, the parks were light in the summer because people postponed their trips due to hype everywhere. So, now, we are starting to see people who postponed a few months, starting to show up. Hence. The park is getting packed again.
My theory makes logical sense and actually holds up true for both the initial drop in attendance and holds true for the surge recently.
Yours. Fails. It’s cool though. You’re not going to change your war against SWGE. Just know your echo chamber is going to get smaller and smaller as the signs become more obvious that it’s a hit!!
Call it FAKE NEWS all you want. Everyone will be enjoying the park, including Batuu. But keep writing that fan fiction. It’s cute. A fun hobby
Meanwhile Disney is pulling in money hand over fist.
