@fall0ndjarin: Agree or disagree? #starwars #starwarsfan #galaxysedge #disneyworld #hollywoodstudios

Jeff Johnston :

Compare Galaxy’s Edge to what Universal does for Harry Potter. Night and day. One is immersive, the other feels like Six Flags.

attackofthetoys :

I agree with you but after getting back after my last trip to Disneyland, having the OG music playing in the background definitely makes it feel so much better

Tiny Dancer :

I completely disagree. I literally wept the first time I was there because of the immersion. We literally go just to be in the environment and don’t even need the rides to enjoy

anduewnvu :

Their problem was making a bet on new/unproven parts of the franchise. Just making Mos Eisley would’ve been a layup. And making Rise of the Resistance the same ride system, but centering it around Rebels vs Empire and making Vader a central character would’ve been better. And they actually still have a cool opportunity to take the concept of Hogwarts Express and do a spaceship transport to AK for Endor, Naboo, Kashyyyk, or whatever.

fartman194 :

I never once in my life thought I would ever experience Star Wars outside of VHS tapes. Galaxy’s Edge is awesome. I’m sure it’s even more awesome when you’re 6 years old.

weaseltowncomics :

I think the real issue with Galaxy’s Edge is the lack of consistent live entertainment. At any point during the day, there should be larger First Order marches, shootouts between stormtroopers and Resistance fighters/Chewy on the rooftops, or a full on confrontation between Rey and Kylie Ren (maybe on the stage by his ship). It needs to feel more alive. Right now, you basically get the occasional Kylo Ren walkthrough or Rey and Chewy fixing the Millennium Falcon.

D :

They are actually quite similar when you account for everything Olga's cantina, making a lightsaber, making a droid, evening projection show and themed music for fireworks (in California). Two of the most immersive rides ever built. It stacks up quite well against any other themed land. Yes I want more, but that'll always be true

ashley_brownn :

It’s because it’s based on the newer trilogy, I love Star Wars but not a huge fan of the newer trilogy, even stuff based on the prequels would have been awesome

steveemshoff :

All Disney does is slap “Star Wars” on something and expect it to sell without any effort on their part.

user1890161058745 :

My opinion in the problem with galaxy’s edge is that they didn’t take us somewhere we’ve been before. I would way rather gone to mos eisley or kashyyyk or somewhere that I recognized with characters I knew

foodliongang :

I wish it focused more on the original trilogy as well i feel like its mainly geared towards the sequels

Ms. H :

I love the immersion, but I feel like SW deserves its own full park.

dj_Sonny_Santino :

Agreed. Its a couple rides and a bunch of stores, the only truly awesome parts are the queues for rise and falcon, other than that, its just stores that dont even have cool things to buy, total bummer

Jules :

I totally agree! I love Disney, but I think they completely missed the mark. Generic is a good word for it. I felt no emotional connection to it. Changing over to the film music helped, but I still see it as a missed opportunity.

Lkk321 :

I don’t disagree, but also Disney does smaller lands to a degree.

SstarWwarsPug :

good take honestly

MainStreetMagic :

You just made an excellent argument for a galaxy’s edge expansion!! I’m emailing Josh now 😂 😂

spider_meg73 :

fully agree

Gerald Carpenter :

Galaxy’s edge is a huge miss.
