They said dairy and 90º weather activity didn't mix so they looked for an alternative that could keep it an essential item that it should be for everyone.

I will show you the canon!
Why do you need to bring logic to this? My dream is shattered now.They said dairy and 90º weather activity didn't mix so they looked for an alternative that could keep it an essential item that it should be for everyone.
Mine is too, I can't stand any milk that isn't dairyI will show you the canon!

This is a hell of a betrayal. Star Wars and Pepsi products was always the classic brand tie-in.
they advertised hanging them on your christmas tree, too
and i was like you fuckers that shit is way to heavy for a bendy-ass pine branch
Oh shit I just had a vivid flashback to a specific car park in the early 2000s that had one of these.
Irn-Bru is MCU canon.
Ha I just googled that because I've not seen endgame yet, neat touch.
Yup, I had all of those for a few years before they started to dent kicking around my roomThis is a hell of a betrayal. Star Wars and Pepsi products was always the classic brand tie-in.
Ah, sorry if I spoiled that.Ha I just googled that because I've not seen endgame yet, neat touch.
Nah, I'm glad you told me. I probably would miss it if I didn't know hahaAh, sorry if I spoiled that.
I was giddy when I spotted it! Obviously the Russo's wanted to continue the nod after the whole kebab thing on Cockburn Street.
Yep I'm a student at Strathclyde so I definitely witnessed that. And Idris Elba here for Hobbes and Shaw!Nah, I'm glad you told me. I probably would miss it if I didn't know haha
It's really cool having little nods like that, usually big budget stuff filmed here is as a different country. I remember watching George Square get turned into Philadelphia for World War Z.
From what I read in the local news, dairy wouldn't work too well, and they kind of sound like a daiquiri:
Aye, forgot about that I was on holiday when they were filming last year.Yep I'm a student at Strathclyde so I definitely witnessed that. And Idris Elba here for Hobbes and Shaw!
Is this... surprising to you?So I guess cosplay is now an in-canon concept as well. People in the Star Wars universe dress up like Jedis and prance around with fake lightsabers.
It just seems like a really strained contrivance done in the name of theme park immersion......that will probably ruin immersion anyway. If I see a gift shop selling lightsabers and Jedi Robes I am not going to feel like "Oh wow I am in the Star Wars universe!"Is this... surprising to you?
Jedi are like these legendary people right? If you want to become a Jedi you go and train with them or something? People are aware that they exist. You don't think little kids who have been told fantastical stories about Jedi would dress up and play as them?
Ahhhh I see where you're coming from. I've never been super into Star Wars so it's not really anything I've thought about before, but I can understand now why it would come off as forced and shitty by introducing it outside of the movies/canon. Thanks for the reply!It just seems like a really strained contrivance done in the name of theme park immersion......that will probably ruin immersion anyway.

Having shops that sell wizard robes and wands works for Wizarding World of Harry Potter because those shops are an enshrined part of JK Rowling's canon, featured heavily in the films and novels. Building gift shops and then trying to cram them into Star Wars canon doesn't work because those elements have not been established at all in previous canon. It's clearly a post-hoc justification to sell merchandise.
"Shitty" is a bit too harsh. I just wish they would decide whether they want the park to be a fully-immersive cinematic canon-abiding experience......or just a bunch of awesome rides and shops that aren't intimately connected to Star Wars canon and its universe.Ahhhh I see where you're coming from.

I had them all. I collected most of them through vending machines. I do remember buying cases of the diet Pepsi, despite diet giving me a headache, just to get the cans I needed. Sadly, most of my cans were destroyed in a move when my uncle 'unknowingly' placed a really heavy box on top of them, crushing them. I say unknowingly but he is a Trekkie, so probably did it on purpose :).This is a hell of a betrayal. Star Wars and Pepsi products was always the classic brand tie-in.

As far as I know, the Wizarding World doesn't really follow the "everything here is canon" line of thinking that Galaxy's Edge does though. It's's just fun attractions that create immersion precisely because they are shockingly accurate recreations of what we've already seen in the films.I don't see it too different from the contrivance that the Wizarding World is giving Muggles tours or letting them into these hidden places. The storyline for Universal's parks is during the movie timelines and the wizarding world wants to be especially hidden then.
