It's a definite possibility. I've met people there who still thing there's some reservation list to get in.So does that mean in September and October its gonna be jam packed?
I don't know, crows are pretty scary.While there are plenty of theories about people holding off for fear of crows but could it simply be that the level of interest just isn't there?
This new land has ONE ride
$200 to build a light saber - which looks cheap and is a light show with Yodas voice.
$100 to build your own $30.00 droid.
$8 for "blue milk" that apparently tastes like crap
$12 for a "hot dog wrap" themed to Star Wars
What did they expect?????
Two hundred dollars for a lightsaber? That's kinda silly - and by kinda I mean "what the heck are they thinking with that price tag?"
Dusneyland crows never hurt nobody
So what about the rest of the park being quiet?While there are plenty of theories about people holding off for fear of crowds but could it simply be that the level of interest just isn't there?
It's not some plastic saber you get at Walmart or elsewhere in the park. It's made of metal with lighting and sound. Throw in the kyber crystal, pin that represents the saber you got, and the carrying bad and it's actually a great deal.Two hundred dollars for a lightsaber? That's kinda silly - and by kinda I mean "what the heck are they thinking with that price tag?"
From my understanding, you have to make a reservation too, and if you cancel or fail to show, they'll still charge you the 200.
So by taking away the small smoking ares, that will make the people follow rules who previously didn't?Can't speak to all of the parks, but people at Epcot would regularly not adhere to the designated areas. Around the World Showcase in particular sucked.
Nah you make the reservation when you pay and you're there. You pick your set, pay, they give you a pin and a pass card, and tell you to come back at whatever time. Depending on crowds and your party size this can be anywhere from 30 minutes to a few hours from your reservationCan you even get more predatory? Of course little kids (and a lot of big kids) are going to want to build their own lightsaber and your idea is to charge $200 and require reservations?
I bet there's a way to get one without a reservation too, like on the day, but there's a fee involved or something.

If you just want to let your kid build a cheap lightsaber, there are other options.Can you even get more predatory? Of course little kids (and a lot of big kids) are going to want to build their own lightsaber and your idea is to charge $200 and require reservations?
The fact that one of the two main attractions isn't even open is the reason I haven't bothered booking a Disney World trip for this upcoming year yet.
Yeah, these are plastic with fold out bladesIf you want an affordable custom saber at the parks then here:
But the dip in quality is extremely noticeable
SoCal is blocked entirely. Deluxe is only blocked from Disneyland, not DCAAnyone with the SoCal pass is blocked out this entire month and most of August from both parks. It's dumb and reducing returns for them. They should open up a few weekdays for pass holders and they'll be packed.
Passport blackout dates end in September and the new ride opens up around that time. If you want to go, the next couple months would be the best time.
I think we'll get an exact date at D23 in August but if I had to guess I'd say Fall as wellThe new ride opens in september? Do you have a source to confirm this. My group is going end of september. so that would make me VERY happy that I'm not missing anything.
I was told that you wouldn't be able to see shit for like two years. That's why I've avoided going.
I think Fall is hopeful. My guess would be December at the earliest. The amount of troubleshooting the ride is going to require is enormous. 4 unique ride systems is a breakdown logistical nightmare.I think we'll get an exact date at D23 in August but if I had to guess I'd say Fall as well

This is a big reason. They are getting greedy again. Increasing ticket prices, removing deals and discounts, charging for parking if you drove to stay at a resort, rumors of a paid fast pass system, et cetera.The whole park is so damned expensive nowadays, I'm priced way out of it.

This is going to be a no fun allowed post, but it blows my mind how people still go to Disneyland given how expensive it is, and how much waiting involves. And worse, the existence of Fast Pass is just downright insulting.

Is that even a ride at that point?From what I've heard about the ride, I wouldn't be surprised if it easily surpasses the Indiana Jones ride in terms of constant breakdowns.

We'll be at WDW when it opens there, worried that the reported low crowds at DL will entice more people to brave it.
You can just buy one of the ones from the movies in the same quality with the same blades, yes. But not the custom ones.Can you even get more predatory?

I admit I haven't bothered with the food, but the pricing on it is equivalent to everything else in the park outside the Star Wars area. You could at least have called out the alcoholic drinks with souvenir cups that clock in at $42.
No need, it's default.
