I agree but they'll probably need a 3rd of the movie to explain the journal of the Whills, (beginning discussions with Luke and over training montages). I'll bet most of the audience will still be left saying "huh?". Hopefully it's succinct and they pull it off.
I have high hopes for this installment. [Reply]

Huh? General fans have no idea about journal of the Whills.
Everyone knows Disney doesn't make movies for nerdy fans. And let's admit that anyone who recognizes the words "journal of the Whills" is a nerd.
It'll take some splainin' to get the concept of "grey" over to the average Ewok/ Jar Jar loving Star Wars fan. [Reply]

Here’s what we know so far:
All of the employees (or ‘cast members’, in Disney Park lingo) will be in costume and in character.
Each guest will get a storyline, which Disney specifically says will “touch every single minute of your day”
It’s meant to take place on a space ship; ‘windows’ will only show space.

Disney announces a Star Wars themed immersive resort hotel for WDW with costumes, a storyline for every guest, windows that only show space pic.twitter.com/TU7R9jIU0k

The thought is that guests will get to travel on a spaceship and have an adventure that lasts the whole stay “every minute” was the phrase
In other words, it’s… like… Westworld (or, you know, as close as anyone can get) plus Star Wars, minus all the sexy and/or murdery stuff.

I don't know if this will be in the new 14 acre Star Wars Land but there's a nasty rumor going around that Disney may charge extra for SWL and that it might not be included the regular priced Disneyland ticket. [Reply]
