Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge (Disney's Hollywood Studios)

[GAcoaster]

I'm hearing there may be a soft opening on Saturday morning...

Hoping for softs this Sunday....what’s the word today? Still closed?

I'm guessing acceptance and satisfaction of GESWL and Smugglers Run in DHS will be better than Disneyland, in part, because expectations are a bit lower than they were when California opened.

Heard a story today (not sure if true or not) that a group of of about 20 Disney CP cast members snuck into RotR the other day and all got fired.

A group of "20" is a bit too many to be "sneaking" into anywhere without getting caught.

What did they think was going to happen? Be able to cycle through the ride? :thud:

At the same time... they did get caught. And fired. Supposedly.

I could buy if there was only a few that tried to sneak in, but 20 just seems to be a bit far fetched to be believed.

Heck, they were probably going back to college this week anyway. Not like flipping hamburgers or guarding fastpass line internships are going to get you a good job after graduation anyways.

This is actually very possible... one of the College Program terms that goes from January to August ends right around now. I did that very program.

"Modal Notes" sounds fantastic. The rest... not so much. "Mad About Mad About Me" tries to fix what wasn't broken. But whoever worked on "Modal Notes" earned their paycheck and then some.

Does the playlist really not feature the classic versions of "Cantina Band" and "Cantina Band 2" anywhere?

Are you referring to the in-park experience or the album? If the latter, I’d assume they thought people would just download the tracks from the A New Hope soundtrack proper.

I'm talking about what is actually heard inside Oga's.

So I have heard (take it for what it’s worth) that there will be no soft opening. Disney wants a big line for opening day to show the media that Galaxy’s Edge is a hit.

A soft opening could reduce opening day crowds.

This makes sense, actually. If locals go to a soft opening (like me), I’m not going on opening day.

Haven’t they already been having soft openings? Bio and others have been allowed in.

It was Cast and AP previews. They needed some period of previews to test the ride out with actual people.
