Fantastic scenery and shopping experiences but in reality everyone will just head for the one ride just like Pandora Land and Flights of Passage.

I think the whole thing looks absolutely incredible! I’m not even a big Star Wars fan but I can’t wait 😊

I don’t think watching videos of Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge does the area justice.
I’m not a big Star Wars fan but when you actually walk into this new land you cant help but be amazed by the attention to detail and at first it is almost sensory overload, something that a video, will struggle to convey. Edited at 02:14 PM. |

Its amazing how much Disney can hype a bunch of themed shops and restaurants - oh, and one simulator ride. I mean, sure, it looks great but it’s not like there are many attractions actually there.
Also, it’s funny how we complain about queuing for a ride but then I’ll eagerly watch a couple of YouTube videos showing someone walking through a new ride queue.

Well I’ve just watch a live feed of what I presume is the smugglers run ride. It looks very much like star tours with a much bigger screen (looking through the windows of the millennium falcon). I wasn’t far off.

You have to factor in that what you do in Smugglers Run actually affects the outcome.. you can even crash the Falcon and when you cone off the ride everyone will know as apparently arms etc go off telling everyone else how bad you did...

Should you not wait until you experience it first hand? These things are always ten times better in person, video can't really fully translate the actual experience.
Two rides for a new land isn't exactly unprecedented. Diagon Alley opened with one (the Hogwarts Express isn't inside the land), Hogsmeade opened with one new ride. Plus the 2 rides in Galaxy's Edge are both going to be top level attractions compared to other lands like Pandora where there's one E ticket and a lesser supporting ride. |

I am not a Star Wars fan, I have only ever seen one of the films, but I think it looks great! The thing that I appreciate most about Disney is the absolute attention to detail with their theme-ing. I am not a fan of Avatar either but Pandora is absolutely incredible, and while I didn't enjoy Navi that much, Flight of Passage was incredible.
I can't wait to see Star Wars land in California this September and Florida next May to see the detail and be fully immersed. I also can't wait to try the rides, as mentioned, they are supposed to be incredibly advanced and I imagine they are going to be even better than FOP
