Despite an underwhelming performance since the public opening day, it appears Disney didn't plan their inventory too well as they're already running out of not just stupid plush toys and coasters, but ever since opening day they've apparently been running out of lightsabers and droid parts in their build-a-bear stores which is leading to rumors that the build-a-lightsaber and droid workshops will be closed down until they can restock. I understand that on both the reservation opening day and the public opening day there were a shit ton of people compared to the lackluster days that followed, but even so I expected Disney to be better prepared for bullshit like this considering that they expected these parks to be more overcrowded than Honk Kong for years to come. Its almost as if Disney-Lucasfilm was either more incompetent than usual or were actually banking on these parks failing. Also more and more articles and youtube reviews are coming out pointing out the park's small crowds and others criticizing it more negatively now and its all a quick search engine away.

Among other items that are running out or sold out are dejarik boards, loth cats (still), chewbacca dolls, R-series heads are running out but BB-8 heads are still abundant as droid parts, no lightsaber crystals except red and blue (but red is scarce), sabacc cards, no droid backpacks, no droid personality chips and Han's nu-dice. Also the lightsaber replicas of Luke, Kenobi, Windu, Vader and Rey (they're seriously calling Anakin's saber "Rey's saber"...) are sold out while Emo Ren's lightsaber replicas just collect dust. Wooden stormtroopers from Rogue One aren't selling, what a shock.

The park is 50% stores and 50% restaurants. Without merch that just make half this park an even bigger lot of nothing than what it was before. What the fuck is Disney doing? And I have to ask again, who the fuck is this park made for? Its not for oldschool fans, its not for hardcore fans, it barely qualifies as fitting for normalfags, its barely for sequel fags since its not based on anything from the sequels, its not remotely for OT purists, and disney park enthusiasts aren't loving it either, so who is this for again? Is this just Kennedy's personal wish fulfillment? Seriously, who is this park for?!

They even gave him clone armor? For fuck's sake.

I can't wait for Disney to release their new and improved special edition with Ahsoka and yellow Yoda like in the new novel adaptations of the OT too...

Edit: Wait...
Looks like the Porg fag from the new story group says its not to be taken seriously.
Its just a shitty tease and apparently GoA isn't to be taken seriously.

Eh, the Clone armour is a bit over the top, I agree. They might've added it so the viewers (kids are the primary target audience iirc) immediately realise it's Rex.
The theory has been around since we saw old Rex in Rebels and it actually makes sense too. I don't see a reason to complain about it or not make it canon, but I can't argue with the feminists&allies storyboard of nu-Lucasfilm I guess. Maybe they consider Rex to be a sexist stereotype, a not-shit character or something equally bigoted.
 
What do we think they will reveal at comic-con about TRoS? I'm hoping that we get more about Keri Russell.
Nothing a real fan of Star Wars would ever want is my guess. Unrelated but there was a new revelation of how Mark was not well treated during TLJ filming: In a tweet Mark revealed he he did the motion stuff for a minor character... remember the drunkard at the Casino who thought BB-8 was a slot machine? Yeah that was the one he was talking about
 
Well there's not much else I can offer on Galaxy's Edge that's not already being covered on mainstream media.

More and more articles and youtubers are either pointing out its decline, criticizing it harshly (including devout Disney lovers and websites that would normally blame this shit on russianbots and whatnot) or trying to make up excuses as to why its undercrowded, so I guess they can't use the old blame game now so they have to blame it all on fatigue.

All I can offer now is info on really trivial shit around the park if you all still want that and stuff at Dok Ondar's store which is on the inaccessible second floor much to the annoyance of many visitors and has been a continued source of criticism for old school fans.
 
Edit: Oh god, maybe that would be a good idea for the future of Disney and to motivate Producers not to make shitty movies. Built such a vault and fill it up with the money made off their movie's theatrical run. Then have to Producer jump into the vault. If it was a great success, he'll land safely. If it was a Solo-like bomb, he'll smash into the ground and be obliterated.

So something like this

I'm not surprised he hates Rian. Like how evil do you have to be to disrespect Mark fucking Hamil like that?
 
You can bet your ass we still haven't still heard all about how he was mistreated in the last few years by the Rat's House and it's minions

Isn't it funny how George Lucas owning your likeness (Carrie has an amazing bit on this in her book and stand up special) turned out to not be the worst thing imaginable?
 
The whole thing about too many porgs at GE, for whatever reason (I assume autism or alcohol-related brain damage) makes me think of the Boatmurdered playthrough for Dwarf Fortress, and the one guy ranting about 'look how many fucking elephants we have!'. Except in this case, it's 'if you like fucking porgs, have we got a show for you.'

Say, @StarkRavingMad, was that you or someone else with the same handle? Because suddenly I have this great image of Al Swearengen trying to manage a Star Wars park...

Anyways.

What book was this? Postcards From The Edge? Or something else?

He's probably referring to Wishful Drinking.
 
I just remembered a bit of obscure japanese theme park trivia. Back in the 90's, Namco had their own theme park called Wonder Eggs, and most of the rides were naturally themed after their video game franchises of the time, like Tower of Druaga.

The big motherfucker of all rides in it was Galaxian3, a combination of arcade light-gun shooter and hydraulic thrill ride that housed 28 players. Footage of it in action can be seen right at the beginning of this old promo vid, which I'll let speak for itself:

As far as I know, you couldn't game over. So you got to play the whole game without worrying about failure. Instead you were merely graded on how many ships you shot down, and also how many times you were hit.

Sadly the park was closed down and demolished back in '00, and the ride along with it.

Basically what I'm saying is Namco made the best Star Wars ride ever and Disney will never think to try anything like it.
Keeping in the Disney Parks sperg orbit they had one of the stationary Galaxian 3 units at the Contemporary for a while.
 
Yup Wishful Drinking


"As I've gone along, people will come to me and say, "We got the licensing from George Lucas to make these socks." So my daughter can walk around on my face. I was shopping at Williams-Sonoma, and they're selling little sticks of Princess Leia that you put in your cupcake. Who wouldn't need those? I paid for it. How much money could I have made from all this stuff? I don't want to know. It's too upsetting. Yet funny. For example, I found out recently that I am a type of marijuana. A friend of my daughter's actually went to one of those medical places, and she told me there was a type of marijuana named Princess Leia. I never liked marijuana, so the fact that I'm a type of marijuana is ironic."
