So I haven't seen the movie and a lot of what you posted is lost on me until I do see the movie. It does look like (as with most Disney attractions) they paid a lot of attention to detail. As far as the ride vehicle, someone else may have said this but it looks like the same vehicle that is used in the Tron ride in Shanghai. It also sounds like the simulator that the Sovereigns use in Guardians Vol 2. I'm glad you got to go on the ride so many times!
I only saw the movie once when it first came out, but you kinda get the gist of it. The attention to detail is amazing and it's just cool to explore something so new! The ride vehicle is very similar to what the Sovereigns use in GuTG Vol 2. That is a very good analogy!
Thanks for the reviews of the food. If I eat at McDonald's I get my burgers without ketchup or mustard, so I'm not sure if I would like those variations on the pork buns. I guess they think that most people aren't adventurous enough just to eat pork buns. I'd rather have that! You got some nice photopass pictures as well. I'm really hoping that within the next month I can plan a 2018 trip to WDW an perhaps check out this cool new land. I didn't watch any videos, just because I don't want too many spoilers, but having an idea of what to expect is fun for me!
Haha surprisingly you couldn't really taste much ketchup or mustard either...it was mainly just ground beef. I think they should have just stuck with pork buns as well. It would have been more flavorful. I don't really think they are considered adventurous anymore. You see them everywhere, well at least in NYC.
Definitely check out Pandora in 2018, hopefully the crowds would die down a bit. I'm a little scared for August. hot and crowded is what I am expecting.
It's always fun visiting the parks on May the 4th, I wish we could have gone this year. I love that dress! But I have so many Star Wars and Droid dresses, I really can't justify any more of them! Too bad that the ears and such don't really fit your head. I rarely wear them either as I need something that shades my face better. Good Choice on 50's Prime time, we finally ate there and loved the Fried Chicken as well!
Thank you! May the 4th was fun although there wasn't really anything special going on a the parks aside from merchandise. All the Star Wars fans were out though!
50's Prime Time was good and satisfying. I forget how yummy the food is here as all I really remember are the "eat your veggie" shenanigans.
Loved your Star Wars May the 4th outfit! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on 50's Prime Time. We skipped it on our last trip - but I remember it fondly. We enjoyed being able to walk from Boardwalk to HS as well!
Thank you!! Will be posting 50's prime time soon. It was quite tasty!
The Boardwalk is a great location! I hope to stay there again in the future.
Yeah that's another thing I've been debating too. We have actually never seen Fantasmic. I tried to get a dinner package but couldn't, so we'll just have to hope for the best. I kind of want to see it, but at the same time I think it might be a good time to take advantage of hopefully lower wait times for rides like TSMM and then beat it back to the busses before the crowds. That's the thing I really hate about late nights...you're so tired and you just want to get back already...and then you have to wait with the hordes...which is probably why I've never seen Fantasmic lol
Fantasmic really is a great show. I really love it but we keep missing on our most recent trips it as the time is close to the SW fireworks and SW usually wins. LOL. I have honestly never not been able to get a seat even with no FP or dining package. I think most angles have a great view and iId rather sit in the back and get out quickly than have a prime seat up front (you also may get wet due to the sprays of water). So I'd definitely try to fit this in just because I really love the music, and the story, and love the part with the princesses as well as the ending with all the characters.
How great to be there on May 4th
Another very cute dress and I love your headband!
DD and I got to meet BB8 last week that and meeting Starlord and Baby Groot were amazing. We were totally geeking out.
I'm glad you got to meet Olah he's so sweet.
Thank you!! It was a fun day!
I'm so happy you met BB8 as well as StarLord and Baby Groot. They appeared for the first time while we were there...do we get to meet them though...hmmm

Olaf is super cute! I'm glad we met him!
Which was better, Star Wars Day at Sea or May 4th in the parks?
By far SWDAS was more entertaining. The day was definitely geared to that special event and almost everyone on the ship participated in something SW-related. Plus you can wear costumes!
May the 4th at DHS was just a regular DHS day but they had some special merchandise, that was it, no special character meets or shows. It was not like the old Star Wars weekends they used to have. That was fun. But there were a bunch of SW fans out in full force on May the 4th, which was pretty cool although Launch Bay Meet n Greets and Star Tours were more crowded than usual. If you're not there for the special merchandise and just wanted a regular DHS day then come the day after on May the 5th...it was pretty empty! Maybe they will do something special when SW land opens, that would be cool.
May someday we'll get there for May the 4th. Maybe once the new SW land is built!
