Oh me too. That does not look like fun. I will be skipping this ride for a while. I've ridden it once. It was fun, but nothing is that fun where I would want to be stuck in that crowd for hours. I also won't pay to ride either. I will just find other things to do until ride times come down... years from now.

Panic attack in the making--how do you even get to Star Tours entrance?

Disney- we care about our cast members, here is this statue dedicated to them!
Also Disney- FREE FOR ALL AT RISE!!!!! TAKE NO PRISONERS!

I feel for all of them today, not to mention the health aspect of the crowding, but we all know how people get after waiting in long hot lines (myself included!). Please please be patient with the cast members! This isn't their call!

Wow. . .is this really a "line"? It looks more like a crowd waiting for a concert to start.

Does this "line" somehow narrow the closer you get? Seems like that could cause some issues with people trying to figure out who is in front of whom.

The people are now contained inside the ride queue. That could ebb and flow as the day goes on, but beyond the initial rush of people for the first 2 hours it’s now all manageable.

I wonder if that pic (DH pulled from Twitter this morning) was morning "rush hour"? Some are reporting its a walk-on and some said in and done in 30 min.

Interesting that MDE wait times are now down to 75 mins. I think you may be right.

Reported on the Star Wars standby line thread

I have clients in the park now. The line was crazy at RD, which is to be expected. But then almost immediately, waits were drastically inflated by MDE. Although MDE at one point claimed a wait of over 3.5 hours, that was never true. MDE is now much more in line with the actual wait, and TP has it at 64 minutes which my client says is pretty accurate. With BG's not filling up/being available until late in the day recently, this all makes sense. The actual situation on the ground is much less chaotic than it seems.

I was in the parking lot by 8:00 and off ROTR by 9:00.

Did you however speed walk to the front of the line after rope drop?

ok, so maybe I missed it, but when did park hopping change to 1pm from 2pm?

I see that Remi now is listed under the VQ section on MDE and it states that as of Oct 1st, Remi will be virtual and that you can enter Epcot after 1pm...

How did i miss that???

Hopping is still 2pm.

For the Remy VQ you can join at 7am before entering the park, or at 1pm after you have already entered EPCOT.

I think it means you can join the afternoon virtual queue at 1pm after tapping into Epcot. Not that you can park hop at 1pm.

It still says you can't park hop and hope to join the VQ, you must make Epcot your reserved park
