More Star Wars Weekends Questions...

DisneyFanatik · May 10, 2006

Now that it's close, I have a few questions (forgive me if these have been asked before). What time do the Stormtroopers start their pre-opening show? Does anyone know if they will be doing this before EMH on 5/20? If not, what time should the EMH guests go back out to watch it? TIA!

Oh and one more! Where/when do you get the wristbands for the celeb autographs?

I don't remember if they start before EMH. I think it was probably just before they opened the gate to let us in. The last few years the autographs have been assigned times via Fast Pass instead of wristbands. I think it is much better this way. You get a more specific time to return rather than having to queue up at the beginning of the designated signing time which means less line waiting. Just be sure to get the Fast Passes for the signings first thing in the morning. They use the Fast Pass Machines at the Millionaire Game for the Autographs so that's where you need to go to get them.They go fast. They will usually also hand out the Fast passes for the Star Wars Edition of the Millionaire Game to the people waiting for the Autograph Fast Passes.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe this is the first year that there is a morning EMH on a SWW day. . . so I am anxiously waiting to hear from everyone who attends the first Friday about how they ran this. I'm hoping that it doesn't mean we have to run for the lines to sign up for things (autographs, trivia) at 8 AM and then wait there until 9 for them to open! Last year we were at the front gate at 8:30 for 9 open and the storm troopers were already doing their 'schtick' - it was hilarious and really set the mood for the whole day! :thumbsup2

There were also lots of stormtroopers at the rope drops once you got into the park - hamming it up with everyone in the front - we can't wait :banana:
