Looks like we'll finally get some info on the upcoming Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order video game this weekend ... not holding out much hope since it's EA, but Respawn is a great studio and one of the project leads is known for the original God of War series ... so sliver of hope for a great 3rd person action lightsaber game ??

Right there with you. For the most part this still looks like a beat for beat recreation. Yes, it is visually stunning. But we have already seen this exact story before.

This trailers makes the CGI look rather stunning and very life like. The gazelles jumping for example.

I get that - and definitely isn't a negative tot he people who made the film, et.c - techinically it looks great .... but if I want to see real animals I'll just watch a nature film

and then to have them singing? Just seems too "Beverly Hills Chihuahua" to me

yup ... and the benefits of staying on site continue to go down

That’s just it. The add on events keep selling really well so why should disney give “free” EMH.

Just read this elsewhere... this would make me EXTREMELY CRANKY, especially during our Aug trips.

Since it doesn't start until October I wonder if this is just for while the holiday parties are going on (which seem to be more and more nights) and it will return in january, or if they are gone for good

If they are selling well, which seems to be the case, I would expect them to offer DAH on more nights a week now. I wonder what they will do about holiday weeks, when they haven't offered DAH (at least I never saw one during Thanksgiving time, plenty of EMM never DAH) but still had evening EMH.

seems like not starting until October - so you should be good for August .... wonder if related to the holiday parties taking up so many nights now, add in a few paid evenings, a not much left

will be interesting to see if return in January, or just gone for good

It does seem to be much more nights this year. Though if they keep selling the capacity of the park so high under the parties the value of those parties are diminished, the EMH were always better. They can't even manage to filter non-party guests out of the park effectively. I'm still curious about Thanksgiving week were traditionally Monday to Saturday have no ticked events (except EMM, which technically isn't a ticketed event but dinning). Though this year the weekend before Thanksgiving was loaded with Christmas Parties I don't recall that happening years prior.

If Disney takes something away, very seldom do they give it back.

 

[OhioStateBuckeye]

Is anyone surprised anymore when Disney takes away a guest benefit and charges for it? Nope.

I'm a little disappointed, but not surprised.

Once they take away the hotel emh, they can start slowly raising capacity for the evening parties. It's ok though, it'll be due to guest demand to be able to see the mk at night.
