**Official** Star Wars at DHS, Galactic Spectacular Dessert Party/Galactic Nights/Launch Bay/JT

[ajjoplin1]

Last night I went on a date and SW came up while talking about an episode of the big bang theory. I think it was an episode where they dressed up as star trek characters. And he said "oh I just can't get into that SW, Star Trek stuff, dressing up and all of that" (he also won't dress up for Halloween though) and shook his head a little. *gulp. Time to test him.

I purposely lead into the force awakens as soon as I found an opening. When I told him I bought 1am tickets to see it in imax his reaction was "oh wow, SW would be AMAZING to see in imax."

WHEW.

Close one, now try this....ask if he likes the 4th Doctor. If he thinks it's Peter Capaldi, move on!

Nod to the classic sci-fi crossover!

Why not take a mid-afternoon nap and go back in the evening? That way he's rested and still get to save the galaxy!

Believe me, if we could, we would! He hasn't napped since he was 2. He is a HORRIBLE sleeper. If we let him nap at all during the day, even like a half hour, he is up until midnight.

whenever you can, ask about favorite Episode or character...if he says Episode II or Jar Jar...move along...move along

Bite your tongue! I have a soft spot for Jar Jar and my son teases me to no end about the universal hatred of Jar Jar. I told him any more smack and he stays home! (he knows I am kidding)

Believe me, if we could, we would! He hasn't napped since he was 2. He is a HORRIBLE sleeper. If we let him nap at all during the day, even like a half hour, he is up until midnight.

I feel you. DS stopped napping around the same time but even for two months prior, it took me longer to get him to sleep than his actual nap lasted.

Hi everyone. I read the first few posts then jumped to the last page. I will catch up in a while.

I had Memory Maker last trip but didn't download any of them (so I lost the pictures) but I have some from my phone that I'll share.

Here's the first. We had bought the VIP SWW passes for the last weekend. This is the show I met Yuli and "Sabine" at. I was still able to walk barely and made it down the stairs to where they were. We weren't too far further up from them
I was excited to get this picture... I anticipated him putting his hands in the air:
On the floor in front of the screen, left to right: Ray Park (Darth Maul), James Arnold Taylor, Peter Mayhew(Chewy) arms in the air!

For all of you that have kids that participate in JTA, do you purchase Memory Maker? We purchased it last year because the Jedi training pictures were awesome, and because I did not have any personal photos because we were asked not to take them. I really don't want to purchase it again. Can I buy individual pictures and not the whole thing? I really want JTA pictures but don't want to spend $200 on them. What is the reason behind not being able to take pictures with my camera? Thanks!

I've never heard of that. That you can't take pics with your own camera...I have taken pics of JT many times without a problem.

@Candleshoe great pic. I loved this moment

Really? We were asked to not take pictures and that they would have someone taking pictures for us. We could video though. I figured it was a plug for Memory Maker, but I didn't want to break any rules just in case lol.

 

[*MomTo2Princesses*]

Can you buy individual pictures? I remember at one time being able to.

 

[CindySwims]

You can buy individual photos for Jedi Academy, but I have taken my own several times and was never asked not to. My profile pic is from the Jedi training and I took it with my own camera.

I like your photo! I took that same one too

I was also at that show and my wallpaper on my phone has been that photo since that day. I will miss the shows very much.

I apologize if this has already been asked. Our Hollywood Studios day is scheduled for 11/30. We fly out 12/1. Has anyone heard of any rumors of soft opens other than the rumor for 11/27? Any hope the launch bay might be open for a soft open on 11/30?

Launch Bay is rumored to soft open next Friday the 27th. No word on JT

I am so dang excited about all of this!! In January we are going on a cruise (Carnival) and have been debating on whether or not to make a Disney stop, this pretty much makes the decision for us. We will spend the day/night before the cruise at WDW, go on the cruise, and then spend a few more days at Disney when we come back. We never got to go to SWW, for us this is going to be a huge treat!

I haven't read the entire thread, but is it safe to assume that we will get to see the fireworks on 1/23 (Sat)? Will the character meet and greets be only for Visa Card holders? Sorry for so many questions, I have lots of catch up to do.

first of all welcome to our SW thread.
Second: just to let you know all the information is updated on the first page divided in several posts by categories, so you can find anything real fast.
It's safe to say you will see fireworks at DHS that day. The character meet and greets will be for everyone and they also will have a separate Vader meet for disney visa cardholders

Thank you!! I just jumped to the end of the thread hoping I could piece together what I wanted to know, off to read page 1....
