Official Star Wars Weekends Thread Tips and Tricks 2015

After breakfast Sci Fi goes back to their normal operations, so it's the regular sci fi movie clips. BTW @lovethattink reported this morning that they showed The Force Awakens teaser trailer during breakfast

.

YES!!! I took a picture of the screen since it didn't happen if there isn't a picture!

Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's here! Starting to pack in earnest today!

(Oh, I added many of you to my Twitter - I'm mandem714 on there - I think on Instagram, too. Gotta figure out how to work both of them, too).

Awesome -- following you now!

So, I really wanted to get one of the Lightsaber logo tees from Her Universe to wear to SWW in June, but my size isn't in stock. Do you guys think the site will get more or do you think that all the stock will be going to DHS for SWW since Ashley will be there every weekend? Anyone have any experience with this? Just wondering whether or not I should keep stalking her website for it.

What size do you need? I have a medium (I think) that I haven't gotten around to sending back yet. But I do think she'll have all sizes at SWW.

Silly question - what SW characters are considered "face" characters? Just the ones whose faces you can see? I guess what I'm asking is which characters will speak back to you using real words, lol?

 

[Cluelyss]

thank you, I'm actually doing Jedi Mickey dinner at 6:30pm tonight. I hope to get to meet you and everyone else as well

Oops! Enjoy your dinner then!!!!

yes, face characters are the ones that you can speak with. So, or Luke and Leia. I would consider C3PO a face character also, because he answers to your questions and carries a conversation with you, it's pretty cool.
Maul, even though you can see his face won't talk back or answer, same with Aurra Sing and Zam Wessel

Machete order is the best! I've seen the movies countless times, but I watched in that order last summer and picked up on a lot of new connections I hadn't realized before. It's a great way to introduce the story to someone new because A New Hope has the best world building, then At the end of Empire, Luke is trying to understand his father, so you go back and see Anakin's story, and then his redemption in Jedi. You miss nothing if you skip 1 in my opinion, but I'd watch it after Empire if you're introducing someone new. The only problem I had was going from Empire (my favorite) to Attack of the Clones which is not great.

I watch them 4,5,1,2,Clone Wars Series,3,6. I am on season 2 of Clone Wars now. Hoping to finish before Thursday.

Are Ashoka and Queen Amidala talkers or are they silent?

 

[OhioStateBuckeye]

Zam talks.

Talkers: ahsoka, anakin, mace, shaak ti, c3po, Luke, Leia, zam weasel, amidala, r2

Non-talkers: Vader, the fetts, maul, kit fisto, gamorrean guard, aurra sing, jawas, stormtroopers, clonetroopers, cantina band

Unsure because I've never met them: asaaj ventress. According to @Good Morning Dewdrop She does talk


My order for the movies is whatever I'm in the mood for. Which is usually new hope, empire and Jedi. I think I'd rather watch the holiday special than the prequels. Though we did watch rifftrax revenge of the sith last night. I managed not to vomit during the whole padme 'I'm going to die during childbirth of a broken heart and leave my Children behind' scene.

Funny you should mention that. BFF and I just ate at Cafe Orleans on Friday! Nothing like it in all of WDW - I've never seen a Monte Cristo anywhere on a WDW menu.

Dockside Grill in Cagans Crossing has a Monte Cristo on the menu but I've never eaten there.

Brilliant thanks. We plan on hitting the outlet mall on Sunday so we may head over there afterwards.

DD says Ventress talks.

She does
I've never heard Zam talking, I need to hear her now
Stormtroopers have a pre recorded dialog...like. show me your identification, and, move along

 

[hydrotony]

Zam does a lot of walking around and meeting young fans, usually girls, and talks to them while signing books.

Where is this gem from?

I finished packing, only 4 more days....but my suitcase is ridiculously empty and light. I usually only go to disney for race weekends and need all these running shoes, outfits, foam rollers, its a madhouse in there. But now at most this thing weighs 10 pounds. And half of that is the giant suitcase itself that I use when checking bags since it is hardsided! But when it is 95 degrees really I dont have to pack much!

Just a small rant here that is mostly unrelated - Disney dining is the most stressful mechanism I've encountered in a long time. My ADR booking window opened today for my November wine and dine trip. I am trying to book dine with an imagineer for my little brother who decided to go to school for engineering (yay!). It kept saying no tables. So finally I just called and first was told they weren't sure they still offered it, and then she was checking dates it isn't held on, and now she is pretty much not finding anything. Grr Disney dining. Grr.

I just got my medium from the website. I would say the shirts fit a little small. I can usually be fine with a medium in women's, and it will be a little fitted across the chest (32D). However, this one was a little more fitted throughout and in the chest. Really just slightly more so than I am used to with the Disney or Hanes women's shirts. If you are on the fence and don't want something fitted, you might consider going a size up. If I had been able to try on both sizes, I still don't know if I would have gone with a medium or large, not knowing how much bigger the large is. I hate buying clothes sometimes.

We haven't seen Clone Wars yet. We should be getting the discs from Netflix soon. I know, old school tech discs. I am glad I saw your post, because I hadn't added all of the seasons. I can't believe there are 4 seasons!
