Official Star Wars Weekends Thread Tips and Tricks 2015

If you have the deluxe premium package, you do not need FPs for any of the shows in theater of the stars on that day.

that's why I got it.........

This is strange. I have SOTS, Obi-Wan and Beyond and Rockin' Roller Coaster all booked on Sunday, May 17th. I wonder what the issue is? It does make me think this could all be a glitch....

It's not the whole weekend that's messed up. Just Friday and Saturday.

 

[Tltorrez]

Dang I havent been on all day today and now I hear about a glitch. Jumped on to check..for the 15th I am seeing all shows as tier 2 except for rebels. rebels is showing as tier 1. But the tier 2 shows are saying distribution has ended. Feel like a missed out here.

Obi Wan has been saying that the whole time which seems really odd to me. SotS was available earlier today so it may be legitimately full.

I would keep an eye on it to see if Rebels drops down to Tier 2 at some point. I'm assuming that it will. Maybe tomorrow.

 

[THEDISNEYTHREE]

My too. I had to choose new FP's though to make it work on the 17th. I already had SOTS selected and since it was moved to Tier 2 I then had no access to Tier 1's! But May 15th and 16th still have SW shows in Tier 1 or won't allow the change and show they are finished distributing.

Yes, that is what happened to me as well and gosh darn it if I didn't keep trying with no luck. Oh well, at least it worked for the 17th. We got a little bit of pixie dust!

ahem...how?? That's awesome!!

Sorry, just got back - Age Of Ultron was amazing! It's been released in several places internationally over the last few days. For whatever reason, here in the UK we get most of the big blockbusters after the US, but we often get Marvel films a week or two early. Guess it makes up for how loooong we have to wait for Disney releases!

The only downside was they didn't play the Star Wars trailer before the film. They did, however, play the trailer for Jurassic World twice. Like, yeah, I'm all here for dinosaurs, but once was fine, give me Force Awakens!

It's so much fun, lots of laughter in our screening. Fingers crossed they'll show the SW trailer for your showing, so you can see it on the big screen.

I go to a lot of advance movie screenings. On Monday they showed the Batman v Superman trailer in IMAX and they gave out posters told us we would also get invited to see the complete movie next year. I hope to see the Avengers screening next week, but it's looking slim, and they normally don't show trailers at screenings. Speaking of Star Wars trailers, when I was in college I ran across town to buy a ticket for a matinee of Meet Joe Black just to see the premiere of the first Phantom Menace trailer. The Internet was useful for movie news back then but not for videos and buying movie tix.

 

[yulilin3]

I'm sure it'll be shown at the premiere Thursday though, right?
Anyways...I was just thinking, we never got an answer as to why beauty and the beast is dark weekend V

Hi, I just wanted to say a BIG thank you to everyone for your help! We're going back for Star Wars weekends for the first time since 2009. Very excited, but a little overwhelmed. I've been reading these forums and appreciate all of the tips.

 

[jimim]

That is a sweet helmet!



What weekend will you be there? I was unsure about the Obi Wan show last year, we did it on a whim and I came out of there in love with JAT. He and the show is amazing.

Last weekend on the sat forcthe shows.

Just checked again for the first friday. Every show is now showing completely out. No FP+ available for any of the star wars shows

 

[jennab113]

Cool! I was offline most of the day (working and then theorizing TFA with a coworker all afternoon), so I just saw the FP stuff. I was able to get extra shows weekend II and III but not I. Yay! It's probably good that it didn't work the first Sunday for me because I have to drive home (6-7 hours) and need to leave at a decent time instead of staying for shows.

I can't wait for Ultron! I'm seeing it Thursday night in a mini marathon with Avenger 1. I wanted to do the full Marvel Universe marathon but I don't want to take a day off of work for it.

 

[pookadoo77]

I GOT THIS!!!!!!!!! Thanks so much.

glad you got it

I'm taking screenshots of all the fp on MDE...just in case

did you just screenshoot the itinerary page? I screen shot that page then clicked details for each and screen shot them, lol... SO paranoid with MDE, it dropped my whole ressie shortly after I booked it so I DO NOT trust it. Will these screenshots be enough to call MDE internet help and they can add them on again for you? THANKS!!!

 

[coluk003]

Me too, everyone was getting excited and i felt left out lol.

True...it's another remaining mystery. And it was still unavailable when changing around FP's today because I specifically checked. We just saw the national tour of Beauty and the Beast this week and it reminded me that we wouldn't be able to see the show the weekend we are there.
