News Round Up 2017

I have to say that in spite of owning half a dozen chargers - this is tempting. I like the idea of a smaller charger that I don't have to recharge as opposed to my bulky chargers that I'm always recharging back at the hotel.
And the fact that you can return them for a fully charged one. Honestly I didn't see a kiosk for them during my trip but I wasn't really looking for them either.
 
I think all along the plan for DHS' version is late-2019 at the earliest. There is nothing officially announced on EITHER.

Well, during the 45th for MK they mentioned Toy Story Land and Star Wars land would be open for the 50th (2021) - but obviously that isn't very specific
 
There's no conceivable excuse for it...the "sandwiched" version being done 18-24 months earlier?

But we know who's to blame...

Right now it is looking like DLR version is six months or less ahead of DHS - so not sure where you are getting the 18-24 months.
 
No RnRc?

This one is a stretch. That park isn't really worth a full day's price for a full day.

Let alone a half day for more than a full day's price.

But there will be "celebrities"........
Well considering it aligns with Star Wars celebration that's in Orlando I'm sure celebrities will already be in town for that.
 
As others have said, don't plan your trip around it. However nothing wrong with hoping it will be there to coincide with your trip. I'll be there early March. I hope it's open by then but it certainly won't ruin my trip. Plenty of other new things to enjoy.

It was disappointing for me to see everything completely built but not be able to see the show. At one point everything pointed to ROL being open for our December trip, and then it some point it became apparent that it almost surely would not be running. Even though I knew that, I did have a little hope that maybe there would be a soft open or preview or something. ROL's absence is so conspicuous, it's hard not to get a little bummed, even you go into it with a good attitude - that's all I'm saying.

With this show in particular, which seems to be so technologically fickle and prone to issues of all sorts, I've found it best to put it out of my mind until they do whatever they need to do to get it running. It didn't ruin my trip, but it did kind of bum me out.
 
I look at this as a test balloon - they are probably thinking about doing something like this for Star Wars Land once it's opened.

I can see certain Star Wars fans down for the convention ponying up for this. Some unique interactions in there that would get fans interested.

knowing the interest (and the lines) I can see an event like this once Star Wars Land opens being very popular. Plus if it is so immersive (with CMs playing aliens not really CMs) and then everyone is dressed up for the event I could see it being pretty cool (obviously years out though)
 
I'm going to Celebration, and I picked up tickets for the Galactic Nights event. As a local, I really miss Star Wars Weekends.
