Peek at Disney World’s Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser, Save $6,000

If you’ve been slavering on your likelihood to spend 1000’s upon 1000’s of {dollars} to go to Walt Disney World’s upcoming Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser expertise, may I counsel you towel off your chin in the interim? Disney has launched a video preview of a few of what awaits households who come aboard the Halcyon, and it doesn’t look significantly attractive.

The very first thing it’s best to learn about this video is that it stars Disney Parks Imagineer Ann Morrow Johnson and The Goldbergs’ sitcom actor Sean Giambrone. The two take a really brief tour of the Starcruiser, however as an alternative of them simply speaking like regular folks about what individuals who come to the Halcyon can anticipate, it’s scripted and painfully unfunny. You’ve been warned. But this video additionally raises an necessary query, which is: Disney needs $6,000 for this?

The video solely showcases two areas of the resort, the ship’s bridge and bar. The former seems to be OK, and can presumably be extra attention-grabbing in case you’re truly doing the “bridge operations training” occasion Morrow mentions. She additionally says the ship sometimes goes into hyperspace, which I assume is her being coy as a result of if I paid six grand and didn’t get to observe the ship go into hyperspace I’d sue. The bar additionally seems to be surprisingly small, and whereas the Twi’lek singer/diva Gaia sounds unbelievable, it’s actually bizarre to listen to somebody singing in Star Wars in English. Also, she’s simply… standing round? There’s no stage? Even these jizz-wailers at Tatooine’s cantina had a stage. It all simply appears type of meh—tremendous in case you might wander into them whilst you’re within the Galaxy’s Edge part of Disney World, however nothing well worth the Starcruiser’s exorbitant worth.

If you wish to give the Galactic Starcruiser the advantage of the doubt, there’s presumably a whole lot of cooler stuff coming as indicated by the plethora of previous idea artwork the video trots out, together with the (non-retractable) lightsaber coaching. But if you wish to be suspicious and mean-spirited, like I do, you possibly can level out the foremost distinction between the joy and vibrancy extolled by the numerous items of idea artwork and the lackluster actuality of the bridge and bar. If nothing else, whereas Disney presumably has a slew of movies coming that showcase totally different elements of the resort, it actually feels prefer it ought to have waited till there was extra to point out than simply this.

The Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser expertise begins in March 2022 at Orlando’s Walt Disney World, however you’re going to should at the least July earlier than you possibly can e book a room. That gives you extra time to avoid wasting up for the exorbitant $6,000 wanted to spend two days and two nights on the resort.
