The Cast: Sam Marraccini & John Yaglenski\n- Live from the Dig Site at Coronado Springs resort with Sam of Sam's Disney Diary- Day 1 was a preview filled with a panel talk and interviews- Imagineers have been working on this experience for 7 years- We did not have the full experience aboard the Galactic Starcruiser. Only 4-5 hours.- After the Last Jedi and Before the Rise of Sywalker is when this cruise takes place- This ship doesn't look like Star Wars... Why?- There are SPOILERS AHEAD though we didn't see everything- John needs a backstory- Engineering Room looks like gritty Star Wars- Cabins are small but well-appointed and include your own AI- The experience wasn't flawless and they have some learning to do- There are moments where you are completely enveloped by the storyline- It's a very complex "show"- The initial videos vs. the reality of the shows and experience- Maintenance interrupts the podcast- Did not get to ride the shuttle down to Batu- The shuttle ride up to the ship wasn't as impressive as the ship itself- Unclear how Starcruiser guests will mingle with day guests to the park- Lightsaber training- The Halcyon Bridge & the backstory- The brig- Fireworks in space- Epic battle to conclude the cruise- You engage at the level you are comfortable- The price question- Overall impressions - is the cost justified?- There should be a Spa!- ATM - Chase in space- Books and comics related to the Starcruiser- That's a wrap, keep working on it Disney
