I am watching this on Hulu now. Had to pause it to read DIS boards because I'm so confused. For instance, the part where Kaylie (so?) Cuoco plays on her phone, well, we downloaded the Disney Play app and the only "interactive elements" we saw were boring trivia quizzes or a chance to download playlists if you have an Apple music app that we don't have (and I wonder if they'd charge for it). (Also the app doesn't work in the long ride queue where you would hope to distract yourself from standing in line for so long.) There were no translations or anything else whatsoever that she showed on her phone.Anyone else see that last night? Was super cool, lots of behind the scenes stuff shown and thought processes behind how the Imagineers went about things. Enjoyed seeing it. Makes us more excited for our trip next summer. LOL
*sp, not so!Kaylie (so?)
I enjoyed it, but all of Disney's specials and programs are commercials for their parks. Same with the holiday specials at Christmas.Meh, it was ok and was basically a 2 hour commercial........but with all the "rumors" of how Lucas HATED the place and would not step foot in it.....ha........best part was the preview of "rise of skywalker".........

Likewise, the exec in the tv special who described how the guests (us) would be able to interact with characters for an immersive experience, well that was just question marks, huh??? Just once in two long visits to Blackspire, we saw a pair of Stormtroopers who said one single line to someone rather far away from us. That is the full extent of our character sightings.
did you update the Disney Play app. The datapad is there I have played everytime I visit. many, many cool things to do with itI am watching this on Hulu now.

I am also still grossed out by the dry, stale lava roll that they implied was like a cinnabon. It is not! It is like the cheapest, stalest pastry you ever had the misfortune to eat. And the cookie garnishing the overpriced blue milk at Oga's was so hard I could have broken a tooth. Avoid them!
Overall, the tv special is leaving me with question marks floating over my head, as it does not reflect what we experienced just 2 weeks ago.
I really enjoyed it too. I can't believe how many little details we missed in August. At least I know what to look for on the next trip.

I'll give that the same level of credence I give all internet-based rumors about who does or doesn't like SW.
Besides, if I was George Lucas, I'd see absolutely zero point in ever going to Galaxy's Edge, period. He showed up for the launch when he certainly was under no obligation to do so, and that was very generous of him, giving Disney a huge dose of PR.
