I Think Oga’s Cantina in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is Overrated. There, I Said It.

Okay, I love Star Wars. And I love almost ALL things Star Wars, including those things that not all fans love, like The Last Jedi and The Acolyte.

Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland

I also LOVE Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. But I just have to come right out and make a confession: when I finally managed to get one of those hard-to-get reservations at Oga’s Cantina, I was NOT impressed. Yep, all that hype…but then when I finally got inside this themed bar, it just didn’t do much for me. Now let me tell you why…

Hey Disney, This Smugglers Run Ride Change Isn’t Permanent…Right?

By Jessica Wedinger 1 Comment

There are different ways that you can make your time waiting for Disney World rides and attractions a bit shorter.

Cosmic Rewind Queue

The most obvious one is purchasing Lighting Lane Multi, Single, or Premier Pass. You can also wait in the single rider line if a ride offers it. Well, a new way to “skip” the line at Disney World just debuted, and then was quietly removed just weeks later.

Wait…Did Disney Just Tease That a Banned Character Is Coming to Disneyland?

By Robin Burks 5 Comments

When Disney first introduced Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge to Disneyland and Disney World, the land of Batuu was specifically designed to take place in the Star Wars universe in a timeline that happens just after Episode 8, The Last Jedi.

However, that timeline has become a little muddled now that certain characters have been seen walking through the land, including the Mandalorian with Grogu, Ahsoka Tano, and other characters that come from earlier Star Wars timelines. Well, Disney just teased that a character previously BANNED from the land will be appearing soon, and this character, Luke Skywalker, was confirmed by The Orange County Register. So, what is going on here?

By Robin Burks 3 Comments

If you plan on visiting Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland, you may know that some experiences there require reservations.

This includes Oga’s Cantina (in case you want to visit a bar in a galaxy far, far away), the lightsaber-building experience at Savi’s Workshop, and the droid-building experience Droid Depot. However, one of these experiences, Droid Depot, will soon no longer take reservations, although walk-ups will still be welcome.

We LOVE It When Disney Listens! Imagineers FINALLY Fixed This Glaring Ride Problem

By Robin Burks Leave a Comment

It’s no secret that sometimes Disney rides just don’t operate the way they’re supposed to. In many cases, that means the rides are still functional, but some effects may not be working or the ride is operating in “B Mode.”

Rise of the Resistance

One of the most NOTORIOUS rides to have a lot of technical problems is Rise of the Resistance in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. Even when it’s not temporarily closed due to some issue or another, things on the ride are often not working properly. In Disneyland, it’s been a hot minute since the cannons in the latter portion of the ride were moving (they’ve been stationary for a while), but we’ve got great news: those cannons are working and are *pew-pewing* again!

The Popcorn Bucket We’ve Been MISSING Is Now Available in Disney World

By Robin Burks Leave a Comment

Okay, where are our Disney World popcorn bucket collectors?

Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge

We know, we know, collecting popcorn buckets is a THING, and well, we get it — Disney releases some pretty cool ones. That Elf Mickey Popcorn Bucket from Christmas? That thing was FIRE. The new Figment Popcorn Bucket coming to the EPCOT Festival of the Arts? WE NEED IT. Well, there’s one popular Disney World popcorn bucket that is actually BACK in Disney World — so if you didn’t get it the first time around, here’s your chance.

Disney Figured Out My Secret Fireworks Viewing Spot, and Now They’re Selling Dining Packages There, Too

By Robin Burks 2 Comments

Okay, so the last time I was in Disneyland, as a Star Wars nerd, I ended up spending a LOT of time in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.

Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland

So while my friends rode Millennium Falcon: Smuggler’s Run (and sorta got stuck on it), I was enjoying a Cold Brew Black Caf and sitting UNDER the Falcon, just enjoying a quiet evening in Batuu. Then, a Cast Member came up and told me I had to move because the fireworks were starting soon. Okay, so I was confused. But wait…then Cast Members came out and blocked out an area near the Falcon for fireworks viewing. Yes, you could see the Disneyland fireworks from there (but without the music) — and not a lot of people even knew about it. It was AWESOME…but now things have changed.

We Hope You’re Sitting Down Because This Disney Popcorn Bucket Is Pretty Creepy

By Robin Burks 2 Comments

The holiday season is coming to Disneyland, and that includes some new offerings this year.

Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland

However, there’s ANOTHER holiday that Disneyland celebrates that Star Wars fans might know about. It’s Life Day, which is a Wookiee holiday that celebrates family, joy, and harmony. So, basically, it’s sort of like the Wookiee version of Christmas. Now, Life Day gets celebrated in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland every year, and this year, the celebration is bringing a new popcorn bucket and snacks.

NEWS: Disney Just Announced a NEW Fireworks Dining Package

By Robin Burks 1 Comment

We hate to admit it, but it seems like Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland just goes a little harder than Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disney World.

Bard droid in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland

Why? First, ALL the characters that come to the Disneyland version of Batuu are mind-boggling. Hera Syndulla? Ahsoka Tano? CHOPPER? It’s WILD. Then there are those little droids that wander around the area when Disney feels like testing them out. Also, Disneyland’s Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge goes a little harder with the food, too, and is constantly adding new snacks and meals. Well, now, there’s a new Star Wars dining package — SAY WHAT?!?!?!
