Is that why is bleeding money? The school holidays are over, you ain't making that money back Mr Mouse.

That's not even an image of Star Wars Land, it's a completely different area of the park faggot. Galaxy's Edge has zero characters besides a few storm troopers and literally who black woman

>Implying Disney isn't too big to fail.
They are going nowhere. I'm sure in time they will be the oldest corporation still in business. Certainly after the oil crash.

Why is dude trying to wear girl Capri's? He's a onions fag!

Still expanding, when I went there were chunks that were empty, but the park itself was pretty well themed. Forced perspective surroundings, the Falcon made for a nice backdrop, shops looked like “trading posts”, and the bar has nice atmosphere. Needs more shit but it’s not as bad as people here think

Storm Troopers walking around assaulting guests was pretty fun. Don’t know why they don’t have other original trilogy characters at the outpost. It’s hard to separate the original actors from their characters unless they’re masked or just new enough that younger kids wouldn’t get confused. Rey was walking around with Chewy and the cast member playing her looked the part. Growing pains I guess.

That's the thing. I would only give a shit about Chewie. The stormtroopers are only around because women can't lead a nation for shit, Rey is a Mary Sue, and Kylo Ren is a fucking pussy.

Apparently they don't get paid that much. Why would they? 99% of Disney workers are easily replaced labor.

walking around disneyland with your disgusting feet on display just fucking kill yourself faggot

If a kid can relate to Rey then good on them. To get as many people interested in a franchise they create characters that can resonate with different people. Luke spent the original movie bitching and Han was just a badass off the bat. She wasn’t made for people who watched the originals or the prequels to relate to, she was made for their kids. I took it as “something about her past has to explain why she’s a natural at this” until TLJ. I think the “your parents were random junkies” arc will be explained off as Kylo trying to fuck with her or something.

Toy sales are just one way to measure success of a franchise, no?
They bought Star Wars 7 years ago for $4.05 billion and are making a killing on licensing the product out.

You can go see a college kid do a shitty Darth Vader impression anywhere.

Any way to prove that I don’t work for the mouse? Just bored so I started this thread while taking a break from my actual work.

Again, still a young franchise (from Disney’s POV), they need to figure out what sells. They can afford to take a loss on toy sales while they figure it out. As long as its in the public consciousness they have an audience.

>Storm Troopers walking around assaulting guests was pretty fun.
What do they do?
One time at universal studios Doc Brown wanted his picture taken with my gf,then he put his arm around her and walk off,looked over his should at me and said "I'll bring her back,IN THE FUTURE!"

That would be more comparable to “Star Tours” in presentation. Both rides, not “parks”

The last movie lost at least $100 Million.

Sneak up to random people and suddenly shout at them when they’re not paying attention, “Interrogate” guests by surrounding them and talking over them, acting like assholes, flat out reject photo ops and walking away. Seems like a fun gig if you’re in customer service.

Hard to do tricks on a longboard. Hard to maintain momentum in sandals if you bail while going downhill.

You realize that Disney has been cutting features from Galaxys Edge since it was announced due to budget cuts?

Didn’t know that. Link?

I think some of them are doing it for free, like Dobson for example.

One guy did punch an "actor",but beforehand he was caught saying he was gonna do it. They do jump scares that are effective.

It's a shop (and a purposely bad one at that), where the references to Disney are plastered one in some obvious spots so you can use it to jokingly insinuate people are Disney shill.

No employee would have a picture of Kathleen Kennedy just like that. It would be weird to have a picture of a Disney executive up on your desk for no reason.

I thought Nimoy died afew years ago...oh wait,you got dubs...
Nice pic bro!

How was it? May take my dad to see it.
Spent the day running errands, went to the gym, taking it slow today so I’m getting some work done.
Make plans with the other students dude. 99% of the time it’s all in your head and you end up shooting yourself in the foot by not making new memories. You never know where the night can take you if you go out with a group. Make new friends and get out of your comfort zone. Everyone is as anxious as you are, some can hide it well.

I knew a guy that had a pic of the actual Walt Disney,he got fired because the higher ups thought he would sell it as lart of his retirement plan.
He made $8/HR and they put the picture in a dumpster as they escorted him of the premises.
They have decent benefits,but they can fire you before you make too much money,as in if the minimum wage goes up,your are gone.

Shit, what did he do for Disney?

Also that seems a bit different. It’s like an apple employee having a picture of either Steve at his desk. Could be explained off as a “humble reminder of where it all started”.

>May take my dad to see it.
That's not a bad idea, as long as you both know not to expect what the trailers sold us ("big space action movie"). Slow, atmospheric character study where you'll be spending a lot of time alone with Pitt, and where the ending might not leave you fully satisfied.

>Make plans with the other students dude
Well there wasn't really a plan, we just toyed with getting together but I'm the only one that could us buy drinks and since I wasn't really budging, we didn't follow through.

I think it's not people don't like me, it's just I need to leave them space so they don't think they're the only friends I have. And I'm miserable in most social situations anyways, I feel like we never discuss anything interesting (just a lot of shouting and jokes), and I can only wait to get home.

Thanks for the therapist session, how much will that be?

My dad and I watched a lot of science fiction growing up (Lost in Space, TNG, Star Wars, 2001, Contact, etc...) so we’re into that.
Nothing wrong with hanging out with friends and shooting the shit. You’re overthinking what you think they’re saying about you. Hang out with them for drinks and try to steer the conversation towards something you want to talk about without being weird about it.
I usually bill clients through Square, but I don’t think you’re old enough for a credit card that’s not your parents or stolen.

He was a bus driver.
An employee that was quitting(on good terms as far as I know) gave him a small framed pic of Walt.
As he was clocking out somebody saw it.
Odd thing is he had a siezure and rolled a bus a few times and didnt get fired/reasigned for that.
You can probably google the buss flipping incident. It was the florida Disney,about 2004. Def before 2008.
His name was Larry,he was a fun dude.

Didn’t see any character as the “face of the park” when I went. My sister read the supplemental novels and brought me up to speed on the Black Spire book, what the “Galaxy’s Edge” is supposed to be to the rewritten canon, and what’s supposed to come next (she likes to read). I don’t see the problem with them adding random characters to explain side stories within the brand universe if it helps contextualize it for the ones who keep up with the relevant media.

Attached: image.jpg (615x1362, 859K)

I would have said that they should have gone with Kyle Katarn, but I don't want them to soil that character's awesomeness by sticking him in a shitty park.

Not a troll thread, I like to lurk here when I’m bored and I saw people bitching about the park so I thought I’d offer my two cents. Nothing will ever satisfy everyone. Despite what people think they’re trying to continue the story in the safest, most profitable way. Star Wars was a b-movie inspired scifi adventure based heavily in mysticism and the heroes journey. People hated the second film when it came out too but now it’s looked back on fondly. The prequels were shit on when I was growing up but they’re now accepted as the camp that it was. TLJ was a misfire but it’s not the worst thing that could have happened. They’re calming down with the prequel films and dumping them on streaming because Solo was awful (could have been great). I think both sides of the fandom are annoying as fuck. The diehard fans who lose their shit over anything Star Wars (pic related) and the edgelords who just hate everything.

I live near universal Studios/Disney.(both are fun)
When my nephew visited we went to universal and he was wearing his Spider-Man pajamas and there was a parade and every single marvel character stopped and asked for his picture.
He was SO happy.
Then we watched a bmx tour.(thats a bunch of dude doing bicycle tricks) then he got hosed down by a random water/volcano (so did some I'm expecting parents as a smash mout song played).The his sister got to meet Betty Book!
The parks arent cheap,but they are worth it only if you want to have fun.
Too many people plan it step by step,I've seen an adult yell at another adult because "Its 8:15 and we arnt in line for the spiderman ride because you just had to take you picture with Popeye".

That pic.
I'm so glad I feel shame.
I'm a d&d nerd but nobody knows it.
Also a car nerd,but my tool boxes are hidden.
So what park did you go to,guessing the Californian one.

That Darth Vader looks like he wants to leave the room.
This makes no sense,is this youtube money?

Yeah. Was working in PA for 4 months, sister was down in LA for school and suggested we go to the park. My parents came and visited her. Took my dad since he never went to Disneyland (only world). Pic related.

What ywr was the first pic?

2000 at Disney world. Me and my sister’s first time going and my parent’s second. I love the parks because of how they are run and the effort that goes behind keeping up the illusion of fantasy. It’s part of what inspired me to start my career at Disney as a paid shill.

Right?

Like you too buddy. It’s basically an open discussion about the Disney parks, and Star Wars by extension.

Just wait until you can bring your kids there. So much more fun.(eat fast food before you go in the park,you will save about $10 per kid)

I’m cancer free (they caught it early). Just posted a picture of me at the park to kickstart the conversation. Now I’m just keeping up with that initial theme.
Mainly because of the accusations that I’m an Indian Disney damage control shill, going through old photos of my ex (archiving them), and posting funny shit that’s semi relevant to the conversation.

They actually were making an entire remodel of AdventureLand that was Indiana Jones themed before the budget was slashed so significantly it became just the ride. The concept later was being reused for Euro Disney but they once again slashed the budget until it became just one ride. This type of thing definitely would have been possible under Disney, it was their fault it never happened not Lucas.

Few years back. Removed it before it spread.

I always saw Lucas as “the wizard in the closet”, that genius who sucked when it came to doing a lot of the PR/ product generation. He was great when he made the film, but no way could he have taken it to the level of detail, marketability, and polish that Disney did.

I’ve never seen these! I love me some concept art.
Cool that they included Justin Trudeau as one of the models in the render.

He already did with Star Tours, it's not just George calling the shots it was Imagineers doing most of the heavy lifting and creative work with him approving and would have been the same I imagine had a world been made under his ownership. It's pretty clear Disney are just cheap and wouldn't bother with anything like that if they couldn't own all of it's profits. Although they did it with Avatar before owning it, but for all we knew they already were set on buying FOX by that point regardless.

They were planning it for a while so it’s not out of the question that they built Pandora while thinking about buying fox. It also helped bring traffic to animal kingdom. Nobody went at night (or at all) so they needed a draw

Our other options aren’t that good unfortunately but our local Liberal Minister is a pretty ok guy so I don’t feel bad voting for him.

>Never too late to change career paths.
...as long as you have connections. If you don't, you're probably fucked.

How do you form connections? You network.
Go to industry events (Eventbrite, Facebook event), learn enough about the industry and the path you want to take, and do it. I managed to change career paths without being handed a job or position. It’s hard as fuck but it’s possible.

I guess. I don't think I know how to talk to people, so that might be one reason why I was a downer in my initial post.

That and industry events are a bitch to come by outside of major cities.

I used to be extremely socially anxious. It takes time but you have to keep pushing your comfort zone. It’s hard to see but again, it’s possible.

Well, it's difficult when people doing the hiring won't give you the time of day. If it wasn't, young people wouldn't be so anxious and depressed.

Find another way in. The people who hire are human beings. Find a way to inject yourself into their network and make yourself memorable to them. It’s hard to convey this on an open thread and I can assure you that although this sounds like empty platitudes, it works.

Well, the dumbest thing about entertainment (since this thread is referencing it and I'm doing it) is that it is heavily reliant on social media. That's the biggest problem.
