    I'm guessing you've succumbed to the dark side somehow?

    Disney Plus replied "Oh, you have a VPN. That's cute."

    Seems some work, some don't (yet at least). Will be exploring a few options tonight.

    On the plus side (pun not intended!), all the original movies are 4K... and have been tweaked again!

    What are fanboys going to do now if they can't complain that Lucas is destroying the films by altering them?

    Well there is that one tiny edit in the Disney + ANH version that he approved....


    And you know, how dare he sell SW to the evil mouse franchise but also how dare he make more SW movies without Kershner directing.

    Actually how dare he not clone Kershner before he passed away. But he also can’t remake ESB cause that’s just lazy

    Leaving for Disney on Saturday. Got plans booked to build a saber, droid and go nuts in Battuu. Getting excited to leave and forget about work for a while.

    I'm sure it's going to be madness. We plan on riding Smuggler's Run a few days before hand. Everything else we have booked for opening day of ROTR.

    Two weeks tonight until The Rise of Skywalker!!!

    So hyped for this film right now. Plus Mandalorian has been amazing. Funny how fast the weeks have gone since that started and I still need to catch up on the last few episodes of Resistance before the film.

    DC fan in me is super hyped for Crisis on Infinite Earths as well. December is just awesome this year and that's before we even get to Christmas :D

    Batuu was amazing. Last night we rode Smugglers Run twice. Spent ALOT of money shopping and ate dinner at Docking Bay. Going back tomorrow for all kinds of good stuff. Here’s a fun pic we took last night.

    @Rox looks great! Loving the magic shot! So were you the pilot, the gunner, or the engineer?

    Was it crowded when you visited? if not, I can't imagine how it may be(unless they have limited access) in August. I hope to visit the day before the Cele. and do shopping.

    It wasn’t bad. First time through about 50 minutes. Second time about 25.

    That's pretty good! Imagine tomorrow will be busier for opening of Rise of the Resistance (though that may actually bring Smuggler's Run queue down)

    Love the pic! Did you do the 360 shot they have available at GE as well?

    Also did you get to "hack" into any of the props like the Falcon, Xwing etc to make it do things?

    No I could figure it out. I’m going back tomorrow so I’ll look into all the photo ops before we go back. I paid for Memory Maker so we’ve been taking full advantage of it.

    I also did a few of the hacks in the missions. My wife is using our play Disney account right now so not sure what we’ve done so far.
