  • I had the opportunity to visit Walt Disney World during opening day of Rise of the Resistance, and I had a few thoughts to share with you all today. From Stormtroopers to Star-Speeders, here is my experience and my thoughts behind Disney's newest e-ticket.

    I know it's peanuts compared to the rest of the ride, but I'm a details guy, so I love how in the interrogation room, you know that you're looking at a screen, but the fact that they perfectly display the characters shadows on the ceiling makes me so happy!
    That tiny detail makes it feel that much more real.

      As a detail guy you probably noticed the large shooting gun turrets inside shooting through a window? Or if they are actually outside it means you are outside in space as well. A bit like riding horses on the top of a starship destroyer? Still I like the effect. It's just that the second I noticed it I wondered how long it would be before anyone pointed that out.

      @Quetzalcoatl_Feathered_Serpent 4 роки тому +11

      To be fair Universal was on the forefront of screen tech rides then Disney took the next step. Rise of the Resistance is simply everything Disney knew and threw it into one basket. Universal will likely make something similar to, remember however Universal did use the concept of Disney's fairytale land for Disney's animal kingdom and made the Island of Adventure.

I've honestly never understood the hate Disney fans have towards Universal about screens. Disney uses screens all the time too... Avatar Flight of Passage, Navi River Journey, Soarin', Mickeys Runaway Railway, It's Tough to be a Bug, Honey I Shrunk the Kids, Rise of the Resistance, Star Tours, Toy Story Midway Mania, Mickey's Philharmagic, Oh Canada!, Circle Vision 360, Ratatouille, Smuggler's Run ... ect ect...

      @@TennesseeTravelers94 Universal tends to be way more in your face with screens though, make you wear tiny 3D glasses on rides, often don't have that great of effects, and they don't even bother hiding the fact that they're screens.
      I often don't like screens in rides at all, but I will say that Disney just tends to do it better and tends to leave them out of actual rides.
      Most of the examples you used for screens with Disney are theater experiences, not rides. Of the ones that are "rides" the only ones that require 3D glasses are simulators. NONE of the actual rides require 3D glasses, and blend screens with animatronics and scenery extremely well.
      Forbidden Journey you wear tiny 3D glasses, it shoves a screen in your face with edges clearly visable, giant robot arms everywhere, it shakes you around in a nauseating way... it was technically impressive, but not immersive in the slightest.
      On the other hand, Hagrid's was an incredible ride that's even outdoes Disney in many ways and it didn't have any screens as far as I remember.
      I will say though, the Spider-Man ride was Universal's most immersive application of screens, and it somewhat redeemed the idea of using screens in rides for me.

      Unfortunately it continually breaks down. Almost half of the times I have been on the ride the Kylo Ren scene was out of order. The large tab from the ceiling just hangs down and the cars stop for a moment in front of it and nothing happens and you move on. There is some aspect of that sequence that has been troublesome but my guess is it has to do with the huge airflow because an animatronic is just an animatronic.

      Just look at the projection area and you can see the wiring and junction boxes and lights running along the wall behind it.. Then turn around and see it exactly mirrors the items on the wall behind you.
      Then walk towards BB-8 and look back behind the projection area and on the far wall and there are no lights or cables running along the wall.
      It is done extremely well but it isn't really a hologram at all but a screen image distorted to look like a hologram.

    I got to ride ROTR on the first day as well, was in boarding group 32, so we saw how long the wait was in the first break down. But once our boarding group was called, it was about a 30 minute experience from queue to finish. The detailing is amazing, like the blaster shots that are clearly from screens creating burn marks on previously pristine walls. It was an awesome immersive experience. Was also my first time at Galaxies Edge. I thought it was awesome.

  • @usroadtripper

    I've ridden this twice now, and I truly think it's the best attraction I've ever seen. It is a really incredible demonstration of what Disney can do when they embrace technology and don't cut their budget. Every element of the ride is spectacular, from the Rey hologram, to the light saber cutting through the ceiling, to the way the Kylo Ren animatronic reacts when there is an explosion. It is just unparalleled in the amount of immersion it gives you. I can't imagine any Disney enthusiast being underwhelmed.

I mean I'm a behind-the-scenes junkie and for the most part I know how all of the rides and illusions work in Disneyland but this one I am still trying to figure out. I think I have an idea on how it works but it's still messing with my mind a bit and is making me feel overwhelmed. I've never seen such an advanced immersive ride before and I have a feeling there's going to be more coming soon in the near future. My only concern about this is I wonder if there's going to be more down time, more problems, etc. With so much going on and so much technology in it how does that translate into actual operating time vs. down time?

      I'm guessing the ceiling panel rotates? We don't see the moment the saber is actually thrusted through, but I'm sure the trail it leaves is hidden behind the underhang it originates from. The panel is rotated, giving the appearance that the saber is moving through the panel rather than with it.

    • @Cherucha
      @Cherucha 4 роки тому +3

      I would of just had the ride vehicles turn you away faster if possible . Like when the hull is damaged and is pulling us all out of the ship the transport could turn guests a bit faster in the opposite direction like the pressure of the force just blew us far away. That way guests would not notice unless it was a second or third ride through and they purposelessly glanced back to see what was going on. Again might cause a bit more whiplash or not even be possible, or make timing go out of wack but It's the only thing I can really think of to solve the issue.

    • @mikemckee6583
      @mikemckee6583 4 роки тому +2

      Craig Hawkins I thought the same thing about the roof panel conveniently falling down. It looks really contrived. Without completely reworking the effect somehow, I think they could at least improve it by making the panel look less generic. Maybe have some more random looking wires and structure come down instead. The way it is, it doesn’t look like believable battle damage, but rather looks like it was made to do precisely what it IS made to do, hide the animatronic.

      Marco Antonio Garcia Tbf, looking at the ride and the land as a whole? I can see it being relatively easy, a bit costly admittedly but Disney can take it, to back date the land into a period either just before the original trilogy or during the original trilogy. The Millennium Falcon ride probably wouldn’t even need to be touched, but I can see Rise of the Resistance being backed dated, replacing Kylo with Vader etc etc and having to be the Rebellion.

    when they say "kylo ren and the first order" instead of just saying "the first order" it makes me feel like im not in the movies

    You mean you don't want them to rip the ride out and replace it with a people mover???

    I rode Disneyland's version last weekend and was amazed. I still get chills when I watch footage. Thanks for sharing.

    This ride looks absolutely incredible! With my trip to Disneyland coming up in 2020, I'll be experiencing this myself soon!
