      I probably saw you then! We were on the first or second voyage and loved it so much. ❤ My mom had an Ewok that she named Enoch and the crew members before the shuttle thought that was awesome. If it would've been open just a little longer we would've gone back.

I'm absolutely gobsmacked; and so thoroughly jealous/happy for you that you got to experience this art multiple times from multiple angles. Good for you, truly. Thank you for preserving and sharing this incredible work.

    Dearest Kitra and dearest Peter, thank you. I know how hard this must have been to compile. You masterfully told the story of the halcyon in a way only someone on an ordinary adventure can. Where we had never met before this, you warmed our hearts showing us your adventures in our happiest place on earth. You brought happiness every week to our house before, during, and after the pandemic. You inspired our son to search for black kyber crystals. And to find a voice as a little vlogger. After this, we all became family. And that will be tattooed (literally) on me for ever. We love you guys. Good journey and may the stars always light your way.

I started watching your videos when Galaxy's Edge opened, as I was planning a trip to Disneyland with one of my cousin's family and I wanted to get the most out of our time on Batuu.

    You know, it's ok to like both videos. Some people had a good time, regardless of price (and issues). Some people wanted to have a good time, but didn't, price being part of it. I'm glad you had fun, you've given me ideas before I do this stuff, but Jenny made some pretty good points as she's also a fan. Same with Marvel or SW, some of us complain because we hate seeing something we love do poorly, some are just along for the ride...

      Haven’t seen her video. I’m sad she had a very bad time. All I can tell you is we loved it with a few nitpicks. It’s not that we wanted to love it it was that it was an amazing experienced (albeit badly marketed and expensive). We personally know hundreds of people who have gone and most loved it, some loved it so much they got tattoos of the Starcruiser logo. I’m sad nothing like this will probably happen again.

    Because our collective memories are all we have left of the Galactic Starcruiser.
    Thank you both for taking the time to splice together this chronological look into the Starcruiser stories. You have such an honest way of presenting your adventures; people who watch your videos trust your opinions. Thank you for showing what the Galactic Starcruiser truly was... and why the Halcyon and her cast and crew are so dear to those of us who journeyed with her.

    This is such a fitting tribute to an experience that the world just wasn’t ready for yet. I loved everything about the Starcruiser concept, but all the parts that made it amazing were the things that the average person would never indulge in. Complete immersion in an incredible story where you can live out a childhood dream while dressing up and being around likeminded people? To the boring average people, that’s just cosplay and LARPing and being nerdy, all things people have been told they shouldn’t enjoy (even though we know they’re lying to themselves.) The Starcruiser was for an idealistic world where people are joyful and passionate, and a lot of people just aren’t ready to be like that. I’m heartbroken I’ll never get to experience the Halcyeon, but I’m hopeful it will return in some way.
    Peter and Kitra, thank you for giving us the most in depth videos possible and for sharing this with all of us who never got to experience it.

    Man what can I say... This was such a ride. I remember when you guys first went and I was so excited because I knew when you first stepped through the doors that it would be everything I wanted. After experiencing Galaxy's Edge I knew that this would be something I had to experience. But then all of a sudden it was being shuttered and I, like you, felt sad that I and many others would never get the chance to experience this one of a kind adventure. Disney really should have handled this entire thing better. Be it the price point, how they should have transferred great characters like Gaia & Ouannii to Galaxy's Edge but didn't, or just not giving the whole thing a better chance at life.
    It was great to go back down memory road and rewatch all of this all over, and in full. This alone will stand in the years to come such a complete showing of something that many who hated it and wanted it to fail will forget, but that we, the fans and admirers will not.

    My friends, Peter and Kitra, I want to thank you from the deepest bottom of my heart for going to such lengths to document the truly remarkable piece of art that was the Halcyon. I have literally wanted to do something like that since I was 4 years old, so, 41 years of hoping. Sadly, my finances and health never allowed me the chance to visit the Halcyon, and these videos are the closest I will get. I also appreciate you documenting all of the various storylines to provide a full coverage. I felt moved to tears when Kitra was too. (In fact, I've never made it through Order 66 without weeping.) I agree wholeheartedly with Peter's assertion that the Galactic Starcruiser didn't fail Disney - Disney failed the Galactic Starcruiser with its overpricing and its . . . I'm not sure the adjectives I want to use here would be acceptable, so I will settle for Disney's abysmally poor marketing. I've been slow-writing a Star Wars story, inspired by the release of Galaxy's Edge, which your videos have helped me flesh out to get the real feel, and decided to expand the story to include the Halcyon. Your videos there will prove an invaluable tool, and a lasting source of joy as I permanently add this video to my Star Wars ultra-binge list. It took me two weeks to work up the nerve to watch this, as I have been so saddened by the closing, and seeing the cast of the Halcyon also growing so emotional at their farewells is doing the same to me as I'm typing this. Again, thank you so much, for this amazing epic journey into an underappreciated piece of Star Wars.

    Thank you so much for sharing the Galactic Starcruiser with us. Your documentation was excellent - I felt like I was there, and I watched every minute that you posted. There was so much magic integrated into the cruiser. Totally teared up at the end, when the cast were clearly saying goodbyes to the Halcyon and not just to the audience. I'll be glad to be able to visit this ship again by watching the video here.

    this video was amazing, I'm so glad I got to experience it through you both. I cried so many times watching, during the light saber training and especially the rock moving training. The stuff he was saying to you Kitra was so life inspiring I was balling watching it like he was speaking to me. the Gaya performance was so cool. watching this has me so excited for Star Wars night and I can't wait to go to Ogas and get some of the same drinks and glassware that was on the galactic cruiser. this was so fun to watch I wish I could experience for myself, but this was the next best thing. thanks for sharing.

    I was pretty upset when I found out how expensive this experience was. I have been a huge Star Wars fan for as long as I can remember and when they first announced it (before the pricing had come out), I told my wife "we are doing this!" So sad to see it be so short lived and not really even have the opportunity to save to try and go. I just wish Disney would have maybe even looked at modifying aspects of the experience to make it more financially accessible to a wider audience. That all being said, thank you for putting this all together. I watch it with some envy, yes, but overall excitement and happiness. I am, at the least, getting to experience it in some manner and that is thanks to you both! Keep up the great work!

You should honestly think about cutting this down to feature film length and perhaps adding in some interviews and put it out as a real documentary. I'm serious (with the blessings from Disney of course -- heck they may even buy it from you). You basically documented what was one of the best live-action / immersive theatre productions ever made. Those actors deserve recognition.
