As for the rooms, I wouldn’t want to stay there at all. Even if the experience cost $500 rather than $6000, I still would have no interest.

    MY REVIEW OF THE EXPERIENCE: I just got off the Starcruiser two days ago and all I can say is wow! I paid 6,000 dollar base fee and probably spent 3k on souvenirs and Disney schlock. I think it’s money well spent considering I did 2 days of LARPing and watch the Ooze man from Power Rangers sing. My favorite part was watching Kathleen Kennedy take a lightsaber and stab Mark Hamill in the back. Felt weird and out of place but I’m a mindless droid now because if Disney made it - it must be right. As for the food - the orange chicken and fried chicken was amazing. I had to pay 15 dollars for a side of fries and 3 dollars to get them salted but boy were they munchy. Nom nom! The drinks were incredible too. Since no women with a brain were on the ship, I was unable to awkwardly flirt with any of them and buy them a drink against their will. However, my 25 dollar half pint wine cooler was amazing and was cool because it was purple. Ooo space drink cause purple! Anyways, it was amazing riding the Star Trek ship and spending half my salary on this trip. Looking forward to next year!

    It seems to me that they've made the critical error of designing a "fan experience" in the same vein as Star Wars and then tried to fashion a canon around that experience and force it to be popular.
    You're supposed to do it the other way around; wait until something comes around that happens to become insanely popular, and then you fashion the experience around that. That way the marketing is almost completely taken care of. If people are already excited and enthusiastic about the source material it's a lot easier to generate hype for an immersive fan experience based on that material.
    They just slapped the Star Wars title on this thing as a kind of shortcut to accomplish the same end, but it's presenting a (pretty pitiful) an angle of the Star Wars universe that is completely unfamiliar to the fans, and apparently quite lame besides.

      They treat both the audience and the property with disdain and contempt. The thinking is very similar to what we see in comics, where "creatives" think they can create instant fan-favourite characters by replacing existing heroes with more diverse and inclusive knockoffs.
      They can smother this starcruiser in Star Wars paraphernalia and memberberries, but at its heart it's just a corporate LARPer pretending to be something it isn't. They missed the mark on creating a Star Wars experience when they decided to cater to wealthy normies instead of fans.

Something to note is that Disney really wants to make Star Wars **NOT** "Lucas' Star Wars" and Luke is an extremely important character in Lucas' star wars. Both Luke and Han were killed off as a way for Disney to mark their territory. They wanted the nostalgia of the OT without any of the George Lucas and not having their own character depth to understand all the themes and plot points in the OT (and PT). They wanted people to realize Star Wars is their own invention. But the reality is that all that was extremely insulting to the fans and the resulting new product is a bland sci-fy media that few people outside the NPC crowd that it was redesigned for actually likes.

    The part that the planners seem to have missed is that when you go to Disney, especially with a couple of kids, the hotel is your break from the park. I have already promised the kids that we are going to go swimming in the pool, I or my wife are about to look forward to crashing on the couch or bed for about 20 minutes and then join them at the pool.
    I don't want the hotel to simply be another place where I am surrounded by the park. It's my relief valve so I don't strangle somebody on day four of the vacation.
    Add into that Disney's penchant for paying their cast members the bare minimum and this labor intensive immersive hotel experience is going to start falling flat very quickly after the wave of paid shills and influencers have left.

    The tiny rooms don't bother me too much, since rooms on cruise ships do tend to be about that size. With the bathroom they didn't even try to make it remotely "spacey", the sink counter just looks cheap. What really gets me is the dining room. It bears little to no resemblance to a ship of any kind; no viewports, no sign of serving droids, the whole room looks like something you could rent out in Reno for your kid's bar mitzvah.

    they built a themed hotel that's never been done before except back when one was made for 'star trek' and people said was a lot of fun back in the day. the only thing 'next level' about any of this isn't the storytelling method using cross media -- which has been done, too -- it's next level marketing to sell merchandise.
    remember, pixie-dusters, all any of this bullshit is, from the comics to the books to the movies and shows to the theme parks, exists to sell you merchandise. it has nothing to do with art, creativity, or integrity, it's 100% designed to get brainless walking ATMs into their clutches every bit like a casino is built to confuse you and keep you playing.

    It occurred to me that singing like that all day, every day would be rough on the vocals. The singer probably doesn't have enough time to rest the vocals, practice or calibrate. It's gonna be real easy to go "off" without being able to do those checks. Also, being that rough over so long a time, they'd need to take extra careful attention to keep their vocals intact. Even if it's just the same short line repeated over and over, and that will get mind-numbing real quick. Singers don't want to be stuck doing that, they want and need to sing different things too.

    If it were catered to "rich" people, it would be FAR more exclusive and costly. $6k for 2 nights for 4 people is $750 per person per night. I've spent more than that for a Vegas room per night. It IS very high for what you get and the value is almost non-existent so I wouldn't waste my money on it, but Disney actually did have a chance to really bring back the fans it sh*t on over the last 7 years. They could lower the price point, extend the stay, not ret-con the ENTIRE series to forcibly insert this junk into the soul of Star Wars, and make the experience so inviting and accessible that people would be lining up to stay. I know it's hard to build a business plan on "what if" sales like concessions or merch, but their theme parks know exactly how to generate this revenue so that shouldn't have been an issue. Give me a high quality Luke, Han outfit or Chewie's bandolier and just keep my wallet. Kylo and Rey who? not so much.

    What they should have done:
    1. You arrive at a station where you board an AT-AT to take you to a shuttle port. You are prisoners of the Empire. Through window slits, you see a battle raging beteen tie fighters and x-wings. Occasional blasts shake the AT-AT. In the cockpit, animotronic pilots yell instructions to keep quiet. The AT-AT pulls into shuttle port.
    2. You board the shuttle (think Star Tours) that evacuates you from the planet and takes you up to an unknown ship. You could even have g forces as you leave the atmosphere. The shuttle pulls into the hangar. Shuttle door opens and you are inside a massive hangar where you see the millenium falcon captured and storm troopers inspecting it.
    2. You realize that you are on the Death Star. A few stormtroopers show you to your cell. When the doors open, Princess Leia is lying on the bed. The stormtroopers tell her to get up and come with them. She is to be questioned by Vader. As Leia passes the guests, she slips them a "clue" telling them to look for R2DR.
    3. You are assigned duties on the Death Star and giving a stark warning from Lord Vader that anyone caught interacting with Rebel spies will be dealt with harshly.
    4. When performing duties, R2DR rolls up and displays Leia hologram revealing the message she left for Obi-Wan.
    5. You now realize that you are on the Death Star during Episode 4!!! Luke and Han are already on board and plan to rescue Leia...WITH YOUR HELP!
    6. You distract stormtroopers giving R2D2 time to open trash compactor doors.
    7. You help Obi-Wan shut down tractor beam.
    8. You witness the battle between Obi-Wan and Vader.
    9. You escape with Luke, Han, Leia, and Chewy, on the Falco.
    10. The Falcon takes you to a rebel base where Luke thanks you and says "May the force be with you."
    BOOM! THATS HOW YOU STAR WARS FOR $5000 PER PERSON!!!
