honorable mention to our large sons of western europe for laying the foundation
Ah well see, if you read the article you'd know there were also buns with food coloring added to the dough so they're weird colors, and "milk" (including the quotation marks) from a soda fountain that has food coloring in it as well.
Disney = America in all the worst ways.
Being deceived into overpaying for cheap, gaudy stuff; a constant need for fantasy because it’s the top of concern of being a citizen here; non-stop marketing blitzes in our schools, on our foods and in stores through “cross promotions” that are so ubiquitous that have the effect on our kids of a disinclination toward actually interacting with real nature funneled instead into this playland cult of paternalism, consumerism and capitalism; and all because you’ve been insidiously marketed to since the day you were born and given Mickey Mouse pampers.Entertainment has no effect on consumers, though. They would have acted, believed, and thought the exact same way without the treats. Never criticize the treats, you joyless scold. -Too many Hexbear users
I'm just imagining something like eggnog with the spices replaced with artificial berry flavor and food coloring. Which would probably be ok if it were like a third rum to thin it out and cut the cloying sweetness, but as like just a normal drink would probably be very gross.
I've had both the blue and green milk at Galaxy's Edge. It's actually not egg nog like, nor does it contain milk. It's vegan, and made from rice milk, coconut oil, and then fruit (flavoring?) of some sort. In the parks, you can get rum added to it. The blue is sweeter than the green, so I preferred the green. I enjoyed it a lot actually with the rum.
It is milk with sugar and some plant extract that you normally have to go to an upscale or ethnic supermarket to see
No, there's no milk in it. This is wrong. It's vegan and rice based.
I have no problem with "theme park" as a recreational place filled with industrialized playground equipments, but the American concept of it as this open-air theater where the performers are puts up this elaborate LARP while the attendance are not obliged to play along just feels so weird. I mean you have all these actors pretending like they're princesses or sentient toys while the guests continues plodding around in ballcaps, sweaty t-shirt, continue, etc being all touristy, and this is supposed to be magical?! How?
Every red blooded American roleplays as Wedge after landing the killing blow in their X-Wing blowing up the Deathstar's exhaust port is gonna be hootin and hollerin at hotel starwars
No, that's better than what's in practice because here you have the audience participating with the open theater. In reality they would just records with their phones, because definitely noone else have ever recorded this once in a lifetime experience that isn't just going to be replayed multiple times for the rest of the park's run time.
Theme parks are treats except roller coaster. Going hundreds of kilometer in a train (good) with loops and banks is a necessity for a modern industrialized human.
edit: roller coasters are just high speed rail with one station :train-shining:
apparently there were "side quests" in the resort. I feel only abject disgust
:baby-matt: omg they had a funnel cake shaped like the deathstar, did you see that??
I would not be surprised if there were "experience points" to "level up" and by that I mean paying more for more vague praise and titles. Sort of like Star Citizen.
People paying a lot of money to avoid admitting they just want to go LARP with some nerds.
It'd be cool if Disney added an advanced level of lightsaber training to make it more challenging for older guests.
"Am I too old for this? Nahhh"
Please Mr Star Wars increase the intensity of my stupid diaper baby pretend game
Crustaceons are so cool man they shouldn't be treated like this
Would love to have a shrimp tank st some point. Their little hands are so cute and you can feed them pieces of banana :rage-cry:
I loved stargazing out of that "window," which seemed to be a screen, as I fell asleep each night. It was so soothing and relaxing.
Who wouldn't want to stare at a monitor from a windowless cube.
They're supposed to be on a starship in space. They supposed to get a golf course view or something?
i love paying 5200 dollars to eat a kid cuisine and watch tv to fall asleep
So now I'm curious. They're supposed to have a catered banquet with foie gras and duck a'l'orange or something? That totally breaks the immersion? Or they should get some cool space food, like you'd get on a real starship?
And what would you substitute for the space view? A view of the pool? Of the air conditioning unit on the next building?
real food. meat option, veggie option and vegan option dressed up to be star wars. i'm not asking for gourmet dining but it has to be better than the pictured meat mound and granola bar.
alcoholic beverage options. someone here mentioned drink tickets and that's a good way to introduce actual value for what you've paid.
instead of a screen, how about building these stupid pods into a sound stage with practical effects, even having it be a less obvious screen outside of the window for increased immersion?
you are very invested in defending this stupid treat and it's weird, honestly
I'm just now seeing this interaction i Applaud you. I just made a thread about it myself and was looking for other threads on the subject
A bit weird someone on hexbear is defending this level of treat garbage
Edit: Hes banned, and im not suprised.
The original Star Wars had dozens of professionals building scale replicas to create the illusion of space flight, and a ticket to the theater cost $5.
Disney Star Wars has some CGI bullshit cooked up in Blender by a couple of interns, for a 1000x markup.
For $5k over two nights, fucking yes. Hook my window up to the Hubble.
Why does she always put "milk" in quotations it sounds cursed as hell. And what's with the blue shrimp??? Why would you do this?
Though tbh if it weren't for the price, I wouldn't judge people that like this kind of stuff, and it sounds like she had a good time because her Large Star Wars Husband had a good time, so that's fair enough. On the other hand a two night stay at the Star Wars LARP resort costing 5200 is demonic.
Going to hack Disney's whole operation by revealing you can simply dress up as Star Wars on halloween
That food looks disgusting. Might as well go to Comic Con if you want to dress up and eat cheap food. At least there you'll have the added bonus of running into a celebrity and getting a glimpse at new content.
