    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?

          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

        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.
