I know is sucks that people can’t afford things like this, but some of Disney’s most profitable park ventures are for the ultra-high-end guests.

I don’t think so. The hotel is completely lacking in standard amenities (a pool, comfortable lounging areas, uh, windows) and would be zero fun after 15 minutes without the illusion that you were a guest on a luxury space cruise. There’s nothing to do.

There are plenty of resorts that are out of reach for 99% or more of the population, and they do just fine. The problem is that not very many of that 1% (or whatever) are interested in a Star Wars resort. 

Unlike other parts of Disney World, it seemed like you could do it once and get everything you could out of it. It was probably too expensive to do more than once anyway. I’m wondering what kind of market research they did to justify building it and how many people would go there. I’m surprised Disney didn’t realize…

The best review I read for the Galactic Starcruiser was:

I guess Prince Harry didn’t do anything notable today?

More like you don’t understand what the Nona facility was for. Maybe google a bit, it has nothing to do with tourism.

This will have massive lore ramifications for decades to come.

wtf is this People Magazine detritus 

Was just too expensive. Never heard anyone say anything bad about the experience, just that it was too expensive. I would liked to have tried it, but not at that price. Don’t imagine theming it with the ST timeline helped too much either.

wow they must have taken a massive loss on this. i can only imagine how little interest there was to close this...was it open for a shorter period than it took to build?

The key to getting people to do something on TikTok is to call it “The [X] Challenge.” If you could get The Regular-Ass Water Challenge (“Can YOU handle drinking a pint glass of tap water? And yes, you CAN take the ice option”) trending you could put a stop to this nonsense in a week.

Strange antics we’ve seen from Seacrest in his many years on television, but this may take the cake.

Did an AI write this?

Seriously, just do this. It’s inexpensive, delicious, refreshing, thirst quenching, and you can control the amount of sweetness you want.

Beans should be creamy, not mealy. Maybe you aren’t cooking them right?

“Anyone with common sense might question whether a serving of water that’s been doctored up with both powders and syrups containing artificial sweeteners, flavorings, and dyes can still be called water as opposed to juice”

It’s remarkably satisfying comfort food even if you didn’t grow up eating it--sort of a softer version of a pot pie. 

I could have accepted “Take away the bread and the whole thing becomes poutine galvaude”
