Star Wars: A Galaxy Far, Far Away

R2D2 and C3P0!

Are you looking for a Star Wars show where you can see your favorite Star Wars characters up close? Well, look no further!

Darth Maul!

Star Wars: A Galaxy Far, Far Away is located in Hollywood Studios and is a show outside. Star Wars: A Galaxy Far, Far Away shows you scenes from different Star Wars movies.

Chewie!

Different characters from Star Wars walk up on the stage too such as C3PO, R2D2, Darth Maul, Chewbacca, Boba Fett, Darth Vader, Stormtroopers, Kylo Ren, Captain Phasma, First Order Stormtroopers, BB8, and Rey. (Rey was not yet in the show yet when I took the video down below.)

Boba Fett!

My favorite part of the show is when the different Star Wars characters go on the stage because it feels like you’re in Star Wars with them.

Darth Vader and Stormtroopers!

My advice is to go to the show very early because it gets crowded before the show when people are taking spots to stand. Do not be late for Star Wars: A Galaxy Far, Far Away or else you will end up in the back with a tall person in front of you. If you remember this advice you will enjoy the show!

Kylo Ren, Captain Phasma and First Order Stormtroopers!

Here are some additional pictures:

BB8 and Rey!
All together on stage!

Frozen Sing Along Review

Frozen Sing Along is a fun sing along show in Hollywood Studios.

Welcome to Arendelle!

Princess Anna is trying to find her sister, Queen Elsa. Want to know if Princess Anna finds her? You will have to see the show!

Okay I told you!

To pass the time the storytellers of Arendelle tell the Frozen story and you get to sing along to your favorite Frozen songs. The people that tell the story though are so funny! They tell a lot of jokes.

The Arendelle storytellers with Kristof.

I like it because the jokes they tell are funny. I recommend doing this attraction if you can no longer stand the heat or if you love Frozen.

Princess Anna!

Disney Has Finally Announced When Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance is Opening!

Finally Walt Disney World has announced when Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance will open in Galaxy’s Edge in Hollywood Studios.

Izzy’s Must Do Activities at Disney World! Jedi Training Edition

The badge they gave me at the end of Jedi Training!

Another one of my must do activities at Disney World is Jedi Training. Jedi Training is a Star Wars themed show in Hollywood Studios that you can take part in. They train you how to us a lightsaber and in the end you get to fight a Sith and you get badge. ( For more information on Jedi Training click here!) Jedi Training is only for kids between 4-12 and you have to sign up for it before you do it. I recommend getting there early.

New FastPass+ Tiers Coming To Hollywood Studios

I am so sorry for not posting recently! I was really busy with studying for Finals. My last day of school is this Tuesday and then I promise to post a lot of blog articles.

Currently, FastPass+ are separated into two tiers. Tier 1 is for the popular rides meanwhile Tier 2 is for the not as popular rides. The FastPass+ tiers that are at Hollywood Studios right now make it easy to ride a popular ride with a minimal wait time. On August 29, though, they’re going to change the tiers.

Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run will open in Galaxy’s Edge on August 29 but will not have FastPass+.

I think it’s a good idea to use Tier 1 on the most popular rides. For example: Slinky Dog Dash, Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, and Toy Story Mania to name a few. These rides have very long lines so you should probably use Tier 1.

Green Army Soldiers can be found in Toy Story Land!

Tier 2 meanwhile should be used on Muppet Vision 3D, Indiana Jones, Star Tours, and Voyage of the Little Mermaid.

The new FastPass+ tiers don’t come out until August 29, so hopefully we will get more information!

A New Roundup Rodeo BBQ Restaurant is Coming to Toy Story Land

A new restaurant is coming to Toy Story Land!!! It is called Roundup Rodeo BBQ Restaurant and it will be a table service restaurant.

Roundup Rodeo BBQ Restaurant will be a backyard barbecue that you have been invited to by Andy and the Toy Story toys. Andy has apparently cut and taped three cardboard boxes together to make a rodeo arena.

This restaurant will be located to the right of the Toy Story Land entrance. This is very exciting!

The New Things Happening at Hollywood Studios

Last year was a great year at Disney World but 2019 is going to be even better.  Here are some things that I am looking forward to at Hollywood Studios in 2019. 

The new location for Mickey and Minnie’s Railway Runaway is behind us!

Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway will be opening in the fall of 2019, though there are some rumors that it might be opening in the summer (now there is a rumor that this will not be ready until 2020!).  The ride will be in the same location that used to have The Great Movie Ride.  The ride will have a new technology called 2 and a half D, that is supposed to be like 3D but without the glasses, and you will be riding in an animated scene.  Lightning McQueen’s Racing Academy will also be opening.  It will open near Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith and will be a show starring your favorite Cars characters in a big race.  Wonderful World of Animations will open in the May of 2019 and will be a night show that is for Hollywood Studios 30th Anniversary.

And of course, the biggest new thing at Hollywood Studios will be Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. For more information on this new land, check out our prior blogs here and here.

Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Updates

We have some Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge updates for you!!

First off, you will be able to hear Yoda in Black Spire Outpost! The Play Disney Parks app will become a Star Wars datapad while you are in Batuu. (For more information on the Play Disney Parks app, click here!) The four key functions will be a Hacking Tool (helps interact with droids), a Translating Device to help translate Aurebesh (the written language in Star Wars), a Tuning Tool so you can eavesdrop on satellite transmissions, and a Scanning Device. The Outpost Control game will show your loyalty to either the Resistance or the First Order.

Do you know the story of how RX-24 became the DJ at Oga’s Cantina? I’ll tell you! RX-24 first flunked out of Star Tours, (for a Star Tours review click here!) then he found his way to the Battle of Jakku. He crashed on Batuu from a TIE Fighter chase and became the DJ at Oga’s Cantina.

Don’t forget that Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge opens August 29 in Hollywood Studios!

Bo Peep is Coming to Toy Story Land Soon

Bo Peep is coming back in Toy Story 4.

How exciting!

Toy Story 4 comes out on June 21, 2019. I do not know much about the movie, but I do know that Bo Peep has changed A LOT!!!
