Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser permit for set installation

Posted: Wednesday May 13, 2020 2:11pm ET by WDWMAGIC Staff

Although construction has mostly come to a halt at Walt Disney World, permits continue to be approved, with the latest being for Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser.

Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser construction - November 2019

The permit is for "Fabrication and Installation of Sets" and was signed May 13 2020, valid through to late January 2022. Of course, this does not indicate imminent start of work, and it isn't clear on the timeline of when the permit was applied for.

The contractor is Adirondack Scenic, who has done previous work for Disney including Frozen Ever After, Na'Vi River Journey and Morimoto Asia.

Disney had previously announced Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser will open in 2021 following reservations beginning in 2020 - but that timeline has now very likely shifted as a result of COVID-19.

The Starcruiser proved that some had little value for money or time. But still not enough for it to be as bad as it was.

what an obtuse observation. 😘

After what Jenny's done, I see no reason for a Defunctland video. Now 10-15 years from now, a Bright Sun Films abandoned video on the building itself would be good.

It's obvious now that time holds little valve for some people.

And if you've ever watched any of her videos before, you know she goes into every theme park experience with full enthusiasm. Somewhere in this video she quips about how the upside to bad experiences is good content but that's never what she's after.

I'm only 2 hours into the video and it's currently the only Galactic Starcruiser content that caught my interest until the future Defunctland episode.

I would take a bullet for Jenny Nicholson. EDITED to add: Just completed the four hour and five minute video and I think I'd take two bullets for her. Starting with time stamp 3:48 (that's hour 3 and 48 minutes in) forward, she articulates some sentiments a lot of us have expressed with Disney and the Florida property in general but I think she does a particularly good job of using aspects of this trip to illustrate them..

Either that or they accidentally thought that everyone in the world was swimming in disposable money and willing to give it away to a new vacation concept. The wealthy Disney fans went through this very fast, and after that, not much of a customer base was left.

Exactly right. Adventures Club closed because it didn't work due to its very small but dedicated fan base. Same thing goes for Star Wars Hotel. Common sense tells you that sales must be decided by the masses, not by a small group of dedicated dweebs.

I’m not sure about that. I’ve been a huge fan of Disney’s newer rides- BATB (Tokyo), MMRR, Remmy, Slinky. I’ve also been a fan of newer shows- Luminous and others. People just generally just aren’t a fan of cheaply or badly made content. Harmonius had the barges that ruined sight lines, Enchanment was simply inferior to its predecessor, and most of the recent Marvel duds just haven’t had good stories. Some similarly unperforming works made in the past included Treasure Island, Pearl Harbor, and Chicken Little. Disney also completely screwed up figuring out how big a market of cosplayers actually was and the financing required to make a cosplay hotel profitable, but made similar mistakes in the past with things like Disney Quest and Club Disney. Basically-every time Disney gets cheap and starts to forget basic storytelling they get burned. It’s not new, and it wont be the last time.
