Extra overflow tables and seating setup right outside of Theaters of the Stars (BatB show).

Not sure if it’s indicative of anything or nothing more than an attempt to create space, but all the closed merch stands and Cairo truck that were at the exit to Indiana Jones nearest Backlot Express have all been removed.

This. The indoor dining (and similar cast break rooms) have caused infections and is the gaping hole in their COVID prevention strategy. At least the Disney owned & operated places have tables spaced pretty far apart, but anything not owned by Disney on property is just as packed as it was pre-pandemic. How Disney allows their operating participants to have tables 3' apart from each other is beyond me.

Dianoga is back, and much more active than before.

Following on my Oct 5th report, looks like the Dianoga water fountain feature at Galaxy's Edge, is back! :D It'd be greatly appreciated if someone there now, could confirm. Thanks.

True, but would you say that an indoor eatery contributes to the energy of a land?

We'll always have Rex.

Meals seem like more of an essential so it is somewhat understandable but it doesn't make sense to me that they haven't converted more outdoor space to dining.

How long did Luxo last in Pixar place? Is this the shortest lived effect in dhs or was that luxo?

Yeah I believe that that was the last kinetic object within the land. There is the same thing next to the bathrooms in the marketplace but I assume thats down too if this one is down. It's really sad that they promised so much yet they delivered so little. The attractions are really fun, but once you get off something it just feels missing in the land. I know they went over budget with the land and thats why they cancelled so much but, they should have went all out. It's star wars

Horrible. Absolutely horrible. I imagine they fired enough people that they couldn't keep this working? Forgive me if this isn't the case, but this is truly the only actively interactive element in the land, right, besides the lights that change colors when you aim your phone at them? Like, everything else in the app is "implied", nothing moves or changes, right? Honestly, what a horrible final nail in the coffin on the premise of the land. Reminds me of the "character card" they gave at that Galactic Nights upcharge event, where they promised more and more cards to come out detailing the different character interactions you would have throughout the land. What a massive spiritual loss for this land this is.

They still allow indoor unmasked dining which is significantly worse than an indoor masked singalong. But if it were me I wouldn’t feel comfortable at either.

CommunicoraOct 09, 2020

A lot of Disney's protocols seem well thought out so this surprised me. I'm not sure how they think holding an indoor singalong is a good idea when we are dealing with a virus that is now confirmed to be spread through the air and not just via droplets.
