For the record, $6k can get you a great room on a REAL cruise ship, with food, drinks, and actual sightseeing excursions included. If you’re thinking about going to this hotel, just don’t. Go have a better experience out in the real world.

“there’s 2 ways to get on the starcruiser, 1) be rich, 2) be a very sick child” LOL

Keep in mind, $6000 is the baseline. After getting ad-ons, upgrades, alcohol, costumes, etc, it could be closer to $10,000+

Ya know, Vito, the exterior of the Galactic Starcruiser has all the charm of a downtown parking garage, or a cold war bomb shelter - for anyone of my generation!

Disney exec: “You can live out your very own Star Wars story!” Park Goer: A Star Wars Story “Join our hero as he stands in line for 120 minutes, holding his piss and giving his wife the silent treatment”

Didn't Walt fight to keep Disneyland prices low because he wanted everyone to experience it? This isn't just anti-star wars but anti-disney

The white light tower in the dining room looks like a bunch of paper clips put together

$6,000?!!?!! For what? To eat in a dining room that looks like a Marriott ball room and sleep in a closet? I’m good. Now if that was actual hotel in space….. Okay $6,000 makes sense.

Those "pods" for children are what always struck me as odd about these rooms. They look really uncomfortable. They also look like only a small child would fit in them. What if your child is... well, not a small child?

That room doesn’t scream “Star Wars” to me at all. It looks like a standard Las Vegas hotel ballroom decorated with some fancy lights, and the people are being “entertained” by a subpar lounge singer. As for the rooms, I wouldn’t want to stay there at all. Even if the experience cost $500 rather than $6000, I still would have no interest. This could have been something absolutely awesome, but I don’t think Disney is capable of awesome anymore.

I think the best part is that Disney did nothing to change anything that the fans criticized. Good for them. They can go down with their ship.

If you wake up in the middle of the night, it will feel like sleeping over at a friends house in elementary school. You just have to lay there quietly until your friend wakes up.

I want the "Vito Star Wars Experience tm." where Vito dresses as a wookie and burst in rooms in the middle of the night and shoot a bowcaster.

It amazes me how little Disney cares about STAR WARS

I'd much rather spend 2 weeks in a cabin in the middle of the woods, with no electricity, phone access or internet than spend a single night in a place like that!

Thanks Vito, with all the awful world news lately your content keeps my mind on simpler things my friend. Stay safe and keep the content coming! Greetings from Nicaragua

"This is the next level in immersive storytelling" Says the person who's probably never wrote a book in her life.

That screeching, ear-assaulting song would make me run screaming for the airlock.

$6000 for two nights DEMAND SPECTACULAR!! And vintage STAR WARS everywhere! How hard is this to figure out DISNEY?!? I don’t see any “spectacular “. Disney has lost their f**king minds on this one

Someone, PLEASE pay Vito $6,000 so we can see his Star Wars immersive experience and him dressed as Chewbacca.

MY REVIEW OF THE EXPERIENCE: I just got off the Starcruiser two days ago and all I can say is wow! I paid 6,000 dollar base fee and probably spent 3k on souvenirs and Disney schlock. I think it’s money well spent considering I did 2 days of LARPing and watch the Ooze man from Power Rangers sing. My favorite part was watching Kathleen Kennedy take a lightsaber and stab Mark Hamill in the back. Felt weird and out of place but I’m a mindless droid now because if Disney made it - it must be right. As for the food - the orange chicken and fried chicken was amazing. I had to pay 15 dollars for a side of fries and 3 dollars to get them salted but boy were they munchy. Nom nom! The drinks were incredible too. Since no women with a brain were on the ship, I was unable to awkwardly flirt with any of them and buy them a drink against their will. However, my 25 dollar half pint wine cooler was amazing and was cool because it was purple. Ooo space drink cause purple! Anyways, it was amazing riding the Star Trek ship and spending half my salary on this trip. Looking forward to next year!

I hate how they keep talking about the Halcyon having an amazing legacy. What legacy? It's all made up by some Disney execs in a meeting!

You had me cracking up lol. My husband looked at me like I was insane.

I just found out that my kid, who is recovering from leukemia, qualifies for the make-a-wish thing. After hearing that I could get to go to this hotel for free I'm STILL not going to this thing. Screw Disney!

It seems to me that they've made the critical error of designing a "fan experience" in the same vein as Star Wars and then tried to fashion a canon around that experience and force it to be popular. You're supposed to do it the other way around; wait until something comes around that happens to become insanely popular, and then you fashion the experience around that. That way the marketing is almost completely taken care of. If people are already excited and enthusiastic about the source material it's a lot easier to generate hype for an immersive fan experience based on that material. They just slapped the Star Wars title on this thing as a kind of shortcut to accomplish the same end, but it's presenting a (pretty pitiful) an angle of the Star Wars universe that is completely unfamiliar to the fans, and apparently quite lame besides. PS: Always love hearing you sing the blue lady song, Vito!

Vito immediately shutting up during the make a wish kid part is hilarious. Smart move Vito.

The part that the planners seem to have missed is that when you go to Disney, especially with a couple of kids, the hotel is your break from the park. I have already promised the kids that we are going to go swimming in the pool, I or my wife are about to look forward to crashing on the couch or bed for about 20 minutes and then join them at the pool. I don't want the hotel to simply be another place where I am surrounded by the park. It's my relief valve so I don't strangle somebody on day four of the vacation. Add into that Disney's penchant for paying their cast members the bare minimum and this labor intensive immersive hotel experience is going to start falling flat very quickly after the wave of paid shills and influencers have left.

haha you are brave for actually playing the video, the other youtubers only went through it frame by frame, big points to you. god dammit though, if Gaya had the blue elephant (max reebo) and the band backing her up on that "new world' song then this would have been ten times more awesome and immersive, its the lack of those little details that arent there which will ultimately bring the end of this attraction. and remember...everything is better when its free.

So many KZfaqrs covering this topic-but nobody does it better than Vito!

Cant wait to hear about the storys of people who are claustraphobic spending 6000 dollars to spend 2 ish nights in a concrete bunker with no windows. And the freak outs lol

that "family" is straight out of central casting

The tiny rooms don't bother me too much, since rooms on cruise ships do tend to be about that size. With the bathroom they didn't even try to make it remotely "spacey", the sink counter just looks cheap. What really gets me is the dining room. It bears little to no resemblance to a ship of any kind; no viewports, no sign of serving droids, the whole room looks like something you could rent out in Reno for your kid's bar mitzvah. I mean, Disney has always been a money-grubbing corporation, but at least they used to offer something truly innovative.

I find it funny that they're trying to pass off the bridge control panels of the "starcruiser" as something out of Star Wars, when they actually just look like hospital equipment of some sort. You know, the machines that look big white puffy-shaped marshmellowy-box things, kinda like an MRI machine? Yeah, those kinda machines. Idk, maybe that's just me, but I still find it hilarious.

I am disabled and use a walker to get around - I'm not sure it would even fit down the corridor to where the beds are - its that ridiculously small!

Its weird. I have seen Disney cruise ship videos that impressed the hell out of me. What the heck did they spend all the money on? It all looks so cheap and amateur.

The bars on that "Light Tube" looks like paper clips. 5:34

Now we know what toilets look like in the Star Wars universe. 🤣🤣🤣

Would have been easier to just beech and convert a cruise ship and run it like a cruise... Medieval times is also great, And a much better value.

Ohhhh yeah, time for some more baffling news on the Star Wars hotel

they built a themed hotel that's never been done before except back when one was made for 'star trek' and people said was a lot of fun back in the day. the only thing 'next level' about any of this isn't the storytelling method using cross media -- which has been done, too -- it's next level marketing to sell merchandise. remember, pixie-dusters, all any of this bullshit is, from the comics to the books to the movies and shows to the theme parks, exists to sell you merchandise. it has nothing to do with art, creativity, or integrity, it's 100% designed to get brainless walking ATMs into their clutches every bit like a casino is built to confuse you and keep you playing.

One man named George Lucas had an idea 50 years ago for a space fantasy film trilogy, he wanted to actually tell a great story, studios rejected it when he pitched it, but one studio saw potential and aloud him to make it, it was amazing, George never wanted to put Star Wars in the wrong hands….40 years later Disney takes over and it’s another money making machine where only Rich people can enjoy things and it’s being milked to death, but that original trilogy and hell even the prequels the story of 1-6 a very solid story through and through is Star Wars, then Disney makes sequels that makes them pointless and sold it to Disney to milk for all entertainment

Actually this could've been a really fun dinner show. Just have everyone relax, get their blue shrimp & other food & drinks, watch Gaya singing her song, then all of a sudden the First Order takes over & takes everyone hostage so the Jedi heroes have to run in & save the day then end it with the fireworks show & fun desserts as a celebration of the heroes' victory!

I am one of the people who could afford to take my family to this experience. But I wouldn't give the sweat of my balls for this garbage!

"I got to touch Chewbacca in a special place". Sounds like a $6,000 value right there.

Was waiting for the next installment of this dumpster fire

I still can't get over the fact people will pay $6,000 for a box truck ride to a concrete bunker with a dash of Star Wars thrown in with your blue shrimp and Juicy-Juicy cocktails!

I loved it when that young guy says 'The Halcyon has such a rich legacy'-it does -you could have fooled me . This looks like The Star Wars Holiday Special of resorts.

"Are these people on drugs" 😂😂 Vito your too funny man!!!!

Those rooms look like crap. I get they want to go ship and in that it'll be minimal but you can make it look more quality while retaining the ship look. Unique accent lighting, interesting use of tech, etc. Idk, I'm not a huge starwars fan but I feel like any fan could create something better than this. This looks like a value air bnb

For one Han Solo in carbonite, you can upgrade to a suite.🤣

Room or prison cell? How many people will be searching for escape pods after a day of this?

14:37 that's why I love the internet, Vito talking about his dying friend who was ignored by Make-A-Wish, priceless

Looks like they took all the tables from a restaurant in Disney they just closed to steal the staff for the galactic experience. Just saw the two complimentary bottles of hot water lol in the room.

That room looks like a deluxe prison cell. Disney is disrespect af for charging 6k for this mess

My daughter was a make a wish kid who went to Florida to Disneyworld and Universal. They interview the kid to find out what they really want. She got to go thru Jedi training (Hollywood studios in 2016) when they had it which was the most impactful, amazing experience where she faced her fears and learned the power within her. And yeah, they got rid of it for galaxy's edge.

I think rich people would call this experience "slumming it"

If I had that much money to waste on a vacation, this hotel will be the last thing I spend it on, lol.

You know Disney told the hotel designers, “how can we create the most profitable, yet depressingly lifeless concrete facility known to man to double as a Prison when it inevitably goes defunct?”

If you ever see an overly excited man show up to a child's house with mouse ears and balloons telling him that he's going to the star cruiser, call the police.

I watched some full length videos about this cruiser - I’m appalled that the actors who portray aliens aren’t wearing animatronic parts, the alien head appendages just look like funny hats - you could make high quality animatronic outfits (like pan from pans labyrinth for example) for 6000 dollars a person

Regarding the room: I’m pretty sure I had more room in a studio condo when staying with my wife in Manila, and that was less of an apartment and more of a hallway with a door and bathroom.

A family of three is $2,650 a night. So $5,300 to live in a room that would be right at home in the bowels of the Titanic - steerage. At that price your hotel room should be a luxury sweet, not a damn closet with a bathroom in the corner.

in the bed room, if you look closely, there is even a Star Trek sign on the wall screen LOL

I literally go in much bigger and nicer hotel rooms for work at 100 dollars or less a night....the room is tiny for just one person....a whole family is supposed to be in there??

“allow our employees to find their own personal empowerment” is code for “drink our kool-aid and we will tell you you’re awesome”

I want what the presenters on these videos are on!Talk about Hyper (Space).40 hours in a windowless bunker surrounded by Larping Disney influencers for $6000.Shoot me now!

This looks like IKEA came out with a Star Wars themed dorm room.

I don't think most of the stuff is that bad but the price is a deal breaker. $6000, I would rather buy a shit ton of props and other star wars merch and trick out a room in my house.

That story you shared about your late friend’s experience with Make-a-Wish is the reason why you were skeptical about The Galactic Cruiser Hotel from the very beginning. A very sad but valuable lesson. My condolences for your loss.

They should be using augmented reality. That would make it feel like you're really in the Star Wars world but all Disney is bothered about is making money

That "dude " at 13:30 shorted out my "RADAR" .. LOL

Glad Disney was able to use a terminal child for some free advertising.

Things I could do with 6000 dollars, get a nice computer, upgrade my tv/entertainment center, fix up my car, buy a new bed and some good clothes. After all that I would still have enough to go on a vacation somewhere else and have a good time.

The rooms remind me of In N Out. It's too clean and the rest of the ship too. It's practically empty. For a ship so old you'd thing there would be scars and junk fixed where it had to be patched up or pieces that were obsolete got replaced. Seriously. It looks too quiet too. If I had 6k I would rather Rent a junk yard or something to LARP in with friends.

"I'm sure they're a great organization, but they totally screwed my dead friend." ROFL Haven't had a good laugh like that in a while, lol

I think Rey doing a Sith lord force choke on some rando says it all. LOL.

The tables look like any other at any restaurant

Honestly, the shower was the best part for me.

It occurred to me that singing like that all day, every day would be rough on the vocals. The singer probably doesn't have enough time to rest the vocals, practice or calibrate. It's gonna be real easy to go "off" without being able to do those checks. Also, being that rough over so long a time, they'd need to take extra careful attention to keep their vocals intact. Even if it's just the same short line repeated over and over, and that will get mind-numbing real quick. Singers don't want to be stuck doing that, they want and need to sing different things too.

If only the 1% can afford it then how will Disney keep the rooms full? I think they're trying to get as much of their money back up front then will drop their prices once all the rich people stop going.

Exactly, this is a renovated Motel 6. What a joke. Cheap night club, mini beds where even my short 5'5" frame is too big. I would rather take that $6k and spend a week in Las Vegas.

Vito just doesn't get it. This isn't just a hotel. This is the NEW WORLD.

My God that's so sad watching these people having to wear masks in the hotel while the important people don't have to

Reminds me of a movie called Magic Christian (1969) where in one part of the movie Ringo Starr and his adoptive rich father go on this hyper luxurious cruise where everything starts falling apart into anarchy, come to find out (SPOILER) the ship has been in a London Warehouse all the time. No thanks.

I totally believe Vito is totally playing Raid and is excited about it.

This screams of Disney running out of piggy banks to crack open. It's not that they're trying to cater to just the super rich, they hope the poor are so wooed by it that they spend their entire savings to go there.

"HE DIED ANYWAY WITHOUT A TV" what can i say that made me laugh

Nothing says romance like smashing on a glorified air mattress with my kids jammed into shelves 10 inches from my face

You built a concrete bunker with people pretending to be Jedi. 🤣😂😆😁

What's with the paper clips decore around the light fixtures?

It sad that they didn't invite real star wars fans and nerds but invited people who know star wars because of disney.

Six THOUSAND dollars, with upcharges!

The Star Wars hotel looks like one of those sham Santa's grotto' that you read in the newspapers at Christmas.

Gaya- sings….Mr. Mackey -“flat!!! You’re flat!!!”

“Look at all these schills..” “Anyway this video is brought to you by Raid Shadow Legends! I definitely play this game.”

The prices are just so high for such a short time that it feels like if its not the most amazing thing ever, its not good enough =)

once it opens to the public, people in the restaurant gonna be like "shut up lady!"

Looks like a colorful jail cell!

Its like they have never heard of LARPG or something. Yer not inventing anything, you're just putting it inside a concrete tomb.
