 This morning, Renée braved the crowds and the weather at Disney's Hollywood Studios to experience the all new Rise of the Resistance that just opened in Galaxy's Edge. How did she fare? And more importantly, what are the changes you need to be made aware of if you want to experience Rise of the Resistance any time soon? Written by Renée Girard It’s currently 5:25am and I’m here with just a few others at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. CMs are saying that park will open at 7am and that we may be entering the park before then but cannot join the virtual queue for RotR till 7am. Has that always been the case? From what I’ve seen, people have joined the virtual queue before 7?  30 minutes later at 5:55am and the line behind me is huge. Cast Compliment to all the cast members at Disney’s Hollywood Studios that are up and working before the sun is up and managing the insane crowds. May The Force be with you this holiday season.  6:35am, it’s raining. Gates are open!  6:48am and I’m in the park but can’t join a boarding group yet. And Starbucks has quite the line!  6:53am. Nothing to do but wait and keep check for boarding groups to open, go shopping, or get Starbucks. People are not happy that they got here early and can’t get a boarding pass yet. We’ll see how the app handles everyone trying to get one at 7am.  Success  While I wait for my boarding group... let’s ride!  No boarding groups have been called for RotR yet, so wait times for other rides are starting to climb.   “How about some boarding passes?”.  Even with boarding groups opening at 7am, they are still gone before 8am.  Not a bad score for so early in the morning!  Breakfast at Oga’s and then it’s time to join the resistance.    My group got called about 8:30am while I was at Oga’s.  I’m going in! No spoilers, I promise!  The queue has a Flight of Passage feel to me so far. Pretty sure the key word here is immersive.    Heading in to get our assignment from BB8 and Rey.  Just got off Rise of the Resistance. Absolutely incredible! There wasn’t any down time at all while I was in there. Lives up to all of the hype.  I’m exhausted and going to nap now but once again, Rise of the Resistance is amazing. If the virtual queue bookings are going to continue to open at 7, I’d still get there early - they were already gone before 8. I was off the ride just before 10. Totally worth it.     Related Videos:
