hi this is Josh which resort eveyone and

Studios to give you a construction
update for March of 2019 we hope you

did you see the are john siding back
there rewind if you didn't also be sure
to follow us on social media resort TV 1
on facebook twitter and instagram so
we're going to start the video like we
always do outside the park there's a lot
of big updates the skyline or
construction the new bus stops are open
all kinds of great stuff so let's go
ahead back outside the park and take a
look at what's new well there's the new
skyliner station from this side and i
love the new jazz soundtrack they've got
out here you can hear do you want to
hear do you want to build a snowman in
the background that's so cool
and of course you can hear the
soundtrack but you can also see the new
restroom building they're all themed to
the same kind of Art Deco style is the
entryway and these new bus stops open
just in the last week or two they're
really big and spacious and again like I
said themed of that same Art Deco
styling as the rest of the entryway here
I love that kind of aqua teal bluish
color there and you can see contemporary
and Wilderness Lodge right there in
front of us and then on down the line
they're all individually numbered and
this pathway over here on the left
actually leads down to the Epcot
resort's boardwalk for a swan and
dolphin yacht and beach club and then
eventually to Epcot so if you're
wondering how to get to that pathway
it's still here but it's just modified a
little bit it's past the new restroom
building that I showed you just a minute
or two ago now this is not the only new
bus stop they're actually three of these
big long bus pavilions here so let's go
look at the other ones then we're back
at the Skyliner station and there's no
testing today I don't think they do much
testing on a weekend and this is a
Sunday but you can see the cables there
heading all the way down towards a leave
Caribbean Beach and the RIT the new
riviera resort and actually kind of see
it way back in the back there
so you can get a better idea of what the
bus stops look like from the roadside
see there's actually a parking area
there on the right and then the best the
bus loading area is on the left and then
the turn around here there's actually
space for tour buses as well there so
it's not just Disney buses tour buses
shuttle buses group tours things like
that school tours can park here as well
and here's the directory you can see all
the resorts are listed as well as on the
bottom there on the bottom left you can
see buses that go to the different parks
Disney Springs is available after 4 p.m.
and then just to the right of that you
can actually see again the skyline are
heading down towards Caribbean beach and
Riviera resort way back there I love
that new jazz soundtrack
[Applause]
[Music]
they were on the other side between the
two longer pavilions here and the
walkways are all really wide so what's
really cool is that you can actually see
that they can handle large crowds very
easily so Disney is definitely getting
ready for the opening of galaxy's edge
with these bus stops and just really
improving the infrastructure and just
ease of getting in and out because they
know that once galaxy's edge opens this
whole place is gonna be completely swamp
everyday pretty much all the time and
this is the third and final bus gate and
some of the hotels here you can see the
Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek bus going by
there so some of the other non Disney
resorts have buses that park here as
well that was not quite finished there
with the paint around the Walt Disney
World transportation sign but I'm sure
they'll get that soon it looks like
maybe the tour bus is parked over in
this area across the cross the road
there so they may be able to drop off
over here though not completely sure
about that but it would make sense
[Applause]
there's a good look at the bus stops
from this angle and you can see tower
tear in the background just to kind of
get a idea of exactly where we are
[Music]
one of my favorite things about this
again it's this walkway it's just so
wide so it's really built to withstand
the crowds like I said before I think
Disney has done some wise planning here
so hopefully the security renovations
are getting close to complete - I'll
show a little bit of that as we get
closer to it and that will allow guests
to move through security a little faster
as well and here's another look at the
skyliner station from the side get a lot
of paint work done on it I wish I could
have shown you some of the gondolas on
it but unfortunately not running those
on the weekends so just be on the old
bus information station where they had
Coke and everything else to buy there is
where the new security kiosks are going
to be and that's going to be a lot
bigger kind of a horseshoe-shaped
security area and hopefully get lots
more guests through the queue is faster
again for galaxy's edge and here's
Sorcerer's Apprentice Mickey with his
broomsticks really pretty topiary there
and again right adjacent to that is the
new security checkpoint there it's going
to be like I said almost a horseshoe
shape
and I don't know when that'll open but
here's the existing one and the entrance
here and we will go ahead and go back
into the park and right here in the
entrance area we have this beautiful
logo drawn here for the 30 year
anniversary of Hollywood studios which
will be happening on May 1st of this
year so 30 years ago May 1st it opened
on May 1st 1989 and so we'll have May
1st 2019 so I love that logo it's really
neat so all throughout the park they
have these 30 years signs to celebrate
again 30 years of Hollywood studios
can't wait to see what they actually do
on the 30th anniversary that'll be a lot
of fun so we'll probably one of us will
hopefully be there to show you guys that
got the Star Wars show going on in front
of the Chinese Theatre here not really
an update but it's a lot of fun
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
alright well we're gonna go into launch
Bay and see if there are any updates in
there I don't think there are any huge
updates but we'll see if there's any
changes justice displays their
merchandise or anything like that as you
can hear the Star Wars show going off
behind me so here we're inside the main
building this is the first gallery that
you come to when you come out of the
movie and I don't think there's anything
new in here
a long time ago in a galaxy far far away
[Music]
there's the speeder anakin speeder from
episode 1 storm troopers Alert storm
troopers are out and about
[Music]
[Music]
there is no need to be alarmed during
DBC moonlight magic and actually a
jobless meeting in here and they do at
some points have Jawas meeting in these
areas so it's pretty cool actually extra
parts for the g2 droids inside of the
Star Tours queue a lot of little Easter
eggs in this display pretty cool as part
of c-3po zarm down here they do have
some new artwork really cool stuff this
is very dramatic here Princess Leia
someone has to save our skins it's the
name of the painting it's pretty cool
Wow that's actually pretty amazing
believe that's from the last Jedi
yep learning the force alright so a
little shopping with Josh here real
quick is that these lounge fly backpacks
that Jenna has the Yoda and r2d2 and
even me I'm like okay that's pretty cool
not a girl but if I was I'd probably
have one of those and here's some of the
merchandise some robes and different
t-shirts and things pretty much the same
not huge changes here but they do have a
place where you can customize magic
bands and phone cases alright we'll go
inside Walt Disney presents to look
around I don't think there's a lot new
but they do have a Dumbo preview in
there as well as the Mike and Sully
meet-and-greet that we showed last time
so let's go inside and take a look
around
[Music]
and again I show this on every update
just because it is so cool but you
really need to walk through here and
really look at these exhibits take some
time it's just amazing to see all the
memorabilia here and I'm so glad this is
still here like things like this model
of Adventureland and The Jungle Cruise
at Disneyland just so cool it's worth a
look and there's Dumbo course this is
the cartoon Dumbo and the preview is for
the live-action Dumbo but still there he
is oh there you go if you can dream it
can anybody tell me what attraction that
comes from post it in the comments if
you can dream it and what is the rest of
it and also what attraction does it come
from and the galaxy's edge display is
pretty much the same as it has been but
still amazing and I can't wait to see it
in person it has really taken shape over
there I wish I could give you guys a
better view we're going to go into Toy
Story land to see if we can see it but
it was really taking shape there's the
first order at-at Walker and it's gonna
be in the rise of the resistance ride
full-sized a taps that'll be pretty cool
and then you've got the renderings there
at that little critter there in the
whatever kind of liquid that is and this
is the Monsters Inc experience and one
of these days I'm gonna get here early
enough that I can do this without
waiting in the super long line but you
can see the doors and stuff in there and
it's just pretty pretty amazing so we'll
show that as soon as we can and right in
front of the Walt Disney theatre which
usually shows one man's dream the story
of Walt Disney now it's showing this
Dumbo preview and there you can see more
of the live-action Dumbo it's pretty
cool for those ears
[Music]
that's really neat I love the signs
there look it's all wood and painted
like it would be in a real circus there
everything's aged a little bit it's
pretty amazing and here's some attention
to detail look at the straw there below
the platform
[Music]
Wow let's go around look at the side
here
[Music]
pretty cool I'm sure everybody's seen
the previews and this is more of an
extended preview inside the theater of
course we can't show that but you can
look on YouTube on Disney's official
channel and you can see as some of the
preview material if you haven't seen it
and here we go they actually are
displaying some of the costumes from the
movie very authentic period clothes for
children here and this is directed by
the way by Tim Burton so it'll be really
interesting to see what he comes up with
this is some of the children his
children Millie and Joe they're supposed
to care for Dumbo
and here's municipal home of the
Incredibles and Jenna did a whole vlog
about this place so if you want to check
that out you can see more about
municipal there but it's pretty cool
even just in a little details here like
this visitor center sign it's pretty
amazing I had not noticed before that
you can see galaxy's edge from this over
the fence here right next to the
entrance to Toy Story land look at the
mountains there that looks really
awesome I'm gonna zoom a little bit it's
gonna get a little pixelated but Wow
look at that I know that's not the
highest quality because we're doing
digital zoom here you don't have an
optical zoom lens but that is still
really cool Wow beautiful colors I don't
think the drumline is coming up behind
me we'll get them as they come out
[Music]
he's an indoor toy
he's been outdoors for a few months now
so maybe he'll get used to it and of
course the main reason we're in Toy
Story land right now is to get a great
view of galaxies edge still even with
all the trees this is the best view of
galaxies edge inside Walt Disney World
at least inside a park I think you can
see it some from some of the roads a
little bit but wow it's really coming
along a lot of the buildings and Rock
work are getting finished and I've heard
that the Millennium Falcon is completely
installed as well but you can only see
that I believe from the air
that really looks a lot further along
than the last update just a few weeks
ago and if they're gonna open it in
August they definitely need to get it
finished so that's pretty cool we'll
just give you different angles of it as
we walk up to the fence here and again
this fence will be the junction point
between choice where land and galaxy's
edge you can visit two imaginary worlds
within just a few footsteps of each
other
[Music]
it's a little different angle
Wow you can really see the scale of it
how big it's going to be pretty
incredible we'll walk around here by
aliens swirling saucers and get another
another view here
Wow
really incredible yeah I don't remember
seeing this mountains the last time on
the left you can see the wing of a
spaceship on the right-hand side and
here's another view right here just
behind Buzz Lightyear so there you go I
love all the little domes and buildings
there really looks like you're on an
alien planet pretty amazing really
reminds me of Tatooine but more
mountainous and one more angle here as
we listen to the drumline and of course
again I know that galaxy's edges on its
own planet
but I just I'm kind of comparing it to
some previously seen places in the Star
Wars universe
so maybe less desert than tattooing that
kind of reminds me of the buildings are
similar and of course Mickey and
Minnie's runaway railway is coming soon
here to the Chinese Theatre but no major
updates on that everything's pretty much
as it was for the last update this
courtyard is still beautiful and wide
open so that's always good to see
and coming down beautiful commissary
Lane here right next to of course the
commissary restaurant we have big
construction wall up here in front of
some of the meet and greet areas right
behind the Mickey and Minnie red carpet
dreams area but also have Chip and Dale
meeting guests over here so that's a lot
of fun having a good time over there and
this wall almost covers up some of the
meet-and-greet area but also where the
Starspeeder and some of the photo areas
across from Star Tours were so they must
be aria
revamping or refurbishing that area as
well
so as you can see the walled off area is
pretty big that's also to the side of
the restrooms there across from Star
Tours so not exactly sure what they're
doing there but probably just changing
things around where some of those that
photo spots were getting ready for
galaxy's edge and there have been rumors
that they are going to do something with
this area here Muppet vision and the
pizza risen with some of that stuff to
connect Star Tours to galaxy's edge but
nothing officially confirmed yet so
let's head down here towards galaxy's
edge and Grand Avenue
all right so this isn't an update it's
been like this for a while but here it
is this is the main entrance to galaxy's
edge and so here it come in August this
is going to be a very busy area and
actually I'm wondering about how small
this entrance is it's going to
accommodate the amount of guests that
they are forecasting that will be here
and I don't know if they're gonna use a
reservation system for a Walt Disney
World like they're going to for
Disneyland I haven't really heard that
confirmed but I've kind of heard both
ways so somebody leaveth believe a
comment if you know for sure one way or
the other way they're going to eat
whether they're going to leave or have
the reservation system here whether
they're just gonna leave it open for
everybody to come in and I can't wait to
actually walk here of course when you're
walking in this area which will be right
in front of the smugglers run Millennium
Falcon attraction and it's going to be
wall-to-wall people and people doing
selfies and everything else but it'll
still be amazing to see it so as I
mentioned there are these rumors about
Muppet vision 3d eventually going away
but I really hope nada is a great movie
it's just so much fun and it's so much a
part of Hollywood studios just because
it's been around almost since Park
opening so of course this biggest
amazing Statue of Liberty here
another update here is that Pizza Rizzo
has been closed now for over a month and
I'm not really sure why because it's one
of the only places to get pizza in
Hollywood Studios other than over there
by tartar I believe you can get it over
there as well but such a big restaurant
here that can accommodate so many guests
I would think they would probably reopen
it before galaxy's edge opens because
it's on the same side of the park for
anyway pizza Rizzo currently closed not
serving well that's all for now for this
construction update at Disney's
Hollywood Studios for March of 2019 of
course it's kind of the end of March of
2019 but a lot of great updates a lot of
