Awesome / Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge

Go To

  • Taking the Millennium Falcon into hyperspace in Smuggler's Run.
    • Also, if a crew is able to work together, they can capture TWO containers of coaxium with minimal damage done to the ship, racking up a huge amount of credits.
  • Activating one's personalized lightsaber for the first time in Savi's Workshop.
  • The First Order, terror of the galaxy, being cowed down by a little girl.
  • Watching the Disneyland fireworks inside of the land. (There may be uncanniness for some with the lack of music.)
  • In Some Jerk with a Camera's vlog at Galaxy's Edge, Brianna comes cosplaying as Mara Jade and chats with Rey, making it an unofficial meeting of the original saga with the reboot.
  • The entirety of Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance. As with the land, the attraction is incredibly immersive, and it shows, even down to the finest detail! From the massive sets to the incredible visual effects, it's no wonder it's called "Disney's most ambitious attraction ever created".
    • The premise of the ride is an Moment of Awesome for YOU. Even after getting captured by the First Order, you remain defiant, never giving the First Order the location of the base, even when Kylo Ren attempts to probe your mind. And with the help of Finn, the Resistance, and your transport's onboard R5, you are able to escape the First Order and return to the relative safety of Batuu, alive and unharmed. In short, YOU, a wet-behind-the-ears Resistance recruit, faced down both Kylo Ren and the First Order, the terror of the galaxy, and LIVED!
    • A throwaway line in The Rise of Skywalker reveals that this humiliating defeat killed Hux's career and led to him to his actions in the movie.
  • The Galaxy's Edge Saber Meet got a lot of amazing photos of Jedi and Sith sabers lighting up the park, including these of the wielders hailing Rey.
  • Some of the custodial staff carry sabaac decks while on the job and will challenge guests to a game if they see you hanging near the trash canisters.
  • The impressive way certain movements in the costumes trigger voicelines and how the actors maintain character.
