Have to give him credit. He's improved quite a bit since he first started doing videos. This one was well sourced and for the most part a very accurate summation of what we know to be true of the Space-Restaurant.

He took the criticism he was getting from various people about where some of his info was coming from, addressed it and now tries to give as accurate info as is available.

He's become my go to source for Disney updates.

I forget which video it was, but he got pretty lit up in the comments

Not the extended queue. It's the unfinished HP lounge.

^Glad they're tearing that thing down. Was only used for ops storage. Didn't even have drywall up or anything and sat like that for over a decade.

Opening 2021?

This thing will shoot up quick enough to be open sometime next year almost definitely.

I'm guessing this is really going to be a proving ground for the technologies they're planning to use for the Star Wars hotel, but having an outside vendor footing the costs.

The dining room will contain more than 350 seats. Customers will access to the dining room thanks to two fully functioning elevators with large digital screens, similar to those used by tourists to access the viewing platforms at One World Trade Center and the Burj Khalifa. The Space Restaurant is using these screens on the elevator to simulate the trip to the space station. After exiting the elevators, customers will enter into the newly constructed restaurant that will be connected to the rear of the existing lounge. After walking through a small hallway, guests will enter into the main dining room that will have a 250-foot-long digital screen that flanks the back of the curbed room.
