We just need that Avengers ride. We need to see SOMETHING that isn't concept art and a timeline as when to expect it. This is a land right now where the characters and a flinging robot are the main draw, not the rides!
I'm with you on Eisner. I thought he was just really stupid, but after watching Defunctland's sub-plot of him I realize he was a very creative man who was trying to navigate a very stressful business in which, after losing his friend and partner-in-crime, tried to stay relevant in a rapidly changing world and ended up with more failures than successes.

WEB SLINGERS: A Spider-Man Adventure Shifts to Standby Queue Starting Tomorrow

I don't know about ROTR Ca. breakdowns, but on Magic they've been talking about a good number of DHS ROTR effects out of commission most of the time lately, chief among them the guns and Kylo AA.This is good news. I know they have been going back and forth with virtual queue and standby the last couple of weeks, but this is the right move for this attraction. Not sure if Rise of the Resistance will follow so soon, but on my last visit to the park a week or so ago it was very easy to get a spot in the virtual queue. The breakdowns throughout that day were brutal though. I have no idea if that is factoring into them keeping the virtual queue around or not but it is something I've thought about.
There's a Rey AA? You mean Fynn?I don't know about ROTR Ca. breakdowns, but on Magic they've been talking about a good number of DHS ROTR effects out of commission most of the time lately, chief among them the guns and Rey AA.
These are Magic posts from the last couple of weeks. (Kylo Ren in b mode more often than not and guns down)There's a Rey AA? You mean Fynn?
Interesting. I went on Rise at DHA back in late September and everything seemed to be working fine when I went on.

I don't really know anything about the tech, but the posters on Magic that seemed to know said the gun malfunction issue is what was causing the Orlando ROTR ride system to shut down. One Insider said thatI can't speak for what the breakdowns are here, all I know is that they seem to happen very often. That day I was there, the virtual queue "paused" about 5 or 6 times throughout the day. We did finally get on it and the guns worked as we approached the scene and stayed static as we went through it. The final Kylo figure worked fine this time but the last few times I've been on it that scene has been in b-mode. Again, not sure if that has anything to do with keeping the virtual queue around but it would make sense to me if it did.

Disney mgt. was so upset about the problem continuing that they told the techs to either fix the problem once and for all or shut down the gun effect for good.

With the way the building fell apart, that certainly looked like a safeguard/precaution in case this moment happened.
What I found intriguing was the dialogue of the show, since right after launch Spider-Man immediately says "[Name of A.I.], Airbags please!" , with the A.I. commenting the building does not have them. I don't recall hearing that dialogue in any video I've seen, so I wonder if that is something unique to when it knows there's a fault.
Someone on Twitter confirmed via a source that the line is indeed a failsafe audio that can be triggered by a stage manager.
Wait….this actually happened!?
This whole time I thought it was fake.
