BREAKING NEWS: Rise of the Resistance Breakdown on Opening Day
It’s opening day at Disneyland Park and similar what we saw out East in Florida, we have already seen a Rise of the Resistance breakdown.
Guests were lined up and ready to go this morning. Some reportedly arrived at the park as early as 3:50 AM.

To say things were “crowded” may be a bit of an understatement.

Once Boarding Groups were starting to get called, it was a matter of just 2 hours before the dreaded Rise of the Resistance breakdown was announced.
Following along in the Twitter-verse, we’ve seen guests sharing stories about what has been going on inline during the wait.
Due to “First Order Activity”, the ride has stopped right now, so we are in line just hanging out and waiting. #RiseOfTheResistance pic.twitter.com/mSJWz1mQJD

Some guests are feeling defeated.
I tried to go on Rise of the Resistance twice today. It broke down twice, each time when I was just about to get on the main ride. Mickey has it out for me

Other guests have had a more optimistic outlook and we’re hoping things work out for them!
Not going to post any other Rise of the Resistance pictures (don’t want to spoil it for anyone). It actually broke down while we were on it — but we will get to the front of the line later today. https://t.co/ScYQucw3Xp pic.twitter.com/5XW5vJ6hW9

If you ask anyone who has experienced the attraction, the wait is well worth it!
Who is over at Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland today? Did you get to ride Rise of the Resistance? And the BIG question to you all… is it worth the wait?
