Like all of us out here in the webisphere, our pals over at The Bearded Trio are preparing themselves for the opening of Galaxy’s Edge and all of the news and info that will be pouring across the net when it does. Brad Monastiere has written an article about how Disney World in Orlando is bracing itself for the hordes of visitors that will descend upon the park in late August.

I tried to gauge the crowd and some Disney Cast Members what they’re thinking about the park’s eminent opening. As much as Star Wars means to me personally – I saw A New Hope in the theater when I was 4, remember it like it was yesterday – I always struggle to guess the franchise’s impact on the public in general. Its impact on me is deep and I doubt I go a day without consuming something of the franchise – reading a book, listening to soundtrack music, or tracking upcoming product releases.

But how does the addition of an exclusively labelled Star Wars land, attached to the southwest corner of Disney’s Hollywood Studios (northwest corner of Disneyland), measure up in terms of its expected impact among the public?

For the full article, head across to The Bearded Trio and tell them we sent you.
