2 hours in, so far this girl has convinced me to never pay a big corporation a dime for a luxury experience. she and her sister blew $6k on this disney star wars fantasy and got fucking scammed hard

The problem specifically with this hotel was that they were charging ultra-luxury prices for an experience that by design would never be 'luxury', leaving an utterly tiny venn diagram of 'people who can afford' and 'people who want to do'. She points out in the video that for less $/day you can get the top-tier disney cruise cabin and have an actual luxury experience.

the fact that they custom built a super expensive stationary "luxury"-priced themed hotel and had shitty tiny windowless rooms with bunk beds is lulz as fuck

finished. a unique achievement in exposing the degeneration of beloved american cultural institutions like disney into low-effort dollar-chasing cash grab scams. you may know the theory of GC fraudscams, but the monumental level of detail this autistic nerdatrix mustered is so overwhelming that you'll throw a sledgehammer right through your disney+-playing 4K TV and dedicate yourself to classical philosophy after watching

It’s a legit great piece of work. I feel like I went on the experience without having to pay or deal with Losers or get fleeced.
Also, she does a devastating explanation on how cheap and evil Disney is — basically the “regular” SW park was supposed to have all the interactive features the hotel did, but Disney cheaped out on the park and put everything behind the effectively paywalled hotel. And even *that* experience was overpriced and shit.
If I were an Econ prof I would assign this video as an example of how add-on/upcharge culture infuriates the customer and makes everything worse. She explains it better than anyone I’ve seen. Disney is basically a fancy version of Spirit Airlines at this point, as she states.

haha star wars fans especially deserve this sort of treatment. sick takedown and hilarious, but i am certain disney will incorporate zero feedback from this misadventure into their next iteration of the windowless space hotel concept.
love how she described attempting to larp with one of the food servers and being met with the deadest possible gaze in return.
I very much liked the idea of this (the underlying multimedia resort concept) but the company doesn't have the same essence of being native to it in prior eras that would be necessary today to pull it off well
Lot of good ideas but very muddled execution and frankly probably just too big for a prototype of the concept
