[JennyNicholson]

Hey guys! As you can see, I'm still uploading content here, but some of my videos are bigger in scope, and I try to make them the best I can, which means they can take a while. If you weren’t aware, I do upload a less formal, exclusive video every single month to my patreon. That’s a backlog of 80+ videos at the moment, and all tiers get access to all of them.

If joining doesn’t make sense for you, that’s no problem! I’m so lucky to already have the amount of support I do over there. But it’s an option that’s available to you if you find the waits between public videos difficult. I get new patrons all the time saying they wish they’d known about it sooner, so this is me letting everyone know! So there! & please stop telling everyone I'm dead 😬

[itachiowo]

This video is so immersive I felt like Disney stole $6000 from me.

[badmiracle]

the ai droid talking to you in your cabin and totally glitching at “now, as for what you can do around the ship….bye!” was a bad omen, in hindsight.

[naluzoniro]

This is astonishing. A luxury LARP experience, but with no luxury, no roleplay, no riddles or puzzles... So a live-action experience : you are there. Alive. Existing. Don't ask for more, it'll cost you extra.

[Daigotsumax]

"The very first time a luxury cruise ship has ever been symbolic of the hubris of man" is said in such a deadpan way you might miss out on the fact it's the funniest line ever

[macmonkeyhat]

Can’t believe this video was in production longer than the hotel was open

[SeagraveSerpentarium]

The strangest thing just happened, I was sitting here enjoying this video and then Bob Iger came into my home and installed a large structural pillar between my desk chair and my monitor.

[portobeIIa]

the tidbit where Jenny was having small talk with Guanii stood out to me. It's not everyone who can be that laidback and basically be a quasi intrepeter for fun. The way they had a casual conversation full of compliments to eachother like Guanii was speaking an actual language is so wonderful, i have social anxiety so i cant act normal even when people are actually complimenting me. It goes to show that Jenny doesnt exaggerate when she really was the ultimate target audience for this and disney STILL failed even her

[jedisalsohere]

i remember seeing some AI advocate be like "you couldn't do this without AI" and as it turns out, they couldn't do it with AI either

[vox_invictus]

"You get out of it what you put into it" is a WILD thing to say to someone after they've *put six thousand dollars* into it.

[courtneysingleton]

I'm dying at Jenny consistently being the only person enthusiastically participating and getting absolutely nothing in return

[WeAreTheInsurgents]

Disney's advertising looks like how satirical films about consumerism depict large corporations

[cludbear]

3:28:54 There's a saying in audiophile circles: "If you spend £1, 000 on an audio cable, you will hear the difference. That difference isn't there, but you *will* hear it."

[youtubeletmeintoyoutube]

I like that Disney panic-fixed an error for her twice upon realizing they burned a huge influencer and there was still four hours of stuff to complain about

[abborne]

The way this entire thing could have been saved with a laser tag room

[jasonfischer]

As a designer, I can't imagine how awful it must be to be a disney imagineer. To be instructed by your bosses to design these out of this world experiences just to work so hard on them and then be told by your bosses you need to redesign it all because they are going to spend less money on it than what they promised; multiple times, probably all the way up to when it actually gets built.

[ghostlightplays]

I can't be the only one annoyed that the app uses the term "hack", when Star Wars has its own term for hack.
The term is slice. Slicers slice computers.

[yasminal]

there’s no experience quite like watching a jenny nicholson video as a podcast, only to glance over at the screen and she’s talking to me from inside a giant porg suit

[Noah-wxfm]

Jenny's Firsr Order supporting character being suddenly and randomly assigned to help the Resistance at the last minute without any previous indication isn't actually the flaw it seems at first, because the same thing happened to General Hux

[Mr.Thermistor]

How stupid it is to me to be on vacation and still be forced to stare at your phone to do anything. In a ton of the b roll footage you can see almost every single person staring at their phone trying to do the bs mission that dont even work. God this is so awful
