Welcome to another week of Ask Matt where every week I try my best to answer any question about the Disney-MGM Studios from planning questions to “what happened to...” questions. So if you’ve got something you’ve been wondering about or simply need clarification, please feel free to email them to me (use the form below).

Do u have a brochure with the times of the events for the Super Soap Weekend yet? - Jennifer
|
| Nope, no list of events to speak of yet. Certainly no schedule either. I wouldn't expect a list of events until later this month or so and a schedule possibly right before the start of the event. At any rate, nothing available yet.
If you're new to Super Soap Weekends or want to know what to expect, take a look at our information from the past few years and that ought to give you an idea of what's been offered previously. |

For the Super Soap FASTPASS, if I get a FASTPASS for all my children, do I get to see the cast for one soap? Or do I need to go one at a time to see each star? - Donnam |
| You line up by soap, so it is one long line. Then you make it to the FASTPASS turnstiles and the Cast Members will point you to the turnstile for your star and swipe your admission pass and if you want another star from the same show, you have to go back to the end of the line. |
| I keep hearing about this Jedi Training attraction that is opening up soon. Can you tell me more about it?- Trevor |
| The Jedi Training Academy, which just opened up as a permanent attraction, is located next to the entrance to Star Tours and has been a fixture of Star Wars Weekends. It's an attraction for kids where a number of children are chosen before show time to become Jedi Knights. The kids go up on stage and are given robes and plastic lightsabers (same kind you see at any toy store.)
The "Jedi Master" has a script that he seemed to follow very closely each show. Mostly he says things thatYoda said during the movies. He teaches the kids a series of moves with the lightsaber ("block high," "duck," "cut low") and they learn them in a specific order. They run through it a few times, until they all have it down. Darth Vader then comes out and the Jedi Master informs Vader that the kids wont join the Dark Side. Vader then duels with each kid, as the Master calls out moves to perform, just in case the child has forgotten. When all of them are done, the Master announces that Vader has been defeated and the Sith Lord marches off in a huff. Then the kids all get certificates. |
