Stepping off Disney’s new Star Wars-themed Rise of the Resistance attraction for the first time, it’s hard not to think: What did I just experience? Rise of the Resistance uses the newfangled in a way that serves the story. Like many new attractions, Rise of the Resistance uses an autonomous trackless vehicle. A trackless ride can sweep a space like a drone, interacting with its environment and other ride vehicles, backtracking, and moving in almost any which way. Rise of the Resistance ditches such cheap shortcuts, and is about as real, visceral, and transportive a ride as I’ve ever ridden.
