Star Wars: The Force Awakens Breaks The Internet

Posted on October 19, 2015 by Arleigh

It’s not hyperbole when I say that Star Wars: The Force Awakens broke the internet tonight. Fandango announced pre-sale of tickets early by accident which caused the massive Star Wars fandom to rush on-line to be able to buy tickets before they ran out for the early showing on December 17, 2015. Well, this hasn’t gone down well with many who thought the pre-sale orders were going to go up after the trailer debuts during halftime of Monday Night Football.

I was one such out-of-luck individuals, but I remembered my days of youth when pre-ordering tickets to such event films meant going to the theater itself and buying them in person. This I did and I’m blessed to have gotten all the tickets I need.

Thus, despite Star Wars: The Force Awakens breaking the internet it would seem doing things the old-school way still rewards those who still thinks in analog and not just digital.

Now, let’s watch the latest trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens over and over before it premieres on December 18, 2015.

The Poster For Star Wars: The Force Awakens Is Here and Look Who’s Missing

With the movie’s release just two months away, the official poster for Star Wars: The Force Awakens was released earlier today and it looks great!

It looks very Star Wars-y. At first glance, it looks like they made sure to include every single character in the Star Wars universe in the poster.

There are new faces.

There are familiar faces.

There’s even a new mystery character standing behind R2.

Could this be a new Death Star? Is the third time the charm? Hopefully, the Empire has finally figured out that they have a problem with that exhaust portal.

Did you notice who’s missing?

Almost every major surviving character in the Star Wars universe is on that poster. Luke Skywalker, however, is missing. Does this mean that Luke Skywalker is only a minor character in The Force Awakens or does it mean something else? Luke Skywalker is such an important character that there is no way that his absence would not be noticed.

Maybe we will learn more when the next trailer for the film is shown tomorrow during Monday Night Football.

Comic-Con Reel Looks At Star Wars: The Force Awakens Behind-the-Scenes

Nothing more to say than Star Wars: The Force Awakens is just 5 months away. It’s a wait made to seem even longer after witnessing the behind-the-scenes reel shown during this week’s San Diego Comic-Con.

May the Force be with you.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens A Fandom Into A Frenzy

Posted on April 16, 2015 by Arleigh

I was at work when this trailer dropped and I can honestly say that I couldn’t wait to go on break so I could watch it and allow myself to react in an honest and proper way. To say that I lost my ever-loving mind once the trailer began playing would be an understatement.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens looks to return to it’s proper space opera roots. Roots as in the first trilogy instead of the much-maligned (deservedly so) prequel trilogy which would end up marking George Lucas’ final work on the franchise he created in 1977. Walt Disney Studios has bought all that is Star Wars and the industry which sprung from it’s creation and are now master of all.

J.J. Abrams now has the tough task of pulling back in the fans that felt disappointed at how the last three films in the franchise turned out. From what this teaser trailer has shown he seems to have come up with a new entry in the franchise that may just delight fans old and new.

Oh yeah, Chewie is back alive and well. No more of that dropping a moon on his head crap.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens set to give the world a fine Christmas 2015.
