November 17, 1978 - Broadcast on US television for the first and (to date) only time

If you have never seen the Star Wars Holiday Special, believe everything you have heard about it!

Released weekly now i believe. Hope it's all as good as the first two episodes.

Going to be ages until it gets a dvd release, but i'm sure it will as Disney won't miss out on making money.

New poster

In a way that poster sums up what Scorsese said about the MCU, that they weren't cinema but a theme park ride.

That poster is all about bigger and better. One little X-Wing fighter against the whole fleet of Star Destroyers. It's too much. Would have worked far better as one Star Destroyer up against the X-Wing. One huge ship vs one tiny ship looks exciting. That simply looks daft.

should of been the Falcon and a super star destroyer. Know what there going for the resistance is out manned but could done it better.

Watched the first two episodes of the mandalorian, excellent let's hope the rest of the series is just as good. This goes someway to make up for the lacklustre force awakens and awful solo and last jedi.
