So much happening this week. Monday, we had the Rebels finale, which dominated discussion until last night, when Harrison Ford crash landed a plane (he’s okay!) And Princess Leia #1 came out! All in all, an eventful week.
Ye gods, the post office parking lot has a pothole the size of a Sarlacc pit. Nearly got sucked in there and digested over a thousand years

Even though he gets blown up, the "Aaaalmost there" Star Wars guy is a perennial inspiration to me. #stayontarget

Harrison Ford’s crash landing
Of course Harrison Ford survived a plane crash. Have you not seen any of his films?
— Derek Haas (@derekhaas) March 6, 2015
I'll bet good money that I was more scared interviewing Harrison Ford than Harrison Ford was crash landing that plane.
— Mike Ryan (@mikeryan) March 6, 2015
Twitter: "We love you."
Harrison Ford: "I know."
— Dave Itzkoff (@ditzkoff) March 6, 2015
I'm guessing it took a helluva bit of flying by Harrison Ford to land that plane without killing himself or someone else.
— David S. Cohen (@Variety_DSCohen) March 6, 2015
"Kessel Run" is trending. Bless Twitter.

It would be awesome if they kept the plane on the golf course as an obstacle.

Rebels
Wait.. What did I miss? Did something bad happen to me? @blumspew @starwars
— Jason Isaacs (@jasonsfolly) March 3, 2015
Very impressed with how many strands they brought together from earlier episodes. Made for quite a finale. Bravo. #StarWarsRebels

The rebels cells in #StarWarsRebels season 2 look to mostly be made up of humans. Would explain Yavin 4 pic.twitter.com/90DDfgqRYa

Re: Cmdr Sato, I wonder if #StarWarsRebels is stacking the deck with POCs and aliens now to offset the inevitable wave of ANH characters.

Holy crap. The episode where Ahsoka left the Jedi Order aired on March 2. And then tonight, exactly two years later…
— Jesse Tschopp (@jrtschopp) March 3, 2015
Great symbolism in Mustafar. The site of Anakin's "death" becomes the place of Ahsoka's "rebirth." #StarWarsRebels pic.twitter.com/3VTSMXBTJd
— StarWarsintheClass (@StarWarsinClass) March 3, 2015
Its crazy that when Ahsoka was introduced most of us rolled our eyes at her, and now we're ecstatic that she's back. Way to grow a character
— Brian (@brian_nov) March 3, 2015
I have felt a great disturbance in the force…as is millions of Clone War fans have finally stopped complaining…at least for one moment.

My mom caught my reaction to seeing Fulcrum's identity! #StarWarsRebels pic.twitter.com/vtlvB3wHG4

More interesting lightsaber details regarding Ahsoka' new blades. They are less cylindrical and more flattened pic.twitter.com/V6eVK8f8sX
— Rebels Report (@RebelsReport) March 3, 2015
I wonder: if she works for Bail Organa, how much does Ahsoka know about the identity of Leia's father? #StarWarsRebels
— David J. Schwarz (@JoinTheSchwarz) March 3, 2015
Thinking more about #StarWarsRebels I imagine all the exciting action happening adjacent to Leia while Luke is stuck sweeping out his garage
— Peter Di Cicco (@PeterDiCicco) March 3, 2015
Sarah Michelle Gellar is joining the cast…
I imagine @RealFPJr getting dropped off at work one day by his wife, and Filoni going "Holy shit, it's Buffy! We gotta put her on the show".
— Jordan Maison (@JordanMaison) March 3, 2015
What if Kanan drunkenly married some random lady once and that's who @SarahMGellar is playing? What's the GFFA equivalent of Vegas?
— Eleven-ThirtyEight (@eleventhirtyate) March 3, 2015
So the most popular guesses for @SarahMGellar's #StarWarsRebels character are Breha and Leia Organa pic.twitter.com/QSLPH3mO5m

Buffy is Callista. Pass it on.

Finally read Princess Leia #1 and THAT WAS SO GREAT. Loved the capable ladies and little character touches. Artoo got the best line.
— Nancy K (@Decibelle5) March 6, 2015
Princess Leia #1 has the best use of a familiar Star Wars line ever. Very much not in your face.
— Brian (@brian_nov) March 4, 2015
What I like about Marvel's Princess Leia comic so far is it's about her transition from "Princess" in A New Hope to "Rebel" in Empire.
— Tracie Mauk ca. 2015 (@Maukingbird) March 5, 2015
Anyway, loving Princess Leia #1. She's SO much like her father, and that's gonna get her in to a ton of trouble. Pre-ESB wild Leia is rad.
— Catrina Dennis (@ohcatrina) March 4, 2015
With Crucible I was more "Argh, really!? SERIOUSLY!?" With HttJ I'm more "I'm disappointed in you." Improvement I guess?
— Brian (@LaneWinree) March 3, 2015
I want to read Dark Disciple really badly. We have more Ahsoka, now we need more Ventress! @DelReyStarWars

Star Wars life
Driving by two kids reenacting Darth Maul vs. Obi-Wan with Pool Noodles may be the best thing that's happened in a long time. #StarWars

Even after 20 years of marriage, every time my wife says, “I love you.” I have to stop myself from saying “I know.” #StarWars

This Star Wars theme-shaped macaroni has got me thinking, can I get a job as a macaroni designer?

"Hey, Harrison, just wanted to call to see how you're doing."
"Who is this?
"It's Adam Driver."
"Who?
"I play Kylo Ren."

I’ve *just now* realised that the Jason Isaacs who plays the Inquisitor is the same Isaacs who played Lucius Malfoy. I feel such an idiot and yet, it all fits.
