This month, we watched a lot of movies, a bit of TV, and even discovered a meme! It was quite fascinating. Also, Millicent’s origin revealed!
if you think STAR WARS THE FORCE AWAKENS is "just a copy of the original and adds nothing to the universe," I feel very, very sad for you.

Think TFA or Rebels is “too Disney?” Don’t like Disney in your Star Wars? Guess what: Lucas designed SW to be Disney-esque from day 1. pic.twitter.com/UZAMAvw618

"The Force Awakens was the safest Star Wars movie that they could make."
They killed Han Solo. On camera. With a saber through his chest.

An incredible Poe Dameron at @WizardWorld Austin! I look dumb in the second one, but didn't want you to miss that smirk she's rocking. pic.twitter.com/VPsCb9AMp3

I was a little salty at the redundancy of female Star Wars characters, so I made my own pic.twitter.com/DdSOmmSlAr

Just realized this. STAR WARS takes place in space. But in all of the movies no one EVER experiences zero G. Can't unsee this.

I know how Poe Dameron afforded space college now. This is a real scholarship. pic.twitter.com/CvB0pUb6VR

I kinda love that Star Wars Rebels started back up several months after last season, with new haircuts, just like a non-animated show would.
— YZF (@stoogey) September 25, 2016
I think it was a bold move to have Thrawn in this Rebels episode but not have him do anything. Slow build.
— Brian (@brian_nov) September 25, 2016
Finally watched the new episode of Rebels. Seeing Thrawn felt amazingly natural. A perfect fit in this incarnation of Star Wars.

The real question is: Will they let @m_giacchino title all his Rogue One tracks using Star Wars puns. ☺️

6-year-old: If Princess Leia is a princess, where is her castle?
Me: Darth Vader blew it up.

I swear that look Rey gives Kylo when he removes his mask is like 'Wait, YOU are the person terrorizing us? YOU?"

TFA Hux has three modes:
1-Suck it, Kylo
2-I didn't overcome being a bastard son and rise to General to deal w/ this shit
3-FUCK DA REPUBLIC— Bria (@chaosbria) September 18, 2016
I think my favourite thing about Rey (so far) is that she beats Ren mentally AND physically. She learns, and then trounces him. TWICE.

Guys, don't worry, the bottom floor of the Star Killer Base is where they keep all the mattresses. Also there is nurse and an escape pod.

Fun Fact: The upcoming #StarWars #Catalyst went through MANY titles during development, but in-house we always refer to it as DEATH START
— Star Wars Books (@DelReyStarWars) September 28, 2016
Despite appearing to be an easy title "Rogue Zero" was never in the running for Catalyst. We joked about it one time at our first meeting.

Very excited about Disney potentially acquiring Twitter so the next Star Wars can replace all the stormtroopers with egg avatar people.
