Happy May the 4th (or Star Wars Day)!

It's that celebrated time for us Star Wars fans, It's May the 4th. Or Star Wars Day!

It doesn't matter if you're old or new fans, this is the day to celebrate all things Star Wars. Whether it's a love of your favorite characters, books, movies, shows, etc. it's all in how you enjoy what you love. So, how are you celebrating the day?

I was thinking maybe this evening I'll watch one of the movies or a few episodes from one of the animated shows. I was also thinking of buy a Star Wars book. Maybe after I go to the comic book store I'll stop by the book store and see if there's a book I want to get.

Happy May the 4th (or Star Wars Day)!

Today is Star Wars Day or should I say May the 4th be with you!

It is one of my favorite geeky holidays. This is the day to celebrate all things Star Wars whether it's a love of your favorite characters or books or movies or shows, etc. it's all in how you enjoy what you love. So, how are you celebrating the day?

I couldn't think of a better day to start watching some of the shows I haven't watched yet: Andor, The Bad Batch and The Mandalorian season 3. I do know at some point today that I'll be wearing my favorite Princess Leia t-shirt when I watch some of these shows. I also might even buy a new Star Wars book, the last one I bought was The Old Republic: Fatal Alliance. Maybe tonight I'll watch one of the movies, do I go with one from the classic (or original) trilogy, prequel trilogy or the Disney trilogy? I'll probably just end up watching one from the original trilogy.

However you celebrate today, Happy Star Wars day and May the 4th be with you!

Happy May the 4th (or Star Wars Day)!

It's Star Wars Day!

(Star Wars)

One of my favorite geek holidays, so Star Wars fans how are you celebrating today? I was thinking of either watching one or two of my favorite movies or one that I haven't seen in a while (which surprisingly is all of them). Maybe I'll even watch a few episodes from a show or two, from The Clone Wars to The Book of Boba Fett, there are a lot of shows to choose from. I feel like I haven't watched anything Star Wars in such a long time and I can't think of a more perfect day to rekindle my love for Star Wars.

(Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back)

No matter how you plan to celebrate the day, I want to wish everyone a Happy Star Wars Day! May the Force (or Fourth) Be With You.

Happy May the 4th (or Star Wars Day)!

Alright my fellow Star Wars geeks, how are you celebrating the day? Having a movie or TV series (animated or live-action) marathon with plenty of snacks? Reading or buying a Star Wars book? Finding something new to add to your collection or starting one?

However you plan on celebrating this glorious holiday, I hope you have a really good Star Wars day and May the Fourth Be With You.

Happy May the 4th (or Star Wars Day)!

It's Star Wars Day!

How have you been celebrating the day? Are you wearing one of your favorite shirts watching one or more of the movies? Maybe you're only going to watch the series finale of The Clone Wars animated series? Maybe you're reading one of your favorite stories or finding a new one? What I love about Star Wars Day is that you get to enjoy the day however you want.

Not to add any negativity to the day but I think Disney should take a break from making more Star Wars movies and shows, at least for a little while. One of things I felt George Lucas did really well was not putting out a lot of Star Wars movies and TV shows. He didn't over-saturate the market by constantly releasing new movies and shows. I feel like the executives at Disney forgot the simple rule of quality over quantity because they keep announcing new projects.

The Disney sequel trilogy was so divisive among fans that I would think Disney would take a step back and see where the company went wrong with this last group of movies. I know I found some aspects of the movies to be disappointing especially the lack of focus and how rushed the story felt. For instance, I really wish Finn had been utilized better because the character had so much potential but it was wasted.

Anyway, Happy Star Wars Day and May the 4th Be With You!

Happy Star Wars Day!


Fans this is truly our day to celebrate all things Star Wars from our love of the movies to the characters. I remember when non-fans would think of us celebrating May the 4th as a joke and would think of us as silly. But now it some how became an amazingly "cool thing" to where now nearly everyone is celebrating it.

With that said, I could think of no better day for me to finally watch Star Wars: The Force Awakens. I don't know why I've put off watching it until now but I did. So, I will be watching it tonight.

Happy Star Wars day and May the 4th be with you!

Star Wars: The Force Awakens

Description:

Thirty years after the defeat of the Galactic Empire, the galaxy faces a new threat from the evil Kylo Ren and the First Order. When a defector named Finn crash-lands on a desert planet, he meets Rey, a tough scavenger whose droid contains a top-secret map. Together, the young duo joins forces with Han Solo to make sure the Resistance receives the intelligence concerning the whereabouts of Luke Skywalker, the last of the Jedi Knights.

Happy May 4th!!!



Or should I say May the 4th be with you! This has been an interesting morning. I woke up to find I was sent a Darth Vader book via e-reader (thanks mom) and I found it funny seeing R2-D2 making the rounds on numerous morning news shows. I think it's really cool that the mainstream has adopted one of our geek days.

This whole weekend has pretty much been a geek weekend with yesterday being Free Comic Book Day. So, I hope everyone is enjoying the weekend.
