**Official** Star Wars at DHS, Galactic Spectacular Dessert Party/Galactic Nights/Launch Bay/JT

[lovethattink]

We started watching them this past weekend. We knocked out episode 1 because I let my son pick where to start and he hadn't seen the whole thing. I don't think any of us watched the entire movie - just wandered in and out. DD11 left in disgust when Jar Jar showed. I think I'll try machete order for the rest of the movies.

I'm going to try to stay unspoiled for the movie. We have guests coming this week, so I might not get the chance to see it until after Christmas.

I saw some crazy article about what if Jar Jar was working with the emperor. And last week when we watched Episode 1, we watched it with that in mind and Jar Jar ' s clumsiness takes on a whole new entertaining light.

My husband and I read that article, too. It suggested he was a master in the Way of the Drunken Fist, or something similar. My husband thought the article made seeing Jar Jar again on the screen more interesting. I still wanted to mute him every time he spoke.

Yes, that would be cool.
I just came back from Five Below and they have a HUGE selection of Star Wars stuff, mostly for kids, they also have some cute ornaments and backpacks, everything $5 and under, hence the name
Also I have stayed away from any additional spoilers ever since the Japan trailer but now things have started popping up on fb, pictures and such, also someone sent me a link to the first 2 minutes of the movie...no, thank you. So staying away from fb for a week

It is getting harder to avoid! It is, quite literally, everywhere. I have noticed a lot more teaser trailer ads running on tv, too. We aren't seeing the movie until Monday, so we'll likely be avoiding Internet, news, the world for a week. I'm not a social media addict, so it's not a big deal. I'm still worried about spoilers though. They seem to somehow get through no matter what.

5 days and 12 hours counting for me to see SW EPVII : TFA...
Is anyone going through the whole 6 films beforehand, and in which order are you planning on watching them?

We probably will. Probably just 1-6 for us. ODS l.o.v.e.s. Qui Gon, so 1 is his favorite. That's an interesting bit about JarJar and the Emporer. I'll have to keep that in mind. Maybe it will make him...well, nevermind, he can't possibly be less stupid and annoying.

Can we keep this thread spoiler free at least for a bit? I've got company coming next week that are not Star Wars fans and I won't be able to see the movie till after Christmas. But I would still like to check this thread for any new Park news as I'm planning our January trip. I know I won't be able to avoid spoilers all together for that long but I'm hoping to stay away from many of them as possible.

Time to take an oath everyone...repeat after me (like in JTA)

After watching the movie
(repeat)
We will all feel the Force
(repeat)
But we will not divulge
(repeat)
and be left in remorse
(repeat)
It will be pretty hard
(repeat)
keeping our lips sealed
(repeat)
we will all bite our tongue
(repeat)
before risking reveal
(repeat)

Anyone else plan on going social media dark next week?

I'm going to post a few things on Facebook but other than posting, I'm not looking at a thing. I'm even going to be wary about regular sites, I remember when yahoo's main page got hacked to spoil Harry potter character deaths for the last book. And the Brits get to legitimately see it a few days before us.

I don't have an FB account or even look at it. I rarely look at Twitter. Heck, I don't even like Instant Messenger at work. Except for this site, I am already kind of socially in the dark

I am in agreement with that. Luckily, we will be in Germany, so I probably wouldn't understand any spoilers I hear there anyway. But I will probably check this thread. We won't get to see it until xmas either.

I think that should be the extent....

Okay, guys. After following yulilin's threads for 4 years, attending one day of SWW in '14, marathon watching all 6 Episodes in the course of a week, and sitting and watching more JTA sessions than a normal person ever should, I scored 44 on this SW character quiz:

Pretty sure everyone else will get all 63!! I'm happy with 44 !

60/63 shame on me
44 is not bad
My mom calls me today, here's the conversarion:
Mom: Hi does Stephanie have a Star Wars beanie
Me: hmm actually she doesn't. But she doesn't like the ones with the little poofy thing on the end
Mom: Ok, there's a brown one and a black one
Me: I think she would like the black one better...does it have white on it
Mom: Yes! it's the Star Wars police guys on it

 

[soniam]

I am pretty embarrassed by my score 54/63. However, I never can remember the empireal and rebel "red shirts" names, basically the soldiers, generals, and such that get killed. I can't waste brain power on most of them, when I know they are just going to be killed Also, some of the critters I didn't even know they had names.

Our friend Aileen

I don't have an FB account or even look at it. I rarely look at Twitter. Heck, I don't even like Instant Messenger at work. Except for this site, I am already kind of socially in the dark

I only recently made a FB account - I have 8 whole friends I am also not going to check it from when the movie is released in Europe until after we've seen it (on the 21st).

Can someone remind me of the machete order is that the one that goes something like 4, 5, 1, 2, 3, 6?

we got 62 out of 63 - we missed the R4-D4 one. "We" actually means DD - I knew a lot of them but would have been in the 44 range without her! She always wants more Star Wars reference books for "research" ......can you say... Star Wars obsessed ?!

 

[Isildur's Bane]

dodgy on the rex/cody clone but guessed right. rest were slam dunks 63/63 guess I have a mind like a lint trap lol

 

[soniam]

There was one pic of a Fett that was really poorly lighted. I could barely see the color of his outfit. I took a guess and got it right, but I thought it was a bit sneaky.

Decided to drop by our local AMC and print our reserved tickets in advance of next week. This eliminates any hassles/delays/problems at the box office or kiosks next Thursday. We have reserved seating for the 10:45pm show on 12/17. Now all we have to do is wait 6 more days!

This is a great idea! I'll probably stop by the mall this weekend and do the same.


I'm also going dark on social media starting Thursday. I have friends who live in Britain. I hate them a little right now. LOL.

Delurking to say that I just booked dessert party for DH and me on January 11. It's my post-marathon reward and I'm hoping that thinking about it will help me complete the Dopey Challenge because I gotta say that I'm feeling a bit over my head on that one.

And movie next Thursday night!!!!

Would you like to be added to the Dessert Party Roll Call?

I got a 59. I flipped a couple of characters from the animated series. I knew all the randoms from the original trilogy, which didn't surprise me. I can't remember 75% of what I learned in law school, but I know William Hootkins played Porkins.
