Holonet Blast #47

Remember the past two weeks, when there was just SO MUCH STAR WARS NEWS that it  was hard to keep up with?

Yeah, well, it’s feast or famine with Star Wars, and this week, we went a little hungry.

But, there’s always something happening in the galaxy far, far away, and the biggest piece of news we got from Lucasfilm this week was the official trailer and announcement of the Star Wars: The Last Jedi Blu-ray, including 14(!) deleted scenes. No word on whether Chewie eats the porg.

Meanwhile, there was Star Wars news in our own galaxy as well, with the announcement that Mark Hamill, Oscar Isaac, and Kelly Marie Tran will be presenting at the 2018 Academy Awards. Hamill had an even bigger week when it was revealed that he will receive his own star (wars) on the Hollywood Walk of Fame next month.

And finally, we got a fresh look at the new Star Wars resort planned for the Walt Disney World Resort, and the odds of TS writers shelling out a small fortune to go there are high. They’re very high.

That’s it – at least until the next round of books/tv shows/movies is announced and SW Twitter loses its collective mind again. Until that time, may the Force be with you.
