May the Fourth be with you!
Today is STAR WARS day! I hope you all did something STAR WARS related! For me, I re-watched The Force Awakens, which I hadn't seen since it was on the theatre. Also, to celebrate I am going to be reviewing Episode V!

My guarantee: On ALL of my reviews there are NO spoilers unless it says so.

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far, away...
Though the Empire has had major set backs, Darth Vader is determined to find Luke Skywalker.

But Darth Vader has a few secrets up his sleeves.

I posted something on Instagram.
ReplyDeleteNice button, Fawnabelle.
What is your username on Instagram? Then I can go check it out!
DeleteThat is one of my favorite parts of Episode VII. :D
I just always think: The best film in the original trilogy...one of the greatest sequels ever made...and the movie Star Wars fans love the most...just so happens to be the one where George Lucas was involved the LEAST. ;) ;)
ReplyDeleteBut, seriously, it's a good one. :)
Wow, so true! I hadn't thought of it like that, but it's a fact. George Lucas steps back and everyone loves the movie that he basicly said, "Go for it." ;)
DeleteDefinitely! It is one of the best!
Star Wars is the best! I'm hoping the Han solo movie is good! Are you going to go see it in the theaters? -Jose
ReplyDeleteAgreed! Star Wars is awesome! I don't think I will because only Harrison Ford is Han Solo to me, but if I hear it is good I might get it on DVD. What about you?
DeleteOur Family will probably borrow it from the library. I agree. Harrison Ford is the only Han Solo. I'm hoping the movie will be better than i think it's going to be. I'm so excited for the next movie after the last Jedi. I want to find out who Rey's Family is. Are you guessing who they are?- Jose
DeleteYes, I am hoping that it will be good though. The actor for Lando looks like he will do a great job! And I really am excited for Episode IX! How are they going to end it all!? I really have no clue who Rey's family is. Do you have any ideas?
DeleteLuke? Maybe Han Solo? I Have no idea.-Jose
DeleteBoth good guesses! We'll just have to see, I guess. But I can't wait!
DeleteExcellent review, MC!! I do like The Empire Strikes Back a lot :).
ReplyDeleteThanks, Catherine!! You can't go wrong with the original trilogy. :D
DeleteYAY for Star Wars! I really love the fandom, though I'm more a Sherlock Holmes girl, so that's the books and shows where I really fall in love, but still - Star Wars celebrating going on here!
ReplyDeleteYes! Star Wars is great! Oh yeah, I love mysteries and Sherlock Holmes is one of the best! I really want to see the BBC show, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.
