Tonight, I will officially (and willingly) for the first time subject myself to a 35th Anniversary viewing of the infamous Star Wars Holiday Special. It is being presented at the Bryant Lake Bowl/Theatre here in downtown Minneapolis at 7pm and at 10pm (I’ll be at the 10pm showing). Admission to the event is an unwrapped toy donation to Toys for Tots.
Our friend James Burns from JediNews and CurtoBurns Collectors Cast has posted this great Holiday Gift Guide at StarWars.com. Check it out!
Throw this in the rumor pile for now, but DeathStar.nl has posted an interesting tidbit about the possibility of 3D versions of Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith heading to theaters (at least in the Netherlands) in December of 2014.
Help make this Christmas Season magical for kids who are less fortunate by helping us raise money and toys at our annual Winter Festival benefiting Toys for Tots.
This holiday is yours, but we all share with you the hope that this day brings us closer to freedom, and to harmony, and to peace. No matter how different we appear, we’re all the same in our struggle against the powers of evil and darkness. I hope that this day will always be a day of joy in which we can reconfirm our dedication and our courage. And more than anything else, our love for one another. This is the promise of the Tree of Life. – Princess Leia Organa
