"Star Wars is for everyone" - Ashley Eckstein
*everyone in the crowd cheers and claps*

It's so weird that 5 years ago that would've not elicited any reaction from me but now it makes me happy that no one there boo'd her or something.

Also, it seems only cool fans go to Celebration from what I've seen. Nice to not be so disappointed in the fandom for once.

Maybe for Episode 10

Those pictures reminded me of how much Joonas was unable to answer any question and how much anxiety it was giving me. I only had 30 minutes of break and each time Joonas spoke he would go on for forever. THIS MAN MADE ME LATE

Anyone here at the actual celebration?

When you have time, even if it's a few days to a week or so, I'd love to see your photos if your willing to share, nice to see stuff from fans perspective on the floor as well as professionally shot by the Star Wars team

I'll post what I wind up with after I get home and sort through them. Prepare to be disappointed.

More like an after hours Celebration event, but cool nonetheless.

We getting a trailer?
Dunno. On one side, they showed a behind-the-scenes reel at the investor meeting at Disney's lot a few days ago. On the other hand, it comes out the same month as Jedi Order and a month earlier than TROS, so they might have an actual trailer.

That would be really rad. Looking forward to the first legit live action SW series.

Does anyone know why they don't do these Celebrations on Star Wars Day (may the 4th) weekend, when it lands on a weekend that is, it's only a matter of a few weeks away, cheesy yes I know but Star Wars fans who attend probably would like that, if there is anyone who buys into that cheesiness is us fans.

This year would have been thurs may 2, fri 3rd, sat may the 4th be with you, sunday return of the 5th (brother) or revenge of the Fifth and monday erm revenge of the Sixth or Return of the Sixth.

Something fun & silly

Probably all to do with logistics and available dates of the venue I guess.

This time of year is mostly warmer, right before the summer premiere/movie season, after awards season, and doesn't interfere with the recently estsblished merchandise holidays (may 4th, force friday, etc.). Also aids in the optimal 7 month (games) and 8 month (movies) hype periods.

Up in the nosebleeds for the Mandalorian but at least the speaker array isn't in the way this time. Can't wait to see this.

Apparently it's confirmed that one of The Clone Wars arcs will be The Bad Batch and another not animated yet, will be really interesting to see what they pick along with that and Siege of Mandalore.

It'd be really nice if we got the one where Asoka discovers a ancient Sith temple and Sidious chases her down.
Is there a link for the Mandalorian panel stream yet?
Not yet. Should be up on the Star Wars youtube in about 5-10 minutes.

Episode 9 will probably be decent

Jedi Fallen Order is made by Respawn, so I'm not too concerned right now

But this is the thing I'm probably the most curious about this weekend

Of course, it's basically a blizzard in Chicago today.

How long is the panel supposed to be? There's 2.5 hours between the start of Mandalorian and the Alan Tudyk panel.

They really need to make another Medal of Honor with Giacchino back at the music helm.

The R1 soundtrack, while not the best, made me miss that side of him.
