I'm not certain but isn't Celebration not canceled yet because of an insurance thing? They probably can't cancel yet because of whatever insurance policy they have on the convention center.
Alex's yearly video is up. One thing that caught my eye is that Palpatine was not behind the formation of the clone army. How long has this been known?
I disagree, if you're someone who is travelling a distance to visit Celebration, they're leaving it really rather late.
As I say, if the Olympics can announce its delay, why is Celebration still holding on and risking people's travel plans?
Vader Immortal is coming to PSVR as well which is cool, more people need to try that game. The lightsaber dojo is really fun especially by the third chapter when they start chucking Stormtroopers into the mix as well and give you a load of legacy lightsabers to play around with.

The Olympics were supposed to be in July and Celebration is late August. 4 months is plenty of time to give people IMO but there is no right answer for how to handle this stuff.
And the Olympics' rescheduling was over a month ago. March 24th to be precise.
The timescale would be on par for them to cancel Celebration now.
If Rian's film isn't happening Lucasfilm need to freaking say it already, staying silent and hoping people somehow forget is not a good look
I just wanted to browse what was available but I can't lol. Some people on twitter I follow waited 5 hours in the queue to buy stuff.
I think there are insurance reasons for this. You see it with concerts and festivals too.
I managed to order the Elite Series die cast Probe Droid. In the UK though!
Bigger insurance reasons than the 2020 Olympics?
Come on guys, I'm a fan who hates the typical Era approach to Star Wars myself. I'd like to think my positions on Star Wars are known enough by now that I'm not some mindless hater. But is it really hard to say that Lucasfilm are fucking up their Covid response when it comes to celebration?
Holy crap I just saw these. Damn, I want either the Boba Fett or the Tie Pilot one (or both XD).
Course they have a lego D-O, ugh all of these sets that I want now lol. Will definitely keep them in mind, but I might just only get at least the Boba Fett helmet.

I have tickets and I disagree with you. I think as long as they make a decision in the next 6 weeks they are fine.
It's more complicated than that and I'd imagine the organizer Reedpop also has a say in it. They're probably working with the convention center as well.

I don't want to pry, but how far are you travelling to go? If I was travelling trans-atlantic to go, I'd want alerts and refunds.
More complicated than the biggest pandemic in living memory? I'm sorry, but if an organisation infamous for red tape as the IOC can delay, I don't see why it's so hard for Celebration.
They're probably looking for alternatives and want to have firm plans before saying anything.
At this point nothing is probably happening in August and if people feel they need to start cancelling travel plans then they should do so.
Then they need to stop being so coy. As I keep saying, if the Olympics can do it, Celebration can do it.
A fair point, I dont have major travel plans as I live within driving distances. However, I had to cancel travel plans that were weeks away not months away when Covid started. I think you are creating unneeded stress by worrying about it this far out. If they decide in a month, that will still give you three months to cancel your travel plans.
I don't feel it's unneeded stress. I used to travel transatlantic all the time, so I know exactly how difficult the refund process for flights is.
I also keep saying, and nobody has been able to rebut this, why it's prudent for the Olympics to delay, for all kinds of other live events to also delay too, yet Celebration refusing to delay is acceptable..
The problems is these seeds aren't sown through TFA and TLJ.
I still think it works, mainly because of how Luke's nephew/Han and Leia's son was targeted from a young age.
Stupid mask hiding that beard. :(
His saber, it calls to me.
Yeah, you can't just drop a plot twist like that on Fortnite. Either don't have Snoke in the trilogy at all and just have Palpatine show up at the end of The Force Awakens or have Palpatine's message sent out at the end of The Last Jedi right after Ben's control of the First Order appears tenuous at best.
Either of those would had worked out fine. Instead we got what happened with TROS.
Cal needs to show up if they do a Disney+ show around the time that he's active.
I think he's referencing the time he said he wouldn't do a Star Wars movie.
