May The Fourth Be With You
It’s May 4th, Star Wars Day 2020, and “Star Wars: The Ride Of Skywalker” has been released early today on Disney Plus.
Quite frankly, I had found the film acceptable. Not incredible but acceptable, so I will probably buy the blu-ray for my collection on Prime Day or Black Friday, which may be on the same day if the current events continue. Hopefully, they won’t for long.
In regard to special Star Wars Day events today, American retailers Areyougame.com, Barnes and Noble, Calenders.com, and Entertainment Earth are offering discounts on Star Wars merchandise, some offering pre-orders for memorabilia. And some discounted items can be found at Amazon.ca and Indigo Books & Music. But generally, most of the major retailers are currently only shipping essential goods so your best bet for finding deals is at the aforementioned sites or the Official Star Wars site.

May The 4th Be With You
It’s Star Wars Day at Amazon Canada, Amazon International, Barnes & Noble and Indigo/Chapters. And I can’t wait until the release of “Solo” later this month.
I’m mostly a fan of the original, unadulterated films and their soundtracks, although I did like the very recent films, namely The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi and Rogue One.

For Star Wars Fans / Acoustic David Bowie Tribute
I know this isn’t about music. But aren’t you surprised that they just didn’t wait a month and release the film on Star Wars Day ? It would have been a great opportunity but I guess Disney had their reasons.
Anyhow, i’m going to wait for the blu-ray
Yes, I was tempted to buy it from iTunes yesterday. But i’ve decided to wait. I prefer the resolution of blu-ray over downloads and have not really started to go full force into collecting the latter.
Basically I download some of the films I get in the blu-ray packages but I might start downloading films once I set up a larger hard drive on my router. That would probably be more convenient because i’m running out of shelf space and I don’t think i’ll bother buying more shelved, unless perhaps if I decide to move.
