“Star Wars Force Friday II” Announced, Release Day Of “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” Toys And Merchandise

STAR WARS FORCE FRIDAY II FLIES INTO STORES AROUND THE GLOBE ON SEPTEMBER 1, 2017

 Countdown begins for world-wide release of “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” products

 New product packaging revealed today features trio of heroes: Poe, Rey and Finn

 width=

Disney and Lucasfilm today announced Star Wars Force Friday II, a global fan event celebrating the launch of new products inspired by the highly anticipated “Star Wars: The Last Jedi.” Toys, collectibles, books, apparel and more will go on sale beginning at 12:01 a.m. on September 1, 2017, with stores around the world opening for a weekend-long celebration of all things Star Wars.  

“The first Star Wars Force Friday event was truly unique, uniting fans across five continents in an unprecedented global live unboxing event ahead of thousands of midnight openings at retail,” says Jimmy Pitaro, Chairman, Disney Consumer Products and Interactive Media. “We’re excited to confirm that Star Wars Force Friday is back for ‘The Last Jedi’. Plans for this year’s world-wide event are top secret but expect something befitting the excitement around the next episode of the Star Wars saga.” 

Star Wars fans around the globe embraced Force Friday in 2015, with hundreds of thousands turning up to stores at midnight to be the first to get their hands on merchandise from “Star Wars: The Force Awakens.” Toys from the new line were revealed via a global live-stream unboxing event that unfolded over 18 hours, 15 different cities and 12 countries, attracting millions of views on YouTube. Fans took to social media to share their experiences with nearly 3 billion Twitter impressions about the events, using #ForceFriday.  

Jill Wilfert, Vice President of global licensing and entertainment from The LEGO Group comments, “It was so much fun to be a part of Star Wars Force Friday, and we can’t wait for fans to join this year’s celebration as we reveal new ‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’ products during Force Friday II – a global event that will connect fans and families, and allow them to build, create and share their experiences with others.” 

Details of how fans can participate will be revealed closer to the event but the world-wide launch will tap new technology and Star Wars mythology to create a unique experience for fans. Just like 2015, products for “The Last Jedi” will be kept under wraps until Force Friday II to preserve surprises for fans. As well as introducing new characters from the movie in toy form, the line will build on the success of products like Sphero’s BB-8, introducing more innovative technology to bring the characters and stories from the film to life in unique ways. 

“Toys play a unique role in the Star Wars universe, and we’re proud to have been part of that incredible legacy for the past forty years. The new line for ‘The Last Jedi’ is our most innovative yet, and we’re excited to unveil it on Force Friday II,” said Samantha Lomow, Senior Vice President at Hasbro. 

“Star Wars: The Force Awakens” is the highest grossing movie of all time domestically and that success was mirrored at retail. NPD reported that Star Wars was the number one toy property in the U.S. for 2016 and 2015, and that during the week of Force Friday, $1 for every $11 spent on toys was on a Star Wars item. Additionally, the popularity of the movie propelled Star Wars onto the top ten toy list for both boys and girls for the first time ever in 2015. 

Also being revealed today is a first look at packaging for “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” products which feature leading heroes: Poe Dameron, Rey and Finn. The trio will be featured on Star Wars packaging beginning September 1, 2017. 

Fans can stay tuned to StarWars.com for more details on Force Friday II events, and can follow the conversation on social using #ForceFridayII.

Miles Morales Official Confirmed To Be The “Spider-Man” In Sony’s Theatrical Animated Movie

It turns out that the rumors were true, Miles Morales will be making the leap to the big screen in Sony’s 2018 animated Spider-Man movie. This was confirmed by Sony during a presentation in LA showing Sony’s 2017 film slate.

I for one am really looking forward to seeing Miles Morales make his bog screen debut. We have seen Peter Parker’s origin story so many time in live action and animated form, it’s time for something new. And Miles is a great Spider-Man. And you have to love that suit!

Is Pierce Brosnan Going To Play Cable In Deadpool?

 width=

Please no. No one is sure what is going on with this picture showing Pierce Brosnan sitting between Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds. Whatever it is, it can’t be good.

 width=

Ryan Reynolds posted this image the other day with the caption, Wolvie. Bond. Wade. I’m really hoping these guys just met up for happy hour because no way would Pierce Brosnan make a good Cable.

NO!

 width=

My personal opinion is he hijacked the James Bond series for years giving us the absolute worst version of James Bond ever. The guy is a good looking guy but he can not act to save his life. I would not want to see him play a janitor in Deadpool 2. Got to give credit to Ron D’Anna suggesting Bruce Willis to play Cable. I’d go with Ron Pearlman. Cable has to be a tough guy, down and dirty. That is not Pierce Brosnan. I mean his name is Pierce for crying out loud!

Entertainment Weekly Gives Us Our First Look At “The Defenders”

 width=

Whoever put this cover together at Entertainment Weekly should be fired. This looks horrible. Luke Cage looks great but you couldn’t put Daredevil and Iron Fist in their costumes? It’s just a horrible photoshop with ugly comic like fonts.

This is The Defenders!

 width=

I am so not looking forward to this series and this picture explains why. This is not The Defenders. I have said this before but The Defenders should be on the big screen, not Netflix. And at some point they should fight The Avengers. The Avengers would wipe the floor with this version of The Defenders. The Defenders were Doctor Strange, The Hulk, Silver Surfer and Namor. OK, Fox owns the Silver Surfer movie rights but they have everyone else, including Namor (according to some Marvel execs). Call the Netflix Marvel Heroes, The Hells Kitchen 4 or whatever you want. Not The Defenders. End of rant.

Sideshow Collectibles Corner

“Captain America Statue”

 width=

This is beautiful! The perfect Captain America! Hire this team to make Captain America’s costume for the big screen because they have never gotten it right! Can’t we get this? How hard can it be? Chain link! Big star on the chest! Normal looking red and white stripes! And one version has feathers by the ears!

 width=

Back to the statue. Right now this is just a prototype but you know that the final product will look either as good or better. Here is the description from SideShow Collectibles:

 width=

Sideshow is proud to present America’s mightiest hero in all of his patriotic glory!
Inspired by the most iconic incarnations of the stalwart champion of justice, this all new 15” statue by Sideshow depicts Cap in his trademark red, white and blue uniform, shield raised, and ready to take down evil-doers with a swift right hook!
Captain America’s costume features blue scale mail armor with a bold white star emblazoned on the chest. Each detail down to the texture has been beautifully rendered, from his contrasting red and white striped undershirt to the rich red leather of his boots and gloves.
His modified army-issue belt with its multiple pouches gives a nod toward his military service, while his helmet/mask protects his head and face as well as his identity!
 
This Sideshow exclusive version offers an alternate head sculpt inspired by the Silver Age comic books. This variant portrait features Cap’s classic stitched leather cowl with white wings and a bold “A” symbol on the forehead.

This Captain America Statue is available for preorder exclusively at SideShow Collectibles.
