\"IMG_0190\"<\/a>By this time next week, there will be a new Star Wars movie living in our memories. That’s crazy. <\/p>\n

We’re just days away…hours, really…minutes, technically…from returning to the Star Wars universe. Since we all know how the internet works, here’s my prediction for fan reaction.<\/p>\n

Phase 1: <\/strong>Brag about seeing it. “Just got back from Star Wars! IT WAS INSANE! Here are pictures of me from Star Wars…which is where I just was.” <\/p>\n

Phase 2:<\/strong> Love. “This is the greatest thing human beings can accomplish! To see this movie is to gaze upon the face of God and hear her whisper, ‘Yes.'” <\/p>\n

Phase 3:<\/strong> Hate. “It wasn’t that great. Watch my 3-hour YouTube video in which I describe every plot hole in the movie as still images appear on the screen.”<\/p>\n

Phase 4: <\/strong>Troll. “This is a complete bag of vomit. The effects look terrible. I’m more excited for Captain America: Civil War<\/em>. That movie is going to be way better than Star Wars.”
\n
\nPhase 5:<\/strong> Realizing no one cares what you say. “Hey! Did you hear me?! Attention all humans, I have thoughts on Star Wars! Please like, comment and subscribe! Hello?”<\/p>\n

Phase 6:<\/strong> Looking to the future. “I bet the next one will suck.” <\/p>\n

Phase 7: <\/strong>Politicize it. “THiS movie reAlly prooves that liberals\/conservatives is waging WAR against this county. SIgn this peTIitshon to stop things.” <\/p>\n

Phase 8:<\/strong> Compare it to soup. “If this movie were a soup, it would be….”<\/p>\n

Phase 9:<\/strong> Explain it to Grandma. “No, Grandma. It’s not like E.T.<\/em>.” <\/p>\n

Phase 10:<\/strong> Acceptance. “The movie was good.”<\/p>\n

So what’s in today’s Lego Calendar? Glad you asked!<\/p>\n

It’s the Millennium Falcon!!!!!!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Everyone go home. This is the best thing in the calendar, without question. No need to even open the other doors. <\/p>\n

\"IMG_0204\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Look at this! Look at it!<\/p>\n

The Falcon is the iconic Star Wars vehicle. It’s practically a character, itself. <\/p>\n

I’ve always wanted a Millennium Falcon. And now I have one. This is my first Millennium Falcon. <\/p>\n

As a kid, my parents were generous enough to give me an X-Wing. And that was great, don’t get me wrong, but all kids knew the best ship was the Falcon. It was a giant plastic plate that captivated imaginations and summoned curiosity the same way laser pointers attract kittens. <\/p>\n

Long have I dreamed of owning one. And now it’s here. It’s mine. <\/p>\n

\"IMG_0206\"<\/a><\/p>\n

However, Stormtroopers hate the Falcon. It’s the one that always gets away. And IG-88 is no fan of it either, since he was sent on a mission to capture the ship. <\/p>\n

Seeing it now, these two were overcome with emotions of regret and failure, and they lashed out, while Stickles worshiped it. <\/p>\n

\"IMG_0208\"<\/a><\/p>\n

“You won’t get away this time!” yelled A.J..<\/p>\n

“Kill…Kill…Kill,” said IG-88. <\/p>\n

“Oh great robotic pizza, thank ye for the gifts you offer and for reigniting the sun every morning. Praise onto you, mechancical disc,” chanted Stickles.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Frisco asked if anyone wanted to go for a ride to the store, and maybe they can take this new short cut that just so happens to pass by Theresa’s house.<\/p>\n
