Tomorrow (Sept. 4), is "Force Friday": Also known as the day Hasbro and Disney will reveal a new line of "Star Wars" toys, inspired by the new movie, "Star Wars: The Force Awakens," set to be released on Dec. 18. The toys will be available at the Toys 'R' Us in Times Square at 12:01 a.m. EDT (0401 GMT), but leading up to the big reveal, the store has an entire day of "Star Wars" activies planned. reporter Calla Cofield went into the field to capture the action. Some amazing Star Wars LEGO sculptures welcomed visitors upon arrival: Where are those droids we're looking for? Maybe this guy can find them? From Calla: "Star Wars and sci-fi artist Jeff Carlisle teaching the kids how to use simple shapes to make Star Wars characters. They did Yoda, TIE Fighters, the Millennium Falcon, Vader and R2D2."In session, this Star Wars class is. Younglings are learning to use the Force. From Calla: "Steve Sansweet curated a 'Star Wars' vintage toy display that's spread throughout the store.
It features this hysterical line of action figures where all the guys are shaped like He-Man and Leia is cross eyed. Read the paragraph that goes with it." We don't remember Mark Hamill being this bulked up for the movies.And our shoulders are HUGE." This is the van we're looking for! Steve Sansweet was on hand to sign copies of his new book, "Star Wars: The Ultimate Collectors Guide." Sansweet is president and CEO of the non-profit Rancho Obi-Wan, which is based around his massive "Star Wars" toy collection (over 300,000 pieces!). Sansweet says he's most excited about the technology that will appear in the new generation of "Star Wars" toys. He referenced, as an example, the incredible little BB-8 robot, designed by the Sphero toy company. "I think this is going to be a breakthrough kind of merchandising event and breakthrough for the new movies. We're really going to see the technology being integral to what the toy does," Sansweet said. In the vintage toy displays that Sansweet curated, there are some awesome examples of bygone technology in "Star Wars" toys.
For example, a "Movie Cassette Color Show" toy from the 1970's let the user run short movies through a sort of plastic film-based movie camera. But Sansweet said the film would get scratched with every viewing. Some of the items in Sansweet's collection are extremely rare and valuable, but he emphasized that a collector shouldn't get into the game hoping the items will eventually become valuable. He says he plays with all the toys he buys, and will buy a second one if he thinks he'd like to keep one in good condition. "You need to find what you love," he said.

Sunday’s Future Filmmakers panel closes out the three day-long Star Wars Celebration Europe with big announcements for Episode 8 and the Han Solo spinoff. While the panel won’t be live-streamed like the Rogue One panel was on Friday, ScreenCrush’s Erin Whitney is in London at Celebration covering the panel. We’ll be live-blogging and tweeting everything as it happens live, so keep coming back here for the latest updates.
Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy will be joined by Story Group Development lead Kiri Hart, Episode 8 director Rian Johnson, and directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller, who are helming the upcoming Han Solo Movie. News and Updates From the Future Filmmakers Panel: Seated for the closing Future Filmmakers panel at #SWCE! Stay tuned for all the Episode 8 and Han Solo news! /j669vnnWIc— ScreenCrush (@screencrushnews) July 17, 2016 -The panel gets underway with Lucasfilm’s Pablo Hidalgo. Next Kathleen Kennedy and Kiri Hart take the stage, talking about the first Rogue One trailer, who discuss the notion of “standalone films,” and realizing from the response online that they would have to explain to people how those movies are different from the primary “Saga” films. ......./7LlSHBGpQN— Rian Johnson (@rianjohnson) July 17, 2016 Kathleen Kennedy says Rian Johnson was "way at the top of the list right away" to direct Episode 8. #/jY1hTfLmzK— ScreenCrush (@screencrushnews) July 17, 2016
Next, Rian Johnson takes the stage to a standing ovation. Kathleen Kennedy says he “moves the camera as well as Steven Spielberg.” He talks about working with the Lucasfilm Story Group and watching the dailies for Episode VII. He spent six weeks with the Story Group while The Force Awakens was still in production. Johnson’s ideas for Episode VIII came from reading the script and watching the dailies; not from the hype that followed. His inspirations for the film: 3 OUTLAW SAMURAIBRIDGE ON THE RIVER KWAI12 O’CLOCK HIGHLETTER NEVER SENTGUNGA DINSAHARA- movies that inspired EPISODE VIII #SWCE— devin faraci (@devincf) July 17, 2016 Next Johnson dropped a pretty significant tidbit: “This movie is going to start right where the last one left off.” Johnson continued talking about his personal memories of Star Wars, and seeing the very first movie with his father. Johnson’s memory of Star War was seeing it with his dad who told him, “We’re going to see the most amazing thing youve ever seen.” #SWCE— ScreenCrush (@screencrushnews) July 17, 2016
Johnson, on what it’s like directing Mark Hamill: “You realize your responsibility is to ultimately tell a story that feels alive right now.” Nostalgia is great, he added, but you have to get past that. “The second film is where we start zooming in on the characters, getting to the heart of them.” /FfVFYEmr9M— ScreenCrush (@screencrushnews) July 17, 2016 "/29ttIhMveL— ScreenCrush (@screencrushnews) July 17, 2016 It's Dave Filoni on the set of Episode 8! #/MX7rh1WAX9— ScreenCrush (@screencrushnews) July 17, 2016 /mNNveqjNJq— ScreenCrush (@screencrushnews) July 17, 2016 A fun tidbit: The production code name for Star Wars: Episode VIII was “Space Bear.” For now that’s as close as we get to the unveiling of an official subtitle for the movie. Up next: The directors of the Han Solo spinoff movie: Phil Lord and Chris Miller! /ho2eEVgnSn— ScreenCrush (@screencrushnews) July 17, 2016 They’ve just moved to London and are still working on the script for the movie, along with Force Awakens and Empire Strikes Back screenwriter Lawrence Kasdan and his son Jon Kasdan.
Why Miller & Lord got excited about making the Han Solo movie: “he’s a grouchy, cynical guy with the biggest heart in the galaxy.” #SWCE— ScreenCrush (@screencrushnews) July 17, 2016 Miller and Lord note that they have worked with Han Solo before, in The LEGO Movie. They also joked that since Batman and Han Solo met in The LEGO Movie, that is now officially part of Star Wars canon. This clip was then shown on the panel: Keep your eyes peeled for director cameos in Rogue One. Rian Johnson plays a character on the Death Star. And Lord and Miller were going to make a cameo but didn’t get to at the last minute. They did get a picture in their costumes though. /5lT3dG0Gy0— ScreenCrush (@screencrushnews) July 17, 2016 Rian Johnson is cameoing as a Death Star gunner in ROGUE ONE. /qpI30vyxXb— devin faraci (@devincf) July 17, 2016 Over 3000 actors auditioned for the role of the young Han Solo. Ironically, the guy who got the job was the very first person who auditioned: Alden Ehrenreich, who came out on stage to join the panel.
/mB6PHoTI6y— ScreenCrush (@screencrushnews) July 17, 2016 /wsR8T6pYXs— IMDb (@IMDb) July 17, 2016 Ehrenreich auditioned for six months for the role of Han Solo, including scenes with Chewbacca and on the Millennium Falcon. What was the experience of being on the Millennium Falcon like? When people come up to Ehrenreich and congratulate him on Han Solo he just points and silently smiles. Says only his mom knows. #SWCE— ScreenCrush (@screencrushnews) July 17, 2016 The Han Solo solo (heh) film goes into production early next year, like January or February. Next, a surprise: An appearance by Finn himself, John Boyega, who takes the stage with the rest of the crew. He describes Episode VIII as “an indie movie in a studio franchise.” /utURL5MF9w— ScreenCrush (@screencrushnews) July 17, 2016 And, yes, Finn will wake up from the coma he was in at the end of The Force Awakens. (First the Force awakens, then Finn.) Boyega also marveled at Ehrenreich getting the job playing the next Han Solo.
