“Star Wars has shaped generations of fans, and as we head into the release of Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu, we saw an opportunity to bring that excitement straight into our restaurants,” said Joel Yashinsky, Chief Marketing Officer of Burger King U.S. & Canada. “From themed packaging to bold, flavor-forward menu items, this is our way of celebrating an iconic new film with the iconic flame-grilled taste only Burger King can deliver.”
The Jr. Meals will be available beginning on April 28th, and the other items will appropriately be released on May the Fourth. Both are only available for a limited time.
Mark Hamill is one of the most recognizable stars in the World because of a movie he made almost 50 years ago. However, he doesn’t look like he did when he made that little movie called Star Wars.
So will people recognize him if he hung out by his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame? That is what Jimmy Kimmel wanted to find out. Therefore, Jimmy Kimmel Live left them for a few hours to find out.
The good news is that he saw his long-lost father. The bad news is that he is not the only one who didn’t know who he was.
Today is May the Fourth, a day we celebrate Star Wars. Something that Trekkies, including William Shatner, do not believe in.
So, Captain Kirk has a message for all the Jedi out there. He said, “REMEMBER STAR WARS FANS… WITHOUT THE FEDERATION; YOU WOULDN’T BE HERE! WE ARE YOUR FATHER! May The Fourth Be With You…Love Starfleet!”
And just like when Darth Vader told Luke Skywalker, “No, I am your father,” the Jedi are equally as horrified that they now have to send him a Father’s Day card.
Is it wrong that I wish that one day we can all live long and prosper as one? Granted, I am neither a Trekkie nor a Jedi! I am an Orkan, “Nanu, Nanu!”
Pedro Pascal is in Japan to promote The Mandalorian and Grogu at the Star Wars Celebration. While he was there, he was able to reunite Grogu, aka Baby Yoda.
However, I was not able to appreciate the double cuteness. That is because I could not look away from the actor’s legs.
He wore knee-length dressy black shorts with black leather boot sleeves that went up to his knees. It is like it is middle-aged old man chic, but it just doesn’t work.
Well, on most men. But the 50-year-old is lovable enough to get away with it. Almost as lovable as his green co-star.
