Rogue One A Star Wars Story blew up the box office pulling in over a billion dollars! Because Disney didn't make quite as much as they should and also because I can't stop buying Star Wars movies I am going to pickup Rogue One when it hits video. There are a couple options on the table for how you can pick it up and I felt it was worth a bit of time to discuss our options.

If you want to get the new movie but can't stand buying physical copies you might want to pickup Rogue One March 24th. I still don't quite get why people do this as nearly all Bluray releases contain a digital copy, but if you don't want to add to the landfill going digital is the best way to go.

If you're like me and still enjoy opening the actual movie, putting the disc in the tray and realizing you could be saving your time by just streaming it you will be getting it on Bluray on April 4th. You can't go wrong with any of the versions available at stores but the special ultra-cool collectors edition is at Target you might want to look into. When Target got the special version with extra behind the scenes extras for Force Awakens that content was digital only and not available on a packin disc. This really sucked and many people complained so it seems Disney has listened and Target is getting an exclusive 5-disc set includes collectible packaging with interchangeable character covers and exclusive bonus content.

Blu-ray: Amazon because I am lazy.

I haven't seen it, so I might try to rent it via Amazon Video. I already have a few other movies on my list to rent such as "Arrival" and "Doctor Strange."

Also, I saw a trailer today for Star Wars VIII and the movie is coming out in December.

I'm definitely getting Rogue One at Target. Gotta get those extra special features!

Oh, I was trolling. I thought GregoPeck was too. Did not know about the fake trailer.

My guess is a full blown episode VIII teaser trailer will be out at Star Wars Celebration and they will announce The original Mew Hope film cut on 4K release details.

Wow, I had no idea.

In my defense, I found the trailer on Facebook, a friend posted it in a private group. Although, I could have checked YouTube or other links to verify it.

Yeah it's well done!

You're right though, it's coming out in December.
