I am beyond thrilled to see the new She-Ra and the Princesses of Power trailer for many reasons. I watched the original show back when I was a kid and the nostalgia is great. I am enjoying the jokes I see in the trailer. Eva and Andrew watched the trailer with me and they were excited. I love finding shows that the three of us can watch together and the last and most important reason is Aimee Carrero, the voice of She-Ra. I met and interviewed her four years ago when she was doing promo for Young and Hungry. She was wonderful to talk to and I even took a photo with her that day. I am excited to see what she does with the character.
The New York Comic Con is happening and during it the new trailer for the show debuted and there were a few actors and actresses from the show on hand along with the show’s creator Noelle Stevenson. Below is a press release about what is happening at the She-Ra booth and what happened at the panel. I am going to have to take exception to what was reported regarding that the crowd was shouting. The release scrambles the battle cry of He-Man and She-Ra into one. He-Man says, “By the Power of Grayskull!” She-Ra says, “For the Honor of Grayskull!”. The press release says that the crowd was shouting “For the Power of Grayskull”. Nope, that did not happen, not with a whole room full of She-Ra fans. No way! Watch the trailer below and you will know She-Ra’s battle cry. I for one am still trying to figure out how they are going to explain Grayskull in the show when there is no He-Man, Eternia, The Sorceress or Castle Grayskull.
We were quite fortunate that Disney sent us a massive box of Solo: A Star Wars Story toys games and more to host a movie night! This post is a bit late because our box got a bit hung up in Hyperspace. It did not make the Kessel Run in less than 14 parsecs. But it arrived an it was filled with some amazing items!! So many cool toys from Hasbro and also a Chewbacca Snug—, er I mean blanket with sleeves. Popcorn and a copy of the movie on Blu-ray rounded out the fantastic items! The kids and I unboxed that massive box of things from Disney to show you. You can see it below.
Eva and I have already seen the movie but Andrew and Allison have not. When we get a free night we will all watch the movie together and take along our new Ultimate Co-Pilot Chewie, some Chewbacca Masks and even a copy of the Sabacc game from the movie. We can even get into blaster fights with the Nerf Han Solo blaster. We got two of them! I think we are one Chewbacca mask away from having the whole family about to wear them at one time.
The Blu-ray has a bunch of extras included, over an hour’s worth. One of the things is a featurette called Kasdan on Kasdan. Iconic Star Wars screenwriter Lawrence Kasdan and son Jonathan share what it was like to write the movie’s script together. Here is a clip of that.
There is so much more included. You can discover it all on your own but to help further enjoy the movie night I have a few things that you can download like Activity Sheets, Recipes and more! Click the images below to download the files to print at home.
