Report
Upholding the longstanding tradition of attending midnight screenings of the recent Star Wars films, that tradition came to an end (for now) with the final chapter of the most recent Star Wars trilogy, Rise of Skywalker. Organised again by Star Walking Inc., members from the various Star Wars costume groups (501st Knightfall Garrison, Rebel Legion and Mando Mercs) mingled amongst the crowd of SW fanatics, some of whom were also wearing their own costumes, which included two Wookiees, a very young Rey, a Sith Trooper and a Twi’lek. At the start of the troop it was relatively quiet crowd-wise, but as midnight grew closer the crowd multiplied, and you could see why, given that the screening was almost fully packed. It was a very late night and quite a warm one to be wearing costumes (30°C+, though thankfully it was at least airconditioned inside the cinema complex!) but overall it was a relaxed and fun event.
(Apologies if I’ve omitted anyone from the troop list. Let me know if I’ve missed you and I’ll add you in.)
