We won't know until December if writer-director J.J. Abrams can resuscitate the Star Wars saga that George Lucas ran into the ground (they are our only hope, it seems), but until the glorious/terrifying debut of The Force Awakens, why not hang with your fellow rebels, storm troopers, bots, and clones at the ultimate intergalactic party? On the roster are the new film's creators, as well as iconic favorites Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, Peter Mayhew (Chewbacca!), and Billy Dee Williams. There's also a horde of technical folks who'll talk about the sound and Special FX of Star Wars, story development and the future of the series. Get your pic with a star, and hang out in the Droid Builder's room and peruse the collector's tables for stellar memorabilia. A good time you will have, indeed.
