Just like L3 says to Lando in “Solo: A Star Wars Story”, “I’m so glad we took this job!” You have all seen all of the commercials. Let me remind you that SOLO is finally on DVD and Blu-ray and you can own it today. I saw the movie in 4D with a moving seat and lots of distractions. I knew right away that when this movie comes out on DVD, that my family must own it. So what is better than having the ultimate movie night watch party! I thought that today I would share some tips with you! This post is sponsored and products were provided for me to share.
Star Wars movies, aren’t like every other movie. Especially in my house, because everyone in our family owns Star Wars gear and toys!
Decorations:
Decorate for your watch party, even if you don’t have company…enjoy your family’s company. Gather all of the toys, collectibles, light sabers that you own and set them around your viewing room! We love our new Ultimate Co-Pilot Chewbacca and Solo Home Entertainment Figure 4-Pack! Our fun Chewbacca Masks are so much fun to wear but are a total distraction from the movie itself. I say decorate with them. I plan to wear mine to work this week for our themed “character” day!
Get Comfy:
Grab the pillows and blankets and lay them all over the room! If it is chilly, turn on the fire place. We love our Chewie Pillow and Chewie Blanket!
I totally plan to wear my “Chewie is my Co-pilot” pajamas!
The Food:
Our family loves our Millennium Falcon Waffle Maker from Uncanny! The replica is so good, you might think it is going to take off! We whipped up some Belgium Waffle mix and in just a few minutes we had fluffy and delicious waffles to enjoy! We love breakfast for dinner, so this is by far the best movie watching meal we have!
Also popcorn is good for every occasion! The studio sent us some Solo popcorn!
Post Movie:
We have our Star Wars games ready to go! Han Solo Card Game and our Han Solo Monopoly! Our family loves playing games and it is always a fun day to get the kids away from their iPad games.
If you don’t have time for the board games, perhaps your family is like mine and we really enjoy shooting nerfs at each other! Check out the Han Solo Nerf Blaster!
The Movie:
You can FINALLY own SOLO: A Star Wars Story on DVD and Blu-ray! Get your copy today! In the movie Alden Ehrenreich, Donald Glover, and Joonas Suotamo just totally rock as Han Solo, Lando Calrissian, and Chewbacca! They were just so good in the movie. If you haven’t read our full movie review, Myla and I both reviewed it!

I love having family movie parties. The waffle iron is awesome! We have a marvel themed waffle maker. Thanks for sharing some great ideas for a star wars movie party.
