STAR WARS: The Rise of Skywalker
by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor The press screening for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker was at 1pm in the middle of the day on a Tuesday, for those of us who run movie sites on the side, but need to clothe, shelter and feed ourselves, that’s the worst possible time, if it were in the morning, I could take half a day, if it were late afternoon I could take half a day, but to take a full vacation day to see Star Wars was not happening as I’m not a huge Star Wars person, I love sci-fi, fantasy, action for which this falls into, but truthfully, I’ve always…
