May the 4th Star Wars Day LA

If you want to celebrate Star Wars, like we haven't done that or do that all the time, then head to Disneyland for a special May the 4th event.

From the Disney Parks Blog:
Head over to Tomorrowland Theater for a special screening of an episode from the hit Disney XD animated series, Star Wars Rebels. In the fan-favorite episode, “Shroud of Darkness,” Kanan, Ezra and Ahsoka return to the Jedi Temple on Lothal to find out how the Inquisitors have continually been able to track the rebels. Seeking the advice of Yoda, voiced by Frank Oz, the three will experience powerful visions that reveal the future, the past and old friends long gone.
Jedi and Sith alike can find special commemorative merchandise and all-new Star Wars collector glasses. And be sure to capture your memories from the day at a unique, themed photo location.
Then the party jumps into lightspeed at 6 p.m. at the Galactic Grill Stage with a fan celebration, where Star Wars trivia and other special surprises will take place throughout the evening.

It'll also be the first day to buy tickets for the trilogy screening of the original Star Wars films at the Ace Hotel through Drafhouse at ReturnOfTheTrilogy.com. You won't get to see the films until Aug 6th. Sadly, it's in the 1997 re-release format so get ready for a bunch of CGI garbage dominating the scenes.
