Over the next few days we'll be bringing you all the news and fun from Star Wars Celebration Orlando. Keep track of the goings on here and on our social media. 

Day Two - Friday April 14
Joining the Dark Side this morning with my dark roast @Wawa coffee to get me started on day 2

​I have to say that even with the west lot full, parking in north/south lots at @OCCC with the free shuttles has been super easy.
Picture
​It's amazing how the line situation has changed since yesterday. Today it is light years better!

​Current wristband availablity.
Picture
I​t's kind of unclear which line is which.

​Finally found the right line to get to the show floor. Getting inside @OCCC was much better than yesterday but indoor lines are worse today

​The aftermath of the overnight queue.

Well we didn't get into the Last Jedi panel but they'll be showing it on a screen on the show floor. 
Picture
In case you live under a rock, here is the first teaser trailer for The Last Jedi. 

After you watch it, watch it again with headphones, there are so many amazing audio cues in this trailer, which probably tells more of what's coming than the visuals do. Trust us. 
Also, some stills from the trailer courtesy of LucasFilm. 
And seriously, does it get any better than this poster? 
Picture
Scott also created a couple of phone wallpapers of the poster, feel free to download them.
