He probably did. He's just waiting in long lines. That or driving to Detroit to get the Skitch deals at Wal-mart.

C-3P0 Actor Unhappy About "Force" Secrecy

With 'Force Friday' underway and demand high for merchandise surrounding "Star Wars: The Force Awakens," it comes as no surprise that media reports regarding the franchise have been flying around thick and fast today. One such report that has garnered attention is a new interview with C-3PO actor Anthony Daniels.

Chatting with The Guardian, Daniels reveals he has not been happy about all the secrecy surrounding the film and the level of scrutiny he's under - which saw him getting chastised for a tweet during production:

"I said that I'd met so-and-so. An actor who plays a... thing in the film. A character. Immediately I received a message from Disney: 'Remove the tweet! You're not allowed to say that!' Honestly. It's a kind of Kremlin attitude.

Look, I know perfectly well not to tell you now what I'm giving you for a Christmas present because it would spoil the surprise. And these films are all about opening the box on Christmas Day.

The secrecy has been beyond ludicrous. For heaven's sake, it's a movie. When I got the script, it was typed in black on paper of the deepest red so you couldn't photocopy it. I got a hangover just reading it."

Daniels seems wearied by it all and isn't afraid to say things like he sees it including a frank assessment of the prequels: "the effects are clever but pointless. The skill is there, but so what? Coldness, that's the word. Bleakness, even." He's also not hugely sold on the new film either it seems: "When J.J. told me the story of the new one, my eyes sort of glazed over."

We'll find out for ourselves when "Star Wars: The Force

lol

Daniels told the newspaper how the role of C-3PO had come to dominate his career, so that he could hardly imagine playing another role now. He said he had deeply enjoyed working with “Episode VII” director J.J. Abrams, who he credited with a back-to-basics approach.

He said “Star Wars” creator George Lucas “has changed a lot over the years, but I think he finds it slightly hard to collaborate,” adding, “He made decisions that I believe might have been better discussed with other people. J.J. is more collaborative. He likes to listen.”

“The Force Awakens” recaptures the inspiration of the original film, he said. “It became clear early on that with J.J. we were getting back to the old-fashioned kind of film-making. We have walls. Actual sets!”

Nothin. I'm bluffing. I pre-ordered a book from Amazon that should be in my mailbox. I'm probably going to take the kids shortly. I need to go to the tailor, and it's next to Target.

Some stores were 100% sold out within hours.
