Six of my Favorite Quotes from Rogue One and our Digital Viewing/Party Experience
This past Sunday I spent the night checking out Rogue One on DigitalHD thanks to Walt Disney Home Entertainment and Roku. I received a special Rogue One Digital Party kit that included a Roku Stick for viewing our digital copy of the film.
While watching the film I participated in a fun Twitter party with fellow bloggers. We were placed on different teams and engaged in a friendly battle. I was on #TeamRebel and the other team was #TeamEmpire. We had fun battling it out throughout the movie, by posting our favorite quotes and gifs.
I have to say that #TeamEmpire came prepared to throw down. They gave #TeamRebel a run for their money, but in the end, we were victorious. While posting the quotes it made me think of all my favorite quotes from the film. I wanted to share some of those favorites with you.

Our Digital Viewing Experience
To get ready for the party I created a fun snack station for my family to enjoy some goodies while were watching the film. I created some fun and easy labels to apply water bottles. They helped give our party a little more personalization.
I started to make popcorn so the kids could snack on. It was perfect because they could mix in the different candy into the plain popcorn. In addition to the regular popcorn, I made some Old Fashion Candy Popcorn.
We had a great time watching the movie and enjoying our snacks. I really enjoyed the live viewing Twitter party with my fellow bloggers. It was another great way to enjoy the film with them as well. Rogue One: A Stay Wars Story is available on DigitalHD now, and is coming to Blu-ray and DVD on April 4th.
