*sees someone say TLJ is about killing the past*
edit: I like the couple of folks in that thread verrrrry slooowly inching towards shifting the blame to Disney/Lucasfilm

The question is sort of a trick because the final scene where Vader and Palpatine are looking at the Death Star is obviously months later, but the rest of the movie appears to take place over a period of days.
What's interesting is that the upcoming Siege of Mandalore finale to Clone Wars might finally settle this question.

Hadn't thought of that last scene.... I don't think that is obviously months later but sure for sake of argument it could be. But yeah, the body of the movie takes place over days, that's my vote at least. The only thing that really is up to debate is Padme's pregnancy. She is clearly late in pregnancy in most scenes or it's sort of obscured with billowy gowns.
So to update my speculated schedule, including some additions I thought of earlier today:
End of May/Beginning of June: Vanity Fair cover story about The Rise of Skywalker.
June 8th: World gameplay premiere for Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order at EA Play, their E3 event.
June 9th: A "special first-look" at Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order at the Microsoft E3 Press Briefing
July 18th-21st: Possibly a Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker behind-the-scenes sizzle reel at San Diego Comic Con (though maybe not). Possibly more about The Mandalorian and Clone Wars and maybe some toy reveals for Triple Force Friday.
Middle of August: Entertainment Weekly cover story on The Rise of Skywalker
August 23rd-25th: If there was no Episode IX behind-the-scenes reel at Comic-Con, then it will be shown at Disney's D23 Expo. Maybe the first publically released trailer for The Mandalorian. And possibly the first real hints at the movies from David Benioff/D.B. Weiss and Rian Johnson,
End of August/Early September: Empire Magazine cover story on The Rise of Skywalker
October 14th or 21st: The full, theatrical trailer for The Rise of Skywalker debuts at halftime of a Monday Night Football Game. Tickets for the film go on sale immediately after (or, to go by previous movies, are accidentally put on sale before the game starts).
Middle of November: Another Entertainment Weekly cover story on The Rise of Skywalker*
End of November: Another Empire Magazine cover story on The Rise of Skywalker*
The second week of December: World Premiere of The Rise of Skywalker
* Could be moved due to the premiere of The Mandalorian around the same time.
I love Superbad, and still need to see Booksmart, but that movie isn't in the theaters I go to.
It's soooooo good.
It wouldn't surprise me if it becomes a big cult classic like a Superbad or Mean Girls.
Ha, ha, really? Damn. Sucks I have to wait but it should be worth it! Also Mean Girls is awesome.
Booksmart is a decade defining teen comedy. Along with the likes of Superbad and Mean Girls. I suspect it will have a LOOOOONG life on streaming/home video.
You should watch Nick of Time. It's a tight little thriller that takes place in 90 minutes real-time. Depp has 90 minutes to save his daughter and the movie is 90 minutes. A fun little concept.
Man, there's so many great "one day movies".
A New Hope is pretty much a coming-of-age teen comedy when you think about it 😉
It's worth every penny in my opinion. Been working through the audiobook on my commutes. Lots of fantastic backstory for Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon. It's especially cool to get a look at what the galaxy was like before Episode 1, a time period I'm personally very interested in.
I'd go with Master and Apprentice, even though it takes place later. It fleahes out Qui-Gon and Rael's relationship, which is more minimal in DJL.
Almost done, have it on loan from the library. 92% according to my Kindle. It's pretty good!
A nice little self contained story that gives depth to Jinn I didn't know I needed. It's almost like Ant Man and the Wasp in that regard - smaller scale focused story compared to the bigger things going on in the galaxy if that makes sense.
No way. Dude gets so much harassment and still goes out of his way to answer A LOT of questions on twitter.
No no not at all. Dude is awesome. He puts up with SOOOOOO much harassment but is always there to answer fan questions regardless.
I wonder how they handle international distribution of The Mandalorian..
The rest just have to wait till 2020+?

that would suck :(
I haven't seen any but granted I haven't been to my local Barnes and Noble in a minute. I really should go and snag one. This image is so godlike and unreal, I just cant believe this photo managed to get shot. I'm in love with it
Yeah it's pretty great.
If you liked her previous entries, then you'll like this one for sure.
The characters are pretty vivid and it made me retroactively care about Qui Gon.
I've been busting my ass for 5 months correctly predicting the marketing for Star Wars. Where's my Galaxy's Edge invite?!? :P

contrary to everyone else, the actual answer to this question is yes. Though I don't actually see anything dickish about his reply there.
Eagle-eyed fans have noted that its the same model of AT-AT that shows up in Rebels.
That R2 already out of stock.
Can still buy now at sale price and have order fulfilled when they restock
I wonder if it will even spin in game, I wouldn't be surprised if they just treat it like a regular staff.
Watching the latest Star Wars show. Guys. There's a milk stand that serves both blue and green milk.
Galaxy's Edge is officially the best.
