The Star Wars Cash Grab!
If you want to rent the original Star Wars series from Apple TV or Google, you’re out of luck! No streaming on Netflix, either. Nope, it’s going to be $59.97 to buy the series in a digital format.
The cash grab (n.) reaching for the easy money.
Yesterday, I was happy to search the basement for the VHS player and Natalie’s Star Wars VHS box set to start our marathon in preparation; but I can’t help but wonder if that billion dollars earned from the Phantom Menace wasn’t enough money to take a risk.
Does it seem risky to offer the old catalogue for free on streaming, for a limited time, as a thank you to the families and fans that have supported the brand over three decades?
Either way, the Vial/Burg house is excited for The Force Awakens’s opening weekend, or whenever we find a babysitter, so no spoilers please!
The Force is strong with this one!
