On a scale from 1-10, I'm at 11. The trailers look incredible but my excitement is somewhat tempered by just how bad the sequels were.
Ideas for challenges:
Rank Star Wars Characters from worst to best. Jar Jar is sure to be worst but I'm interested in who is best and where does Boba Fett end up (I've never understood the fascination with him).
Match the monster and their name
Star Wars trivia; What is a Nerfherder? How big is a womp rat?
Count the midi-chlorians (I've heard that there are no midi-chlorians in the new movie)
"Which Star Wars Character Would You Follow?" set against a business scenario backdrop. Would you follow Chewie's approach and roar at the customer before attempting to pull a limb off? etc.
Character ranking!!! Yes! It could be a sorting activity with drag-and-drop to rank characters. We'll just hard code Jar Jar at the bottom because... Because Jar Jar.
Matching games? Shweet! Let's find out who the true geeks are!
Okay there are way too many amazing suggestions already. I think we should just leave it open and let everyone choose their own approach.
Please keep the ideas coming in! I'll include what you share in the challenge post. I'll post the week before the release. This means our Star Wars challenge will begin Friday December 11:-)
Update: This challenge is officially in the editorial queue!
If you have any more suggestions for challenge ideas, please share them. Otherwise, consider this an early bird announcement to begin thinking about your projects!
The challenge will post first thing in the morning on December 11th:-)
Ok, I just tried the quiz on vintage Star War toys and was sent back to Star Wars Basic Training camp. I'm wondering what place there is in this Challenge for someone like me who obviously remembers very, very little about Star Wars? Maybe a "Prepare the Star Wars Newbie to see the Movie?" Hmmmm.....

All my ideas for now :)

Oh man those are great, Eric! I like the idea of an "Escape the room" for Chewie in the cookie jar.. or help him break in! Either way works.
Who shot first! Sliders? Labeled graphics? Zoom region? Come on! That totally works.

Oh yes! Leadership scenarios with Star Wars characters. Is Ben Kenobi the one you'd always follow? Certainly Han has some good instincts, too?
These are fantastic ideas!
Or what is your leadership style? Are you Darth Vader, Princess Amidala, Admiral Ackbar, or Senator Palpatine?
