In the forthcoming Disney+ special, LEGO Star Wars Summer Vacation, a LEGO version of Weird Al performs a new song called “Scarif Beach Party.” In theory, this is a slightly macabre reference to the Battle of Scarif in Rogue One. After all, Jyn Erso and Cassian Andor didn’t make it out alive from their Scarif Beach Party. Gotta love Weird Al, bringing back dark jokes for kids. We only get a snippet of the song in the new trailer for the special, but it already sounds kind of awesome? Watch the trailer here.
LEGO Star Wars Summer Vacation Trailer
Disney+ dropped the new trailer for LEGO Star Wars Summer Vacation on June 21, 2022. And as Star Wars LEGO specials go, this new Summer Vacation thing looks like a solid one to watch with the whole family. Obi-Wan Kenobi is rocking a kind of Jimmy Buffet look, while the entire plot seems focused on Finn, Rey, Poe, and (somehow!) Ben Solo, all getting together for one last summer before they graduate. Or something. Meanwhile, Darth Vader and the Emperor are chilling at the beach, which feels sort of like what it’s like for parents to go to the beach all the time. Are you the Emperor or the Vader of this cranky beach couple?
